Sir -A nice article on the Royal Concert at Dunedin is marred by the use of a phrase both discourteous and lacking in perception. I note this is happily set right in the caption to the pictures. One cannot imagine Miss Dora Drake or Mr. Warwick Braithwaite, for instance, recalling that memorable occasion in terms of Her Majesty the Queen being "introduced to them," but I am sure that they and everyone else, from the Director of Broadcasting to the school-girl choristers, will remember with pride and gratification that, having played their admirable part in an enjoyable evening’s entertainment, they had the honour of being presented to their Sovereign.
