Monday, Aug. 30, 1982

BORN. To Donna Summer, 33, sultry queen of disco, and Bruce Sudano, 33, songwriter (he co-wrote Summer's Bad Girls and Dolly Parton's Starting Over): their second child, second daughter; in Los Angeles. Name: Amanda. Weight: 7 Ibs. 6 oz.

DIVORCED. Anne Gorsuch, 40, confrontational, antiregulationist head of the federal Environmental Protection Agency; and David Gorsuch, 45, a Denver attorney; on grounds of an "irretrievable" break; after 18 years of marriage, three children; in Denver. They separated two years ago; she won custody of the children.

DIED. Patrick Magee, 58, Irish actor who gave broguish voice to Samuel Beckett's muse (Krapp 's Last Tape and several other Beckett plays were written with him in mind) and a 1966 Tony winner for his Marquis de Sade in the Royal Shakespeare Company's New York City production of Marat/Sade; of a heart attack; in London. Magee supported his stage art by playing film heavies, most recently a Colonel Blimpish Olympic Committee member in 1981's Chariots of Fire.

DIED. Ernie Bushmiller, 76, cartoonist who for half a century turned out his daily comic strip Nancy, now syndicated in more than 600 newspapers; of a heart attack; in Stamford, Conn. He turned to cartoons featuring the simply drawn, beady-eyed Nancy, Sluggo and Aunt Fritzi after concluding that he had less talent than his fellow art students.

DIED. Axel Hugo Teodor Theorell, 79, biochemist and winner of a 1955 Nobel Prize for his discoveries about enzymes and their role in helping the body's cells to use oxygen; of heart disease; in Stockholm. Crippled by polio as a young man, he abandoned his plan to practice medicine and went into research instead.

DIED. George Woods, 81, World Bank president from 1963 to 1968 and a founder of

First Boston Corp., a leading Wall Street investment house; of cancer; at his vacation home near Lisbon, Portugal. Son of a Brooklyn shipyard worker, Woods rose to become what Banker David Rockefeller called "one of the two or three top investment bankers in the U.S. and perhaps the world."

DIED. Loyal Davis, 86, Chicago brain surgeon and adoptive father of Nancy Reagan; of congestive heart failure; in Scottsdale, Ariz. Developer of a special shrapnel helmet for air crewmen in World War II, he was president of the American College of Surgeons in 1962-63. Davis criticized shoddy medical training, which, he said, meant that half the operations in the U.S. were performed by inadequate surgeons. An outspoken political conservative, he influenced Nancy (whom he adopted when she was 14 after he married her mother) and later his son-in-law Ronald Reagan. Said Nancy of him last May: "He taught me discipline by example."
