Married. Romy Schneider, 27, Austria's sugar-and-ice gift to the movies (Boccaccio 70); and Harry Haubenstock, 44, German actor-director; he for the second time; in St.-Jean-Cap-Ferrat, France.

Married. Brigitte Bardot, 31, prototype cat for Europe's sex kittens; and Gunter Sachs von Opel, 33, heir to a West German ball-bearing fortune and one of the Continent's best-known hedonists; she for the third time, he for the second; in Las Vegas.

Married. William O. Douglas, 67, U.S. Supreme Court Justice; and Cathleen Curran Heffernan, 23, a senior at Portland, Ore.'s Roman Catholic Marylhurst College, he for the fourth time; in Encino, Calif., just three weeks after his divorce from his third wife, Joan Martin, 26, and three days after Joan announced her own remarriage, to Roger Nicholson, 27, director of an exclusive Rocky Mountain boys' camp.

Died. Sy Devore, 57, Hollywood tailor who designed status-symbol clothes for those who had arrived, charging Jerry Lewis $300 for a cognac-colored dinner jacket, and William Holden $200 for a silk jump suit, best known as the creator of what he called "the Ail-American Suit," a $350 set of threads honed down to essentials—no cuffs, no belt, no handkerchief pocket; of a heart attack; in Beverly Hills, Calif.

Died. William Parker, 64, a tough, abstemious career cop who earned a night school law degree and rose in the Los Angeles Police Department to become its chief in 1950, a post in which he built one of the finest, most efficient forces in the U.S. but became a target of criticism from Negro and other minority groups that reached a crescendo during his handling of the Watts riots last year; of a heart ailment; in Los Angeles.

Died. Malvina Hoffman, 79, long America's foremost woman sculptor, a Rodin student whose deft-but-not-dar ing work used to be so popular that she was able to choose from a stream of lucrative commissions, most notably in 1930 when Chicago's Field Museum of Natural History asked her to portray all the races of mankind, a project that sent her around the world posing ethnic types from Senegal to the Solomons and resulted in 101 true-to-life bronze figures; of a heart attack; in Manhattan.

Died. General Andrew G. L. McNaughton, 79, Canada's foremost soldier, respected scientist and diplomat; of a heart attack; in Montebello, Que. McNaughton's intense belief in independent Canadian nationhood overlaid everything he did, whether serving as president of his country's National Research Council (1935-39), or sitting as a member of the Atomic Energy Commission (1946). But Canadians know him best as the World War II commander of Canadian troops in Europe, who bitterly disputed Allied plans to commit his men piecemeal, arguing that his divisions should form a single force "pointed at the heart of Berlin." McNaughton lost the fight, but won the hearts of Canadian patriots.
