...first team lined up as usual except for Crosby's absence from the defence, Gratwick taking his place.

The coloring and rhythms, however, are marvelous, and we are constantly hearing novel and piquant effects as in the trilling and warbling of the wind instrucments in the Cleopatra episode. It is interesting to note that the Rondo...
