More Halliday Stories
HILDREN who have enjoyed the Halliday and Son broadcasts will welcome the news that a new series, The Halliday Stories, is to be heard from the main National stations. They start in the Children’s Session from 3YZ at 5.0 p.m. this Friday (May 16) and then begin at intervals of about three weeks from 4YZ, 4YA, 3YA, 2YA, 1YZ, 2YZ and 1YA, This new series is similar to Halliday and Son, and should especially interest children aged about 11 to 13. Sitting by the fireside, John Halliday (played by Keith Eden) has a story each evening for his son Michael. Mr. Halliday himself tells only part of the story -the rest is presented in dramatised form. There are a hundred and four quarter-hour programmes in the series. They include tales of adventure such as "Four Months on an Ocean Raft". and "Henry Morgan, Pirate," lives of famous people, from St. Francis of Assisi to Sir Malcolm Campbell, stories of construction from the Great Wall of China to the Brooklyn Bridge, and other programmes on such varied subjects as "How Playing Cards Began," "The Coast Guard Patrol," "The Greatest Thief in History" and "The Mosquito Stow- away." ¢
