Rotarians renew ■ l pledge to serve fellow men


THE 75th anniversary of the founding of the - Rotary movement was celebrated by members of the Clitheroe and Ribblesdale Clubs at a service of thanksgiving at St Paul’s Church, Low Mo6r. T h e congregation of prayers were led by Canon


about^300 included many of John Hudson, vicar of


the 80 members of the two clubs, visiting Rotarians and friends, and represen­ tatives of o ther local organisations involved in voluntary community service.


, Also present 'were the


Mayors of the Ribble Val­ ley (Coun. Jimmy Fell) and Clitheroe (Coun. Bob Ains­ worth) and Clitheroe Divi­ sion MP Mr David Wad- dington.


The congregation was


received by the two presi­ dents, Rtn Eric Haigh (Clitheroe) and Rtn Barry Bearing (Ribblesdale).


The service was con­

Clitheroe and a former Rotarian at Padiham and Clitheroe. The address was by the


Bishop of Blackburn, the Rt Rev, Robert A S. Mar- tineau, who spoke of the i community involvement of Rotary and other organisa­ tions and the part Rotary played in breaking down. international barriers. Members could all be


rightly proud of telling publicly what they were doing, but the Bishop also referred to the importance of anonymous service to those in need. During the service the


objects of Rotary were read by Rtn Dearing and at the conclusion members


•pledged themselves anew to the service of fellow men — in their vocations, in their work and fellow­ ship within the clubs, in

British Isles six years later the communities in which and there are now 16,000 clubs throughout the world and more than 750,000 members. The Clitheroe club was


fo rm ed in 1933 and Ribblesdale in 1977. Sunday’s service took


the .form of songs of praise, with a choir from St Paul’s augmented by Rotarians ana friends. Rtn Donald Hartley, secretary


of the Clitheroe club, was organist and choirmaster. The lesson was read by

Low Moor houses in for design award


THE Riverside Housing Scheme at Low Moor has removed an eyesore and added to the stock of low­ er-priced private housing in the area. This was stated by the


Ribble Valley Council’s Chi e f Ex e cut i ve , Mr Michael Jackson,


in a


report to the Housing Committee. He outlined the facts of


Use library, Chatburn i urged


USE your branch library


— or lose it! That's the message to Chatburn villa­ gers from the parish council. Members of the council


have been distributing leaflets in the village urg­ ing people to make the most of the library, which r e c e n t ly escaped the county 'council’s economic axe after being included in a list of 20 recommended for closure. The council fears the


branch could still face the axe should the county council’s Library and Lei­ sure Committee decide on further cuts. A p p ro p r ia te ly , the


speaker at the parish coun­ cil’s annual meeting on March 21st, in the school hall, will be District Libra­ rian Miss Barbara Snell.

Brownies entertain


the scheme, which had been successful in relation


i to its original objectives, and .said that subject to


certain remedial work, the contract was at an end. Although there had been


criticism about the houses’ appearance, it was a mat­ ter of taste and opinion. “Council officers share


the view of residents that the estate is most satisfac- I tory from a design and vis­


ual point of view. Indeed it has been submitted for a design award,” he said. He o u t l i n e d the


pressures put on the legal and treasurer’s depart­ ment staff in dealing with a- large new scheme and the problems pioneers had to meet. In conclusion, Mr Jack-


son stressed that the need to help lower-income first- time buyers was still a great priority and while there were no immediate proposals to undertake similar schemes, circumst­ ances could warrant a


future project. Any such scheme would


be much smaller in scale and the administrative resources to handle it


l would need careful assess­ ment, although many of the basic problems had now been resolved. Coun. Mrs Beryl Cas­


sidy described the report as a very good one.
