competition ever promoted by j tt|e Rlbbles- dale Association, Clltheixte Methodists have only this winter resumed toert connection with the league, and curiously [enough In toeir ranks they have Harold Fpulds, who in 1932 was renowned as the leading player in CUtheroe. No' other member of their cham­ pionship side remains on the active list, but Billy Anderton continued his career with CUtoeroe Conservatives before he retired about two winters back, being toetiregarded rts a veteran. . . '


NO. j 2--CLITHERPE METkODISTS Although they won the first table tepnls


- Harold Foulds still ranks as ja stylisi he Is not very successful In league fixtures, because the standard of play Is-so much higher nowadays. In his stead as top man reigns Ronald E. Cams, another cricketer and all Iround spprtsmail, who wop his spurs in ■ inter-league matches , for; Rlbblesdale within - a month of playing hlB first -league match. That he has not retained his place in toe representative side'Is no reflection on his play, but because the selectors hqve pre­ ferred a little more experience in those In­ vited to take part In recent North East Lan­ cashire league matches.

; Several promising youngsters have appeared in CUtoeroe Methodists team this winter; amongst them being! E. Wilkinson, who ought to become an, inter-league star

in twd years, H.

Cams, a steady! player, John Dugdale, obviously trying to play lawn tennis strokes from, long range but unable to cope with short drop shots, and others'not quite so iexpeilenced. iThen there is L.

most opponents.
