Sir,-Hamish G, Hay in your May 23 issue considers that the YA stations are lowering their standards of broadcasting by the relaying. of. wrestling matches. Furthermore he terms the. sport as nothing but hair-pulling, etc. Does the writer consider the country people or others like myself who like to listen to those broadcasts, because we are unable to witness them? I suppose he would have the condemned stations provide a classical programme or suchlike or even the 9.0 p.m. news which would normally be broadcast. Broadcasting has 21 stations listed for the benefit of listeners. Could not one of these satisfy his tastes for an evening’s enter-
tainment?
