STANIFORTH TAKES PX FOR WHALLEY


^ Whalley 131 for 9, Great Harwood 109 for 8.


IN thfe gathering gloom of late evening, Great Harwood finally surrendered to the ' supOTor all-round strength of Whalley. The visitors were eventually destroyed by left-'ann medium pacer John Staniforth who, in eight deadly accurate overs, took six for 21.'

AN unbeaten innings of 44 by Whalley professional Ken Snellgrove was the bright spot in this rain-hit Ribbles­ dale League match. Before the umpires aban­


doned play at 5-30 p.m. Snellgrove gave a confident display of stroke-making which showed he was back in form after a disappointing start to the season. His oppo­ site number, Bamoldswick’s new professional Williams, also looked impressive, taking three wickets for 46 off 12
