This morning H. R. Jukes comes to the microphone to tell of an exciting spell when he was out with a North Sea trawler. His ship was surrounded for days by giant tunny fish, feeding upon the offal thrown overboard, and upon the surface shoals of tiny mackerel which, from time to time, came across the path.

From 1933 to 1935, he played at the Regal, Kingston, giving in that period, over 200 broadcasts, in the course of which listeners heard his audiences joining in the popular choruses.
When he came to Beckenham, he was warned that the audiences there would not sing to his playing, but they soon succumbed to his opening-night threat, 'If you don't sing, I shall sing, and then you will wish you had sung !

Scored for one flute, one oboe, two clarinets, one trumpet, two horns, one bassoon, and strings, Wagner's ' Siegfried Idyll ' is one of the most perfectly constructed pieces of symphonic music ever written ', each bar being the inevitable outcome of its predecessor. The themes upon which this work is based are all taken from the love scene in the last act of Siegfried, with the exception of an old German lullaby which is introduced at various points in the work. The themes are ' Song of Peace ', ' Guardian of the World', ', ' Love's Determination', and A Flood of Splendour'.
