Pope Paul is concerned By ERNEST SAKLER VATICAN CITY (UPI)—Pope Paul VI has become increasingly concerned with the growing student rebellion throughout the world, Vatican sources said today. They said it will show in his Christmas message. The Pope will warn against youthful “anarchy” in the annual Christmas message to the world’s 600 million Roman Catholics over the worldwide Vatican radio, the sources said. The Christmas message is at least three days earlier than on previous years. Vatican sources said it was because the Pope wants to leave time before the holiday to announce names of new Cardinals he is appointing. The Pope has become increasingly concerned over youthful rebellion and those who take “the recourse to violence and anarchy” among students not only in Italy but France, the United States and other nations, the sources said. The Pope two days ago proclaimed Jan. 1, 1969, as “World Day of Peace” and appealed to men everywhere to negotiate for peace. “Peace must be willed,” he said. “Peace must be loved. Peace must be produced.” The Pope will receive two Roman orphans who will bring figures of the Christ child for him to bless Sunday morning and will bless such figures brought by other children in St. Peter’s Square for the Pope’s Sunday noon appearance from his window.

HOLLYWOOD (UPI) - The popularity decline of televised movies— once a sensation in the ratings—is no longer merely a trend, but a confirmed fact. Video seasons usually start out with the top network films, which draw good ratings before the lesser motion pictures come along later in the year and lose the audience. This season, however, the drop in audience occurred almost immediately after the season began. And there is no sign that televised network movies will recoup their former popularity, except for an occasional blockbuster, a fluke hit or a film starring a personality who happens to be a tremendous favorite. The national video ratings for the week ending Dec. 8, for instance, indicated that of six motion pictures shown on the three networks, the highestranked one among all television shows listed came in 35th. The most obvious reason for the ratings slippage of films is that the majority of available popular hits have already been seen on the home tube, and most of the current titles are from the second rank of motion pictures. Yet seven movies a week continue to be scheduled by the networks, with occasional specials slipped in as relief. A shortage of motion pictures may not, however, be the only major reason for the ratings drop. It is entirely possible that what is currently happening to audiences of movies on elevision is similar to what took place not too many years back with audiences of movies in theaters: they are getting weary of the old-style approach. It was television itself, with its routine series, that took away the B-movie product from motion pictures in those years. And now the networks, with little more than second class movies left, find themselves with the kind of films that audiences outgrew. And most of the original two-hour movies for video, though a sensation when the other films were also hot, now are clearly recognized as routine stuff. I don’t think that home audiences are tired of movies at all. What the networks need to do, ironically, is just what the

film industry did when it was in trouble: give the fans what is presently not available on television—that is, more contemporary, creative, biting stuff, along with the occasional big standard movies that always draw. Most of the B-movies current, ly seen on the networks are pretty close to the quality of a

good television series. Y’et it may be hardly an accident that variety shows, which by nature are more topical and lively in their outlook than melodramatic series, are doing best in the ratings against the movies. In addition, numerous specials have done well in the ratings— indicating fans are looking for the unique.
