and other more fortunate townspeople have been able to see the Castle as a permanent reminder of those who died. 'T o those who did not

Open spaces being eroded
IS Clitheroe old town going to be changed to Clitheroe new town? Clitheroe, a Lancashire
town of great character and tradition, is quickly losing its historic value and rural flavour.
Since the formation of
the Ribble Valley Council th e w h o le s c e n e in' Clitheroe is changing. Once there were open

3 Encourage
' youngsters to join . adult
classes
I AM . writing to ask if there are any-people in the Clitheroe area willing to run craft classes for young teenagers.
My daughter wants to
learn lace-making, but as she is only 12 she cannot join' the adult education class at Ribblesdale where the
lower.age limit is-16.
It seems a great pity to
discourage children of this age as many of them are very keen to learn and may have lost interest by the time* they are 16.
-I understand that there
has to' be a minimum of 10 people in a class and -that- some classes have diffi culty in making up that number and have to he dis continued. Perhaps by admitting younger, people, some of the. classes would be better attended and more c la s s e s w ou ld survive. I am told that there
might be objections from adults to having young people in a class with them. I would think that any youngster who enrols for an evening class would do so out of a genuine desire to learn — and would not create any dif ficulties. M. L. SWINDELLS, “Ridings”, Whalley Old Road, Billington
Speakers’ aims
outlined
THE aims of Clitheroe Speakers’ Club were out lined by vice-president Mr. Stanley Blackburn during a recent open meeting at
the.town’s Swan and Royal Hotel. Chairman for the even
ing was Mr Ian Cooke, vic e-president of the Western
■District ASC. A table topics session,
chaired by Mr Chris Roberts, produced some entertaining replies. The main speech, “Pennies: from Heaven,” was by Mr Lionel Patterson. A ques tions and answers session followed. Evaluations were given
by Mr Bernard Malsbury, Mr Alan Ross and Mr Brian Driscoll.
Holy Land party enjoys the sun
THE Vicar of Chipping, the Rev. Thomas Green, and his wife Irene returned home at the weekend after a 12-day trip to the Holy Land, where he and a party of 13 from the Chipping and Preston area sweltered in temperatures of more than 100 deg. F.

Driver hit gatepost ‘to avoid accident’
A CAR driven by Philip* James Smalley (20), of Ray Head Farm, Bolton-by- Bowland, came round a blind bend “like a bat out of hell,” a woman eyewit ness told Clitheroe magis trates. Sm a l ley was found
guilty of driving without due care and attention on Sawley Road and was fined £30. He had to pay witnesses’ expenses of £15. Mr R o b e r t . H ir s t
(defending) said that when Smalley drove into the bend he came across an accident.. Rather than run into the two cars involved, he steered for a gateway, but hit one of the posts. Smalley denied a sug
gestion by Insp. Bill Moore (prosecuting) that he had been travelling far too fast and had lost control. He also denied having tried to race one of the cars invol ved in the accident when returning from Sawley races. - Mr Hirst admitted that
Smalley had been right when he made an on-tne- spot decision to aim for the gateway to avoid the other vehicles.

party swam in the Dead Sea, the Sea of Galilee and the Mediterranean. Mr Green, who led the pilgrimage to Jerusalem,
Bethlehem, Hebron and Jericho, said'it had been a marvellous trip. He is already planning another visit — his'fourth — next August. . On the outgoing flight
Mr Green was delighted to find that a fellow pas senger was Canon David Elliott, the new Dean of St George's Cathedral in Jerusalem. St George’s is the chief
Anglican church in the city ana Mr Greenland his party were able to attend the Institution service.

Garden club’s fruitful year
MEMBERS of Clitheroe Garden- Club have benefited much from their'sales hut because of bulk purchasing, it was reported at the annual meeting. However, this was how
it should be, for the hut was not primarily run for profit, said the chairman, Mr Geoff Sainsbury. In general terms the
club had enjoyed a success ful year and it was felt that the time had come when members might venture to put on a small competitive show of their own in addi- tion to supporting the Flower Cluo’s annual event. Mrs D. Green, trea-
