Vogl is very resistant to the radio orchestra and will not allow him to conduct; there are a few young people who are sympathetic, but not yet consistent; he announces the preliminary programme of the Prague Spring; can they look forward to a visit to BM?; he asks if they agree to publish a small biography of Šafránek as part of the Orbis series; O.
