DEATH OF KING GEORGE VI
Sir-May I have a small corner of your valuable space to express the appreciation that I think many people feel for the excellent way in which the announcer of the NZBS handled the broadcasting of events connected with the death of the late King and the accession of Queen Elizabeth Il? Without at any time descending to emotionalism. they gave a very warm picture of events they were describing, with an occasional hint of the depth of feeling that must have been experienced, and made "the voice" somewhat less anonymous to .the listeners, They should be thanked for a job wel done.
GRATEFUL
(Wanganui).
Sir.-May I congratulate the Broadcasting Service on their excellent choice of recordings on the day that the news of His Majesty’s death was announced? The music was not only in keeping with the solemnity of the occasion but was also intrinsically of the highest quality.
APPRECIATIVE
(Wellington).
