They
have
no
"snob
appeal."
The
pottery
workers
regard
saucer-making
as
beneath
their
dignity.
Anyway,
they'd
rather
make
cups.
Nigel
Blanchin,
39-year-old
scientist
and
author
of
"Mine
Own
Executioner,"
has
brought
the
subject
up
at
a
meeting
in
Brighton.
"We
can't
buy
saucers,"
he
said,
"because
saucer-makers
are
considered
the
lowest
form
of
life
in
potteries."
The
poor,
fiaucerless,

has

Now,

to

Sometimes
they
have
to
explain
what
they
are
to
younger
patrons.
