Marriage Revealed. Thubten Jigme Norbu, 38, articulate eldest brother of Tibet's Dalai Lama, who came to the U.S. in 1951, is now working with University of Washington scholars on a cultural research project on Tibet; and Kunchok Sakyapa, 16, a Seattle junior high school student and member of a family ennobled by Kublai Khan in the 13th century, who escaped from Tibet in 1959, one week after the Dalai Lama; both for the first time; in Bothell, Wash., April 8.

Died. Henry J. Kaiser Jr., 44, lanky vice president and director of his father's steel, aluminum and auto empire, who, first stricken by multiple sclerosis in 1944, defied orders to rest ("This to me was like a sentence to a living death"), kept on working even after he was confined to a wheelchair; in Oakland, Calif.

Died. Robert Ezra McCann, 60, China-born auto dealer who spent ten years in Chinese Communist prisons on trumped-up espionage charges, was released last month after his wife Flora learned he was dying and rushed to Tientsin to plead for his freedom; of cancer; at Clark Air Force Base, Philippine Islands.

Died. Anita Stewart, 65, Brooklyn-born star of such silent films as The Goddess, a redhaired, brown-eyed beauty who never lost her looks, yet once dismissed sex appeal with the comment: "Oomph! How I hate that word!"; apparently of a heart attack; in Beverly Hills, Calif.

Died. Harry Falconer McLean, 78, boisterous, eccentric Canadian construction king, the fabled "Mr. X" who once dumped $5,000 in silver and small bills out of his hotel window, handed out $100 bills to soldiers and chambermaids, $1,000 and $2,000 checks to bellhops and cabbies because "I like to see people happy," and was swamped with 27,000 marriage proposals (he ignored them all, was married twice, to other women); of a stroke; in Merrickville, Ont. A 6-ft., 200-lb. bear of a man whose tastes ran to torpedo-sized cigars, buffalo-skin coats and liquor, U.S.-born McLean began as a water boy for a railroad construction company, went on to gross $400 million by damming the Abitibi River, pushing railroads to remote Canadian towns, helping link the Catskill watershed to New York City.

Died. Carl Elias Milliken, 83, somber Prohibitionist who served from 1917 to 1921 as Maine's first fulltime Governor (his predecessors rarely devoted more than a couple of days each month to the job), a onetime president of the American Baptist Foreign Missionary Society who later became secretary of the Motion Picture Producers and Distributors of America and turned against the "pulpiteers" who attacked "improper" movies; of cancer; in Springfield, Mass.
