Mr. JULIAN HUXLEY (Honorary Lecturer in Zoology and Animal Biology in the University of London)
Food provides Mr. Huxley with his first specific example of a social need to which scientific research is all important. He will describe tonight what he has seen in the last ten days at three food research centres at Edinburgh, Aberystwyth, and Cambridge, in which theoretical Mendelism is translated into practical plant and animal breeding. His talk will bring to light the way in which this important work is carried 0:1, organised, and financed, detailed knowledge of vital importance to every citizen that is not easily available.

Mr. S. P. B. MAIS
Relayed from America
(In co-operation with the National Broadcasting
Company of America)
Mr. S. P. B. Mais left Liverpool on September 23 for the most spectacular adventure in the short but eventful history of broadcasting. He landed in New York on October 1, and after spending three days in that city, went on to Washington and then to Jamestown. He broadcasts tonight probably from Lexington, Virginia, the scene of the first English settlement in North America. His job is to make the modern American scene -country, people, cities-live in the imagination of his listeners in this country. It is a gigantic, fascinating task that will need all the enthusiastic energy of the broadcaster who made ' The Unknown Island' and S 0 S ' two of the outstanding successes of British broadcasting. Mr. Mais will travel all over the United States between now and the end of the year. His next broadcast will be on October 20 from somewhere in Florida.
