Bulls don’t deter ramblers


DUE TO HOLIDAYS, plus the prospect o£ adverse w e a t h e r conditions, the Clitheroe Ramblers had only eight members for their ramble in the Balderstone area on Saturday. We took the X27 bus to our starting point at the Bay Horse Hotel on the Longsight road


to Preston. The ramble immediately


began on fieldpaths crossing two meadows, rich in lash- grass, we saw wood sage and bindweed in convalvulus in the hedgeside, the latter twin­ ing itself around hawthorn twigs its white trumpet-like flowers prominent against the


dark greens. The second field was fenced


off with wire charged with electricity used for sectional grazing purposes. The only animals in the field were two


bulls. Many' county councils, have


made by-laws under a local government act of 1933 which prohibits turning out at large


bulls over twelve months old in any field or enclosure through which there is a pub­ lic right of way. We could not ask the bulls


and we passed through two stiles, both of ancient vintage, and on to the road where we turned left,. passing Holmes farm and on to Mamman

COUNCILLOR URGES: ‘GIVE PARENTS A SAY’


PARENTS should have a voice in any decision about school holidays dales, County Conn. T. H. Asnin told Bowland education sub-committee on Monday. The committee were discussing school holidays for


1971 and, eventually, dates more or less similar to those for Settle High and Grammar Schools were agreed upon. Mr Peter Riley, assistant divisional education officer,


had said that all the teachers in Bowland schools had been asked for their views about an acceptable programme.


The majority view was


Coun. Aspin asked why tea­ chers oniv should have a say —what about parents? Mr. Riley replied: There is
