Married. Milton R. Young, 72, Republican Senator from North Dakota since 1945; and Patricia Byrne, his secretary for 24 years; he for the second time; in a Roman Catholic ceremony at Arlington, Va.

Died. Salvatore Baccaloni, 69, basso buffo of the Metropolitan Opera from 1940 to 1962; of heart disease; in Manhattan. His keen sense of timing, his magnificent voice and even grander physique (320 lbs.) gained Baccaloni a reputation as "the greatest scene stealer in the business." Toscanini discovered him in Italy in 1925, and the young giant packed houses around the world before coming to the Met to appear in such roles as Don Pasquale, Doctor Bartolo and Fra Melitone.

Died. Neil MacNeil, 78, author and assistant night managing editor of the New York Times from 1930 to 1951; of uremic poisoning; in Southampton, N.Y. MacNeil was one of the paper's key executives during his 21 years on the night news desk, where he determined what news was fit to print and how prominently. Among his books were An American Peace, which foreshadowed the Marshall Plan, and Without Fear or Favor, a classic study of big-city journalism. After retiring from the Times in 1951, he became co-author of The Hoover Report, 1953-1955.

Died. Josef Hromadka, 80, Czechoslovak theologian and proponent of Christian-Communist entente; of a heart attack; in Prague. For years, Soviet Communism had no stronger Protestant advocate than Hromadka. Even so, he argued that, because Marxist-Leninist doctrine did not answer the ultimate questions of life, Christianity might eventually transform Communism. But the Soviet invasion of Czechoslovakia in 1968 dashed all his hopes. "My deepest feeling is of disillusionment, sorrow and shame," he wrote, before resigning from the Prague-based Christian Peace Conference, which he had founded in 1958.

Died. Theodor Reik, 81, psychoanalyst, author, and protege of Sigmund Freud; of heart disease; in New York. Part of Freud's small coterie in pre-World War I Vienna, Reik was one of his principal defenders in later years, expanding on classical Freudian theory in his 50 books. Masochism in Modern Man, his masterwork, proposed that the masochist is basically a pleasure seeker, whose outward need for humiliation expresses a more basic desire to be loved. In all his works, Reik displayed a refreshing freedom from technical jargon, as in Of Love and Lust, where he wrote: "It would be superfluous to tell woman that the proper study of mankind is man. She will never be interested in anything else."
