Dack Rambo Of `Dallas,' `Another World' Dies At 53

DELANO, Calif. - Dack Rambo, who played silver-haired Jack Ewing on "Dallas" and a congressman on the soap opera "Another World" before he learned he was infected with the AIDS virus and quit show business, died Monday at age 53. The cause of the death was not disclosed.

In 1991, Mr. Rambo quit as Grant Harrison on NBC's "Another World" and announced he had the AIDS virus. Going public with his illness was "like freedom to me," he said.

Mr. Rambo, who said he was bisexual, complained that his 1985-87 role on "Dallas" began to shrink because he was thought to be gay.
