Flu closes hospital ward


RUMOURS of a "killer flu" outbreak at Clitheroe Hospi­ tal have been denied by a hospital spokesman. No new patients are being


admitted to a ward at the hospital. But the spokesman said this had been done on the advice of a consultant because of a number of cases


of flu. He said that there had


been deaths in the ward in recent weeks but it was difficult to assess how far flu contributed to them. One patient who died in the ward was 102, another was 99. The spokesman said:


“There is no epidemic of flu at the hospital and I would not want relatives to become alarmed. We shall start admitting patients to the ward again when we are satisfied that the precau­ tions have been successful.”

Pool


A PLAN to turn a stone- built barn into a swimming pool has been approved by the Ribble Valley Council’s D e v e l o p m e n t Sub- Committee. The committee was told that Mr E. Ingham, of Hammond Drive, Read, intended to build a 30ft x 14ft pool in the barn as well as changing facilities. Approval was granted subject to five conditions, involving safeguards against pollution, using the pool only for private purposes and landscaping.


N o l ig h t s


THREE local motorists who parked their cars without lights in a 40 mph zone in Barrow were each fined £10 at Clitheroe. Stuart Briggs (25), Turner Street; Derek Thompson (35), Taylor Street, and Philip Joseph Baines (21), of Eastmoor Drive, all of Clitheroe, pleaded guilty.


River poacher fined £350


WHEN a water bailiff tipped off the police about a poacher, the man claimed that he had not been out that night. But the officers noticed


that his car was warm and they found wet clothing at his home, together with a sack containing a net. Fish scales in the sack were later identified as being from sea trout and salmon.


Clitheroe when Geoffrey Holt, of Fairfield Drive, Clitheroe, was found guilty in his absence, and fined £350 with £140 costs for fish- ing without a licence. Confiscation of his net and other articles was ordered.

Court the driver, Brian Furness (33), of Central Avenue, Clitheroe, was fined £10. The owner, Winifred Hargreaves (52), of Whalley Road, was fined £10 in each case of employ­ ing an unlicensed driver, using the mini-bus without PSV licence and failing to keep records. She was also fined £50 for using the vehi­ cle without insurance. Mr T. U. Liddle, defend­


ing, said the darts team was taken to Whalley in two taxis. When they rang up asking to be brought home earlier than arranged, Mrs Hargreaves was not in.


a part-time driver rather foolishly took the mini-bus. He had no authority to do so but, as his employer, Mrs Hargreaves must accept responsibility. Explaining that the mini­


bus was awaiting completion of modifications, Mr Liddle said it had not previously been on the road, ‘and there­ fore accounts and records were not required. Failure to keep these


were purely a technical offence. Mbs Hargreaves was comparatively new to the taxi business and she was in some measure “work­ ing in the dark?
