Born. To Sweden's Queen Silvia, 33, commoner daughter of a West German businessman, and King Carl XVI Gustaf, 31: their first child, a daughter; in Stockholm. Name: Victoria. The first child born to a reigning Swedish king and queen in 178 years, Victoria can inherit the crown only if Sweden's constitution is revised to allow a female to become monarch.

Married. Princess Alia of Jordan. 21, for whom the Jordanian national airline was named by her father, King Hussein; and Nasser Wasfi Mirza, 32, a member of the royal Cabinet; both for the first time; near Amman.

Married. Michael A. Bilandic, 54, shrewd, bland mayor of Chicago who was groomed by the late Richard Daley to succeed him; and wealthy Socialite Heather Morgan, 34, outgoing executive director of the Chicago Council on Fine Arts; both for the first time; in Chicago.

Divorced. Christina Onassis, 26, daughter of Aristotle Onassis and principal heir to his multimillion-dollar shipping fortune; and her second husband, Alexander Andreadis, 32, heir apparent to his father's banking and industrial empire; after two years of marriage; in Athens.

Died. Loren Corey Eiseley, 69, maverick anthropologist, educator and author (The Immense Journey, Darwin's Century); of cardiac arrest; in Philadelphia. Eiseley taught for 30 years at the University of Pennsylvania, but his poetic writing, which bridged the gap between art and science, won him a wide audience outside the scholarly world. Although reconciled to the fact that "there is but one way into the future: the technological way," Eiseley's lyric musings harkened back to humanity's primal origins and the wisdom in fairy tales. Man's "basic and oldest characteristic," he wrote, is "that he is a creature of memory, a bridge into the future, a time binder. Without this recognition of continuity, love and understanding between the generations becomes impossible."

Died. Alice Paul, 92, longtime crusader for women's rights and shaper of the proposed Equal Rights Amendment to the Constitution; in Moorestown, N.J. After successfully lobbying for the adoption of the Woman Suffrage Amendment--she was thrown into jail in 1917 for leading a parade of bloomer-clad suffragists in front of the White House--Paul in 1923 helped draft a prototype of the current Equal Rights Amendment and spent more than 50 years pressing for its ratification.
