Church, said last night it had re-
classified the motion picture For

morally Objectionable in part"
The Catholic Church group,
which said Forever Amber" was
the first Twentieth Century Fox
production to receive its condemned
rating, explained its reclassification
Of the movie with this statement:
"Revisions made in this film are
deemed sufficient to meet substan-
TALLY the original objection Of the
legion that the picture glorif1ed i'm
morality. However, Forever Amber
still lacks the adequate morally
compensating values which should
be present in story of this kind"
