r e f u s e d Approval for a club house
for Pendle Ski Club, at the Wellsprings Hotel, Nick Pendle, has been refused by
Clitheroe R u ra l Council. The proposal was not in
accordance with the county development plain, under which the land is within an area which is expected to remain in its existing use.
It is also within an area of
great landscape value, and is part of the Forest of Bowland area of outstanding natural beauty.
Planning permission for the
artificial ski slope was granted last year until 1970, and the council feels it inappropriate to grant permission for a perma nent building.
The council also feels that
the proposed club house would be intrusive, and not part of the present hotel building group.
S e e k i n g s u c c e s s
T h e Cavedwellers, the
well-known Clitheroe beat | group, took another step to wards its ultimate ambition I recently when they recorded a ‘demo’ disc at Deroy|
Studios, Carnforth. The three members of the |
group, Alan Bamowski. Mat thew Howarth and Andrew Parkinson, who are all 16. have wanted to turn full-time pro fessionals ever since they formed the group three years ago when they were all pupils at St. Augustine’s School, Bil-
lington, The ‘demo’ disc, which was
S T O C K C L E A R A N C E
penned by the boys themselves, is called “Better than he can" and runs for about two-and-a-
half minutes. Philip Howarth, Matthew’s
elder brother, who is the boys’ manager, said “We are trying
to get one of the major record companies interested in the disc, and eventually be offered a contract.
He added “We are hoping to
arrange a tour of Sweden and Switzerland. early next year and then return to England and turn full-time profes
sionals.” . The group received a sopy of
the record on Tuesday, but they did a ‘live’ performance Of the song to members of the Cath olic Youth Club, Lowergate, cm Sunday, and' it appeared to go down very well

and I now feel dowdy and old fashioned. No wonder Northern women
are orltiolsed for their drab ness. We just don’t get the same facilities as those luoky dollies at the end of the M1. The olothes in our shops
can’t tie designed by the same people, or is it that we don’t use the same initiative and fail to adapt them or clutter them up with the wrong accessories!
There were Indian squaw
fringed skirts, Vanessa Red grave bandeaus and very smart trousers, out continen tal style with straight, ciga
rette legs. Blaok seems to be a
favourite colour for stockings but north of Manchester, black nylon tights are im-

possible to get. Knee length socks are also popular worn with short-short boys shorts and super clumby Frenoh- looking shoes. Skirts on the whole average about 12 inches long, though they look no more than six.
There again we miss out.
Praotically every single girl in sight had legs about four feet long.
Chio little twin sets worn
with three or four fine gold chains, marvellous Garbo trench coats with deep brimmed floppy hats, sporty looking ponohos in bright colours, sights never seen in
Castle Street. Favourite accessories are
definitely Yorkshire terriers carried nonchalantly in one hand, or an Afghan hound slinking along beside you. Sometimes impractical I’m sure, but a definite asset. It
also helps if you have flaw less features, perfeot carriage and shiny flowing hair. Not all London women were
born that way, it’s just a case of working on what you have and making it better. We may not be able to get
the clothes they do but we can certainly get the same cosmetics. We even walk with the help of two legs like they do; all that has to be done is to move them In that slow steady way, with the stomaoh in, shoulders back and hips
out. One thing we have that
those southern belles don’t have is good-looking men.
What an effeminate looking thing the London male is. compared with our rugged, masculine examples. If only our men could dross
like London men they would be the envy of every other man in the country.
As it is, men In the south
get wind of the current trends from the Continent, and somehow the wind dies out before it reaches us. Perhaps if every woman
could surreptitiously burn all the sports j a c k e t s and grey trousers they came across and offered the price of a rail ticket to London, then our men might be per suaded to buy a whole new wardrobe. Things tike bottle green
trousers cut high on the waist with cigarette legs, small Shetland sweaters, fitted shirts and waisted jackets. But even if our handsome
men did dress with a touch of flair and remained un affected, women would no doubt still be finding fault. “The grass is greener . . . ” as they say, and it will always be greener than green south of Birmingham.

THE BOBBIN One woman who has
been involved with the W.I. for many years is Mrs. Annie Slater, of Chatburn Road,. Clitheroe. She has been secretary fo r the Grindleton W.l. for
k e e p i n g t h e w h e e l s TURNING
by F io n a B row n
more than 20 years and a member there for about 34
years. She came from Blackburn
to Clitheroe 36 years ago after her marriage and joined the Grindleton Institute be cause she had friends who were already members and it was one of the nearest insti tutes. She has been a widow for 8 years. As secretary she takes a hand in the general running
of the institute and deals with the correspondence. The arranging of the
speakers for the meetings and tlieir accommodation If needed, is also her job. Thea main objective of the
Federation of Women’s Insti- stitutes hasn’t changed over the years of course, but Mrs. Slater finds they have broad-
ened and more sidelines are being introduced.
She also has many other in
terests which include pottery painting, which she does at evening classes, photography knitting, crochet work and gardening.
At one time she was sec
retary for about 13 years of the W.I. section at the annual Clitheroe Agricultural Show. She is also treasurer of the
Mayoress’s Ladies Committee, a member of the Old People’s Welfare Committee and Club Sub-committee, a Friend of Clitheroe Hospital.
choir at Trinity Church, Clitheroe, treasurer of the Women’s Fellowship there, and one of the Church Trus
tees. S p e a k e r Now and again she is able
to take a break from all these activities and go to Warwick shire to stay with her mar ried daughter, Joan, who has three children.
She enjoys being secretary
for Grindleton and is obvious ly successful, having been re elected for the job so many times.
The speaker at the monthly
meeting of the Chipping Women’s Institute was Dr. Thomas, who attends the vil lage clinic.
She gave an interesting
talk on the stages in a woman’s life. The meeting was presided
over by Mrs. D. Chadwick and the provisions stall manned by Mrs. M. Cole and Mrs. Hoyle raised £7 for Shelter, a society that helps homeless people. It was decided to hold the
Institute’s birthday party dinner in November at the Talbot Hotel, Chipping and to date about 57 people have put their names on the list. The competition for a small
Iced cake was won by Mrs. Chadwick who also came second, and third was Mrs.
K. C. Hope. Witchcraft is the title of
the talk to be given to the Broughton W I at their next meeting and it’s being given by Dr. Reginald Webster, the former Brain of Britain,

of the Broughton W I were the guests at the W I meeting at Edgworth and a quiz was held during the evening. Taking part in the North
Western Regional Music Fes tival “The Brilliant and the Dark,” will be 20 members from Broughton. They will be part of a choir of 28 and the festival is being
held at the Ashton Hall in Lancaster on October 29. A week last Wednesday,
about 36 Broughton members tried wine tasting which a Blackburn brewery held In the Institute’s own club room. The competition at the
Grimsargh W I meeting on Wednesday was for a harvest basket. This competition is held every year in October and the baskets are distribu ted to the elderly and sick people of the village.
W E A T H E R - B E A T E R One of the most annoying things that can befall a
woman is leaving the hairdressers splendidly coiffed to find the English climate is being true to form by raining
hard. One Clitheroe hairdresser, Jean Parker, has taken pity cat
her clients caught in such circumstances, and provides a car from Tuesday to Thursday, to take them safely home with
hairdos still intact. This service applies to town clients only, for there Is a
schedule to keep and it would be impossible to drive someone home to one of the outlying villages.
Customers are driven by the hairdressers at the salon. They can also arrange for the car to collect them.
She is a member of the This month’s meeting was
of special interest to the Grimsargh members because the speaker was Mr. C. Beck, one of the architects engaged on the Preston New Town project which greatly con cerns the village and Its in habitants.
Also at the meeting to dis

Mitton W I held their
monthly meeting on Wednes day week with a demonstra tion given by two Clitheroe butchers on the different cuts of meat, which was very help ful for housewives. They were thanked by Mrs. A. Hindle. Two letters were read from
the Solomon Isles, thanking the Institute for gifts of material. The h o l id a y
souvenir competition was won by Mns. A Laycock and both Miss M. Hudson and Mrs. Hewitt were second. Mrs. Kay and Mrs. Watson
served the refreshments and bulbs ordered through the W I were distributed. The needlework classes for
Mitton W I started last night the millinery classes at Grin dleton started last Friday and the dressmaking ones started on Monday.
