Divorced. By Robert F. Marasco, 27, former U.S. Army captain who was alleged to have been the "triggerman" in the recently dismissed Green Beret murder case in Viet Nam: Denise Marasco, 25; on grounds of incompatibility; after 6 1/2 years of marriage, no children; in Juarez, Mexico.

Died. Mongi Slim, 61, Tunisian diplomat who in 1961 became the first African to be elected president of the U.N. General Assembly; of liver disease; in Tunis. A onetime revolutionary who was twice jailed by the French during his country's struggle for freedom, Slim nevertheless ranked as one of Africa's more moderate, pro-Western diplomats. With Tunisia's independence in 1956 he became simultaneously Ambassador to the U.S., Ambassador to Canada and Tunisia's permanent representative to the U.N.; in 1961, by a vote of 96-0, he was elected president of the General Assembly and for the next year labored diligently to bridge the gap between East and West.
Died. Armand ("Al") Weill, 75, controversial prizefight matchmaker and manager who guided Rocky Marciano to the world's heavyweight title; of heart disease; in Miami. Of all the boxing figures of the '30s and '40s, few were more hated than the conniving, cigar-chewing Weill, who often used his matchmaking jobs to further the careers of fighters he managed. He had four world champions over the years, ending with Marciano, whom he picked up as an unknown in 1948 and secretly handled until 1952, when he became the Brockton Blockbuster's official manager.
