RACE BROADCASTS.
Sir,-I would like to ask why so many Race .Broadcasts are interrupted for other broadcasts such as War News. Such can be received by those who desire from ary station, but the Race Broadcasts are of interest all over the country, and if not sent out from the Main Station cannot be received much further afield than the town where the races are being run. Why can’t the National Broadcasting Service alter for the largest proportion of its listeners, for I feel sure that over 75% of Saturday’s tadio listeners are race broadcast pattons. Racing is so popular that parties are arranged in most homes and public places, not in the town where the races are held, but from one end of the country to the other, and when the first, second, and third races are sent out from minor stations where they can be heard only a few miles away, the large army of listeners express their opinions of the station management rather fore
