DRINKING HABITS
CHANGES LAMENTED COCKTAIL AN ABOMINATION LONDON, November 11. The head of one of London's most famous wine firms, with which he has been connected for half a century, lamenting some of the changes in drinking habits, said: "The cocktail is an abomination, medically, socially, scientifically, aesthetically, but it will soon be a thing of the past. Sherry is replacing.it." The biggest change in the wine trade arose from the construction of huge blocks of flats. His fifm was storing thousands of bottles of wine for flat dwellers who had nowhere to put it.' It should not be beyond an architect's skill to provide some wine storage in flats. ••■'■■'
