Monday, Dec. 15, 1952

Born. To Rocco Francis Marchegiano ("Rocky Marciano"), 29, world heavyweight boxing champion, and Barbara Cousins Marchegiano, 24: their first child, a daughter; in Brockton, Mass. Name: Mary Anne. Weight: 6 Ibs. 12 oz.

Married. Pamela Gordon, 34, painter daughter of the late Gertrude Lawrence; and Robert Clatworthy, 24, British sculptor; she for the second time, he for the first; in a civil ceremony (the bride wore her mother's "favorite dress"); in London.

Married. Prince Muazzam Jah, 43, second son of the Nizam ("richest man in the world") of Hyderabad; and Sahebzadi Anwar Begum, 18, daughter of a wealthy Indian landowner; he for the second time (his first: Princess Niloufer ["Blue Lotus"] of Turkey), she for the first; in his father's King Kothi palace; in Hyderabad.

Married. Alberto Fabiani, 40, and Simonetta Visconti, 30, Italy's two leading fashion designers (his specialty, daytime and cocktail wear; hers, play clothes and tailored suits); both for the second time; after years of friendly professional rivalry; in Rome.

Married. Robert Penn Warren, 47, poet and Pulitzer-Prizewinning novelist (Night Rider, All the King's Men); and Eleanor Clark, 39, author (The Bitter Box, Rome and a Villa); he for the second time, she for the first; in Roxbury, Conn.

Died. Dr. Karen Homey, 67, German-born psychoanalyst-author (The Neurotic Personality of Our Time, Our Inner Conflicts), part founder (in 1941) and dean of the American Institute for Psychoanalysis; in Manhattan. A specialist on neuroses and how they grow ("A perfectly normal person is rare in our civilization"), she disputed Freud's belief that thwarted basic drives are the cause of all mental ills, maintained that pinched emotions were more often due to contradictory values in society. She predicted that in the U.S. the conflicting goals of success-through-competition and Christian unselfishness would cause a plague of psychic quirks and kinks in coming generations. Her advice: a man should be "truthful to himself," develop an inner moral code, and relate himself to others in "a spirit of mutuality."

Died. Dr. Giuseppe Antonio Borgese, 70, anti-Fascist Italian-born author (Goliath, the March of Fascism; Common Cause) and longtime (1936-48) professor of Italian literature at the University of Chicago; of a cerebral thrombosis; in Fiesole, Italy. A tireless booster of the League of Nations, he became disillusioned after its failure, decided that nothing short of true world government would work. He regarded the U.N. with pity, called it "a child growing up in an iron lung" because it was not based on the abolition of political boundaries.

Died. James ("Big Jim") Norris, 73, president of Chicago's Norris Grain Co. and famed sportsman; in Chicago. Long a hockey enthusiast, he founded the old Chicago Shamrocks, owned the Detroit Red Wings, was part owner of five of the biggest arena corporations in the U.S. (Chicago Stadium, Madison Square Garden, St. Louis Arena, Indianapolis Coliseum, Detroit's Olympia Stadium).

Died. Milan Grol, 76, pre-World War II leader of Yugoslavia's Democratic party; in Belgrade. In 1945 he returned from wartime exile in London, became a titular Vice Premier, but with no actual power. When he realized that Tito was using his name as a liberal "front" while actually tightening the reins of dictatorship, he predicted gloomily that the Communists would wreck the country.

Died. Madge Gates Wallace, 90, mother-in-law of President Harry Truman; at the White House in Washington. A staid member of one of the leading families of Independence, Mo., she looked on Harry Truman's early political career with misgivings, spent much time in her later years at the White House and Blair House, but never became completely reconciled to politics or politicians. As recently as 1948 she refused to allow the President's political friends in the living room of the Truman home (which she owned) in Independence, but let a few of them sit in a small parlor in the back of the house.
