Two New Zealand poets, James K. Baxter (left), of Wellington, and R. A. K. Mason, of Auckland, will be heard from YC stations at 7.30 p.m. on Wednesday, April 17, in an appreciation of A. R. D. Fairburn. R. A. K. Mason, who is of the same generation as A. R. D. Fairburn, will talk about the man he knew; James K. Baxter, one of the younger poets, will speak of the legacy he leaves. A reading of one of A. R. D. Fairburn's best-known poems, "To a Friend in the Wilderness," will follow these two short talks. It is particularly fitting that "To a Friend in the Wilderness" should be included in a broadcast tribute, for this poem had its first publication in a reading from 1YC in 1951. The reader is William Austin.
