OTHER NOTABLE DEATHS

SpaghettiOs creator

Donald Goerke, the Campbell Soup Co. executive who was behind the enduring brands SpaghettiOs and Chunky Soup, died of heart failure Sunday at his home in Delran in southern New Jersey.

Mr. Goerke was marketing research director of Campbell's Franco-American line in the early 1960s when his group started dreaming up pasta in shapes that would appeal to kids. He chose the O's.
