The invention claimed is: 1. A cup lid comprising a top panel, a rim integral with and peripherally about said panel, a channel in said top panel extending from a central area thereon to said rim, said channel having a bottom, an opening defined through said bottom adjacent said rim, a recess in sa
The invention claimed is: 1. A cup lid comprising a top panel, a rim integral with and peripherally about said panel, a channel in said top panel extending from a central area thereon to said rim, said channel having a bottom, an opening defined through said bottom adjacent said rim, a recess in said top panel, said recess having a greater width than said channel and extending from said channel at said central area to said rim, said recess having a bottom coplanar with said channel bottom, said recess bottom and said channel bottom inclining slightly downward toward said opening in said channel bottom, a closure member for said opening integrally formed with said lid, a tear line defined between said closure member and said lid for a severing of said closure member from said lid, said channel including means for slidably receiving and retaining said closure member, subsequent to a severing of said closure member from said lid, for sliding movement in said channel between a closed position wherein said closure member overlies and closes said opening and an open position wherein said opening is exposed for a sipping of a cup's contents therethrough. 2. The cup lid of claim 1 wherein said means for retaining said closure member for sliding movement in said channel comprises a pair of opposed guideways along opposed sides of said channel for receiving opposed side edge portions of the severed closure member. 3. The cup lid of claim 2 including a depending skirt peripherally about said lid outward of said rim, said closure member, prior to severing, being integrally formed with said skirt. 4. The cup lid of claim 3 wherein said closure member includes a gripping surface thereon for facilitating manual sliding movement of said closure member within said channel. 5. The cup lid of claim 4 wherein said closure member, adjacent a leading end thereof, includes a projection conforming in shape and size to said opening for engagement in and sealing of said opening in said closed position of the channel received closure. 6. The cup lid of claim 1 wherein said closure member includes a gripping surface defined thereon for facilitating manual sliding movement of said closure member within said channel. 7. The cup lid of claim 6 wherein said closure member, adjacent a leading end thereof, including a projection conforming in shape and size to said opening for engagement in and sealing of said opening in said closed position of the channel received closure. 8. A formed lid for a hot cup comprising a top panel, said top panel having an outer periphery with means on said outer periphery for a mounting of said lid to a cup, said top panel having a channel defined therein and extending from a central area thereon to a point adjacent the periphery of the top panel, said channel having a bottom, an opening defined through said bottom adjacent said periphery, a recess in said top panel, said recess having a greater width than said channel and extending from said channel at said central area to said rim, said recess having a bottom coplanar with said channel bottom, said recess bottom and said channel bottom inclining slightly downward toward said opening in said channel bottom, a closure member for said opening integrally formed with said lid remote from said channel, a severance line defined between said closure member and said lid for a severing of said closure member from said lid, said channel being of a size as to slidably receive the severed closure member, said channel including means for slidably retaining said closure member therein for movement between a closed position overlying said opening and an open position wherein said closure member is retracted from said opening. 9. The cup lid of claim 8 wherein said means for a mounting of the lid to a cup includes a depending peripheral skirt. 10. The cup lid of claim 9 wherein said closure member is integrally formed with said skirt and extends laterally therefrom prior to severing. 11. The cup lid of claim 10 including an upwardly projecting rim defined peripherally about said top panel immediately inward of said skirt. 12. The cup lid of claim 11 wherein said channel extends partially into said rim and defines a narrowing of said rim to form a drinking lip adjacent the opening in the bottom of the channel. 13. A closable drink container for receiving and selectively discharging a liquid, said container comprising a lid component and a cup component, said lid component comprising a top panel, having an outer periphery, a channel defined in said top panel extending from a central area thereon to a point adjacent said periphery, said channel having a bottom, an opening defined through said bottom adjacent said periphery, a recess in said top panel, said recess having a greater width than said channel and extending from said channel at said central area to said rim, said recess having a bottom coplanar with said channel bottom, said recess bottom and said channel bottom inclining slightly downward toward said opening in said channel bottom, a closure member for said opening integrally formed with one of said lid and cup components, a severance line defined between said closure and the component with which said closure component is integrally formed for a selective severing of the closure member, said channel including means for slidably receiving and retaining the severed closure member for sliding movement in said channel between a closed position overlying said opening and an open position withdrawn therefrom. 14. The closable drink container of claim 13 wherein said closure member is integral with and extends beyond a seam forming edge on said cup component. 15. The closable drink container of claim 13 wherein said closure member is integrally formed with said lid component remote from said channel. 16. The closable drink container of claim 15 including means for a mounting of the lid component to a cup component including a depending peripheral skirt, said closure member being integrally formed with said skirt and extending laterally therefrom prior to severing.
