A LITTLE STATION GOES A LONG WAY
The excellent carrying strength of Invercargill’s Station 4YZ is indicated in recent reports on the "Listener's Own Session," broadcast each Tuesday, and scheduled for next week at 7.45 p.m. Programmes for broadcast are sent from as far north as Whangarei, Auckland and the Bay of Plenty. Several families in the Bay of Plenty listen to it every week. Taihape and towns in the Waikato send reports of good reception. Hawke’s Bay, Wanganui, Wellington, Nelson and Blenheim are usually represented in the "Listener's Own". mail. Recently a letter about the session was received in Invercargill from Samoa. In the local field the station is also getting a good response to its programmes. It is now using juvenile artists in the studio for the children’s session on Mondays, Tuesdays and Fridays. An appeal for talent was broadcast, and more than 200 came in. Station 4YZ recently lost : the last of its original staff when Miss F. G. Hinchley left to take up nursing in Wellington. Others on the original staff were R. T. Parsons, who resigned to go into business locally, Cecil Parsons, now overseas with the N.Z.E.F., and J. F. Skedden, now on the NBS staff in Christchurch.
