■ The new van, which will be used in conjunction with the original one, is needed to cope with the tremend­ ous demand for breast screening throughout the Blackburn Health District.


The v a n s w i l l be


stationed in Clitheroe’s New Market Street each Tuesday between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Women who have been screened at’an earlier visit will have their yearly checks in the origi­ nal van and the second one will accommodate first- timers.


D is t r ic t community


physician Dr Peter Grime is hoping that- as many- women as possible, will use the units — particularly those aged 40 and over who are most vulnerable. . “Since the scheme


, started we have detected 17 cases in the first stages of breast cancer out of more than 5,000 checks,” said Dr Grime. “But for the screening


unit, these women would not have had their com­ plaints diagnosed until a later stage when treat­ ment is more difficult,” he said. . Same-day appointments


can be arranged by calling at the van.

for instance, now train at their own ground and have installed two floodlights by


the pitch. A couple of gas heaters in the dressing rooms make it a little more comfortable. Waddington FC mattr

with no training, our for­ tunes on the pitch could suffer, because our teams play in very competitive leagues." Clitheroe RUFC ha.s


bypassed the problem by sw i t c h in g ro om s a t Ribblesdale and readjust­ ing training times. Players now arrive at the school when the caretaker is on duty and use one of the dining rooms. Second XV skipper,


Chris Roberts, who is a teacher, at Ribblesdale, said the change had made things difficult, but the players were grateful for any alternative. Waiting in the wings,


praying for an end to the dilemma, are Clitheroe Cricket Club members. They are not training at the moment, but in the New Year will be hoping to use the nets in the gym. “We' can only wait and


hope that the situation has blown over by then,” said club captain John Boden. It is not just the sports


clubs which have felt the pinch. Though the evening activities in the adult edu­ cation programmes have gone ahead as planned, the


“early'bird” keep-fit ses­ sions in the gym have been cancelled, again because there is no caretaker in the building at the time.


CHRISTMAS MARKET


THE annual WI Christmas market, which tradition­ ally attracts crowds from a wide area,'will be held on Saturday, November 24th, in the lower Clitheroe Par­ ish Hall from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.

paperweights AT Clitheroe Soroptimist Club a fascinating lecture on the history of glass paperweights was given by Mrs H. Henshaw.


This colourful art form


developed in the French factories of Baccarat, Clichy and St Louis in the 19th century and was soon introduced to Britain, where it has become a popular and interesting nonby, though some items now fetch £30,000.


Several of Mrs Hen-


shaw’s own paperweights were shown, ranging from green “dumps,” originally used as door stops, to intri­ cate flower ana butterfly designs.


Mr s M. B a r r o w


expressed thanks and reported on her recent visit to the 45th Soroptim­ ist International Confer­ ence held at Kelvin Hall, Glasgow. About 1,700 members from all over the world attended the confer- ence, on the theme “Enriching life.”

were Sir John Wilson, Director of the Common­ wealth Society for the Blind; Margaret Drabble the author; John Drum­ mond, Director of the Edinburgh Festival, and Myr t l e Simpson, the explorer.

Three-day market opposed


A SUGGESTION by the Ribbie Valley Council that Clitheroe market should operate three days a week instead of the present two has met with the disap­ proval of the town council.


Coun. John Cowgill said


that although the market is an attraction to the town,


an extra day would not enhance it. He said that as the council was looking into the possibility of hav­ ing an aaded day in order to increase revenue, it would be better to increase the rents of the stalls.


He pointed out that mar­


ket traders visited diffe­ rent towns on certain days, and so might not be able to allocate an extra day for Clitheroe.


T h e . c o u n c i l h a s su g g es te d th a t


the


borough council looks into the question of raising rents as opposed to an extra market day.

8 DAYS


DEPARTING SATURDAY MAY 17th, 1980 and the LINCOLNSHIRE WOLDS


SKEGNESS — From the liny fishing village of the early 19th century which


Alfred, Lord Tennyson and his family, knew so well, Skegness has grown into a spacious town, beloved of'holidaymakers and famous among resorts. Shortly after the coming of (he railway inj 875 work was started on the laying out of the wide tree lined streets which characterise the town today. The 1,843 feet long pier was built in 1881, the church of Saint Matthew, the centrepoint of the "new" town, was com­ pleted in 1884 and in 1898 the clock lower was erected to commemorate the Diamond Jubilee of Queen Victoria. So the foundations were laid for the fame and popularity the resort now enjoys. Today tourists come by road to enjoy the invig­ orating air, the clean firm sands, the attrac­ tive gardens, excellent bowling greens and pitch and putt courses, boating lake and swimming pool, together with varied forms of entertainment and amusements. We


. hope that you will come with us to enjoy these attractions plus the delightful towns and scenery of the Lincolnshire Wolds and also a visit to Sandringham!


THE L I NCOLNSHI RE WOLDS — Officially designated an “Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty” the


Lincolnshire Wolds are an area of beautiful unspoilt countryside with high rolling hills and deep secluded valleys sheltering tiny old world villages and hamlets. They are a region rich in history and romance where craftsmen and artists work in peace within a few mijes of the lively holiday resorts of the coast.
