Her program opened witb "The Way You Smile" and continued with selections from the thirties. t is sur- prising how some of those son gs have beld up over the periodof time.

Moles and mice venture out on the ice and thus become easy prey. t happened with this Snowy for ft flew off with its catch to perch, on a- post for lunch. Comling back along the Spit we enjoyed a Kest rel hov- ering above and streaking into the high weeds on a number of occasions for its prey. No success.
