I don't have a match, but Ray Dolby has to go with a "Thomas" for Thomas Dolby - Synthesizer.

42. The titles of a Thomas Hardy novel and a Stanley Kubrick movie are both taken from this 18th century poet’s most famous work.
THOMAS GRAY


52. At age 80, this West Virginia Senator became the oldest person ever nominated on a major party ticket in a Presidential election.
52 is Henry Davis, who ran for VP on the Democratic ticket in 1904, which gets a couple of the matches I figured on out of the way.

Henry Thomas goes with ET
Gray Davis goes with Recall

31. He was the last defensive player to be named the NFL MVP – an honor he received twice.
RAY LEWIS

46. In 1969, this American engineer patented a system to reduce noise on analog audio recording.
RAY DOLBY

59. This physician won two National Book Awards for his 1974 collection of essays subtitled Notes of a Biology Watcher.
LEWIS THOMAS
I'm pretty sure that 31 is wrong. Ray Lewis was never named NFL MVP. In fact, I couldn't find that any defensive player that had been named NFL MVP by any organization twice. The most recent defensive MVP was Lawrence Taylor, and that would be a good fit for this puzzle.

The reason I was pretty sure Ray Lewis was wrong is that:

Ray Lewis goes with Raven
Thomas Dolby goes with Synthesizer

Of the 'definite' answers, six are incorrect - or, at least, not what I had in mind. I'm not going back to check if these are legitimate alternates because I think this will work itself out.
In that group, #14, 31, 40, 69, 73 & 76 are wrong, so the rest must be correct.

Identify the 100 people in the clues below. Match them into 50 pairs according to a Tangredi, or principle you must discover for yourself. Then match each pair with two of the Associated Words. No names will be used twice.

SNCC is probably for John Lewis. There are currently two names with Lewis but no John.

Jim Gordon and William Ramsey yield Gordon Ramsey and William James. I don't see associated words for either (!*#%*@*^%!#*!%%#@**! which was used for Luther Campbell could also match Ramsey).

I actually agreed with SSS when he said 2 (as in 2 Live Crew) is probably a better fit for Luther Campbell than the cuss word symbols

I thought about Gordon Ramsay as a match for the cuss words. But Gordon Ramsay spells his name with an "a" and Dave Ramsey spells his name with an "e." Frank is usually a stickler for exact spelling in his puzzles so I'm not sure if that's the match that works here.

SSS shot down one of my ideas, but the other one is OK.

43. From 1984 to 2000, he served as Archbishop of the second largest Roman Catholic diocese in the United States.
JOHN O'CONNOR

43. JOHN O'CONNOR + 54. LEWIS CARROLL = John Lewis (SNCC) and Carroll O'Connor (Archie)

That means we need a different associated word for Nero Wolfe.

Nero Wolfe goes with Rex (Stout).

John Lewis could also go with Atlanta. We'll have to see what other matches come up.

99. WILLIAM RAMSEY
And here's the solution. The answer to 99 is William RamsAy.

Which leaves us with

William James goes with Metaphysical
Gordon Ramsay goes with cuss words.

32. A leading figure of the Harlem Renaissance, this painter is notable for figures such as jazz musicians and Harriet Tubman shown in silhouette.

I think this is probably AARON DOUGLAS


34. Known primarily for his menswear, this designer – who was knighted in 2000 for his services to the British fashion industry – has described his aesthetic as "well-made, good quality, simple cut, interesting fabric, easy to wear."

PAUL SMITH??


36. Originator of the concept of milieu intérieur, this physiologist was also an outspoken proponent of vivisection in pursuit of science – as his wife and children discovered when he dissected the family dog.

Looking for people that Amy Johnson could match with, I came across Amy Lowell, who was a Pulitzer Prize winning poet of the Imagist School. Unless there's another Lowell in the unmatched clues, that leaves Thomas Johnson as the other half.

I think Aaron Douglas should go with one of the Henrys because that would give us Henry Aaron (Atlanta), but I can't get one of them to match one of the terms.

Anyone see anything from one of these?

Douglas Adams, the author of the Hitchhiker's Guide Trilogy, would go with 42, since that's the answer to Life, the Universe, and Everything.

Harrison Ford probably matches with Indiana.
