Songs and Imitations by Ronald Gourley. A Cake for Grumble Groan ' (Christine Chaundler). Positive Percy and the Morse Message,' written and told by E. Le Breton Martin
THE names appearing in this programme are very familiar to all Children's Hour listeners. Ronald Gourley has always something new, but he has always room for old favourites as well, and in both types of item he is invariably popular. Probably no tune has ever ' caught on ' more swiftly and more thoroughly than his ' Dicky Bird Hop,' but his variations on Susie ' and his imitations of a musical box, a worn gramophone, and a barrelorgnn run the songster on the sycamore tree very close. Gather round, then, for another group of items by ' Uncle Ronald,' and you will also be fortunate enough to hear stories specially written for you by two authors whose popularity in the Children's Hour continues unabated.
