Jung
Largo Caballero
3/26 Vincent Youmans
3/27 Alekhine - killed
3/31 Leon Kobrin
4/3 Noah Beery
4/23 Mae Busch & Lionel Atwill
Interesting to me that he spelled "Mae" correctly this time (wrote "May" on the original entry). But see my note at the end of this section.
5/4 Little Bill Johnston
5/6 Dr. Simon Flexner
5/8 J J Johnston
5/18 Eberhard Faber
5/20 Booth Tarkington
5/24 Henry George Weiss
He didn't write the deaths too clearly, so I've been going back to the date of the diary entry to check the names; found that this one was entered by me as "Henry Bruga Weiss"; now corrected. And, BTW, it seems that the name was really George Henry Weiss.
5/26 Patterson of the "News"
29 Carter Glass
He started writing only the new month, from here on.
6/4 Kalinin
7 Gerhard Hauptmann
10 Sen. Bankhead
11 Jack Johnson
15 Major Bowes; Chas. Butterworth
26 Wm Hart
30 Wanda Gag, Antoinette Perry
Just found out that he's NOT going through the diary for deaths; these two are not mentioned in that day's (or any other day's) diary entry (except that I did take out a book from the library by Wanda Gag).
7/5 Steiglitz [sic]
This one made me check the name; he misspelled it both times, understandable, considering our last name!
11 Sidney Hillman
20 Bogolometz
28 Gertrude Stein

Another example of a death not in a diary entry.
2/1 Johnny Kling
5 Adm. Mitscher
6 Ellen Wilkinson, Hans Fallada
14 Sidney Toler
23 Harry K. Thaw
3/10 Carrie Chapman Catt
18 Jean Richard Bloch
28 John Evers
4/8 Henry Ford
19 Benny Leonard
This was difficult to complete correctly, since the last page apparently fell out, and he pasted it in, covering part of the back cover, on which he had written the last 22 names. So some dates were not visible; I took them from the diary entry.
In addition to the few names which I noted were not in the diary entry, another indication that he was using some other source was that some names were written out differently here than in the diary entry (e.g., Carrie Chapman Catt was Carrie C. Catt in the diary entry; John Evers was Johnny Evers in the diary entry).
