Married. Winthrop Paul Rockefeller, 22, only son of former Arkansas Governor Winthrop Rockefeller and his first wife Barbara ("Bobo") Sears; and Deborah Cluett Sage, 20, blonde London socialite; both for the first time; in an Episcopal ceremony in Williamsburg, Va.

Died. Michael Field, 56, food expert and writer on the art of cooking; of a heart attack; in Manhattan. A successful concert pianist with a passion for cooking, Field started a culinary school and in 1964 turned his full attention to classic cuisine. He produced a series of literate cookbooks and debunked such myths as the need to wash mushrooms, devein shrimp and press garlic. He preached imaginative uses for leftovers, such as Armenian lamb pie made from roast leg of lamb. His books include Michael Field's Cooking School, Michael Field's Culinary Classics and Improvisations and All Manner of Food. With his wife, Frances, he wrote the TIME-LIFE book A Quintet of Cuisines.

Died. Arne Jacobsen, 69, Danish architect and designer; of a heart attack; in Copenhagen. "Economy plus function equals style," proclaimed Jacobsen, and he carried out his philosophy in stunning, spare buildings like those he designed for Oxford University's St. Catherine's College, completed in 1964. Jacobsen was equally well known for his interiors and furnishings. His famous "egg" and "ant" chairs earned him more money and acclaim than many architects received for entire buildings.

Died. Martin Bodmer, 71, Swiss banker and collector of rare books and manuscripts; of peritonitis; in Geneva, Switzerland. Bodmer accumulated more than 100,000 items in his "Bibliotheca Bodmeriana," including one of three copies of the Gutenberg Bible in private collection. His greatest coup was his 1952 acquisition of 73 folios and quartos of Shakespeare's plays and sonnets. The price was more than $1,000,000.

Died. Josiah Red Wolf, 98, last survivor of the Nez Perce War of 1877; in Lewiston, Idaho. Red Wolf was four when Chief Joseph's people were relentlessly attacked by the U.S. Cavalry as they made their famous retreat across the wilds of Idaho and Montana. In a major battle at Big Hole Basin, Montana, many of the Nez Perces were killed, including Red Wolf's mother and sister. Finally, on Oct. 5, 1877, Chief Joseph surrendered to the cavalry in Montana's frigid Bear Paw Mountains with the words: "From where the sun now stands I will fight no more forever." Red Wolf became a cobbler, country musician and farmer. In 1967, he returned to Big Hole and turned the first shovelful of dirt for the visitor center at Big Hole Battlefield National Monument.
