A programme for children under five
Nursery rhymes, stories, and music
' Foghorn to the Rescue I' is a new story about a favourite personality-for the foghorn that belongs to the big ship, The Empress, which sails across the sea to America, is indeed a personality-and the stories by Ruth Simonis , in which he figures, cannot be repeated often enough to satisfy most of our young listeners. They have heard how the foghorn caught a cold, and how Jim the ship's boy put him right, and they have been told how he was lost and found again, enjoying himself, not inappropriately, in the ship's dance band. On Wednesday and on Friday of this week Daphne Oxenford will tell these two stories once again, and on Thursday will come the new one already mentioned, in which the foghorn behaves with great common sense. Today and tomorrow the storyteller will be Dorothy Smith , and the stories ' The Little Green Gate ' by Amy Smith , and Candy, the lazy Kangaroo ' by Janet Lamb , while storytellers and nursery rhymes will be introduced each day by Catherine Edwards who is back again at the microphone for her second fortnight of presenting these programmes to the under-fives.

Script by Joan Carr-Jones
To be repeated tomorrow at 11.0 a.m. Last week Mrs. Morgan, determined not to let Mrs. Dale down, wrote to Mrs. Skeats and asked if she could go and take her place at Virginia Lodge. However, at the end of the week Mrs. Morgan was able to return because Susie was leaving hospital, and Mrs. Johnson agreed to have the twins back. Gwen and her mother went to Sandbourne for the day. In the evening, when Jenny was having dinner with Gwen and David, Gwen told her about the difficulty the Sandbourne Repertory Company were having in replacing a girl who had walked out * on them. Jenny went to Sandbourne and got the part, telling Sally she was going to stay with a friend. Mrs. Delaney, the principal of the drama school, telephoned Sally to say she knew Jenny was appearing at Sandbourne and that she would have to be expelled. David went to Sandbourne to fetch her back but he relented and agreed to let her appear for the first night.
