Call for talks on plans to change hotel
DISCUSSIONS between a Hurst Green hotelier and the local residents and parish council are to be sought by the Ribble Valley Council before alterations are allowed to the premises. Mr Tony Perry, of the
Bayley Arms, has asked the Council for permission to carry out alterations including a new large lounge in a former barn, and new fire safety measures which would allow the use of first floor bedrooms for tourists. But Hurst Green councillor
Mrs Mary Brown told the Development Sub-Committee: “ If we allowed these exten sions Mr, Perry would have more coaches coming to the inn. "B u t we already have

NATIVITY PLAY
C H IL D R E N w h o a r e members of the Salvation Army in Clitheroe delighted a large gathering with their performance o f a Nativity play entitled "The Christmas story,” on Sunday afternoon. The band played two pieces
of seasonal music. Principal roles in the play were taken b y Sh aron Sieczkowski (Mary), R ob e rt Mitchell (Joseph) and Christopher Mitchell (Inn-keeper). Tracy Robinson and Marion Khon were the angels. Worship was led by Brigadier and Mrs C. Lodge, of Preston. They also led a large gathering at the evening carol service.
SHOWROOM
THE former Ace of Spades Club in Whalley may be turned into a furniture show room. The Ribble Valley Council’s Development Sub c om m i t te e has granted permission for Hadleigh Fine Furnishings to use for retail p u r p o s e s the old c lu b premises on the first floor of a George Street building.
to whether the Council has a moral commitment to spend £10,500 on the scheme as was originally thought. The Recreation Committee
agreed in November to spend the money after hearing that the old Clitheroe Borough C ou n c i l had earmarked £10,500 fo r the Roefield project, before handing over power to the Ribble Valley in 1974. But Coun. Bill Fleming,
Langho, told Policy Commit tee members that he knew of no minute which committed the Ribble Valley to spending the money on Roefield. Cou n. Tom Robinson,
Clitheroe, who is chairman of the Finance Committee, added that he was not sure the money was really there in the Ribble Valley accounts, anyway. Coun. Fleming agreed that
commitments should be upheld, but only where they could be proved, and the capi tal to carry them out was really available. Chief Architect and Plan
ning O f f ice r Mr Charles Wilson said the Ribble Valley Sports Council had raised about £1,500 to put into a plan to turn the bam into a sport and leisure centre.

THIRTY-ONE old folk from Castleford listened to carols played by a Ribblesdale School band as they enjoyed the annual Christmas party laid on for them in the school. Tea was provided by fifth
year girls from the CSE domestic science group, under teacher Mrs Christine Snape. Each Girl also made a decora tion. The music was organised by
teachers Mrs Audrey Barrett and Mr Jack Waterhouse, and deputy heads Miss Joan F a r le y and Mr Michael Watkins enjoyed tea with the old folk. Later a group of fifth year
pupils helped the old people home while the others cleared away after the party.
THESE smiling young people are members of St James’s Brownie pack who entertained a large audience in the school on Monday evening. Under the leadership of
Mrs M. Simpson, Brown Owl, and Mrs S. Workman, Tawny Owl, the pack performed a play entitled “ The selfish giant” and followed this with musical items and poetry readings. There was also a bring and buy stall and a cake stall. Proceeds totalling £30 are being shared equally by the Save the Children Fund and the Brownies’ own fund.
Bonus money stolen
CHRISTMAS bonus money that Newton ice-cream trader Mr Henry Hodgson had put aside for his staff was stolen at the weekend. Mr Hodgson had left £150
— s om e o f i t f o r the b on u s e s — in a s to re -
workshop near his Fell View
home. But during the night of
Friday-Saturday someone broke into the store by smash ing a rear window. Clitheroe Police would like to hear from anyone who saw or heard anything suspicious in the area. Meanwhile Mr Hodgson was
making other arrangements for his staff to receive their Christmas boxes.
N o television
licences FINES totalling £170 were imposed on six people by Clitheroe magistrates for not having television licences. F ou r d e fen d an ts who
admitted not having colour licences were fined £35 each. T h ey w e re David John P a rk e r , C la y ton R ow , Langho; John Townson, Brookhouse Farm, Mitton Road, Whalley; Michael Wilcockson, Bolland Prospect, Clitheroe; and Alice Mossop, Chapel Rise, Billington. Admitting not having mono-
chrome licences, Richard Pollard, Lane Ends, Sabden, and Frank Morley, Larkhill, Old Langho, were each fined £15.
MAYOR’S FUND
D O N A T IO N S t o ta l l in g £270.50 have been received by the Town Mayor (Coun. John Blackburn) for his Christmas appeal. Latest contributions are:
£177 — previously acknow ledged; £25 — Trutex, Swan & Royal Hotel (Mr and Mrs B. R. Hanson); £12.50 — Stal wart Dyeing Co; £10 — B. Dugdale & Son Ltd; £5 — Drs Oliver, Hardy, Hampson & McKinlay; £4 — Drs Cassidy, Harrison, Parker & Neville; £3 — R. Pye; D. Lord & Son; £2 — Mrs Pickthall; J. Cowgill & Son; H. & M. Blackburn.
Jubilee trees
CUBS from the Ribblesdale pack have planted five trees in a scenic position by the side of Primrose Lodge, Clitheroe, as part of their jubilee celebra tions. The trees include three mountain ash, a cherry and a weeping willow.
enough to put up with. On Saturday night there were three coaches outside the inn, none of them using its car park, and they caused one way tra f f ic through the village. The noise wlien coaches are there at night is ludicrous.” The Committee agreed to a
suggestion from Coun. Bill Fleming, Langho, that talks should take place between the interested parties before a decision is made on the plans. Mr Perry told our reporter
there was no room on his property for extended park in g fa c i l i t ie s . He had approached the Hurst Green memorial hall committee in 1973 with a view to his coaches using the hall car park, adjacent to the Bayley Arms, but this had been rejected. Mr Per ry added: “ My
advisors will be prepared to meet anybody to discuss the matters if necessary. But I
would prefer the meeting to be dealt with under courtroom procedure and be the subject of a case, in a magistrates court. “ I have no intention of
allowing any discussions to become a personal slanging match.”
DELAY NOT RAILWAY COMPANY’S FAULT
ARISING from a story in the Advertiser and Times at the beginning of December about a road trip to Turkey by Newton driver Mr Bill Remayne, we have been asked by the German Federal Railway to state that they were in no way responsible for him missing the train to Yugoslavia and having to wait in Cologne for the next departure.
The ra i lw a y company
in fo r m s us t h a t Mr Redmayne’s lorry was in fact booked on the 03.20 hrs ferry from Dover to Ostend on November 9th, which would have allowed adequate time to reach the rail terminal well before the train was due to leave. Mr Redmayne’s lorry,
however, was not in Dover in time to be loaded on this particular ferry. A spok e sm an fo r the
German Federal Railway in the UK states: “We are rather concerned that your article may be damaging to our busi ness, as we feel that our “ ferry package,” whereby we undertake to book the cross channel ferry as well as to make the train booking for hauliers, o f fe r s haulage companies great financial
advantage, in particular smal ler companies. “ This road-rail service,
from Cologne to Ljubljana is run largely for the benefit of British road hauliers to enable them to overcome the difficul ties of obtaining road permits through the Federal Republic o f Germany, Austria and Yugoslavia when taking loads to the Near and Middle East. Mr Redmayne was this
week unavailable for comment as he is at present in Europe on behalf of his firm. But his colleague on the journey in November, Mr Christopher Knowles, of Pilling, said yesterday: “What the railway company says is correct. We had got our dates mixed up and arrived in Dover to catch th e 0 3 .20 hrs fe r ry on November 10th, the one we
thought we were booked on." FIRM NEEDS MORE ROOM
THE Clitheroe engineering firm of Neotechnic is expand ing so fast that its canteen is being taken over for produc tion purposes. Neotechnic was granted permission for a new tempor
ary canteen by the Ribble Valley Development Sub- Committee on Monday. A spokesman said the firm
was moving into new produc tion lines as well as expanding its existing ones.
The new canteen was a temporary measures until
larger scale improvements, f o r which the company already had permission, were carried out.
No joy for gymnasts
THE girls’ gym team of Edis ford School, Clitheroe was unlucky to go out in the first round of a national competi tion, losing to the team that beat them last year. The six-strong Edisford
t e am wa s b e a t e n b y Heyhouses School, St Annes, in a three-cornered battle with St Marie Goretti School, Preston, where the match was held. After the vault and indi
vidual sequence of the match Edisford were ahead, but a disastrous show in the group sequence meant they slipped to second. The match was in the Sunday Times-sponsored Schools’ Junior Team champ ionship, in which Edisford reached the third round last year before losing a controv ersial match to Heyhouses. Edisford were represented
by Lisa Ellis (10), Alison Watts (11), Julia King (11), Ailsa Spink (10), Debbie Grime (10) and Julie Lancas ter (9). The other two in the squad, which is coached by headmaster Mr J. Marsh and teacher Mr P. W. Lancaster, were Sarah Legg and Jackie Crowther. The boys’ gym team is
hoping for better luck in the competition early next year.
Jobs for
the lucky six
A 24-WEEK job creation scheme for six Ribble Valley unemployed will start in February if the Government’s Manpower Services Commis sion gives the go-ahead. Youth Leader Mr Geoff
Jackson will be putting the idea to an MSC representative tomorrow. The scheme will involve helping old people with their gardens, tidying and resurfacing the Whalley Adult Centre car park, and building a shelter on Grindle- ton recreation ground. It is intended that one of
the jobs should go to an unemployed graduate or teacher, one to a person with technical experience and the
others' to unemployed youngs ters. Finance for the scheme would be provided by the commission.
JACOB'S JOIN
LOW MOOR Good Compan ions had a Jacob’s join meal and an exchange of Christmas parcels at their last meeting of the year. Songs were performed by
Mrs B. Broome, Mrs Mercer and Mrs Booth, and a sketch entitled“On holiday, but never again” was given by Mr J, Scott and Mrs Ingham. Mr Scott also recited a
poem and Mrs Baron told a funny story. The meeting ended with community Bing ing of carols. Pianists for the evening were Mr Scott and Mr L. Christie, and helpers in the kitchen were Mrs E. Bush, Mrs S. Seedall, Mrs P. Davies, Mrs Crooks and Mrs Shuttleworth.
