Before we bring you Ronald Coleman and our suspense play, here's a brief message from Elsa Maxwell, famed for her great charm as a hostess.

When food looks appetizing, it almost always lives up to expectations. When even so simple a main dish as a steaming, fragrant bowl of spaghetti or beans is surrounded by bright green salads, golden rolls or muffins, and brilliant Roma California burgundy, the food is more enjoyable, more delightful.

And for a summary touch of the outdoors of aces of flowers, perfect color complement to the deep rich beauty of Roma burgundy. You'll enjoy the fruity, robust taste, the tart pecansy of distinguished Roma burgundy served cool.

Truly, a masterpiece of fine wine-making. Like all Roma wines, Roma burgundy is unbaryingly good, always high in quality of bouquet, color and taste. The happy reward of selected grapes brought slowly to perfection, gently pressed, then carefully guided to flavor fullness for the ancient skill of Roma's noted wineries in California's choicest vineyards.
