Heir's Hangover Included Bride NEW YORK A judge Monday annulled the marriage of Louis S.

Stroock, 46, invalid heir to a woolen fortune, who testified he was drunk for 10 months before he realized he had wed a 52-year-old former telephone operator. After five weeks of trial before a jury, Helen Thompson Stroock withdrew her objections to the annulment, agreeing to accept $35,000 and to return a diamond ring that had belonged to Stroock's mother. Mrs. Stroock had denied Stroock's story that he married her while drunk in the Grand Bahamas in October, 1964, and stayed drunk until August, 1965. Stroock, who sat in a wheel chair, had told the court he had been "floating in Scotch" and drank as much as a quart a day.

"I must conclude this was not a marriage made in heaven and it was certainly not a marriage on earth," said Judge Irving H.

The Harris probability sample was of 2,559 likely voters nationwide. "Apparently, this poll did not sit well with some of his Democratic friends, so he has decided to provide a 'bonus survey' for release tomorrow.

This hurried operation, which produced a Humphrey lead, comprised a probability sample of only 1,206 likely voters nationwide. "Harris' gratuitous concoction of this plot will in no way con the voters into believing that Hubert long ago become aware of the inaccuracy of the Harris polling record." Democratic National Chairman Lawrence O'Brien, a i ng for Humphrey in Washington, said the vice president was "over the top now," and added that Humphrey and his running mate, Sen. Edmund S. Muskie, "stood up to be counted on the issues and they did not like their Republican opponents take the electorate for granted. "The polls are showing it now," said O'Brien.

"The voters will show it tomorrow." Former Senator Burke Is Dead WASHINGTON -Former Sen. Edward R.
