The 3C bid was obviously


asking East to bid a four card major. North chose to double this for an. opening lead, as South was likely to be on lead. ■ East chose to bid 3S rather than 3H and thus the slam was played in GS, rather then 6H which can not make. South duly led the 8C and this en­ abled the contract to make. Many players play the re­ sponse to the 3C bid by bidding


four card suits in ascending order (BARON) rather than th e a b o v e c o n v e n t io n (STAYMAN). W dealer, game all.

Kennels’ plan is vetoed


THE proposed change of use of a Whalley house to boarding kennels brought 18 letters of objection from local residents. The Ribble Valley


Council’s Development Sub-committee was told that residents close to Cross House, Broad Lane, feared the sound of barking dogs all day and the increased fouling of footpaths. The committee turned


down planning consent on the grounds that the degree of noise would be unneighbourly, there was insufficient space for the parking and manoeuver- ing of clients’ cars and, access was poor.


Demolition


THE demolition of an ex­ tension and rebuilding of


a new one at Istana, Stop­ per Lane, Rimington, has been given planning con­ sent by the Ribble Valley


Council. The plan also in eludes erection of an addi­ tional garage, provision of new access and extension or residential curtilage.

Young BMX riders show their skill


THIRTY young riders gave their wholehearted approval to Clitheroe’s first long-awaited BMX track when they provided a spectacular display of trick cycling at the open­ ing ce rem ony on Saturday. Heavy showers could


not dampen the en­ thusiasm of the youngs­ ters as mud, glorious mud, added to the excite­ ment of the occasion. They demonstrated


their prowess at the Roefield track following the opening ceremony, performed by Coun. Mrs Myra Clegg, chairman of the Recreation and Lei­ sure Committee of the

Wayne Boothman in the 9-11 classes emerged as best overall performer and was presented with a shield by Coun. Mrs Clegg. He and Jason Salisbury,


riding in the eight and under section, both col­ lected 27 points but it was decided to award Wayne the championship because he had competed in clas­ ses attracting more com­ petitors. Third was G e o f f


Parker, competing in the 12-14 classes, with 23 points. Coun. Mrs Clegg said:


“The track’s water-splash obstacle proved very popular and the children had a lovely time giving us a spectacular display. They were all covered in mud at the end of the day!” The scheme, prompted


tra ck will go from strength to strength and perhaps lead to others being opened in the Ribble V a lley ,” said Coun. Mrs Clegg. The opening competi­


tions were organised by Mr Winston Macintosh, leader of the Waddington and West Bradford Youth Groups, who also gave a talk on safety and bicycle maintenance. Materials for the track


were donated by Ribble Cement and the construc­ tion work was tackled by young offenders on a com­ munity service scheme. The work behind the scheme was co-ordinated by Ribble Valley Sports Council.

YOUNGER STORY


began 1749-and we’re still writing it.


It takes time to build a tradition — and few brewers can claim to have been around


for as long as 236 years. William Younger founded his first small


__


brewery that long ago, in 1749, in Leith. A family talent for brewing outstanding beers, plus a policy o f supplying the highest possible quality at the lowest possible


price, ensured increasing demand and steady expansion. Wm. Younger’s Ales


travelled well and were appreciated both at home and abroad. By the early 1900’s, 80,000 barrels a year were


In 1960 came


the merger with the Newcastle Breweries. It adds up to a product range unequalled anywhere — and it is notable that each Company has retained identity and the local flavour o f its own ales and lagers throughout. Today, Wm. Younger’s Scotch


Bitter and Traditional Ales (symbolised by the cheery figure o f “Father William” ) are an institution that is appreciated nowhere more than in the North and West.

going for export alone. Between the world wars, the Company went


from strength to strength and in 1931 a memorable link was forged with the equally successful McEwan name.

Council’s Development Sub-committee was told that the association, which has 14 adults and 10 cadets, wished to dis­ pose of its present Church Brow premises because they were too large.


The Ribble Valley Among the objections,


lodged by four residents, were that there would be increased noise and traf­ fic, a loss of property value and worsening access problems at the rear of the buildings.


Sewer scheme still held up


THE chief officer of the NWWA has been invited to the next meeting of a Ribble Valley Council committee to' discuss im­ provements tp the sewer­ age system at Worston. In the meantime the


Public Works and Health Committee has recom­ mended no more planning permission being granted for property in the area. For some years the


council has been urging the water authority to im­ prove the system quickly and favours linking with the Clitheroe system, some provision for which has already been made. The water authority is


thought to want a sewage treatment plant at Wor­ ston which the committee fears would mean further


delay. Hons degree

out for all the family to raise money for the Mayor’ s charity, the Royal National Institute for the Deaf. Some of the money — about £850 — will be put towards train ing hearing dogs. In the field behind


Bolton-by-Bowland village hall were various stalls and sideshow's, pony rides and Slaidburn Silver


Band. The tombolas — one for


adults and one for chil­ dren — raised £270. Prizes had been donated by parish councillors.


The Botcherby Chil­


dren’s Circus, from Car­ lisle, proved popular, and 40 visiting youngsters were made up as clowns and were able to join in the circus parade round the' field. The village hall was full


all day for ploughman’s lunches and afternoon


teas. It w'as also packed to capacity when the Gladys Sutcliffe Stage School dancers gave a display. Among the various


stalls and sideshows — which had to be relocated as the outer part of the field was waterlogged — I was a demonstration of | spinning. Said Coun. Mrs Lil-


burn, who w’as suitably attired for the slightly wet field conditions in smart red Wellington boots and a “ Pendle witches” sweater: “All in all it was a very good result, considering the recent weather.”


Dwelling refused


PLANS to convert a building adjacent to Ribble View, Dockber Lane, Laneside, Sawley, to a private dwelling have been refused. The Ribble Valley


Council’s Development Sub-committee was told in a written' report from Planning and Technical Officer Mr Philip Bailey that of eight local resi­ dents notified, five letters had been received object­ ing to the plan on access and parking grounds. It was considered that


in the interests of road safety and good highway planning, the development should be refused.
