AFTER THE NEWSREEL
| Sir,-At the moment I am listening to the extremely interesting "Pacific Edition of the Radio Newsreel" from the BBC, re-broadcast by 2FC Sydney. Why cannot this instructive series, which is receivable so well here from 9.30 to 10.0 p.m., be re-broadcast by our own
stations after the BBC topical talk? This would avoid the programme "flop" after the topical talk, and would appear to be more what is wanted in these days than recordings and dance music. :
N. S.
MacDONALD
(Tikirangi).
We are informed that the aim is to preserve a balance between re-broadcasts on war topics and local programmes. If the correspondent got his way, here is what the programmes of the National Stations would be like for say a Sunday evening during the best listening hours of 7 p.m. to 10 p.m.: + Oto 8.15 p.m. (approx. ) Church rvice 8.15 to 8.45 p.m. Musical programme 8.45to 9. O0p.m. National Service Talk 9. Oto 9.25p.m. NBS Newsreel ; Topical Talk 9.30 to 10. Op.m. Re-broadcast of Newsreel Such an arrangement would not be treatment for those who, while keenly a age in the war effort, desire some relaxation in the shape of entertainment and music.
