'Forever Amber' Upheld

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

BOSTON, MARCH 10-"Forever Amber" was freed to Massachusetts readers by Superior Court judge Francis J. Donahue who ruled the Kathleen Winzor novel "not obscene" but said it was "conducive to sleep."

Ending the first court test of a new Massachusetts law under which the book itself-not the bookseller of publisher--goes on trial, the judge's ruling put the story of a gay beauty of England's restoration back on the bookstands.
