No Canvassing
A comedy for radio by E. Eynon Evans
Applying for the vacant post of Headmaster is one thing: going round the County Councillors to canvass for it is quite another. Or so Huw Morris thinks; but his wife Delyth is not burdened with any such scruples, and he is driven to threatening that whatever is done by her in the way of canvassing will be undone by him!
