After a successful provincial tour of some 1,500 miles, H. Robinson Cleaver has returned to the South. Autographing sessions of his records have recently resulted in raising sums of money for various 'Spitfire Funds' in the North. The H. Robinson Cleaver Radio Club still carries on with over 1,000 members, and during the last two years has given £150 to various charities.

Here is a play by the author of the 'Our Elizabeth' sketches in which Hermione Baddeley recently broadcast, but this is a play of a very different kind - stark melodrama of the underworld of crime.

Bachelors v... Spinsters in a parlour game with a kitchen interest

Here is a parlour game from the West. It will take the form of questions on cookery, nutrition, and general culinary knowledge put by A.W. Ling (famous for his farming talks) to teams of bachelors and spinsters. Such questions as 'Is a brown egg more nutritious than a white one?' and 'What part of a pig does streaky bacon come from?' will be a test for competitors. This game should be amusing as well as instructive.
