Cash worry for hospitals


PROBLEMS are forseen by hospital administrators due to the need for cut­ backs to meet cash spend­ ing limits.


A report given to the


Lancashire Area Health Authority indicates that progress is being made in cutting the gap between anticip ated hospital spending and money avail­ able in the Burnley Health District.


The allocation for pay


awards and price in­ creases will fall short by about £50,000. There are, however, some shortfalls of expenditure in other categories. . But' the report points


out that cut-backs in maintenance and non-re- petive work could have a serious effect in the long term.


Chemists’ rota


TODAY and tomorrow, Charles Clegg, Church Street, will be open from 6 to 7 p.m. Sunday: R. N. and M. Read, Moor Lane, noon to 1 p.m. Monday to Friday 6 to 7 p.m.


SOME 250 members and parishioners' of Clitheroe Catholic Social Centre saw in the New Year in style at their annual party. The Phil Case disco


provided the music throughout the evening and at midnight, the star cabaret took to the stage in the form of Raymond Calvert (as “Punk Rock Jock”), Bill Taylor, Ian Tomlinson, Edward Worswick and John Turner, all clad in fancy dress. Entertainment and


games throughout the evening included a limbo dancing session, and John Turner, of York S treet , is pictured trying to “beat the bar.”


u Unity


CLITHEROE churches will be joining'forces; to mark the Week of Prayer for Christian unity from January 18th to 25th. • Activities — which in­

Keeping village in trim


WADDINGTON Parish Council has appointed a new lengthsman — Mr Dick Isherwood, of Beech- thorpe Avenue, in the village. Mr Isherwood will be responsible for the gener­ al tidiness of the village, including maintenance on the playing field, work in the Coronation Gardens, hedge and grass cutting and painting for the parish council. He will work 48 hours a


month for the parish council, although other village organisations will be able to employ him for similar jobs. Originally the council


hoped to share a lengths­ man with Clitheroe Town Council, but could not find anyone to do the job full­ time.

Kingsmill Avenue, and brothers Peter and Paul Sanderson, aged eight and nine, of Park Head, Port- field Bar, disappeared from their homes on Saturday morning and were eventually found in a barn at Wilkin Hey Farm, Sabden, shortly after 11 p.m'. . A number ,of police of­ ficers, who had .been due to go off duty at '10 p.m:, stayed. on to - help •.their task force, colleagues, find the1 boys, who had gone without food all: day and were, carrying only a single bag of clothes. ? , “We had as many offic­ ers as we could spare out looking for the boys and we covered a very wide area,” said Insp. > Bill Moore, o f C.litheroe Police. “We started the search


around 8 p.m. and obvi­ ously had to find the boys as soon as we could be­ cause of the cold weather. We searched miles of wooded country before we heard that they had ‘given th emse lv e s up’ in Sabden.” . Nathan’s father, Mr


Brian Wilson, who works at Calderstones Hospital, said his first hint of the “disappearance” was when his son failed to return home before darkness fell. Mr Wilson said he had allowed Nathan — an “ad-


* venturous type” — to go out and play when the Sanderson boys called for him on Saturday morning. “But when he didn’t


return before dark, went to the Sandersons’ home to check if he was there. -When I found he wasn’t, I came home as quickly as I could and called the police,” said Mr Wilson, who then searched all Nathans favourite play areas. “My wife and I had just


returned from a long search when we heard that the lads Had’ been found safe. Apparently Nathan had given himself up in tears when he real; ised just , how cold . the night was going to , he in that barn.


' r' '


'Mrs Carol Mellows, 'in whose barn the boys were found, said Nathan knock-, ed at her door asking for help.


.... ....... .. " “We .brought the boys


; into the house and ‘gave, them a hot drink,” she said.


,1 . . “They were very frigh­


tened - and. didn’t realise they, had walked so far. I


,,?am . only . glad that . .they '/.’decided, to. seek ouir help when they did.”

TO P T W E N J Y


Firm is ‘cautiously


optimistic’ REDUNDANCY notices to 50 knitwear workers at Lancaster H o s ie ry ’ s


■Waterloo .Mill base- in .Clitheroe have been with­ drawn for the second time


'in five months: This latest development


came after the company received an accumalation of orders to give a healthy outlook for the early part of this year. Boss Mr Bill Perkins


says he is “cautiously op­ timistic” about the future. The notices were origi­


nally issued to the work­ ers shortly before: the start of last year’s annual summer break. Then talks over con


tracts that would lead to new orders appeared to be going-so well that the notices were .withdrawn in August — only to be re­ issued the following week as 'the order prospects disappeared. The latest twist in the


firm’s fortunes meant the workers . were told their jobs were safe shortly before Christmas.

CLITHEROE United Re; formed /Church has ) bright new look — thanks to members of the congre­ gation -who have raised about £9,000 for'’decorat­ ing, repointing and re­ furbishing. ' Fund raising for the im­


provements started three years 'ago. About £4,000 had been amassed when work started in' spring last year.


' The remaining £5,000


has comhTrom'the c&ngi'e- garion by supporting money-raising - efforts, by a grant from the Depart­ ment of the Environment, gifts in memory of mem­ bers who had died and from the reserve account. Work has included re­ plastering and redecorat­ ing the church, and re­ pointing outside. An am­ plification system has also been installed, provided by the Wednesday Circle. The next project is to


carpet the aisles. A fund has already been started with that in mind. Said the minister, the Rev. John Salsbury: “The im­ provements are a continu­ ing process with us as we constantly try to upgrade the property.”
