9:00 THE 1962 REITH LECTURES This Island Now
Each year, the BBC invites an acknowledged
authority in a particular field to undertake some
study or original research and to give listeners the
results in a series of broadcasts. They are known
as 'The Reith Lectures' after the BBC's first
Director-General. This year's lectures are given by
G. M. Carstairs, Professor of Psychological Medi-
cine in the University of Edinburgh, and honorary
director of a Medical Research Council unit which
is concentrating on certain aspects of psychiatric
illness. Examining contemporary British society
from the viewpoint not of the economist or the
politician but of the psychiatrist and anthropolo-
gist. Professor Carstairs particularly concerns him-
self with the inter-action of tradition, social
environment and personality. He considers in
biological terms and in the light of modern psy-
chology and sociology what has happened to the
British nation since the beginning of the century.
This is the first time since their inception in 1948
that these lectures have been devoted to a subject
of this nature. They are heard Tuesday, Wednes-
day and Thursday evening in this Folio. Tonight's
topic is 'StabiUty and Change in Social Environ-
ment'. Feb. 6
9:30 ADDENDA TO THE REITH LECTURES A
reading of two items from the London newspaper,
the Sunday Observer, concerning the Reith Lec-
tures given by Professor G. M. Carstairs. The first
is a news report and the second is an article
entitled 'What Would Lord Reith Say?' by Barbara
Wootton, distinguished sociologist, author and
ex-member of the BBC Board of Governors.

7:45 PHENOMENOLOGY William Earle, Profes-

author of Objectivity (Noonday) discusses Ed-
mund Husserl (1859-1938). Professor Earle and
Cecil Hemley, novelist, editor and critic, examine
the views of the German epistemologist and their

8:30 SCHOOL FOR SCANDAL The Tennent Pro-
duction Company version of the play by Richard
Brinsley Sheridan, directed by John Gielgud. The
cast features Ralph Richardson, John Gielgud,
Geraldine McEwan and Gwen Ffrangcon-Davies.
This play ranks among the most brilliant successes
in English theatrical literature. Though it lacks
the poetic genius of Shakespeare, the nonsensical
fantasy of Oscar Wilde, and the scholarly classical
richness of Congreve, it reflects exactly the par-
ticular kind of society and manners in the London
of the 1770's when it was written. The plot is
founded on malice, simple wit and good nature
— and reflects the morality and sentimentality of
the time. Both Lady Teazle and Charles Surface
are charming and reckless lighthearted characters
— both are victims of their own rashness and both,
by the time the play is over, promise to reform.

How to Harass Radio Station
The Senate Internal Security Subcom-
mittee appears to be bent on harassment
in its investigation of the Pacifica Foun-
dation, the non-profit organization thai
relies on audience contributions to operate
radio stations WBAI in New York ; KPFA
in San Francisco and KPFK in Los An-
geles.
In opening the inquiry on Thursday
Senator Thomas J. Dodd of Connecticut
said that the subcommittee was not in-
terested in knowing whether the program-
ing of radio stations actually had come
under Communist influence. Rather, he
said, it would try to find out whether
there had been "infiltration" which made
such influence "possible." Under this
bizarre criterion, the subcommittee is evi-
dently asserting the right to inquire into
the background and beliefs of everyone
working for an organ of public opinion. In
such an atmosphere the obvious conse-
quence would be an environment in which
many individuals might hesitate to speak
their thoughts. Anticipatory censorship
often can be far worse than blue penciling
in the open.
The "reports" of possible infiltration of
Pacifica followed the station's presenta-
tion of a disenchanted agent of the Fed-
eral Bureau of Investigation who was
critical of J. Edgar Hoover. However,
Pacifica has included a Communist com-
mentator, identified as such, among its
many speakers of varying political hues.
But if Pacifica is guilty of untoward
as distinct from unorthodox behavior in
broadcasting, either in the matter of con-
cealment of ownership or use of the air-
waves for one-sidedly propagandistic pur-
poses, ample remedies lie at hand under
the established powers of the Federal Com-
munications Commission.
On the basis of the only pertinent evi-
dence — what it has actually broadcast
over the air — Pacifica's worst sin appears
to have been the dissemination of off-
beat ideas that have angered some people
and annoyed others. The subcommittee's
inquiry looks like an attempt to make
Pacifica conform to a concept of speech
that is pleasing rather than free.

sional (sic.) Orientation', i.e. connotatove mean-
ings which — without fact or reason — we give to
certain phrases. The title of the program comes
from Hayakawas contention that we talk too
much; like a juke box we sound off whenever
someone puts a dime in the slot. The talk was
recorded in San Francisco and was based mainly
upon chapters in Professor Hayakawa's book,

8:45 RICHARD U The Life and Death of King Rich-
ard II is a play in which the words themselves and
the speaking of them are of the first importance.
Much of the writing is formal, patterned and
elaborate: verbal music, which cannot and will
not be reduced to the bare notes of a prose tale.
At the same time, it is a play of vivid action,
youthful and headlong. In this BBC World Theatre
production, produced by John Richmond, the
words have been left as much as possible to speak
for themselves, without much recourse to 'effects,'
sparingly assisted by some admirable music by
John Hotchkis. John Gielgud plays King Richard,
Ralph Richardson is John of Gaunt. Feb. 13
