A Running Commentary by R. C. LYLE , at the Grand Stand and R. V. LONG , at the Parade Ring from Town Moor Racecourse,
Doncaster
The St. Leger is the last of the five ' classic ' races of the year, all limited to three-year-olds. It is open to both colts and fillies.
The first St. Leger was run at
Doncaster in 1776, but the race had to wait a couple of years for its present title, which commemorates its originator, Colonel St. Leger. Only six entrants lined up for the original race, which was quite a minor feature of the usual September Doncaster meeting.

THE BBC THEATRE ORCHESTRA
Conducted by MARK H. LUBBOCK
Production by FELIX FELTON
' Episode' will be broadcast again tomorrow in the Regional programme at 8.30
The Vienna of Episode is not altogether the Vienna of waltzes, Vienna in lilac-time, but still Vienna—where the people are gay and charming and sentimental, and things can be relied on to come right in the end.
The heroine is an art student whose mother has lost all her money. The other characters are a charming old gentleman, his quiet, competent wife, their sons' tutor (who plays a very important part indeed), and-a halfwitted parlourmaid. There are all sorts of complications. The nice old gentleman gets into a hole, and the tutor, helping him out, gets into a worse one.
Constance Cummings first went on the stage at sixteen and appeared on the London stage in 1934. Since 1931 she has been in films, two of her outstanding successes being in Movie Crazy and Channel Crossing.
