RADIO VARIETY
"TOO MUCH DRY STUFF” COMPLAINT AND ANSWER (Special to TUB SUN.) . CHRISTCHURCH, Thursday. In a letter to THE SUN, a correspondent deplores the lack of variety, and the high-class style of radio programmes, into which some light numbers should be introduced. People wanted variety and not so much dry stuff, he writes. The geenral manager of the Radio Broadcasting Company of New Zealand, Limited, Mr. A. R. Harris, to whom the letter was shown, stated: “In view of the fact that it is impossible to create programmes for broadcast that will delight every individual listener, regardless of types, the idea of broadcasting special programmes at different sessions offers possibilities. Under this arrangement one type of listener could be catered for at one session and other types at later sessions. By alternating with different stations an enthusiast for one class of music could, with a good receiving set, obtain on almost any night a definite class of programme from one or other of the company’s stations.
