On the outskirts of Arusha in East Africa Johnny Morris and the Carr-Hartley family assemble a collection of African animals for zoos of the world.
From the South and West

This week Johnny Morris visits Arusha in East Africa to see the animal-holding camp of Carr-Hartley, and to help in the actual collecting of animals in the wild. Strictly controlled at Government level, and carefully planned by Carr-Hartley and his sons, the expedition Johnny joined brings back a zebra, a secretary bird, and a giraffe. With more specialist attention and with an entirely new idea of zoos - the releasing of African wildlife in an enclosed section of an English country estate - these animals will probably live longer and more happily than they would in the areas where they were caught. For there civilisation and land cultivation will soon deny them their natural home.

What new ideas are being produced as a result of the ferment in our Universities?

This is the first of a new series of live programmes in which dominating issues of our time are discussed by national and international figures with members of a British university
In this programme Robin Day questions The Rt. Hon. Roy Jenkins, M.P. Chancellor of the Exchequer, before an audience of faculty, staff, and students of the University of East Anglia.
Mr. Jenkins's ideas on the future of Britain's democratic institutions will be the starting-point of the discussion. He will take up the problem of participation by the citizen in the decision-making processes of government, including the role of students in the running of their universities.
