- <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.
