CLITHEROE SCORE A POINT OVER WHALLEY.


A DICVWN GALME BMUtOW.


EXCITING FINISH I'O A IMEAIORABLE CONTEST.


Assuming that Clitheroe and Whalley wm


their remaining matches, they will fini^ on level terms, and a play-off will be necessary in order to settle the champion-


slrip. Up to Saturday, Clitheroe were a point


behind tlie leaders, with a match in h ^ d , and with throe matches to play against Whalley's nvo. Clitheroe’s chances of taking the maximum points was conndered to be reasonably safe, though they will doubtless have a tough encounter at Read. On the other hand, Wlialley had to meet Barrow, last Saturday, and as meetings with the latter are usually very speculative propositions, it was generally anticipated that Whallev would have their work cut out to wi . That tliey were determined to give nothing away,—and naturally so E Green and Or. Postlelhwaite, who are at Ganstang with the Territorials, came over specially for the match by motor, so that, with the exception of Boddy, Whalley had their full te;un up. T.iylor was missing fmm the Barrow side. <itherwise the home team were at full .strength. Fraught with importance as the match


i \y i m f flilS'i i ■ ~ h \


was, it must have been a source of gratific­ ation to the Barrovians to see the largest “gate" of the ..season, m.aiiy spectators com­ ing from W'hallcv, but ‘the majority of them from Clitheroe. •\s the matcli resulted, rain was a factor


in saving the .situation for the home team, another faaor l>eing the decision to pro­ long the VtTiallcy innings inste,ad of declar­ ing at 153 for five wickets when a heavy shower finst drove the players to the pa'dl- ion about -1-20 p.m. In this, it was evident the Whalley captain was tletermined ’o make the position of hU side secure, and as the wicket was very hard, and the Barrow team inc'udes .several batsmen of ability, no risk of iiossililc defeat was to be run. Of course, it is all very well to say what tire captain should have done in the light of after-events, but no one, a.ml probably the Wlialley team least of all. was prepared for the rot which set in immediately Barrow began their response. It was an exciting finish and one which will long be remem­ bered by those who .saw the match. But Barrow suffered in another way which


k i! .m. ir I I f i . V


was not calculated to help their display, and that w.as in bad decisions. Peters was .stumped before he reached 20. Standen was given out caught (the ball going off his arm) and Crabtree was given out as bowled. These are three instances, but the last was, perhaps, the worst of all, as the ball re­ bounded from the wicket-keeper’s pads, and both ball and bails went towards the batsman. If lie had been given out us stumped, one would not have thought « much about it, but the decision—-well, it was too ridiculous. This, of course, had nothing to do with


the Whalley team who fought hard for vic­ tory, and, under the c'rcumstances, they were unfortunate not to get both points, which would probably have settled their claim to retain the cup. M it is, the championship is an open question. ■Whalley had choice of innings, and


began iialting with Peters and J. Green, Hollinrake and' Walmsley bowling. Runs came freely, but at 15 Peters was appar- enriv run out as the result of a smart return on tile part of Palefield. The umpire, how­ ever, ruled against the appeal, much to the (iksatisfacrion of the home team. It was Peters who w;is responsible for the majority of the runs, and the score advanced to 25 when Green, who had twice survived ap­ peals for Ibw was given out to Hollinrake. .S.amp.son followed in and ably assisted Pete.s, who gave an admirable display, .scoring at a quick pace all round the wicket and repcated'y finding the boundary. The h.alf-c.entury had been signalled when Crab­ tree displaced Walmsley and Goodman took a turn vice Hollinr.ake. The change had


............... 20 . . 9 ... 3 .. . 8 .. 26 .. 24


the desired effect, Sampson being dis­ missed at 68 as the re-ult of a particularly smart catch by Hollinrake who took the ball with one hand at the third attempt. The wicket- had put on -Id runs, but the ensuing partnership with L. Green was even more prolific. Peters was roundly ap­ plauded on completing his 50 when the sc-ore stood at 87 after 55 minutes pHy- Walmsley resumed at that stage. Peters


continued to hit vigorously and had reached 67 when he gave a catch to PatefieW at short leg, w'-'ch was ao epted. With the addition of 10 runs, Almond was caught behind the wicket, and 110 had only just been hoisted when L. Green retired, a merry innings, out to a catch by H.


Goodman. Postlethwaite and Harrison came together


.oikI the latter was missed in the slips almost immediately. They raised the score to 150 when rain compelled a ces.satibn of hostilities about -l-ffO. .\fter half-an-hour’s interval, the imiiugs


w.TS resumed, and nine runs had been add­ ed w'hen Harrison, who played' a forcing game, was bowled by Hollinrake. Hhidle s sticks were shattered by Walmsley before he had scored. Postlethwaite infused more life into his play, and, well .seco-idcd by Lakeland, the score again progressed rap- idlv to 183, when the closure w'as applied, B.orrow being left with short of an hour and three quarters in which to attempt the


runs. Rain again threatened and the light was


none too good, .so that it seemed probable


that the game might not be played to rmi>h. But the alarming r.ate at wirch the home wickets fell gave rise to gloomy fore­ bodings. Two very faulty decisions by the umpires were strongly resented, and the spectators manifested z good deal of antag­ onism. After Patefield had been dismissed with only a .solitary run Ixwked, as the re- -sult of a brilliant overhead catch by Dr. Postlethwaite at mid-on, Standen had got Hind'le twice round to the leg Ixiundary when he was given out caught by the pro. It was in vain that he protested that the ball hit him on the ann, and pointed to a mark in evidence of his contention j he had to go. y. Goodman was clean bowled by Hindle at 18, and 20 had only just appear­ ed when H. Goodman was well caught by Lakeland. Crabtree and Walmsley were together when the ne.vt incident occurred —a glaring error of judgment on the part of the umpire. The pair w-ere playing careful inriings, and Crabtree had scored two singles when the ball relxiimded from the wicket-keeper’s pads. Up went the umpire’s hand, and one naturally concluded that Crabtree had been I'ery luckily stumped. But such was not the decision. He was given out bowled! This led' further barracking on the part of the spec­ tators, and when rain began to fall, the batsmen were urged to “come off.” But it wa:s not until seven wickets were down for 32 that they again retired to the_ pavil­ ion, and for a time seemed as if that iTOuld be the finish of the game. But no. At twenty ininutes to .seven, the


jilayers again took the field, Walmsley and Washbrook being the batsmen. The form­ er’s sticks were disturbed by Hindle in the first over, and he gave place to Dawson. The latter had made nine, and there was close on ten minutes to go when he had the misfortune to play on, and Everton joined Washbrook. The pair made an excellent fight of .-t, though the closing scenes were productive of intense excite­ ment. No one followed the last two overs with greater interest than did the mem­ bers of the Clitheroe team who, on their way home from Sabden, drew up in a wag­ gonette and lustily cheered the Barrow batsmen who had averted defeat. Appended are the scores:

CLITHEROE WIN AT SABDEN. Hope runs high among the Clitlieroe


team that tliey may be able to take a hand in deciding the championship of the Rib- blesdale League, and if they manage to overcome Read, to-morrow, it seems a foregone conclusion that they will have to play off with AVhalley. Anythmg may hap­ pen yet to upset calculatbns, not the least important factor being the weather, and whereas Whalley wind up their fixtures against Burnley St. Andrew’s to-morrow, Clitheroe, in addition to Read, have to play the rclurn match with Sabden. 'Pbe game against the villagers last Sat­ urday yicldetl the full points to Cli't'heroe,


who were not :i little surprised when, on w.imiiiig ihe toss, Sabden sent them in to bat. The batter have strengthened their team somewhat dur'uig the last few weeks, so that the fixture was not regarded as lightly as it would have been during the etirlicr iiart of the .season. .'Vlder.sley and Downhain made a gpod


first wicket .stand, '.he score being within one of 40 when the latter was caught by F. Dugdale. Aldersley, with 26, made the highest individual score, (Jddie coming next with 20, wliile Brierley, SReldon Ramsbottom and Dixon also got into the second decade, the innings yielding I f l runs. The combined attack of Nutter and Downham proved Ixx) much for Sabden who could only muster 67, towards which the chief contributors were Dyson, who played a good mnings for 17, and “Mr.” Extras, xvho was credited with the same number- between them one half the score. Down ham, though inclined to be a bit erratic at times, trundled with marked effect, his five for 18 being the best effort of the day,

TIME SAVES READ AT CHUROH MEADOW.


WANDERERS DO WELL. The attendance at Church Meadow, on


Saturday last was very meagre, owing to the more attractive match at Barrow. Read were the visitors and were fortun­


ate in sharing the points, as the Wanderers, with only one wicket down, were within 18 of their total when time wiis called. ■ With Haworth oiit of the home side, a


trial was given to A'. J. Lynes, a South of England professional. He created a fav­ ourable impression, especially in batting.

Read, batting first, opened with Mey ana Fielding to the bowling of Lynes and Brooks. Runs came at a good pace, but at 16, a good' catch by Dawson at square leg, dismissed Fielding. The score had advanc­ ed to 45, when a series of disasters overtwiv the visitors, and half the side were out tor 47. Consistent play by the later batsmen cons’derably improved matters, howex-er. Richardson played a veiy steady mnings for 36, and was top scorer. He -rreat help from Rutter, who scored 30, chieflv bv means of boundary strokes, arid with 'Mo'ss and Mayor both getting into double figures, the total had reached the ■espectable sum of 155 before the last wicket fell. No fewer than seven batsmen rc.achcd double figures. Brooks was the most saiccessfuV bowler, his five wickets


costing 54 runs. The Wanderers commenced their tasK , • • f i-


with Dawson and .Mitchell, 'Moss and Wade sharing the bowling. Both batsmen w_ere good form, and on one occasion the ba.


was hit for five (all run). Despite numer- ■ous changes in the attack, the opening pair were not separated until 70 runs were registered, iMitchcll departing with 25 his credit. About this lime, rain came on and several adjournments had to be made Hudson, who had succeeded .Mitchell re­ tired in ordbr to give Lynes a chance to displav his batting aibilities. He and Daw­ son made such good use of the short time remaining for play, that had there been another few minutes the match would have been won. Dawson g.nve one of his best dis plays, and this is the second time this year that he has passed the 50 mark against Read. Scores;

SETTLEMENT OF 1..-ABOUR DISPUTES.


To the Editor of the Clitheroe Advertiser. Sir,—^At a lime when we are merging


from a gigantic industrial upheaval, which has involved the nation in enormous finan­ cial loss, it is a groat satisfaction to record that the sclieme which 1 ventured to pound for the settlement of labour disputes, and to which so much attention has been directed during the past few weeks, has received extensive and most influential sup- jxirt from the representativea of commerce and industry in all parts of the country, as well as from many of the well-known lead ers of lalxiur. W’ith the co-operation of many of the heads of municipalities, who have kindly assisted in obtainmg the sup­ port of prominent representatives of capital and labour in their respective localities, more than twelve hundred signatures to the memorial have been obtained, and many letters have been sent me stating that, on the return to business after the holidays, of principals of firms, full conrideration will be given to the subject. The splendid re­


sponse which has already been made enabled me to hand to the Prime Minister, at the Cbnferences wlrich took place at Downing- street, on the 15th inst., a list of influential representatives of commerce and finance', and of all the chief industries in the United Kingdom. I must confess to feeling some­ what disappointed that no announcement, even of a tentative character, has been made as to the result of these conferences. I may be allowed to remind you that the


-proposed Industrial Court would deal with deadlocks only in labour disputes, and would come into operation before either sitrike or lockout was begun. The work of existing employers’ and workmen’s organ­ isations and of Conciliation Boards would not be interfered with in the least. The (presentation of matters in dispute to this Industrial Court, whose constitution would amply demonstrate rts impartialdty, would be of an entirely voluntary chararter, and the decision of the Court would not prevent the w-o'rkmen from exercising their right to s(trike or employers to lock out. The Court would roly for the acceptation of its de-


arm bowler, and Kis three wickets for oJ 1

ANOTHER GR.AND ZAM-llUR CURT,. After Ills holidays, little Wilfred Wright


arrived home with his feel very sore. " 1 hey were in a shocking state, said his mother, Mrs. E. Wright, of 14, Crab Lane, Armley, Leeds, to a reporter, "and if it hadn’t been for Zain-Buk 1 really don’t know


what we should have done. “Wilfred’s feet we^c all inflamed and


swollen, and blasters formed between all the toes. These blis-ters burst into sores, which discharged thick matter. The poor child was so tonnented with the itching and paui that he couldn’t wear his boots. 1 had to dress Wilfred's feet when he was aslt-ep, for he couldn’t bear them touching when awake and often it took me two hours at a time to dress and bandage them up. "You can imagine my disappointment,

Xumijcta 2, 3, 4, and 5 deserve special mention for cleanliness; they were entirely free from weeds. 1 certainly -hink the prizes offered have a very stimulating effect up-jii the owners of the gardens. 1 consider that number two garden would be a credit to any village or town m the country, or to any County Council as a model cottage gar­ den.
