Flush with confidence— team bungle through


Clitheroe continued their


recent climb up the Lanca­ shire Combination league table with a 3—2 home win over former league- leaders, . R o s s e n d a l e United, but they made very heavy weather of what should have been an easy victory. Clitheroe were flush with


confidence following their wonderful 5— 0 defeat of Lancaster City in mid-week, but more bungling in their defence gave them several tcares in Satuday’s game.

bowler, had figures of 0— 25 at one lime, but three wickets in his final over brought him up to 5— 41. The Bamoldswick batting


was unbelievably slow, and they only managed to score 18 runs off Whalley’s first 15 overs. Geoff Ireland got Whalley


off to a good start by scoring 26 in 20 minutes before he was bowled by Clayton with the score at 33. The second wicket fell


fairly cheaply as Neil Duck­ worth was dismissed after only nine runs had been added. Jim Peters, who had


replaced Ireland, was then joined by David Bleazard, and the pair reached 93


before Bleazard, who had lilt five four’s and one six in his 33, was bawled by Tillotson. The remaining Whalley


batsmen did not offer much resistance to the Bamolds­ wick bowling, and with the scare at 111, Alec Anderson was caught by Wilson off Pickup for seven.


Mick Gorton, who is


usually a high-scorer, was out before he had added to the total, and then Jim Peters fell nine runs later with the score at 129. Jim Rudd and Gordon


Ainsworth managed to push the score up to 144, but then four wickes fell for only two runs and Whalley were


eventually all out for 146. Bamoldswick started very


slowly indeed and they were soon in trouble when they lost K. Wilson at two, and B. Pilkington at 12, both being victims of Jim Peters. The score rose gradually


but they lost another wicket at 43 when G. Whipp was caught by Shuttleworth off

Twelfth draw of season Ribbiesdale Wanderers,


who have only won four games this season in the Ribblesdale League, were held to another draw the 12th of the season, at home to Settle on Satur­


day.A tail-end collapse, when three wickets fell for only three runs, prevented the Wanderers from increasing their score, but in the end it made no difference as the Yorkshire side was still 32 runs behind when time ran


out. It was unfortunate that


Billy Sldnger was run out after making 26, for he was beginning to show signs of real resistance to the Settle


bowlers. When the Yorkshire side


was put into bat, only Eric Mitchell and S. Andrews had any answer to Slinger's and Metcalfe’s bowling, and they scored 48 not out and 36 respectively: The Wanderers batted first


and everything seemed to be going well until K e i t h Weaver was caught by Cook off Faster for 17 with the score at 20. Ken Procter and Alan


Musgrove managed to double the score before the farmer was also caught out, this time by Agar off Davidson for eight. Bill Colley, who is usually one of the Wanderers’ big


hitters, joined Musgrove at fifth wicket fell only one run the crease, but he made later and the game ended little impact on the game, with the score at 111—5.

Stereophonic Record Player The most deceptive piece of stereo equipment ever made; in spite of its small size (just 36" wide) and low price, its performance is equal to that of large and costly stereo equipment. The ‘Stereomaster’ is just one. compact, self- contained unit—yet it will fill a room with glorious, life­ like stereo sound. The well-proportioned cabinet is finished in Teak or Walnut veneers. Come and see both and get the details of our easy terms.________________________
