MORE HUMOUR
Sir,-May I be allowed to ‘add my Tequest to that of Sandy Powell (Timaru) for a little more humour in our radio programmes. We hear that visitors to this country pass remarks about the mournful expression on our faces. Well let them listen to most of our radio programmes at night and they will find one reason for it. We have four stations on™ the air every night in Auckland, but tune in to any one of them and you will hear the same mournful music. I do not wish to deprive people who like that soft of entertainment from listening to it; but surely, with four stations on the air at the same time, we could have one station which could cater for those who still like good old-fashioned British music and humour.
