JUNIOR ANGLE
A DANISH adage has it that children and drunken folk speak the truth, Certainly their frankness often startles the sober adult. Drunken folk not being allowed on the air, 2ZA’s production staff recently decided to see what the children had to offer. The result was Junior Angle, a children’s forum which has startled the organizers with the* frankness of its views. The session, which is broadcast at 5.0 p.m. on the firstvand third Sundays in each month, brings together eight children from one 6f. Palmerston North’s primary or intermediate schools. Typical questions discussed are: "Do you think homework--is necessary?" "What do you consider an ideal holiday?" and ‘Describe ways in which Palmerston North can be made a more beautiful city." When a child’s imagination and ambitions are concentrated on an ideal holiday the result is anything from Rotorua to the Riviera, from the Sounds to San Francisco. And the suggestions for beautifying Palmerston North could well be noted by town planners anywhere. The picture shows Junior Arigle’s question-master, Bob Irvine. and a greup of children from the Palmerston North Central School. who will" give their opinions in the broadcast of September 6.
