Married. Jonathan Scranton Linen, 26, administrative assistant with the American Express Co. and son of James A. Linen, Chairman of the Executive Committee of Time Inc.; and Leila Haven Jones, 27, an editorial researcher at Reader's Digest and daughter of Gilbert E. Jones, board chairman of the IBM World Trade Corp.; in an Episcopal ceremony in Greenwich, Conn.

Died. Jimi Hendrix, 27, Seattle-born rock superstar whose grating, bluesy voice, screechy, pulsating guitar solos and pelvis-pumping stage antics conveyed both a turned-on, fetid sense of eroticism and, at best, a reverberated musical equivalent of the urban black's anguished spirit; apparently of an overdose of drugs; in London.

Died. Noel Haviland Field, 66, sometime U.S. State Department official (1926-36) and a mysterious figure in cold war politics; in Budapest. Urbane and multilingual, the London-born, Harvard-educated descendant of an American Quaker family left State in 1936 to work for the League of Nations, and later became wartime European head of the Unitarian Service Committee's relief activities. Fired from that post because of allegations that he was sympathetic to Communists, Field went to Prague, and three weeks before the beginning of the Alger Hiss trial was abducted to Hungary by Communist agents. He was stigmatized by assorted Iron Curtain regimes as a wartime spy for the U.S. Office of Strategic Services, but for reasons not made clear, he was never brought to trial. Until his death he worked as a copyreader for the government's foreign-language publishing house in Budapest.

Died. Dr. Rudolf Carnap, 79, one of the 20th century's most influential philosophers; of peritonitis; in Santa Monica, Calif. A member of the so-called "Vienna Circle" of philosophers and mathematicians that flourished during the late '20s and early '30s, Carnap was a founder of the school of thought known as logical positivism. The traditional areas of philosophy, such as metaphysics, ethics and aesthetics, he dismissed as "meaningless" because their statements could not be empirically verified, and were based on "emotional needs, not on intellectual concepts."

Died. Morris ("Two-Gun") Cohen, 81, beefy, swaggering, London-born raconteur and sometime Canadian ranch hand who served for several years as bodyguard to Chinese Republican Leader Sun Yatsen, became a general of the Kuomintang, and after the fall of the mainland in 1949 tried vainly to negotiate a reconciliation between Chairman Mao and Chiang Kaishek; in Salford, England.
