Nemesis
"THE quality of the music offered in ‘" 1ZM’s 7 p.m. Orchestral session, ebbs and flows from time to time like the temperature chart of an undulant fever
patient. When I mentioned it in this page a few weeks ago, the quality was high, and now that it has fallen as low as in the past two weeks I blame myself a little-an ancient Greek would have known better than to invite the wrathful notice of the gods by drawing attention to his good fortune. At the present time an hour composed mainly of Suppe, Eric Coates, Johann Strauss, and Chabrier, may include a little Walton or'a Mozart overture, or it may not -there is no way of finding out except by keeping tuned in to the station, and it doesn’t always seem worth it. If there is considered policy behind the present arrangement, it is difficult to reconcile it with the fact that during the same hour 1YX is busily engaged in broadcasting music of a very similar vintage.
