Sir.-May I offer my sympathy to "Young Farmer and His Wife" who write’ about "Early Morning Music" (Listener, October 15), There is a similar difficulty at lunch time, which could be my best time for listening. With crooners howling in agony at the YA stations, I tried 3ZB to find their idea of lunch time entertainment. Somebody was extolling the merits of someone’s gentle laxative. I turned past that, found no other stations, and turned back again, just in time to hear the words "Half an hour after taking." \ Let me recommend missing Lunch Music, but listen, if you can, to Mr. Jenner’s "Music for Schools," which follows, and is always interesting, and well worth hearing. I wish that I were more often able to hear it.

Sir-I heartily agree with "Young Farmer and His Wife" in his plea for better music and the destruction of trumpet players. It is no use saying we can switch to another station in the early morning because they are all the same, YA and ZB. Can we not have something more entertaining for the aarly marnine letanare?
