N.Z. Children Broadcast for UN
JURING a "children’s week" held in the United States of America early last month as part of the United Nations appeal for aid for children’ in Europe and the Far East, recorded messages from four New Zealand children were played at a UN conference at Lake Success and broadcast throughout the States, The children were Terry Browne and Philip Waldron (Wellington) and Takamaiterangi Wineera and Heni Te Waka Keni (Porirua). These recordings were made by the NZBS and sent to the USS. by air-mail. | A letter received by the NZBS from George Ivan Smith, Chief of the English Section, Radio Division of UN, expresses thanks for the "splendid cooperation of the NZBS," and states the New Zealand messages were a highlight of the programme. "The New Zealand messages," it states, "were assed in different ways during the morning and afternoon meetings — in addition, one was included in a half-hour programme, fed coast-to-coast on a U.S. network. Some of the other messages were also used in our shortwave transmissions to Europe and Asia. Everybody was impressed by the ‘spontaneity and naturalness of the production,"
