Main St. By MARJORIE RICE Copley New* Service These days, there seem to be a lot more teetotalers than in years past-For them, the holiday season can be one of the toughest times of the year. It can be an uncomfort­ able experience, toting around a glass of ginger ale while the rest of the room is reveling in gin fizzes. Perrier or other sparkling bottled waters have achieved a certain social status. But not everyone want* to ring in the new year with water. And there should be tastier drinks than plain mix for the abstainer. For those who want to ring in the new year with a clear head, here are some non-alcoholic versions of popular drinks. Some of the non-alcoholic recipes are from "The Sunkist Non-Al­ coholic Bar Guide."
