Died. Charles Gilman Norris, 64, sociological novelist whose unfailingly topical themes included women in business (Bread), birth control (Seed), radical youth (Bricks Without Straw); of a heart ailment; in Palo Alto, Calif. Brother of the late Author Frank Norris, he was the husband of Author Kathleen Norris, who was in many ways his exact opposite number: she was an America Firster, a Democrat, Catholic and dry, he a rousing interventionist, Republican, Episcopalian and dispenser of highballs to their ranch guests.

Died. General Malin Craig, 69, U.S. Army Chief of Staff (1935-39) preceding General George C. Marshall, ex-commandant of the Army War College, onetime West Point star halfback, wartime head of the Secretary of War's personnel board; of a heart ailment; in Washington, D.C.

Died. Margot Asquith, 81, the Countess of Oxford and Asquith, witty widow of British Prime Minister (1908-16) Herbert H. Asquith, longtime society enfant terrible; after a brief illness; in London. Her gossipy books (More or Less about Myself, Off the Record) about famed friends and enemies never violated her premise that "reticence is dull reading." Her lifetime of audacities included writing a note in pencil to Queen Victoria, declining to stay at a dinner party despite King Edward's request, staging a fashion show at No. 10 Downing Street.
