Rhoda Power
Last week you heard of the changes that were coming over the towns of England with the introduction of factories less than 150 years ago; today, in the first dramatic interlude of the term, you are to hear of the changes that were coming over the countryside.
The enclosure and cultivation of common fields and wasteland led to the rhyme: 'It is a sin in man or woman To steal a goose from off a common, But he doth sin with less excuse, That steals a common from the goose!' Just as the people protested against machinery, so they protested against enclosures. They had nowhere to graze their cows and geese.
This little play is in two parts. The village squire calls a meeting of villagers to discuss enclosures. The majority want to send a petition to Parliament to authorise the procedure. The case against enclosures is ably put by a yeoman, but he is outvoted and the squire gets his authorisation. In the second episode you will hear from the writings of a clergyman who lived in those days something of the hardships the enclosure of the commonlands caused the poor villagers.

Delight in Poetry: Choral Poetry—1
Leila Davies
This is the first of Miss Leila Davies's talks this term, which are to be upon choral poetry. To illustrate her talk today some of the following poems will be read: 'Jabberwocky' from 'Alice Through the Looking Glass' by Lewis Carroll; 'Weathers' by Thomas Hardy; 'Fear no More' from 'Cymbeline'; 'War-Song of the Saracens' by James Elroy Flecker; 'Song for St Cecilia's Day' by John Dryden; chorus from 'Endymion', Book IV by John Keats; and Psalm XXIV.

Orchestra:
Symphony No. 3 in F: 1. Allegro con brio; 2. Andante; 3. Poco allegretto; 4. Allegro - Dvorak

Like Brahms, Dvorak did not venture upon the difficult task of writing a symphony until he felt sure of his powers. His first three symphonies were composed during the years 1874-5. They show a maturity of technique and thought and spontaneity of invention that make it difficult to understand why they are so generally neglected today, when romantic music of the nineteenth century is so high in popular esteem.

Dvorak's Symphony No. 3 in F is a happily conceived work full of melodic charm and rhythmic vigour. It is dedicated to Hans von Bulow who in a letter of thanks to the composer said: 'A dedication from you who - next to Brahms - are the most God-inspired composer of the day, is a higher distinction than any kind of decoration bestowed by a prince; I accept this honour with the heartiest thanks'.

PHILEMON

J. A. Scott Watson (Professor of Rural Economy, University of Oxford)
Science has done a good deal lately to lighten the labour of making the earth bring forth fruit. The battle against weeds, insect pests, and plant diseases will, of course, go on as long as farming. But a good deal of progress has been made in improving the weapons that the farmer can command. This evening Professor Scott Watson will deal with recent research work on this subject.

Tchaikovsky always considered 'The Sleeping Beauty', written in 1889, when he was at the height of his power, his best ballet. As a whole it has indeed proved the most popular, for 'Nutcracker' is better known by the delicious concert suite of numbers selected from it than as a stage-work. The 'Russian Waltz King' certainly never wrote a more haunting waltz than this in 'The Sleeping Beauty'.
