But W. E. Henley once said in a poem, "Tf .[ were King, my Pipe should be Premier,’ and probably Gustard’s quiet pipe makes him a better organist. 8.55 From 2YA Studio: The Concert Orchestra, "Sons of the Brave" March Bidgood 9.0 Daventry news 9.20 Weather report and station notices 9.25 "Exploits of the Black Moth" (Episode 22): " Mayfair Muddle " 9.51 "The Moonstone": Episode 41 of Wilkie Collins’s dramatic thriller, presented for radio by George Edwards and Company 10. 4 Dance music by Manuel Raymond’s Dance Orchestra, relayed from the Exhibition Cabaret 11. 4 Close of normal programme.
