Socks Hammerlock (Waimaie) writes: I am & constant reader of the "Radio Record," and enjoy reading letters in the "Home Forum" section. "Listener-in" asks i McCready has returned to second childhood, It appears as though "Listener-in" listens in more for the pleasure of finding fault than to the announcer’s descrip~ tion of the contest.

Most Important Off the Mat (Oamaru) writes: Regarding wrestling announcers, "Orucifix" is evidently trying to put me on the mat. When I referred to "Peter," I did not do so with the intention of belitting the the Auckland announcer, but I still maintain that Mr. Pope describes the holds yerfectly, which to my mind is the most important thing in announcing wrestling. I, for one, am prepared to grin and bear the present situation. Poeme _ ©.S. (Ohaupo) writes on "Listener. . Radio fans, *tis plain to see, Do not on programmes all agree.

Others prefer a tenor voice, Or even a basso is their choice. So "Listeners-in" should all be fair T, other fans who share the air, And not forget that "points of view" Differ as much as I from you.
