in law, is the daughter of Mr and Mrs J. F. Richardson, of Hammer- ton, Old Road, Chatburn.


The bridegroom, an


electronics graduate, is the son of Mr and Mrs K. W. Harris, of Dinting Road, Glossop, Derby­


shire. The bride, who was


given away by her father, wore a gown of pale ivory silk crepe de chine with a train and a floor-length veil of ivory silk tulle. She canned pink roses, pink and white carnations, stephanotis, gypsophila and trailing fem. Bridesmaids were the


bride’s sister, Miss Sarah Richardson, the brideg­ room’s sister, Miss Gillian Harris, and Miss Naomi


Lamptey. The sisters wore full-


length off-the-shoulder dresses in French blue


cotton print and Naomi had a similar print dress with a pie-crust collar. They had pink flowers in their hair and carried small bouquets of pink flowers similar to the bride’s. Best man was Mr Nigel


Hams, the bridegroom’s brother, and ushers were Mr Nick Riley and Mr Peter Elliot. The ceremony was per­


formed by the Rev. T. J Bradshaw, of Chatburn and the Rev. J. Chilton, of Glossop. Organist was Mr Clifford Johnson. During the service the


song “ Stay close, stay faithful” was sung by Mrs Rosemary Lancaster, of Clitheroe, and Mr Dave Roberts, of Dagenham. They were joined in


singing choruses during the signing of the register by Miss Sue Walker, Miss Alison Brewer and Miss Katherine Leach. After a reception at the


Old Stone House, Mitton the couple left for a hon­ eymoon in Dorset. They will live in Havant Hampshire.


THE story of a man who faced a medical bill for £77,000 after an accident while on a visit to Ameri­ ca so touched the hearts of Slaidbum Young Far­ mers that they decided to do something about it.


Sixteen of them held a


sp on s o red swim at Clitheroe after being told the story by Slaidburn YFC vice-chairman Claire Townson, o f Hillside Drive, West Bradford, and they raised £192 by com­ pleting 248 lengths.


Claire, who' suggested


the swim, said: “It’s only a small amount compared with the total bill, but YFCs all over are doing their bit for the young farmer from Surrey.”

“ It’s the first time we The 16 who took part


were: Lorraine New- house, Michelle New- house, Ann Parker, Jill Parker, Helen Parker, Rich ard S ch o f ie ld , Elizabeth Schofield, Brian Pinder, Susan Pinder, Philip Pinder, Katy Pinder, Helen Sharpies, Andrea Sharpies, Joan Robinson, Kay Hulatt and Claire Townson.


Mr Walter Brayshaw, branch secretary, who


produces the show, said that last year’s festival was a great success and the Legion was hoping for the town’s backing again on November 5th. On the night there will


be displays by local Army, Navy and Air Force Cadets, the St John Ambulance Cadets and pupils from St Augus­ tine’s, Billington. The service itself will


be taken by Canon John Hudson, the branch chap­


lain. During November, of


course, the branch mem­ bers will be hal’d at work in connection with the poppy day appeal. The branch has formed


a “Poppy Day Committee” and a coffee morning has already raised £114 for the fund. After last year winning


the East Lancs Area Trophy for efficiency, Clitheroe is aiming to again do well in the com­ petition which is based on branch activities. Coming events include


a Poppy Ball on November 4th at which a


poppy queen will bo chosen. Any young ladies


interested in entering the competition should contact Mr Brayshaw on Clitheroe 24789. The branch is also


hoping to start a youth movement for young


people. A leader would be ap­


pointed to teach various outdoor skills such as camping, fishing and canoeing, and on the social side there would be discos, dances and excur­


sions. The youngsters would


also be involved in com­ munity service, visiting


hospitals and the home


bound. All these events are in


addition to the work the branch does on the be­ nevolent side, particularly in arranging for ex-ser­ vicemen and widows to stay at Legion convales­ cent homes such as Bing House, Southport. There has been a L eg ion branch


Clitheroe since the organ­ isation was formed 1921.


Membership has had its


ups and downs. At pre­ sent there are 207 ex-ser­ vice members and 175 as­ sociates. “But that is not a lot


out of Clitheroe’s popula­ tion of 13,000,” says Mr Brayshaw, who would like to' see more local people taking an interest in the branch and the work it is doing.

SA L TH IL L Quarry, Clitheroe, has been hailed as Britain’s most adv­ anced project combining geological conservation and industry on the same site. The tribute was paid by


the Ribble Valley Mayor, Coun. Ted Boden, when he officially opened the exhibition at the Castle Museum promoting the Salthill geological trail.


The trail crowned a


joint effort by the council, the Lancashire and Grea­ ter Manchester Joint Re­ clamation Team, and the Nature Conservancy Council, he said.


Now this achievement


was further boosted by the museum’s geological display which includes a panoramic photograph of the trail covering three


walls, said the Mayor. The exhibition launch


was attended by Ribble Valley councillors and specialists from the world of geology and museums. They were later taken


on a tour of the trail by the County Museums Of­ ficer Mr John Blundell, assisted by the Castle Museum’ s as sistant keeper of geology, Mr Neil Turner, who ar­ ranged the exhibition, and Clitheroe geologist Mr Stanley Westhead. The display features ty­ pical fossils and glacial


boulders from the trail, plus diagrams and expla­ nations of the geological


features. Included are examples c r in o id s and


o f


brachiopods, with recon­ struction of what the plants looked like when growing on the sea bed millions of years ago. Free leaflets about the


trail are available at the exhibition room. The Ribble Valley Council anticipates that the dis­ play will considerably boost interest in the trail


and geology. Salthill Quarry has long


been of great interest to geologists for its unrival­ led examples of “reef’ de­ posits of lower car­ boniferous age. The quarry was also


one of the geological areas used in developing the theory of the Continental Drift.'
