"THE LILIAN DALE AFFAIR"
Sir-This is first-class: radio fare which leaves one enjoying the ‘many moments of suspense, but anxious to know the conclusion of an interesting story. All the world loves a lover and loves; too, the time when the villain is upended. I for one am longing to hear that smooth-tongued oily villain, Crosbie, unmasked and the comments of Christopher Dale when he finds out how he has been led by the nose, should be very forceful and interesting. Every week I expect satisfaction on these points, but the story takes another turn like Tennyson’s brook. Couldn’t we have a little more of the story each half-hour and a little less of that soft voice extolling in dulcet tones the virtues of a certain soap? The suspense is getting almost more than I can bear. I should hate not to live long enough to hear the end of the storv. $
