Holiday closure of cinema


to be reviewed


THE decision to close Clitheroe’s Civic Hall cinema for two weeks at Christinas is to be reviewed by the Ribble Valley Council next


r year. The decision came at a Taxi rank


site sought A SUITABLE taxi rank site has still to be found in Whalley, councillors heard this week. Ribble Valley Council's


Planning and Technical Officer, Mr Philip Bailey, said that Lancashire County Council and the police objected to the rank being situated in King Street. They were now suggest­


ing that it should be posi­ tioned on the Whalley Arms car park, subject to a p p r o v a 1 from t h e brewery. Mr Bailey told the


Policy and Resources Committee that the mat­ ter would have to be dis­ cussed in more detail


The proposed taxi rank


in King Lane, Clitheroe, has been approved by the county council and the police.


meeting of the Policy and Resources Committee when Coun. Geoffrey Ainsworth (Cla.vton-le- Dale) hit out at the coun­ cil’s closure policy. Councillors 'decided that


nothing could now be done to reverse the deci­ sion this year, but the matter would be discussed next year well in advance of the" festive season. Coun. Ainsworth said


he felt the council had an obligation to the public to keep the cinema open during holidays and should not close it for the convenience of staff vaca­ tions. Coun. Mrs Myra Clegg


(Wiswell), chairman of the Recreation and Leisure Committee, said past ex­ perience had shown that people were disinclined to visit the cinema at Christ­ mas, preferring to watch television in their own homes or attend family gatherings. The Mayor, Coun. John


Walmsley (Mellor) said it had been proved that Christmas opening was not a viable proposition — tile takings would not pay for the electricity. Hut Coun. E r ic

The concert takes place


in the Grammar School, Chatburn Road on Wed-1 nesilav at 7-30 p.m.


Play worth seeing more than once!


WADDING TON Drama duction o f-K e y for Two"


This must be one of the


funniest plays ever writ- tun and the actors never missed an opportunity of letting us know. The dialogue is full of


innuendo, the action full of double-take and the story­ line frothy and farcical. The plot — if there is one — is soon lost in the more and more impossibly ridic­ ulous situations. Sue Clement, making


her first appearance at Waddington, had the lead role as Harriet and carried off a very large part with skill and i am sure she will be an asset to the group. David Clews and Hoy


Oldroyd played Cordon and Alec respectively, the two lovers who could not have been more unalike. The contrast between

these two characters as portrayed could not have been greater. Gordon, the suave man of the world, with a continual pained expression, and Alec, the plain-sneaking trawlennan from Grimsby, who had made his pile and kept his earthiness, were a delight to watch as they extracted every ounce of humour from their pails. Carmel Donald turned


in a very neat performance as Anne and proved her­ self an accomplished comedienne. Smaller roles were


taken by Harry Phillips, who should play alcoholics more often, he does them so well, and Pat Har­ greaves. a positive gem as the Grimsby wife who had tjyed to go up in the work!


but forgot herself every | now ami then. The whole presentation I


was slick, well-timed and thoroughly entertaining, a credit to Barbara Brice who not only directed it hut very able stepped into the role of the horrible harridan Magda at the last moment, due to the illness of one (if the cast. To do this kind of|


comedy with the very limited facilities of Wad- dington’s stage is no mean achievement. The oxeeu-1 lion of tiie set, which was a composite one o f | bedroom and lounge, was again in the talented hand- s of Harrio Wood. I saw the play twice.


Those who did not see it once missed a thoroughly good night.

ways, but vision of the motor cyclist was blocked by a lamp-post.


BE SHOWROOM SURE


PU PILS and parents went back to St Augus­ tine's RC School, Billing- ton, on Sunday — all in a good cause. The reason was the


school’s Christmas Fair, at which £1,180 was raised towards funds. After the opening by


the chairman of the gov­ ernors, Fr Laughlin, around 1,000 people thronged the wide variety of stalls organised by the Parent-Teacher Associa­ tion and staff. Our picture shows some

Speeding fine


A LANGMO motorist was fined £00 by Clitheroe magistrates for exceeding the -10 m.p.h. limit on Whalley Road, Billington. Shaun Lewis CIO), of


Rogersfield, had been stopped by police after travelling at 70 m.p.h.


Cautious approach


A MAJOR debate on the latest developments con­ cerning the joint run­ down and future manage­ ment of Broekhall and Calderstones Hospitals, is expected at Tuesday’s meeting of the Ribble Valley Council.


A document — not yet


av a ilab le for public scrutiny — from the North Western Regional Health Authority was dis­ tributed to members of the council's Policy and Resources Committee on Monday.


They decided that the


discussion of such an im­ portant document should wait until a meeting of the full council and that a "cautious approach" was necessary.

Stolen property in bedroom


POLICE searcing fori motor cycle parts stolen from a "garage in Read found them hidden in a bedroom, Clitheroe magis-1 trates were told.


Mark Robert Shaw (24), |


of Berkeley Crescent, Padiham, admitted handl- I ing stolen goods and was fined £175.


Prosecutor Mr Martin I


Crabtree offered no evi­ dence on a charge of burglary at the garage unit at Friendship Mill, Read, and this charge was | dismissed.


Mr Crabtree said that


property valued at more than £300 was taken from the garage and police found two motor cycle forks behind a water cy­ linder in the bedroom at Shaw's home. A flywheel puller was found in the pantry.


Shaw said he had put


them there to stop rust after acquiring them from a dismantle!- near Baeup, but no record of this transaction could be | found.


Mr David Hirst, de- I


fending, said his client ac­ cepted he should have taken more trouble to find | the tme owner.


He was now working as


a builder under the enter-1 prise allowance scheme.
