Buster Crabbe, a former Olympic swim- ming champion who went on to star in movies as Buck Rogers and Flash Gordon, died yesterday at his home in this Phoenix suburb.

He was 75. He had "had a little heart problem over the years." but five minutes before he died he was making plans to attend an arthritis telethon in Nashville, and "didn't have any pain anyplace." said his wife. The Crabbes had celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary last week. Mr. Crabbe.

called the "King of the Serials." once remarked that he made only one A picture, his first feature. "King of the Jungle." He said the rest were sub-B's or serials, including his roles as Buck Rogers and Flash Gordon. "I made nine of them, more than anyone else in talkies," Mr. Crabbe once boasted of his serials. "Only William Desmond made more 10 silent serials.

I did three 'Flash two a 'Buck Rogers, plus 'Pirates of the High 'Red Barry and 'Sea Hound. "We knocked off 13 chapters in five to six weeks and didn't allow for much dramatic skill. Some say that my acting rose to the point of incompetence and then leveled off." Besides his two Tarzan serials, Mr. Crabbe made one Tarzan feature, 1933's "Tarzan the Fearless," The actor was born Clarence Linden Crabbe in Oakland, on Feb. 7, 1908.

He was called Buster since childhood and was also known as Larry. His family moved to Honolulu when he was 2, where "every kid wanted to be like Duke Kahana-moka, the 1911 Olympic champion who broke the record for the 50-yard and 100-yard sprints," he once said. Mr. Crabbe won 16 varsity letters in high school and won the light-heavyweight boxing championship of the islands during his first year at the University of Hawaii. At the 1928 Olympics in Amsterdam, Mr.

Crabbe placed third in the 1500-meter freestyle swim. He went on to break five world, swimming records and to capture 35 national and 16 international ti- Chelmsford. Beloved husband of Shirley A. (Harrison) Russell and devoted father of Robert D. Russell of Palm Beach, Fla.

Los Angeles Times Earl (Fatha) Hines. a pioneer of jazz piano whose style influenced virtually every jazzman who played the instrument, died Friday night in an Oakland. hospital after suffering a heart attack. He was 77. His trademark was a brassy quality, rhythmically bright and often intricate.

Critics called him "the trumpet-style pianist." For years, in the the 1920s and early 1930s, he stood alone -a man whose music was unique and not until the coming of Teddy Wilson was there a jazz pianist who could compare. Mr. Hines' orchestra in the 1940s served as a training ground for some of the greatest names in jazz, instrumentalists and vocalists such as Dizzy Gillespie. Charlie (Bird) Parker. Billy Eckstine and Sarah Vaughan.

Wilson. Art Tatum, Mary Lou Williams and Nat (King) Cole were all influenced by Mr. Hines. And touches of his style could be heard in Bud Powell, Erroll Garner and Oscar Peterson. Earl Kenneth Hines the nickname was to come much later from jazzmen recognizing their position as his musical offspring was born in Duquesne, an industrial suburb of Pittsburgh.

He formed his own band in high school, quit school and began to play in Pittsburgh clubs. He went on to Chicago, playing a South Side club partly owned by Al Capone. In 1927, he joined Louis Armstrong's orchestra, leaving after a time to start a new band. His music was frequently heard on coast-to-coast radio hookups in the 1930s, and his band was the first black group to tour extensively in the South. "No one had ever played the piano like that," wrote Whitney Bal-liet in a 1965 New Yorker profile.

"He fashioned complex, irregular -single-note patterns in the right hand His left hand, ignoring the stride pianists' catapult action, cushioned his right. "Hines and Armstrong became the first jazz soloists to sustain the tension that is the secret of improvisation. Each of Hines' solos has a unity that was heightened by his pioneering use of dynamics." Some of Hines' early recordings with Armstrong, such as "West End Blues" and "Save Pretty Mama," became classics. Mr. Hines' band in the early 1940s became the cradle of bebop, though by 1948, with interest in big bands declining, Mr.

Hines dissolved the unit and worked first as an Armstrong sideman before cony tinuing on in relative obscurity with small groups in West Coast neral services will be held Meanwhile, Mr. Crabbe tratvSv'. ferred to the University of Southenr California to attend law school'- Mr. Crabbe's career plhs-changed after he captured the gold medal in the 400-meter freestyle, swim in the 1932 Olympics in Angeles. He had the winning ttrne.

by a tenth of a second. "That one-tenth of a secdHd changed my life." he said. "They immediately discovered latent trionic talents in me." Three days after his win. Para-mount Pictures selected him to star in "King of the Jungle," When Mr. Crabbe's film career waned, he and his wife and chili dren moved to New York where he worked as a stockbroker, and later as a radio talk-show host 'ridj.

aquacade performer. v- In 1956, Mr. Crabbe returned to show business, starring in the teVv-vision show "Captain Gallant'of the French Foreign Legion." Mr. Crabbe later movedntb Scottsdale, where he became a spokesman for a swimming pool -manufacturer. He devoted his career to helping Americans keep fit.

He wrote two fitness int-', eluding one on exercise for arthriti ic sufferers, and conducted an exer-: cise show on New York television In the 1950s and 1960s he rana summer camp for boys near Sara-nac Lake, N.Y.

The Eastern jazz establishment rediscovered the pianist in the early 1960s, and Mr. Hines. though he had never been completely without work, was busier than ever, playing New York clubs and con-. cert halls, as well as touring Europe with big bands, trios and quartets. Mr.

Hines, who made Oakland his home base for the last 20 years, was married to Janie Hines. The marriage ended in divorce in 1980. They had two daughters, both of whom are dead, according to Hines' lawyer, Murray Petersen. Warren Dodge Sr. Retired fund counselor, 69 ASHLAND A funeral service for Warren A.

Coughlin Globe Staff James F. Morelli, a well-known attorney in many Greater Boston courtrooms for some 50 years, died Friday in Cambridge Hospital of coronary disease after a long illness. He was 84 and a resident of Maiden. Mr. Morelli, known by many until the late 1960s as the bon vivant of Boston's legal circles, was called "The Little Flower," because of his resemblance complete to his 5-by-5 stature, horn-rimmed spectacles and broad-brimmed beaver- fedora to the late New York mayor Fiorello LaGuardia, the original "Little Flower." But beyond the physical likeness there were original characteristics, and courtroom histrionics, that set this North End native apart: He may have been the only attorney admitted to the Massachusetts bar with only a St.

Anthony's Parochial School diploma; he never attended high school; had no college credits and did not have a college law degree. He was acknowledged, according to those who knew, him, as a competent, if flamboyant, lawyer, having passed the bar examination in 1927. He boasted, according to retired Globe courthouse reporter Dexter Brine, that he had represented 96 men charged with first degree murder, and that none was executed. After becoming ill in the early 1970s, Mr. Morelli retired from the courtrooms.

He had maintained offices in downtown Boston. One of his last court appearances, at the age of 72, was in Lynn District Court in defense of a 28-year-old breaking and entering suspect, an appearance that prompted an admirer to note: "There's still plenty of fight in you." Mr. Morelli was one of nine children of carpenter Giuseppe and Maria (DeStefano) Morelli, immigrants who settled in Boston's North End before the turn of the century. Stagestruck at the age of 14 -two years after he left grammar school Mr. Morelli was reported to have run away to New York when a famed English dramatist of the Sir Clifton Crawford, was captivating York audiences with Robert Service's poem, "Spell $595 5 DISCOUNT OFF THIS SIZE QN 0S3ERS RECEIVED BEFORE MY 1, 1983 DEATHS ANNOUNCEMENTS IN MEMORIAM CARRIGG VARUS Kathleen D.

Morelli into a J. reer after they had hired him clerk. Bailen and his partner, the late Judge Frank Leveroni, urged, young Morelli to study law, but.pac-cording to Mr. Morelli, he was first rejected by law schools because of his lack of schooling.
