TIME is a gift from God and should be used to the best of our ability, Mrs M. Neason told members of Trinity Ladies’ Afternoon


• Fellowship in Clitheroe. She was thanked for her


timely talk by Mrs J . Wil­ kinson, presiding. At next Wednesday s

Clitheroe. He was one of a group of


Ribble Valley councillors and officials who met workers constructing the gritters for the Depart­ ment of Transport. The party was shown


round the firm’s Kendal Street premises by manag­ ing director Mr Tony Hum­ phreys (pictured standing next to the Mayor). Also in the party were


sales director Mr Roger Parker, technical manager Mr Jef f Cowling, produc­ tion,director Mr Alan Mil­ ler, financial director Mr Ronald Hughes and rep­ resentatives of the firm’s staff and works commit­ tees.


Atkinson’s announced


• this week that it has won, a £250,000 contract for Brit­ ish Rail's first-ever snow­


blower. The Atkinson/Beilhack


rotary blower will be mou n t ed on a s e l f - propelled rail car powered by a 200h.p. diesel engine. The unit’s top speed of 80k.p.h. puts the whole of BR’s mainland network within 24 hours’ range. The blowers, which can


be adjusted to clear snow on bends, can be disman­ tled so the rail car can be


'used for maintenance duties in the summer. After tests in West Ger


many, the blower will undergo trials, probably in Scotland. Under the contract


which should be completed by the winter, Atkinson’s will also train BR’s drivers and operators.


L i t t l e m o o r R o a d , Clitheroe, admitted driv­ ing without due care and attention and was fined £20. She was given a abso­ lute discharge for failing to stop after an accident and failing to report it. Mr Greenwood (defend­


ing) said his client was blinded by the sun. The other driver had stopped in Chatburn Road but as he did not get out of his car she thought the bump must have been only slight. She had paid £15 for the damage caused.

THE men of Clitheroe Speakers Club will be aim­ ing to put a word in edge­ ways when they meet members of Blackburn Ladies’ Speakers Club a week on Tuesday. The ladies have been invited to a joint meeting at the Swan and Royal Hotel, .Clitheroe, at 7-30

Furniture storage needed


THE Ribble Valley is


■ desperately short of some­ where to store unwanted furniture that, could be given to those in need. The Ribble Valley Par­

Clitheroe. ' ' She told our reporter:


“There was a slight panic when we started tne collec­ tion b e cau se ' we ■ had nowhere i to ; store items,
