Died. Earle ("Greasy") Neale, 81, who gave up a career in major league baseball to become one of football's leading innovators and most popular coaches; in Lake Worth, Fla. Neale spent eight seasons as an outfielder for the Cincinnati Reds, starred in the 1919 World Series, and played pro football during the off-seasons under an assumed name. In his first job as head coach, he led Pennsylvania's little-known Washington and Jefferson College into the 1922 Rose Bowl, where the heavily favored University of California barely managed to hold the Easterners to a scoreless tie. Widely credited with developing the man-to-man defense, the triple and fake reverse, Neale went on to handle the Yale backfield under Head Coach "Ducky" Pond until 1941, when he took charge of the hapless Philadelphia Eagles. Neale rebuilt the team from football's perennial doormats into two-time National Football League champions (1948-49) and in 1967 was elected to football's Hall of Fame.

Died. Dr. Paul Dudley White, 87, pioneer heart specialist and President Eisenhower's chief cardiologist after Ike's 1955 heart attack (see MEDICINE).

Died. Mohammed Maraghei Said, 92, former Premier of Iran; in Teheran. Once the Iranian Ambassador to the Soviet Union, Said became Premier in 1944 and proved himself a tough-minded anti-Communist by rejecting the U.S.S.R.'s first demands for Iranian oil concessions. Though his policy sparked public rioting, disrupted Iranian-Soviet relations, and resulted in his own resignation, Said was re-elected to office by the Iranian Parliament in 1948 and served another two years as Premier.
