Died. Angela Atwood, 25; Donald David DeFreeze ("General Field Marshal Cinque"), 30; Nancy Ling Perry, 27; Patricia ("Mizmoon") Soltysik, 24; William Wolfe, 22; leading members of the Symbionese Liberation Army (see THE NATION).

Died. Allal el Fassi, 65, Moroccan nationalist leader; of a heart attack; in Bucharest, Rumania. As founder and president of the Istiqlal (Independence) Party, Fassi led the movement that in 1956 freed Morocco from French rule. He urged the annexation of Mauritania and other adjacent lands into a greater Moroccan empire and long served as a respected conservative voice in his country's politics.

Died. Jaime Torres Bodet, 72, Mexican author, educator, diplomat and statesman; by his own hand (gunshot); in Mexico City. Quintessentially the intellectual-in-politics--he published almost twoscore books--Torres Bodet held that illiteracy was a sinister enemy of democracy and international peace. After becoming Minister of Education in 1943, he launched a mammoth literacy campaign that in its first two years taught more than a million Mexicans to read and write. Named head of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) in 1948, he resigned four years later, arguing that a budget cut imperiled the agency's drive for social progress. Suffering from cancer of the prostate, he wrote in a suicide note: "I prefer to call on death myself at the right time."

Died. Eleanor Tennant, 79, first U.S. woman tennis pro, who taught the game to stars of the court and the Hollywood screen; in La Jolla, Calif. Lean and leathery, Tennant changed women's tennis from a defensive base-line game into an aggressive, serve-and-smash attack. Third-ranked U.S. woman player in 1920, she soon started coaching and made Wimbledon champions of Alice Marble, Maureen Connolly and Bobby Riggs. "Teach," as she was nicknamed by one of her finest show-biz pupils, Carole Lombard, was also courtside mentor of Clark Gable, Marlene Dietrich and Groucho Marx.

Died. Dr. Jacob L. Moreno, 83, controversial psychiatrist who developed the psychodrama therapeutic technique in the 1920s; after a long illness; in Beacon, N.Y. Trained in Vienna, Moreno came to believe that "orthodox psychoanalysis only makes a patient feel more self-conscious and lonely." He devised a kind of group-therapy theater in which participants assume roles onstage, spontaneously acting out their hang-ups and interacting with individuals on both sides of the footlights.
