The curtain rises on an Eastern market place, even though this is a Varsity Extravaganza some attempt should be made to capture the Glamour of the East. For example, the stage drapings and seta should be brightly coloured, and so as not to mislead the audience a sign should be affixed to the backcloth carrying in crazy lettering the name "Bagdad". Up stage to the audience's left is an exceedingly Eastern tower. A platform (suitable for meetings) is back centre.

The Faithful are on bended knees with arms and faces lifted towards tower. After the applause of the audience dies down (sic) the Muezzin bobs up with a strictly Aunt Daisy "Good Morning Everybody". The Faithful prostrate themselves, and at the same time a 2ZB sign on top of tower commences to flash on and off and continues until the Muezzin retires.

Muezzin

"A man is but a man e'en though
He walks in motly rags from a chain store,
Tis not the silken gown the ribald show
That counts -
A man's a man although however poor
As long as he has kept a smiling heart,
And walks along Bob Semple's better roads
With confidence because his mind is pure,
And he has two bob left to buy four more."

Now I like the thought behind that poem because even although the poems I quote may not appeal to all highbrows still I recite them because I feel that after all a man needs only a smile in his heart and a bottle of Tui in his pocket. And a smile in your heart is of course brought by Bidomak because Bidomak cures heartburn, conquers indigestion and gives that contented feeling that every man desires - 1/6 a small bottle 3/6 a large bottle and 7/6 family size - white or pink which ever you prefer. And now I'd love to play you a record - "My Canary has circles Under His Eyes" because it has a message that means something, but unfortunately my staff is along the road helping the man in the ditch.

So the man in the Ditch will be Happy and Free And I leave you to listen to 2ZB .
