8.45 Sunday evening talk 9. 0 Newsreel with Commentary 9.20-10.17 Music from_ the Theatre: Saint-Saens’ Opera "Samson and Delilah" The scene is the eity of Gaza, where the Israelites are under the heel of the Philistines. They offer prayers to the God of Israel, but Abimlech. the Philistine Governor, appears, and mocks and insults their God. Samson denounces him as a blasphemer. Samson, when attacked by Abimlech, kills him, while the Israelites put the Philis-

tines to flight. Philistine maidens then appear, headed by the beautiful Delilah, and dance before the victorious Israelites. Delilah employs every faseination to attract samson, who falls a victim to her charms. He accepts an invitation to visit her home in the Valley of Sorek. and while he is there, Delilah, who has been bribed by the High Priest of Dagon, persuades Samson to reveal the secret of his great strength. He resists her for a while, but at last he reveals it. Then Delilah calls the soldiers who have been hiding in the grounds to come forth and arrest him, after she has .shorn his locks, which he has revealed as the secret of his great strength. The Philistines put out both his eyes, ‘and like a slave, he is forced to grind corn at the mill. Then for the sport of the Philistines, who are once more masters of Gaza, Samson is dragged to the temple of Dagon. Delilah is there to taunt him, and the High Priest, remembering. the reason of the death of Abimlech, eries out that Dagan -is mightier than the God of Israel. Samson breathes a prayer to the God of. his fathers that for one moment he may be given back his former strength. Shaking himself free, he pseizes the two pillars which support the temple, and with his great strength sways them. The roof crashes down and buries him and all his enemies. 11. 0 LONDON NEWS 11.20 CLOSE DOWN ZINZO) DUNEDIN 1140 ke. 263 m. 6.
