Running Riot - which has been running riotously at the Gaiety Theatre since September - is the fourth successive show there in which Leslie Henson, Roy Royston, Fred Emney, Richard Hearne, and Louise Browne have been providing London and its visitors with laughter. Tonight's broadcast will include at least two high-spot comedy moments.
The arrival of Crumpet and Coe (Henson and Emney) at the Hon. Mrs. Dott's garden party is funny in itself, but when they and Burkinshaw (Richard Hearne) discover a bag packed with Mrs. Dott's valuable collection of clocks, which have been stolen by Black Dan, the gypsy, and proceed to hide them in their clothing, the fun becomes uproarious.
The other high-spot moment is Leslie Henson singing breathlessly endless verses of 'Our Town Band' bars behind the chorus.

' Torpedoed in Spats '
The Hon. H. B. Hermon-Hodge
Tonight's speaker had the strange experience of going to the Grand National one day, and the following day, while still wearing the same spats that he wore at Aintree, of being torpedoed at sea. He was on board the Falaba, the first passenger ship to be torpedoed in the Great War, bound for West Africa where he held a Government post.
When the Fa/aba was struck,
Hermon-Hodge took the wise course of not entering one of her boats, a number of which capsized with great loss of life ; instead he took to the sea in his cork jacket, and, after a long icy swim, succeeded in attracting the attention of a passing drifter-this just as he was about to loosen the tabs of his jacket in order to drown the more quickly.

Hindemith's ballet Nobilissima Visione was composed for World Art Inc. and was first performed under the composer's direction by the Ballet Russe de Monte Carlo in London last July, with choreography by Leonide Massine and book by Massine and Hindemith himself.
The ballet is in four scenes. The first shows Francis as a young and wealthy noble contemptuously spurning a beggar but afterwards repenting and giving him alms. In the second scene Francis, goes off to the wars, but is disgusted by the brutal behaviour of the soldiers. He is left alone, and an allegorical figure representing Poverty enters ; his conversion to the ideals of poverty, chastity, and humility is symbolised. In the next scene his Christian powers are indicated by his taming of a bear which threatened a terrified community, and the ballet ends with a symbolic dance of St. Francis and Poverty surrounded by his ' little brothers and little sisters '.
