"ISRAEL IN EGYPT"
Sir,-To those radio listeners interested in the broadcast of Istael in Egypt on June 8, I should like to explain that I. was unable to appear owing to illness contracted on May 30. I make this explanation because, although my name was advertised in The Listener and in the radio column of The Press of June 8, the 3YA radio broadcast did not even state that I was being replaced, when announcing the tenor soloist. I might mention that on Saturday, June 4, a
North Island station made it clear to its listeners that, because of indisposition, I had to be replaced as soloist for the Royal Wellington Choral Union." That statement earned my grateful appreciation. ‘
THOMAS E.
WEST
(Christchurch).
(The following comment has been supplied by the acting Station Manager of 3YA: "Station announcements made before the broadcast gave the names of the four soloists taking part in the performanée. ,It is regretted that the reason for the substitution of the tenor soloist was not mentioned in connectiort with the broadcast."’)
