Back to Normal
HEN life began to return to normal on January 3, one of the most pleasant manifestations was the reinstatement of the afternoon Classical Hour from 1YA, which included on this day the Brahms Piano Concerto in B Flat. Those who enjoy these hours were probably more conscious than anyone else (except perhaps the harassed tramways staff) of the fact that most days of the previous eight had been given over to racing and cricket meetings. Our newspapers have been full of reports of thas 3 events held in most of our towns, but The Listener gives no indication that elsewhere these have had first claim on the air; from the printed programmes it would seem that on all these afternoons the Classical Hours were held as usual in the other three main centres, Admittedly it is not easy to find out what most people want, nor to decide which of the various sections should have first consideration, but it would be
interesting to know on what basis it was determined that in Auckland sport should come first.
