RONALD GOURLEY
Entertainer
Ronald Gourley has been described as ' The world's greatest blind pianist, siffieur, and composer '. He is one of the great radio favourites, especially with children. His broadcasts in the London Children's Hour go back to he very beginning, and he is always high up in Request Week.
This is the first broadcast, on the other hand, of the Four Crochets. Their forte is harmony singing after the style of the Mills Brothers, but with their own individuality. Charles Brewer first heard them on a gramophone record. Two popular radio acts are back on the air after a comparatively short absence. Johnson Clark , the sportsman ventriloquist, was on the air in January, and Vine and Moore, with their comedy songs and patter, last broadcast in April.
Toots Pounds, having already made a name on the music-halls, spent three years in Italy singing in opera. She returned last year to broadcasting and several concerts in this country. She was in Austria for a short time and gave some popular concerts in Vienna. Since her enormously successful broadcast act with Robert Chisholm in June, she has produced a brand new act. It has met with great success and they are shortly to appear at the Palladium.

Item 5
MASSED BANDS of the Seventeen Regiments in the Southern Command enter the arena to a Slow March ' Preobajenski '—one which was presented in manuscript by the late Czar of Russia as Colonel of the Regiment to the 2nd Dragoons, the Royal Scots Greys, and has never previously been played by any assemblage of Massed Bands in this country. After the first movement the Bands break into a quick march ' Action Front', by Blankenburg, changing to ' Sing as we go ' before they halt to render Hero'd's ' Zampa '. Their exit is made to Mornay's 56th Brigade March, for which special side-drum parts have been written.

This is followed by the Last Post, the Evening Hymn, "The Day Thou gavest, Lord, is ended", and "God Save the King".
