Clitheroe Attack Crushes League


Championship Rivals


gEILLIANT bowling by Alan Entwistle and Maurice Pike, who at one stage had jointly


i ■ ;


captured nine wickets for only 13 runs, gave Clitheroe a spec­ tacular win against champion­ ship rivals at Settle on Saturday. Backed up by championship-class fielding—six catches were taken —they skittled Settle for ,48 In reply to a Cliiheroe 'total of 102, the last six wickets falling for eight runs.


I


Settle Jasted exactly eighteen and a half overs jagainst the


Clitheroe attack’s deadliest spell of the season, {Enttetle taking five for 22, and Pike, live for 25. Almost all !the runs' came early in the innings, when double- figure contributions by B. Horn (12), R. P. Robinson (10)’and J . Greenwood (10) took the score to 40 for four. Subsequent resistance, however, was practic­ ally, non-existent, five of the last sb{ batsmen failing to score) a run between them.


;


! MODERATE SCORE "What had seemed only a


moderate Clitheroe score took on a) more flattering aspect in the light of this wholesale Settle collapse, but the major credit for - a) notable success undoubtedly rested with .the bowlers and’.the- elertness of their fieldsmen.


I . ■ ■Keystone of Clitheroe’s batting


was an attractive partnership between M, Blackburn and J . A. Crabtree, who put on 23 for the' sixth -wicket after' five wickets had fallen for 47. Blackburn, home! from university, had two boun-daries in a stylish 21, while Crabtiree’s 20 was the result of some I well-judged strokes.


j ' USEFUL‘ WAG’


• ;A bright knock Of 13 by Wilf Davies "was another feature, while J. Marsh (10) , and P. Wilkinson (11) gaVe the tail a useful -wag in a 1 ninth-wicket stand .tvhieih took''the total to the century mark. , ]

J ’ERHAPS the biggest surprise qf an eminently satisfactory


d£y for the local clubs on Satur­ day ;was the comparative ease with ■which Clitheroe defeated Settle, 'Who have lately been making a challenging hid for title honours.


', bnce again, Clltheroe’s' display


hi) the field proved -the match­ winning factor, notably the bowl­ ing .o f Alan Entwistle and Maurice Pike and I'the alertness of) fieldsmen .who accepted six catches.


, ■ With Holt, their 'prcfesslonal, : Greenwood c Crabtree b


maintaining s q c h . impressive fdnn, Whalley’s win at Read was pdrhaps less suirrislng. It ■was


in this game that Holt took his slctleth wicket for the season, w:aich Is more than: any ether bowler in the league,


But Whailey's best bowling


analysis on Saturday [was that of R. ;Bowman,' who) got well dfeeirved , rev/ard for a really accurate arid well-sustained spell. Whalley, ■ toe, .benefited again frprii the batting of G. Topham, whose, 26 iwas another useful


contribution to a: rapidly growing list.. . J


OPENING S'TAND


- Still: on' the fringe of the championship ’ tussle thanks to their { win - against Padiham,' Ribblesdale Wanderers '<got back to ! winning form thanks chiefly to the'-confident i.opOnlng starid, of 68 between fC, 'Weaver and B. Scott'|and ' the bowling of K. Standring:land H. Smithies, the; latter -taking full ifevenge for-h!s{ failure’ with bat "by taking four wickets with an impressive dis- ,play of slow left-arm spinners.


The majority of batsmen were,


also kept fairly quiet In the Rlbble! "Valley League, notably In the match between Hurst Green and Church Bank MIU, In which Hurst Green’s R. Severs had the most spectacular analysis of ithe, day when he took six wickets for’ two runs.


' I ' • ■ ■ Sporting Spotlight


[I^ARROVV retained second place in the Ribblc Valley Amatenr


League on Saturday with a big victory oVer local rivals in )a “ derby” game at Wiswell; on Saturday.


! Wi swe l l batting fortunes


slumped badly against the bowl­ ing of Baker (five for 25) and J . Poster (four for 12) and'only E, Ashcroft (17) and T. Mqriey (10) were able to reach double figures. At )one stage Wiswell had lost seven wickets ^ for . 15 runs, but an eighth-wlcket’stand lifted the total to 30, and, the side eventually reached, 39- Barrow lost an early wicket, but a match-'winning partnership of 42 between E .Heyworth ,(19 not out) and 0. Forrest (22 not out) took them to ■victory without further loss. ! .


L e a g u e leaders, Chatbum, narrowly ' retained their un-


'deleated record'- at Ribchester, •where thq home side ran them close in. a; lively finish. Thanks to some excellent bowling by E. Tomlinson), who took six for 18, and W. Tomlinson (three for 17), Ribchested were dismissed for 53.


In repljf, .Chatbum lost thOir


opening pair!without scoring'a run, and despite E. Tomlinson’s useful innings’ of 19, 'they ;wefe still four runs',behind when the ninth wicket fell. A last-wicket stand between, F. Butcher (11 not out) and R. Davies (5- not out) finally ensured them the points, the -final score being 55 for nine.


' As a result, ■ Chatbum now


head the league) with 26 points, a lead of three oy&’ their nearest rivals, Barrow, on whom they have a match in hand;


In third place are Hurst Green,


who collected full points with' a very , c o n v i n c i n g win over;


Bank Mill. R. Severs, who took six wickets for . two runs—the


best of the season—and R. Jem- son (four for 14) skittled Church Bank Mill for 19. Severs had 14 not out in Hurst Green’s winnings reply of 21 for one.
