5-' How speech sounds change '
HAROLD ORTON '
Continuing his series on ' Our English Speech ', Harold Orton this afternoon will describe how English speech sounds have changed through the centuries. The deduction of old English pronunciation from a study of the phonetic spelling of later writers throws an additional light of realism on to the lives of past Englishmen.
Experts have a pretty good idea of what Anglo-Saxon sounded like, and know positively how words were pronounced in later periods of English history. The broadcast will be illustrated by records, and listeners in schools will be asked to co-operate by repeating various sounds.

Leone Sinigaglia was bofn in Turin in 1868. He studied at the Liceo Musicale and later went to Vienna where he made the acquaintance of Goldmark and Dvorak. The latter invited him to Prague for a year to study with him as his private pupil. In 1899 Sinigaglia returned to Turin and soon established himself as a composer of great gifts. His chief champion in England has been Sir Henry Wood , who has produced several of his orchestral works including the popular suite ' Piedmont ', which has also been sponsored by Toscanini both in Italy and America.
Much of Sinigaglia's music is directly influenced by his native folk song, of which he has made a deep study. Among his chamber music is the Cello Sonata to be heard this afternoon, which was composed in 1923. It is a well-written, interesting work, showing, like most of the composer's music, the influence of his native folk song.

' Restrictions of the Press '
Sir Stanley Reed , M.P.
Tonight's speaker in this series was for many years editor of the Times of India, and is in charge of the bill for the amendment of the Libel Laws now before Parliament. Just before Christmas Sir Stanley Reed took part in a broadcast debate on ' The Freedom of our Press '. Newspapers are not free to ' print what they like '. Two kinds of restrictions exist. The Libel Laws, the Official Secrets Act and so on impose limits from without. And the editor has often to decide for himself whether to print this or that is in the public interest.
