LIONEL MCCOLVIN
Lionel McColvin is Head Librarian at Hampstead and Chairman of the Librarian Association. Listeners can thus expect to hear a talk by a man who knows the subject inside out. Public Libraries are patronised by approximately seven million people, and Lionel McColvin has one or two interesting theories to account for the millions who don't use them. One reason, he' thinks, is that the word ' free' as applied to libraries savours too much of the charity institution-a ridiculous notion, for many of these hypersensitive readers are ratepayers and have to contribute to their local library's upkeep. But. this is only one intriguing point of many in a talk that will appeal to all book-lovers.
This show hails from Germany, where it was specially written for the radio. In' carrying out the adaptation for an English audience, Selwyn Jepson , the. well-known novelist, short story and film scenario writer, makes his début in the field of broadcasting. Another notable feature is that Greta Keller -she came over from America specially to fulfil this engagement-and Ronald Hill both play roles that they fill in real life: one is a Continental cabaret star and the other is a composer. Hindle Edgar is a popular artist in the provinces, and is known to listeners for his work with the Air-do-Wells ; the composer of the music, Wilhelm Grosz , is well known in this country for his ' Isle of Capri'.
