Born. To President-elect John Fitzgerald Kennedy, 43, and Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy, 31: their second child, first son; in Washington. Name: John Fitzgerald Kennedy Jr. Weight: 6 Ibs. 3 oz. (see NATIONAL AFFAIRS).

Married. Debbie Reynolds, 28, Eddie Fisher's ex; and Harry Karl, 46, millionaire shoe manufacturer who has trouble keeping his laces tied--he married and divorced Hollywood's Marie ("The Body") McDonald twice, stayed married to Cinemogul Harry Conn's widow for 23 days; she for the second time, he for the fourth; in Hollywood.

Died. General Phao Sriyanond, 52, one of a triumvirate that toppled the Thailand regime in 1947 (a second member, Field Marshal Sarit Thanarat, still rules the country), who frequently consulted astrologists while enhancing his twin sources of Siamese power--at least 20 prosperous business ventures, a 40,000-man national police force more powerful than the army; of a heart attack; in exile in Geneva.

Died. Victor Emanuel, 62, a flamboyant operator from Dayton (AVCO, Republic Steel Corp.) and Government adviser (Aircraft Production Council, advisory committee of U.S. Senate Banking and Currency Committee), who liked to put knowledgeable Washingtonians, e.g., Presidential Crony George Allen, on his boards of directors; of a heart attack; in Ithaca, N.Y. The Depression wiped out a billion dollar utility empire, but Financier Emanuel bounced back as high as ever.

Died. Kyle S. Crichton, 64, writer and editor who once turned out social significance with his left hand (as an editor of the Communist New Masses under the name Robert Forsythe) and social insignificance (as an editor of Collier's under his own name) with his other hand; of a heart attack; in New York. A sponsor of literary pink teas during the '30s, Crichton's political sympathies were shattered by the Stalin-Hitler pact. Turning from somber Karl Marxism to zany Marx Brotherism, he biographed Groucho et al, along with other nonpoliticos such as Rise Stevens, Philadelphia Banker Anthony Joseph Drexel Biddle (whose career he transformed into the Broadway hit, The Happiest Millionaire).

Died. Electra Havemeyer Webb, 72, founder of the Webb Gallery of American Art (TIME, Aug. 15) in Shelburne, Vt., which houses 200 American masterworks (John Singleton Copley, Winslow Homer) in a colonial-furnished museum reached by a covered bridge; of a brain hemorrhage; in Burlington. Mrs. Webb was the daughter of the Henry O. Havemeyers, who were bemused by their daughter's interest in Americana, since they themselves had amassed a multimillion-dollar collection of European masters.
