AUCKLAND listeners will be pleased to learn that one of their favourite sessions-""Musical Competitions with Eric Bell"-is back on the air again. For the first broadcast, more than 300 entries were received from all over the Auckland Province-and there were even three from Nelson, and one from Mosgiel, Dunedin. The problems in music embrace musical letters, hidden proverbs, laddergraphs, word squares, crosswords and acrostics — a different one each week. In the quarter-hour, Eric Bell manages to play as many as 42 different tunes. "Musical Competitions with Eric Bell" is broadcast from 1ZB at 6.30 p.m. each Saturday.
