MASSIVE ANTENNA DANGLES FROM TOP OF DUNSTER TOWER

Dunster House inhabitants were started out of their traditional Anglophile calm yesterday by the appearance of a massive radio aerial stretching form the clock tower off somewhere in the general direction of Eliot House.

No ordinary antenna, this one has a diameter of a good sexed ship's cable, and wireless experts gave it as their opinion that the fortunate radio to which it is attached could broadcast election returns to China, provided anyone cares in Cathay.

Just how long the authorities of the House will allow this rope to decorate the cherished tower is doubtful. For what the aerial lacks in beauty, is compensated for by the stark realism with which it strikes out against the horizon.
