'Bunkle Went for Six'
Another of the Bunkle books by M. Pardoe
Adapted for broadcasting by Bertha Lonsdale
4—' Rescue and Capture '
Produced by Trevor Hill
During the enquiries which Jill and Bunkle were making about the boat-train shooting incident, Bilau was kidnapped, drugged, and taken aboard a yacht by Samuelson and his confederate, Max. The de Salis family had no clue as to what had happened to him. so relief that the Colonel was safe was cancelled out by anxiety about Bilau, and by indications that they were all being spied upon. To evade the unknown watchers, Jill, Bunkle, and Belinda decided to go down the old smugglers' passage leading from the cellars of Marsh House out to the creek and have a picnic in their sailing dinghy.

The Future for Milk
A discussion between
Raymond Broster and R. A. Pepperall
The total sales of milk off farms in England and Wales last year exceeded the 1939 figure by some forty-three per cent., and this year's total will be even greater. Is milk production being overdone, and can the present level of sales be maintained? These and other questions exercising the mind of the dairy farmer at the present time are discussed by Raymond Broster , a well-known Cheshire milk producer, and R. A. Pepperall , Secretary of the Milk Marketing Board of England and Wales.
