"Greek Drama" Lectures Surprise Listener
To the Editor Sir,-It was with considerable surprise that I read the comments of your Auckland correspondent in regard to Mr. D’Arcy Cresswell’s lectures on "Greek Drama," It seems to me in extremely bad taste and of extreme impertinence that listeners, who object to a slahgy: style of Wnglish over the air, should be stigmatised as "highbrow and snobbish." We are constantly being urged to perfect our Wnglish, but one does not feel that Mr. Cresswell’s lectures will be of any great value in that direction. Should we be fortunate enough to hear Professor Adams again from 4YA I can recommend his broadcasts to Mr. Cresswell’s notice. From Professor Adams one is assured of an engrossing talk delivered in unquestionable style and faultless neglish.-I am. etc..
HIGHBROW
Mosgiel.
