BORN. To Ursula Andress, 44, Swiss-born film star, and Harry Hamlin, 28, film and television actor (Movie Movie, Studs Lonigan): a son, their first child; in Los Angeles. Said Andress: "Better late than never."

MARRIED. Mario Thomas, 42, stage, screen and television actress (That Girl), and crusader for the feminist cause; and Phil Donahue, 44, popular TV talk-show host and recent bestselling autobiographer (Donahue, My Own Story): she for the first time, he for the second; in Beverly Hills, at the home of the bride's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Danny Thomas.

MARRIED. Edward Villella, 43, longtime star of the New York City Ballet; and Linda Carbonetto, 31, Canadian national figure skating champion in 1969, Ice Capades performer, now a figure skating teacher; both for the second time; in New York City.

SEEKING DIVORCE. Anita Bryant, 40, singer and purveyor of orange juice, whose secular concert career has suffered in recent years because of her strident campaigns against gay rights; and Bob Green, former disc jockey and until now her manager; after 20 years of marriage, four children; in Miami Beach. Bryant claimed that Green had "violated my very conscience," by cooperating with "certain hired staff members" who she said were trading on her reputation for their personal gain.

DIED. Ida Kaminska, 80, longtime star of the classic Yiddish theater and best known to a wider audience for her role in the Oscar-winning Czech film The Shop on Main Street (1965); in New York City. Born to actor parents who had their own company in Warsaw, Kaminska made her stage debut at four, began directing at 17, and, with her first husband, Zygmund Turkow, founded the Warsaw Yiddish Art Theater. She fled the Nazi invasion in 1939, but returned after the war to reorganize her theater. With Polish government support, her troupe gained international renown, but officially inspired "anti-Zionist" attacks following the 1967 Middle East war forced her to emigrate to the U.S. She remained active on the stage and in films (The Angel Levine) and never abandoned her dream of rebuilding Yiddish theater as a repository of Jewish culture.

DIED. Carl Ebert, 93, German-born opera manager and stage director; in Santa Monica, Calif. Originally an actor, Ebert moved into the then relatively new field of opera management in Darmstadt in 1927, with as his assistant Rudolf Bing, who later went on to run New York City's Metropolitan Opera for 22 years. Later, Ebert helped found the Glyndebourne Opera Festival and led the Berlin Municipal Opera before and after the Hitler era (which he spent in Britain and the U.S.) until his retirement in 1961.
