The composition of this programme greatly depends upon whether a depression over Iceland moves north or south, but the concert will probably include the following items:
After-Dinner Speeches of the Geoplanurian Society
A Short Destructive Address by Somebody Who Doesn't Matter
Music to Suit Various Heights of Brow
The Microphone Will Wander Afar
Item No. 5
The Sixth Item Almost Finished
We leave you, we hope, bursting with charity towards our efforts here and hereafter

It is no uncommon experience for a Manchester citizen, wending his way to business on Shrove Tuesday, to be confronted by an awe-inspiring pirate, a red-nosed clown, or a terrifying highway-man, all rattling money-boxes and demanding money. Each year on this one day the city is invaded by thousands of weirdly garbed figures, who have escaped from the lecture-rooms of the University to make a gigantic collection in aid of Hospital Charities. Each time the amount of the collection increases, and last year the magnificent total of £6,000 was reached.
As in past years, the Manchester Broadcasting Station again offers its microphone to the students on this occasion.
