Comment On This and That By HARMAN W. NICHOLS United Press Feature Writer Washington (UR) The instructions to the panel of pos sible experts said: "Please drink lightly, if at all, in advance of the judg ing." And, they went on; "If you take a drink before you go about your judging, w e strongly Barman Niehois r e c o mmena that it be a light bourbon high ball, with either soda or water, so that your taste buds will not become dulled." My buds were in pretty fine shape, but fortunately, I wasn't a judge. Some of my colleagues were. They were plucked from the press coop to sniff and sip the best the bartenders of this area could serve up in a national mix ed drink competition. Real Fancy Stuff There was stuff dressed up with fruit and olives and on ions. Also creme de menthe and things tasting like cocoa and the like. Sniffing would have been enough, but these guys were "compelled" to sip as well. It was kind of nice to sit that one out. Men in white coats were shak ing sway and mixing like mad, in a fight for Brown-Forman's national award, a $1000 govern ment savings bond. The fellow who triumphed in our regional tests the finals will be held with considerable whoop-la in New York later was one Joseph Schroeder a cocktail shaker from Wilmington, Del. He called his concoction "The Brunette." Joe, after sweating it out against 44 other conestants, told me: "The idea is to knock to gether a batch of one-third bour bon, one third Kahlua a liquer and one third straight cream." Before it was presented to the judges to sip Joe's concoction un derwent considerable shaking around.

Want New Drinkt Matt Downer, who is traveling for the liquor people to round up winners for the finals, likes a thing dreamed up by the win ner of the Boston contest. Fas cinated by the name, maybe, and how it ever got to New England. This bartender called his stir-up "Lady RebeL" This one calls for. two ounces of bourbon, i ounce of apricot brandy, M ounce of creme de cocoa, a tablespoon of grenadine. You shake it well with cracked ice, strain into four-ounce cock tail glasses and yell: "Come and get it." Matt said the idea behind the contests was to bring out some new mixed drinks. "We havent had many of these since repeal, you know," he said. Downer is not too sure the latest concoctions will be wel comed universally. Some bartenders don't care much about stirring up "Zom bies" and "Pink Ladies." Iff much easier to pull the handle on the beer tap or dump a jigger of bar juice into a glass of ice cubes and water, ginger or soda.
