King Street, Whalley, who was one of the originators of the scheme. “Every weekend 1 used to see 20—30 young kids trying to get a game of footbal l in the village, but they were cont inual ly being told to move o n ”, said Mr. Wilson, who was elected secretary of the new junior section at a special meet­ ing of interested parties. He added that a tremendous

Hospital open day hits the jackpot


ABOUT 400 people a t ­ tended Clitheroc Hospital's annual open day at the weekend and helped to bring the total money raised to


year-old Whallcy schoolgirl. Anne Day. whose footballing talents were featured in the Advertiser and Times recently. Al though Anne will be able to take par t in friendly games only she will play an active par t in the running of the club. Her duties will include making sure that the ylayers al l know when they are playing, looking after kit, and making sure equipment is available when it is required.


And team secretary is 14-
