A talk by Sir Raymond Unwin, L.L.D.
Illustrated by models and films.
An architect who has practised since 1896, Sir Raymond Unwin has just returned from an extensive tour in America, where he has been investigating town planning conditions. Amongst his many claims to fame is the fact that he was president of the R.I.B.A. from 1931 to 1933, and from 1929 to 1933 he was Chief Adviser to the Greater London Regional Town Planning Committee. It was he who laid out the first garden city at Letchworth, and Hampstead Garden Suburb.

with Hildegarde, Rudi Grasl, The Metaxa Girls (by arrangement with Meta Kaye)
In addition to the appearance of the Metaxa Girls, this evening there will be the first television performance at Alexandra Palace of Hildegarde. This world-famous American singer was discovered by Gus Edwards, and made several appearances with him. Before taking up singing she was a pianist in a cinema in Milwaukee, and toured in a road show. She came to London about three years ago and conquered it almost overnight. She had a principal part, theatre-goers will remember, in "Seeing Stars". Since then she has sung in theatres and cabarets all over Europe. In America she was a great success in a television show transmitted from Radio City.
