Another pro with an out­

season Sensation in the Ribblesdalc League was the crushing defeat of Earby, the


leaders, by their Yorkshire rivals, Settle. This was Earby’s first defeat of the season but their confidence must have been shaken by the easy manner in which Settle won. Settle struck the first blow at Earby’s morale by winning the toss and


making them bat first. On a slightly moist wicket affected by the sun Ken Foster played havoc, and would have had a “ hat-trick” but for a missed stumping chance.


Fortunately for Earby, their nearest rivals, Ribbles­


dale Wanderers were also beaten in a nail-biting finish at Pleckgate. where Blackburn Northern’s batting rose to the occasion in magnificent fashion after they had been set a big task by the Wanderers.

NEW-STYLE WHALLEY INSPIRE


The new pattern of the Whalley batting was clearly


shown in the team’s home game against Barnoldswick on Sat­


urday, when Geoff Ireland started in characteristic fashion


by hitting out almost from the very first ball and later bats­ men played more sedately to make sure of the village team


obtaining a useful total. Ireland started very well


when he scored 21, his runs including five boundaries. Ire­


land was the first of the Whal­ ley side to be out, when he was caught by Bailey off Barker, with the score at 28.


I f the whalley batsmen can


keep up this exciting style of cricket, the village fans will have little to worry about as far as entertainment is concerned. Though the match* started


seven minutes late,. the bright sunshine and the even brighter cricket soon made amends.


Gordon Topham was the next


Whalley batsman to fall, when he w’as out lbw to Pickup for 12, with the score at 40. One disappointment on Sat­


urday for the Whalley fans, was tile dismissal of the home side’s captain, Gordon Ains­ worth for a duck after he had only received three ’deliveries. Veteran Jim Peters, however,


was in good form and took the Whalley total higher and higher. He was partnered first by Bleazard. who scored one six and three fours in an innings of 22, and later by Eatough, who helped him to take the


score over the century. Peters stayed right until the


end, being last out when Whal­ ley declared at 132—8, having a very valuable 55. Barnoldswick were q u i t e


steady at first until they lost their first wicket at 28. but they lost five batsmen for just more than 30 runs, and by the time they had reached 80, they had eight men hack in the pavilion. The visitors could make no


headway against Whalley’s spin bowlers, and were finally all out


for a meagre 92, a third of the runs having being scored by tbe two opening batsmen, K. Wilson (22). and D. Pilkington (14). For Whalley, Peters and Jim


Wanderers miss their 'stars’


Without .the services of


two of their batting “stars,” Keith Weaver and Johnny Ingham, Ribblesdalc Wan­ derers were beaten at Pleck­ gate by Blackburn Northern in a match that will long be remembered. Although the Wanderers


severely punished the Northern attack," after a poor start and


were able to declare. Northern accepted a run-getting chal­ lenge with an enthusiasm that greatly cheered the few specta­


tors. Here was cricket at its best, ,


cricket as it ought to be played. Perhaps the holiday spirit had something to do with the care­ free attitude of all concerned, but it was certainly good to see the bat hitting the ball hard so that it often sped to the boundary like a bullet from a


erers when Ken Procter was out before he had scored and wick­


ets began to fall quickly. Among the low scorers was


Harry Smithies, who is usually very happy ’ on the firmer pitches. Unfortunately, Smith­ ies was run out before he had got into his stride. A. Holden contributed a very useful 34 however and then Wanderer s “ tail” began to wag with a veng­


eance. W. Workman defied the „ , ,,


attack t° reach 25, but it was afterwards that the Wanderers really became aggressive. Billy Stinger the Wanderers


pro. has not had much oppor­ tunity of showing Ins batting ability so far, but on Saturday he hit the ball hard arid often on both sides of the wicket to


score 51 not out. Tom Wallbank who also


scored a half century, was in excellent form and he and Slinger went for the runs-with a determination and skill which underlined the fact that even with a weakened team the Wanderers have a really strong batting side. It looked odds against North­


ern even having a chance of whining, but cricket is full of surprises and it quickly became


evident that Northern were not going to allow the visitors to


have all their own way. Wilson. Northern’s profes­


sional, batted well, but with dis­ cretion, to give Ills team a fiymg start with a polished 47. B. Pickup scored 41 after Atherton had been clean bowled by Slinger before lie had scored. Slinger tried liis very best to


then take five wickets is no mean achievement and Slinger


Rudd were' were both in great form, taking 4 for 25 and 4 for 29 respectively.

FOOTBALL CLUB PREPARES FOR COMING SEASON


Clitheroe Football Club will start next season’s cam


paign in the First Division of the Lancashire Combination with a home fixture against Burscough on Saturday, August 19, and another home game against Horwich on the follow­


ing Wednesday. Next season, the club will also hmsh with two home


games, against Wigan Rovers and South Liverpool. The draw for the Lanca­


shire Combination Cup has yet to be made, but will most likely be scheduled for the week commencing August 2S.


The first practice match


held recently confirmed the ability of several promising youngsters, of whom the following were added to the club’s playing strength: Winston Schofield (17) a goalkeeper from Accrington; Pete Bolton (22) a half back from Sabden who is a Welsh Amateur trialisl and a former Wolverhampton colt who is now a P.T. instructor at the new Gawthorpe School at Padiham: Chris Johnson (17) an outside right from Blackburn: Robert Peel, of Whalley Road, Clitheroe. an attacking for­ ward who has yet to find his best position; and Wayne Harvie (20) and inside left from Burnley, who, if he produces his best form, is expected to be one o f the outstanding inside forwards in the Combination next


Late collapse ended Clitheroe’s hope of saving a point


Clitheroe are having a lean time this season and


because other lowly-placed teams have picked up precious points recently. Clitheroe are sinking lower and lower down the league table. Handling Clitheroe's bowl­


ing is becoming a heart­ breaking task and on Satur­ day, skipper Malcolm Black­ burn rang the changes against Read without achiev­ ing any marked degree of


success. In recent years Clitheroe and


Read have been fairly keen rivals and there is iust that little bit of extra “bite" in consequence, which adds to the interest. Read like to win at Clitheroe and maJ:o-no secret about it. On Saturday they were all out for four points for a double reason—to avenge


past defeats and improve their own modest position in the


league table. After the morning’s rain


there was some prospect that


the wicket might be lively as the sun broke through the


clouds, but generally speaking the bowlers got little assistance from the pitch.


Clitheroe had visions of


getting rid of Read guickly when they had Wilkinson back in the pavilion before he had scored and Richard Goodway, who has so often been a thorn in Clitheroe’s side, clean bowled by Richardson for


seven. Read’s skipper. Peter Fair­


clough, unperturbed and pre­ pared to take his tunc, took some of the edge off Clitheroe’s attack even though he lost Skinner and Barnes as part­


ners. The changing point in the . . .


game really came when David Seddon, Read’s 22-year-old pro, who has re-siffned for next season, came into partnership with Fairclough. Seddon a talented all-


rounder, did well in the Bolton League as an amateur. So far this season he has not just got going with Read as well as he would have liked but on Satur­ day he came into his own with a vengeance. An aggressive right-handed batsman, he made

THIS WEEK’S BIRTHDAYS mMonday: Success in career


. . scattered tlie surprised spec­


tators. Fairclough's half century was


a very valuable one and al­ though not as entertaining as


Seddon’s innings, it was full of sound cricket. Clitheroe. who were without


the services of Simon West- head. quickly lost the wickets of Lewis, Washbrook and


n i l


Parker. Cole, however, batted with his customary confidence and while he remained at the wicket Clitheroe always seemed likely to keep a point. Within three o f his half century, how ever. Cole was out lbw to Wilkinson and it was signifi­


cant that he had scored all but nine of tbe runs on tlie board. Richard Read hit briskly to score a lively 24 and with Ralph Aspinwall and Malcolm


Blackburn batting steadily Clitheroe seemed practically certain to play out time with­ out any further loss. The return of Seddon to


Read’s attack, however, pro­ duced an amazing transforma­


tion for Read’s professional captured three wickets in four successive deliveries. Thus Clitheroe’s position deterio­ rated from 119 for 6 to 119 for and Read were able to claim the extra five overs in which


they won easily. The match was a personal


triumph for Seddon as he cap­ tured five wickets after scoring a sparkling fifty. His success should do him and the whole team a power of good.

Wallace signs for Darwen


*


AN association which spanned -7 years and involved more than 670 games was broken last week, when lindsay Wallace, Clitheroe's 34-year-old goalkeeper, was signed by Paddy Sowdcn to play lor Darwen, the Lancashire Combination Second Division side. Last season Wallace was particularly happy at


not Clitheroe, especially at the beginning of the season when he was placed on the trans­ fer list after missing the first 13 league and cup games when he was considered


second . choice to Derek Walker. Wallace, who has been one


of Clitheroe’s most popular players of all time, signed for the club in the 1953-54 season. He has been an ever-present


in the team on four occasions, the seasons being 1954-55. 1959- BO. 1961-62. and 1963-64, and in other years he has only missed

career with Stoke City where he went for a trial. From there he went to Accrington for a season, and then to Preston North End “A” team, before signing for Clitheroe. When interviewed for a foot­


ball series in the Advertiser and Times two years ago. Wallace said that he had many mem­ ories about his football career, and that he was proud of the


fact that while playing for Preston North End “A” team, he faced a Manchester United A" team which included such


stars as Dennis Viollet and Jeff Whitefoot.


Another game he remembered


was the Inter-League Cup semi­ final tie at Bangor which Clith-


croe won 2—0. On the other hand he remembered only, too well the time, in his first sea­ son with Clitheroe, when the team was beaten 4—9 at Droyls- den. He described the latter as one of his most embarrassing moments.


Without a doubt Wallace’s


most memorable day of his footballing life was on Satur­ day. September 24, 1965. when Clitheroe faced Choricy at . Shaw Bridge.


the pitch to mark the occasion, he received a standing ovation from the larger-than-usual crowd an d ' received another round of applause at the end of tlie game after he had helped Clitheroe to earn a 0—0 draw against one of the strongest teams in the Combination.


Many people will feel it a


pity that Wallace has not ended his playing career with the town team he has served so well. He has however, chosen to go to Danven so all that re­ mains is to wish him every suc­ cess with his new club.
