British History
1. 'The Britons of the South '
RHODA POWER
This term Rhoda Power , who has a rare gift of bringing the past to life, is to tell schools about the history of Britain from Norman to Roman times. Her medium is the microphone; her method is her own. Sometimes she says what she has to say in the form of a story, sometimes in that of a play or, again, simply in a talk. Today she is to take Schools back to Britain fifty or sixty years before the birth of Christ. They will hear something of the manners and customs of those who lived in the southern parts of the island at the time of Julius Caesar's visit-

' Living Things-Their Forms and Parts'
1. 'On being Alive'
A. D. PEACOCK , D.Sc., F.R.S.E., Professor of Natural History in the University of St. Andrews
Biology deals with living things-plants, animals, and man. In many ways the three may differ, but in this they are alike : all three must have air, light, water, food, and a modicum of warmth if they are to survive. All, too, are victims ot disease ; all nounsn in the right surroundings and fail if conditions are wrong; all reproduce their kind, and all grow old and decay. Biologists, therefore, are students of all three-plants, animals, and man.
The idea in this series is to see how we are built, how we function, and how we may keep well; and at the same time to do the same with plants and animals. Some of the broadcasts will be given by Dr. Garry, Professor of Physiology at the University of St. Andrews; others by Dr. Peacock, Professor of Natural History in the same University, who is to give the opening talk today.
He is not a Scot, but a North countryman who, before the war, was Government Entomologist in Nigeria, where he carried out valuable research in connection with that amazing insect, the Termite or white ant. This will be his first broadcast to Schools south of the Border, though he is well known in Scottish Schools broadcasting.

J. A. SCOTT WATSON (Professor of Rural
Economy, University of Oxford)
Tonight Professor Scott Watson will bring to the microphone Dr. F. C. Minett , of the Animal Pathology Research Institute of the Royal Veterinary College. Dr. Minett is well known for his researches into animal disease and has lately been making an intensive study of mastitis in dairy cows. He 'will deal with this in his talk and will also discuss the present position in regard to tuberculosis and contagious abortion in dairy herds. His talk should be of great interest to all dairy farmers.
