ANSWERS TO CORRESPONDENTS
Pakeha (Auckland): Unnamed by his own request. Mrs J. Silvester (Auckland): The interest and advantage of being able to discuss the selection with a selector have not occurred to you? Mary Aldrich (Wellington): Thank you. Will pass it on. A. C. Gordon (Taihape): Your complaint should have been addressed to the Department of Education, which reprinted in the School Journal Ian Seraillier’s comical verses redressing the hare-and-tortoise story. If it is wrong to find humour in tales of trickery, the world has been wrong, and leading its children astray, since the first tales were told. The drink in this wicked poem, by the way, is tea, D.j.P. (Timaru): You jump a long way to your conclusions from your "few instances,’’ which are here commented on in order: (1) Not "interrupted half-way through," as you say, but about a minute from the end of a work timed to play 12 minutes 42 seconds. This was faulty presentation, however, and is regretted. (2) Standard affected by the absence of the leader in a sudden and serious emergency. That in application to 3YA; your opinion of the 4YA performance is noted. (3) Your reference to the ‘habit’ of interrupting Sunday afternoon programmes for that purpose is not verified by the records. If you’ will give examples. they will be investigated.
