ANDROCLES' LION is a self-contained episode from the French radio serial A Visit to the Paradise of Famous Animals. In this, one of the sharpest and wittiest of the stories, the truth of the legend is at last revealed-by the lion.

This regular Friday meeting of poets (whose work recently featured in A Group Anthology) was initiated at Cambridge in the early 1950s by Philip Hobsbaum and has now taken place in London for about eight years, first in Stockwell and then in Chelsea-from where tonight's programme will be broadcast. The poems to be read, some of which are printed in the current issue of The Listener (dated August 22), will be discussed one at a time by the poets at the meeting. It is expected that about three will be read and discussed while the programme is actually on the air. Introduced by GEORGE MACBETH
