FRANK WHITAKER
This afternoon Mr. Frank Whitaker , who introduced this series and gave the talk on York, is to discuss Yorkshire folk songs, older folk songs, and less well known perhaps, than ' On Ilkla moor baht hat'. He will talk of the Holmfirth Anthem and the Swaledale Dirge, and explain what the Yorkshire sword dance means. Finally, he will tell listeners about some curious dialect expressions and various old customs that have survived.
