All of which would prob ably have Infuriated England's Oliver Cromwell and hit Purl tan followers. One of the first things they did when they came to power In 1644 was to ban the Christmas celebration altogether. Why?Because they believed the whole thing smacked of "immoral sun-worshlppo." ' The Board One of the great flim flams of American life ia the rating of films by a group in Los Angeles called the Rating Board. The board is better than nothing, but only slightly better. ; It haa no power to enforce its rulings. It is controlled by the Motion Picture Asso ciation, is the creature of the film industry, and as - such could hardly be totally objective. It does not rate all films-producers are not required to submit their films and many seek an automatic X rating by not submitting them. Etc. The deluge of trash, filth ' and ignorance which has continued to engulf Ameri can screens in recent years has been degrading and harmful. Few favor film cen sorship but the interests of all Americans would be best served if an impartial rating board, government appoint ed, rated every film. The board need not be given power to ban films; its impartial ratings. "t know at laet what dIH tlnguithea men from animtlt: flnanolal worries. (Jul Renard) good cheer at Christmas!

The Wine Growers of California have indicated their preference for an all-purpose, tulip-shaped glass that holds about nine ounces. It's appropriate for any type of wine, say the experts. Wine may be served in any glass, even a tumbler but somehow it seems to taste much better in a stemmed glass. This is more than the beauty of that glass on your table; it's also be cause a stem keeps your hand from warming the wine. , In search for wine glasses, first of all look for a large size to that the glass may be poured only about half-full. A slight tulip shape, with the top of, the glass a little narrower than the widest part of the bowl, helps to hold the wine's aroma and bouquet in the empty space above the wine. .
