Died. Susan Glaspell, 66, little-theater pioneer, novelist, and Pulitzer Prizewinning playwright (Alison's House, 1930); of virus pneumonia; in Provincetown, Mass.

Died. James Eli ("Sunny Jim") Watson, 84, brass-lunged Old Guard Republican Senator from Indiana (1916-32) and Senate majority leader under Herbert Hoover; in Washington.

After the Democratic landslide of 1932 he retired to private law practice and a vociferous back seat in his party. His favorite and most printable partisan aphorism: "Hell is the final home of the Democratic Party."
