RADIO PLAY COMPETITION
Sir-The Editorial comment on my letter published in The Listener on December 13 gives an erroneous impression of its contents. I did not say that plays submitted became the property of the NZBS without payment, but that the ideas contained in them could do so. Had you quoted further from the rules of the competition you would have found this correct, unless I misunderstood them after very careful reading a number of times. With regard to plays with a New Zealand setting, I missed hearing the one quoted by you, but still contend that John Gundry’s play is not of a type that should be encouraged by the NZBS.

(There is nothing in the rules which would in any way confer on the NZBS the right to take any ideas from unsuccessful plays.--Ed.).
