VEKA windows and doors need no painting whatsoever. Their attractive colour and smooth surface finish are permanent features. Maintenance demands only an occasional light lubrication of hinges and locks. These are real benefits when compared with the annually increasing cost of, and disruption caused by regular painting of soft wood and metal frames.

MADE TO RESIST ATMOSPHERIC CONDITIONS


Undoubtedly the most appealing benefit of VEKA windows and doors is their total resistance to atmospheric conditions. Extremes of heat, cold, sun, rain and wind create multiple problems in windows and doors of wood and metal. Veka frames are immune to such hazards. They will not rust, oxidise, warp rot or deform even when climatic conditions are further aggravated by the salt-laden and polluted atmospheres encountered in coastal and heavily industrialised regions.

their musical marathon will be generously spon­ sored by members of the 10 ch u r ch e s in the Clitheroe circuit. There will be bring-and-


buy and church book stalls, and refreshments will be available.

WHALLEY motorist An­ thony Arnfield, of Sydney

GRAND Knight Mr Vincent Long (right), of the Clitheroe and Whatley Knights of St Columba, presented a cheque for £300 to Dr Peter Grime, district community physician

“TURKEY and tipple” was the treat laid on at a social evening for members and friends of Whalley Cricket and Tennis Club. Hosts were Mr and Mrs David Taylor, of


Milton Road, Whatley, who welcomed about 50 guests into their home for the occasion. Mr Taylor is secretary of the club’s tennis section and the event was organised by the


social committee. A wheel of fortune provided an amusing extra


and raised about £100, which will go towards restoration work to the club’s pavilion at Sta­

TWO Ribble Valley men were among hundreds in the North of England who spotted a bright light in th e s k y e a r ly on


Thursday. Mr Norman Garner, of


Waddington, saw the light as he was leaving Broc- khall Hospital, and a


friend, Mr Kevin Johnson, o f G r in d le t o n , was another witness as he drove home from Holden. But their claims that


they had probably seen a meteorite, which landed near the Clitheroe-Whal- ley by-pass, have proved unfounded. On Saturday, local as­


tronomers Mr Norman Crompton and Mr Philip Horrocks went with them to scour fields between Brockhall and the by­ pass. But nothing was found


and the astronomers now think the meteorite, poss­ ibly from the constellation Lyra, must have landed at least 30 miles away in Yorkshire.

THE Clitheroe Parish Church Restoration fund’s latest money making effort, “Songs from the shows” proved a resounding success. It made £450, bringing the amount so far raised


to £13,250. Producer of the show,


Edmond Cambien, has ex­ pressed thanks to the Haslingden and 'Helm- shore Band, under the di­ rection of Bill Spry, Philip Dobson and members of the Clitheroe Parish Church Operatic Society for their help in making the show possible.


’ Three Clitheroe youngs­

The following day, with the help of Carol Edward- son (11), also of Shaw­ bridge Street, they held another sale, and raised a further £4. They gave half to the fund and the rest to the Clitheroe Heart Machine fund.
