“Own goal” gives visitors victory CLITHEROE 0; BURSCOUGH 1

Championship of Div. ‘A’ still undecided


TT is now certain that both A Barrow and Moor Lane Greens will be relegated to Division B of the Ribblesuale Tabic Tennis League. I t is a point of interest to note that both these teams were promoted from Division B at Christmas, after


being relegated in 1959-60. The championship of Division


A is still undecided with only one


match to play. If Ribble Cement beat Chaigley Transport this week they will be champions, but if they draw it will mean a play­ off between Cement and cutn- eroe C.C. If Ribble Cement lose to Chaigley. then Clitheroe C.C. will be champions. This is assuming Clitheroe beat Moor Lane Greens, which they almost


certainly will. Ribble Cement also play


Chaigley Transport m the final of the team knock-out compete tion, so it seems Chaigley could very well stop Ribble Cement from winning the league and


cup “ double.” In Division B both I.C.I. and


champions.

The visitors equalised when RUDGYARD scored from a free-


kick, while the home defence stood appealing for off-side. The works side put on heavy


pressure and missed several good chances before taking the lead once more. BITHELL beat two men and found the net with a


low shot. Soon after the interval, Wad­

as each side tried to notch the winning goal.
