£50 PRIZE OFFERED IN "MYSTERY NIGHT" AT 1YA.

a Ay ve Ny NDER the auspices of the IYA Musical and Dramatic Advisory Committee, a Mystery Night Programme is to be broadcast from 1YA on, Wednesday, August 29, and a prize cf an Edison Phonograph, valued at £50, is offered to the person who sends in the most correct information concerning the artists who are performing. In next week’s issue of. the "Radio Record" the mystery night will be fully explained, but, broadly, the proposal is that, while the items will be announced, there will be no information given as to the performers. In several instances these "performers" will be electrically-reproduced phonograph records, and the problem facing listeners will be to tell whether they are records or the human voice. With such a handsome prize as a £50 Edison phonograph, the IYA Mystery Night programme will arouse the keenest interest wherever IYA is heard. The necessary coupons will appear in the next issue of the "Radio Record’ and in the three Auckland papers of August 25.
