Milkman Stuart is Chamber’s — new leader


“EARLY BIRD” Mr Stuart Laraway, who starts work at the crack .of dawn, is this year’s president of Clitheroe and District Chamber of ' Trade. ,


- ' A fam iliar face in


Clitheroe because of his milk deliveries, he is part of the Snowdon and Lara-,


•way partnership. •'" Although' Mr. Laraway starts work very early getting up at 5 a.m., he does meet a lot of people. “ It’s surprising how many are up and about from 5- 30 to 6 o’clock,”-he said.


• Born in Oswaldtwistle,


he moved to the Ribble Valley when his father re­ tired from farming 21 years ago and now lives in C h atbu rn Clitheroe.


R oa d ,


• F o r s ix y e a r s he worked on a farm at Dow- nham, then started a milk round' in Accr ington. A fte r three years he started d e l iv e r ie s in Clitheroe, where he has been a dairyman for 13 years. He hopes that people


will continue to use the milkman to deliver their pintas as he, believes supermarkets are as much a threat to doorstep de- l iv e r ie s as the milk coming from abroad. Mr Laraway (39), who is treasurer of the Black-


. bum branch of the Na­ tional Dairymen’s Associa­ tion, says that one of his priorities during'his year of office is to make, the pu b l ic aware o f the Chamber of Trade and its work. His wife, Elizabeth, is a


ptionist at Clitheroe


Health Centre and the couple have a daughter, Jacqueline (14), a pupil of


: Ribblesdale'School, and a son, Alec (13), who at­ tends Clitheroe Royal Grammar School. In his spare time • Mr


Laraway enjoys gar­ dening.


Service is


recpgnised THREE local Scout lead­ ers have received awards to mark their service to the movement. Mrs Vera Snape, who


has completed 15 years in the Clitheroe district, was presented with the long service award. Mr Keith Robinson re­


ceived the Chief Scout’s Commendation for all his work, particularly for Cub Scout football .in the dis­ trict and at St Mary’s. The Medal of Merit was


awarded to Mr C. M. Snape, Group S cou t leader of the 1st Bowland' troop, to mark his many years in the movement. Mi- Fred Law, County


Commissioner for East Lancashire, made the pre­ sentations.


Takes charge at ICI plant


A NEW man has taken over the boss’s chair at Clitheroe’s ICI plant — one of the world’s largest suppliers of catalysts.


He is Mr Martin Hill Johnstone who was prom-


(41), who has been-trans­ ferred from the combine’s giant agricultural division at Billingham, Cleveland. Mr Hill replaces former .works manager Mr Jim


oted last September to take charge of the nitro­ gen fertiliser factory at Heysham. Although born in India,


Mr Hill has a strong affin­ ity with Lancashire — his family moved to Heysham a fte r returning from abroad. He attended Lancaster


Grammar School and Manchester University, where he graduated with a B.Sc. in chemical en­ gineering. Mr Hill joined ICI in


1964 as a process engineer and four years later became plant manager at ■ a fertiliser complex near Bristol. In 1975 he was moved


back to Billingham where he held several manage­ rial posts. Married with two sons,


Mr Hill lists his main hob­ bies as squash, golf, d in g h y s a i l in g and wallang.

DISC jockey Phil Case is ready to hit the road again. Phil, of Riverside, Low


Moor, ran into problems recently when he lost his engagements diary con­ taining dates of weddings, birthdays and private functions through to November. However, after the Ad­


vertiser and Times high­ l igh ted his problem', everyone who had booked Phil called him up with a reminder. “ Everyone responded


marvellously,” said Phil. There was also a nice ges­ ture from an unknown person who pushed a new . diary, through his door!


40 years on


for YFC C L ITH E RO E Young Farmers’ Club will cele­ brate its 40th birthday with a dinner-dance at the Stirk House Hotel, Gis- bum, on April '27th. Former members are


invited, and among the guests will be county or­ ganiser Mr George Whit­ field, and a man who did the job 28 years ago, Mr Richard Sutton. Tickets are available

Warm welcome , clinches move ' from Windsor


. A WARM Lancashire welcome has helped to attract a clergyman from an important post at Windsor Castle to a vacant living in the Ribble


Valley. While thinking about


ta k in g o v e r at St Leonard’s, Langho, the Rev. Quentin Harcourt Wilson and his wife, Jackie', toured the parish with church officials. “We were strangers to


this part of the country and it was the warm wel­ come we received that convinced us we should move north,” said Mr' Wilson. A gifted organist, Mr


Wilson (38) has been at St George’s Chapel in the , castle for the past three years and has been re­ sponsible for arranging choral services. His responsibilities also


include the pastoral care of castle residents and estate workers in Windsor Home Park. , . A f te r ordination in


1970, Mr Wilson became curate at Christ Church- with-St John and St Luke in London’s West End. Before moving to Wind­


sor he was curate at St James’s, Muswell Hill, and succentor, sacrist and priest-vicar at Exeter Cathedral. Mr Wilson, who is a


Fellow of Trinity College of Music, graduated in Di­ vinity in 1976. Mr Wilson, who has


two daughters aged five and three, will take up his new post in September.


0 He succeeds the Rev. Paul Warren, who was ap­ pointed chaplain to the , Bishop of Blackburn last summer.”


Calling


philatelists! INTERESTED in stamp collecting? Two Clitheroe men


have decided to try and set up a philatelic society in the Ribble Valley and want to contact prospec­ tive members. Jim Masterman and


Alan Kay have been in­ terested in the hobby for about six years and feel the \ area lacks such a society. Anyone interested can


reach ’Jim on Clitheroe 22531 or Alan on 23707 between 7 and 8 p.m., while during the day Jim can be con ta c ted at Clitheroe police station and Alan at the ambu­ lance station.


Trophy back


on offer THE dust is soon to be wiped o ff an old road safety trophy which has not been competed for


in almost 20 years. Clitheroe Town Council


agreed to a suggestion from road safety officer PC Brian Blackburn that the trophy should go to th e w in n e r s o f the Clitheroe league of the


junior schools’- road safety competition.


The Littlewood’s Trophy


was originally competed for by individuals in the Clitheroe Borough and rural district, but has not been on offer since 1966.


, The Clitheroe league in­ cludes the Chatburn and Waddington schools.

M NSPCC quiz


on antiques ANTIQUE enthusiasts will be heading for Stony- hurst College next month when a Sotheby’s quiz and dinner - is being held to ra is e cash fo r the NSPCC. Those taking part in the


quiz will be shown 10 antique objects and will have to write as much as possible about them. Three Sotheby’s experts: will then give a talk about each of the items and the papers will be marked. Anyone with a.correct


paper will receive a copy of the Sotheby’s Year­ book. After the quiz a dinner


will be held in the ban­ queting hall. The event has been or­


ganised by the Lancashire Centenary Development Appeal Committee of the NSPCC, which is aiming to raise £80,000 above its normal income. Attendance is limited to


160 and tickets are £12 each.


Tories’


choice PROSPECTIVE Conser­ vative candidate for the p rop o s ed Lancashire Central European consti­ tuency, which will include the Ribble Valley, is Mr Michael Welsh, of Whit- tle-le-Woods, Chorley. Mr Welsh (41) has rep­


resented the existing Lan­ cashire Central in the European^ Parliament since 1979. He is Conser­


vative group spokesman on economic and monetary affairs and is a member of the group’s executive committee. Previously he served as


group spokesman on fore­ ign trade. He is also a member o f the Parlia­ ment’s delegation to the US Congress. Before his 'election in


1979, Mr Welsh, who is married with two chil­ dren, was director of market development for Levi Strauss Europe, a subsidiary of the Ameri­ can jeans and leisurewear manufacturer.


On shortlist


THE Harrop Fold Farm Guest House, Bolton-by- Bowland, is on the short­ list for a regional market­ ing award, thanks to its farm holidays. The north-west winner


of the NFU-Mutual-Mar- keting competition will re­ ceive a special trophy and a trip to Paris to . attend Sial, the top French inter­ national food exhibition.


Future in good hands


THERE is a youth or­ ganisation in our rural area which quietly, continuously, and with little publicity, works steadfastly on and for which I have the greatest possible ad­ miration. I refer to the National


Federation of Young Far­ mers’ Clubs and my admi­ ration is based on a good deal of personal experi­ ence. Over the years I have entertained at their annual parties (and what parties these are!) spoken at their meetings, and ad­


judicated at their various inter-club contests and competitions at- both dis­ trict arid county levels. Once they even invited


me to be a meiriber of a brains trust, but perhaps that was a mistake.


Why do I admire them?


There are many good reasons. Firstly, I admire the clubs’ independence. They are completely self-' supporting and never yet, in my experience, have I seen them appealing for public financial assistance for their many worthwhile aims and projects!' ' Secondly, I. admire the


■ quality of. their, work, so frequently on; display at.


.the local agricultural, : f loral and handicraft


Whalley Window


shows and, on a , much ■ grander scale, at the Royal Lancashire and other county events. Thirdly, the Young


Farmers have earned my respect because, without any direct appeal, they so frequently show them­ selves willing to help and assist others. • . A couple.of years ago


when I was involved in fund-raising for the Inter­ national Year 'of the .Disjj abled, several very gener-: ous donations were re­ ceived from , clubs in our district.


. ‘ A few years earlier when our village rep­ resented Lancashire. in the great nationwide Fes­ tival of English Villages, the Bowland Young Far­ mers provided a whole af-


’ ternoon’s entertainment on our Abbot’s Way play- ; area, demonstrating, a wide variety of country crafts ■ and. : rurab sports


arid skills, at1 minimal expense. Audiences o f , several


hundred •,were'"vastly-en­ tertained' by their efforts l .


and learned quite a lot about our country way of life. A grand bunch ,of • young people! I could go on with inst­


ance after instance, but lastly . I admire them be­ cause'they have somp of the best, most competent branch secretaries I have ever encountered 1 (and that includes several dozen).


Their letters are always


- to the point, business-like and well written. In­ q u ir ie s are a lw a y s promptly dealt with and, when a visit is requested, and the meeting place is remote, or obscure, they


i invariably include a route- map ..with precise details


; and information. What more can anyone ask?


Thus, I take off my bat­


te red Void tr i lb y and expose my balding brow to Young Farmers every­ where.


Their work is eminently


worthwhile" and their keenness and enthusiasm is such that we need have :little,fear for the future of


' farming and agriculture in this country — the EEC permitting!-,


' -When their “dads”,, and : “grand-dads” are no more, '.the jYoung Farmers of .Britain . will still be the “daddies of them all” ; ''' ■ J .F .
