Keep up station fight,


council urged


CLITHEROE must go on fighting for the reopening of its . station, Coun. Howell Jones (Clitheroe) told, the Ribble Valley Council on Tuesday. Speaking on the coun­


cil’s decision to seek the county council’s view . on the station, Coun. Jones


said: “We have been told there is not a cat in hell’s


chance of reopening it, but it is up to us to lead the fight for a station.” Coun. B e r t Jones


(C l ith e r o e ) ag reed saying: “ It could be of great value to the people of Clitheroe and I think we should do all we can to see if this line can be reopened.” Chief Executive Mr


Michael Jackson com­ mented: “British Rail’s ac­ counting system in asses­ sing the profitability of lines is so ludicrous that it makes one think that they don’t want passengers.”


Depressed man took own life


A LOW MOOR man whose body was reco­ vered by the police from the Ribble at Waddow had been depressed for some time over the death of a friend, Blackburn C o ron e r Mr George Graham revealed at an in­ quest on Tuesday. He recorded a verdict


that Mr John Hitchen (68), of St Paul’s Street, killed himself after leav­ ing a note showing he was in a state of deep depres­ sion. His death was caused by asphyxia due to drowning. Mrs Alice Hargreaves,


of Queen Street, said that her brother, a retired tex­ tile worker, had visited her on Saturday. He had never directly threatened to take his life. Later in the day she


went to his home, where he lived alone, and found a note saying that he could not see any future and would be in the river. Mrs Hargreaves in­


formed the police, who found his body on Monday after a search.


New fiction added to


the library


NEW additions to the fiction stock at Clitheroe Library are: “ Light a penny candle’* —


M. Binchy. A novel brimming over with warmth and vitality interweaves the lives of two families, one Irish, one Engl­ ish, from the second world war to the sixties. “ Goodbye, Mickey Mouse’ ’


— L. Deighton. A story of men and machines stretched to the limit; of battle in the air and conflict on the ground; of love and fear, courage and ambition. “Thy brother’s wife” — A.


M. Greely. The story focuses on the p a ss ion s o f two brothers, one a priest and one a senator, who each in his own way loves the same woman. “ Partisans” — A. Mac-


Lean. Another spell-binding ad­ venture novel from this master story-teller. “ The heart speaks many


ways” — M. A. Polland. An enchanting romantic saga set in Spain, Ireland and England. before and during World War II.


“Where the rivers meet” —


Nicola Thome. This dynastic novel portrays a time, a place and a family to capture the heart and imagination of every reader.
