<p> DIED. Eddie Kendricks, 52, singer; of lung cancer he
attributed to 30 years of cigarette smoking; in Birmingham,
Alabama. Kendricks' polished but passionate tenor topped off the
soulful chords of the Temptations, the major male Motown group of
the '60s, in such hits as The Way You Do the Things You Do, My
Girl and Just My Imagination (Running Away with Me). A subsequent
solo career peaked with 1973's Keep On Truckin', but recent
years saw reunions with former Temps, including David Ruffin,
who died of a drug overdose last year.
