1YA Musical Committee

rTHE 1YA Musical Committee at its last meeting discussed at length the proposed One Act Play Competition for which some entries had already been received. It was felt that a short talk should put over the air by Mr. F. McCalum, explaining the details in ¢onnection with the play, and it was decided to recommened the company accordingly. The university students’ delegate advised that arrangements had been completed with the station for the broadcast of a debate, in’ accordance with the committee’s previous resolution, the play having been arranged for January 9, 1929. The Radio Broadcasting Company submitted an outline of a play which had been broadcast in America with success, and after considerable discus sion the committee decided to recommend that the. play be broadcast, as it was felt that the particular performance would be of exceptional interest to listeners. A suggestion was also made that a "Maori Night" be held, and after discussion the suggestion was approved by the committee, and it was decided to recommend the company accordingly. The committee decided to meet again on February 10, 1929.
