BORES CHILDREN LONDON (Reuters) -- A new-style Alice in Wonder- land, banned from Christmas television as too. horrifying for cnildren, finally made the screen Wednesday night and bored more youngsters than it frightened.

The star - studded £25,000 ($75,000) version of Lewis Carroll's fantasy may have impressed intellectuals, but it left most viewers as confused as the Victorian heroine. Four children invited to the BBC studio as guinea pigs told viewers afterwards they weren't frightened at all. They said they just didn't un- derstand the program. Warnings had been flashed dramatically on tele vision screens for the last 10 days, telling parents the Alice of 1966 was not suitable for children.

(CP)--Canada, the country in the middle, is hoping that the United States and Rus- sia will reach some mutual un- derstanding not to accelerate the arms race again by build- ing counter-missile systems. Officials here said Wednesday that the U.S. would not need Canadian territory on which to build anti-missile defence bases, which could be constructed) within the U.S. On the other hand, nuclear missile interception in such cir- cumstances would take place over Canada and this country would get most of the radio- active fallout. Thus Canada might want to Candaax Haber For Ka In U.S.- Russia Arms Race provide the U.S. with Arctic bases for the proposed Nike-X anti-missile system.

FORESEE LITTLE CHANGE Defence Minister Hellyer is believed to have been thinking of this latter possibility when he told the Commons Dec. 7 that the present NORAD a ment with the U.S, is to require major changes in the immediate future "unless a de- cision is made by the U.S. to deploy an anti-missile defence." U.S. Defence. Secretary Rob- ert McNamara has said there is "considerable evidence" that WINDSOR, Ont. (CP)--A 14- year-old Windsor boy who spent Christmas in Essex County jail here has been transferred to London, Ont., until his next court appearance in Windsor Jan. 13, ao After four days in custody, the juvenile appeared Wednes- day before Magistrate Joseph P. McMahon, sitting as a ju- venile and family court judge, and was remanded to the Lon- don observation home for ju- veniles. The boy had to be jailed by the reluctant magistfate be- cause Windsor has no detention home for juveniles and the closest such home in London was closed for the Christmas holiday weekend. The boy had earlier been placed in the custody of his Boy Goes To Juvenile Home Christmas Spent In Jail parents' pending juvenile court proceedings on another matter. He was picked up by police on Christmas Eve following a rob- bery with violence incident.

By Maple Leaf Flag Debate -- An American looking at the 1964 Canadian flag debate says it '"mderlined not only some ma- jor facets of public dissensus in Canada but also the often-im- perfect gropings of the political rties to come to terms with paper delivered Wednesday to the annual meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science. The author is Professor Henry §S. Albinski of Pennsyl- vania State University and he traces the evolution of the Ca- nadian flag blow by parlia- mentary blow. He says the crux of the de- bate was the "inclusion or omission of traditional French or English symibols", not the color or the number of maple leaves. COHESION WEAKENED "Canadian party cohesion normally is strong, dropping off mostly in those rare instances when a party group is struck by a major English-French issue division. This was one such sue. "The Liberals appeased both their wings adequately... . the Conservatives failed to make such an accommodation. . . ." Dr. Albinski says one upshot is that '"'minor political parties have become a definite political fixture." "Regional strength is shifting. Conservatives have become en- trenched in the Prairies and d Russia has started to build a counter-missile system to de- fend some of its major cities. U.S. State Secretary. Dean Rusk has indicated that the U.S. is considering a major at- tempt to reach agreement with Russia that the two powers re- frain from building hugely ex- pensive counter- missile sys- tems.

CULTIVATION POSSIBLE He said the U.S. Army Quar- termaster Corps is experiment- ing with various forms of vege- tative and animal life--such as molds, bacteria and the sand fleas--which theoretically might be cultivated in the virtually airless, near-vacuum conditions of the moon's surface. Dr. Menzel, one of a panel of space scientists discussing the latest knowledge of the moon's surface and interior at the big science meeting, told a press conference: "I think it's possible that some of the rocks on the moon contain what we call 'water of crystallization!' And, if so, there's a real possibility for man--about 10 to. 15 years from now--to have self-supporting ex- peditions on the moon. nuclear force in which Ger-j northwest TORONTO (CP) -- Forecasts issued at 5:30 a.m. Synopsis: Strong winds, snow- Lake St. Clair, Niagara, western Lake Ontario, Windsor, Hamilton, onto: Cloudy with snowflurries today.
