Special Assignment
‘Max MALLENSON, Foreign Officer undercover agent and "man of many faces," is the central figure of Special Assignment, a new adventure serial now playing from 2XA and 2XG. Perhaps the | best-known of his faces is that of Rich--ard Davies (below) who plays the part 'in this Australasian Radio Production. | As Mallenson he crops up in various ) parts of the globe doing a kind of Superman job in the cause of British diplo-
macy. In the first of the self-contained | three-episode stories of the serial he crops up at a "Tavern in Tangier." His alliterative progress makes him later a "Banker in Bangkok," a "Sailor in Shanghai,’ a "Playboy in Paris," a "Gambler in Genoa," and, of course, a "Beggar in Berlin." Both stations broadcast the show at 7.30 p.m., 2XA on Wednesdays and Saturdays and 2XG on Mondays and Fridays.
