THE LIGHT PROGRAMME
SIR,—I am sorry to have to trouble you for the second week running, but really Quoodle cannot be allowed to get away with it.
The argument concerns the proportion of enter- tainment music included in the Light Programme. At present, as for a long time past, music of this kind is provided for about twelve and a half hours of the Light's seventeen-and-a-half-hour day. In my letter last week I gave an estimate that when the programme is extended it will broadcast entertain- ment for up to fifteen hours of a twenty-and-a-half- hour day. Quoodle, who evidently knows little about the Light. mocks me for saying that no fundamental change is involved. Your readers will now judge which of us is talking sense.
