Musical evening to remember from the


Organ Society


A MUSICAL evening to remember was offered by Clitheroe Parish Church Organ Society on


Saturday. Presenting its 200th


concert, fittingly attained during 800 year, the Gala Night a t the Parish Church featured eight dis­ tinguished organists. Unfortunately Black­


burn Cathedral organist David Cooper was unable to attend, due to illness, but his place in a duet was taken by Charles Myers. The programme, which


contained letters of con­ gratu lation from the Royal College of Organ­ ists in London, the Rev. Anthony Roberts and the Rev. Canon J . C. Hudson, was introduced by Mr Roberts. Among the audi­ ence were the Mayor and Mayoress of the Ribble Valley, Coun. and Mrs John Walmsley. The society’s honorary

musical adviser and or­ ganiser, Charles Myers, opened the programme with an amusing Occasion­ al Overture, before play­ ing a short piece by 18th- century organist William


Hine. This was followed by


the Wesley duet, played by Jack Longstaff, organ­ ist of St James's, Black­ burn, and Charles Myers who stood in at a few hours’ notice. A further duet was


plaved by Charles Myers and Nigel Gaze, organist at St Andrew's, Longton, and some rarely heard music for two organs by Roger Fisher, organist of


Chester Cathedral, and his stepson Philip Rush-


forth. Charles Myers and


Nigel Gaze played another piece on two organs, made possible by the ad­ dition of a small extra pipe organ. Nigel Gaze also played


a solo by Louis Vierne and accompanied his young son Thomas, treble, in performances of Handel’s popular song “Where'er You Walk" and Sullivan's “Lost Chord”, both taxing solos which were well managed.


A r ch i te c t Gordon Thorne played two solos by the French composer Gabriel Pierne and Judith Rawlinson,

church specially for Satur­ day's recital was a two manual Mustel Reed Organ built'in 1S95, which was loaned and played by Linda Carrington, organ­ ist of St Paul’s, Warton, and former assistant or­ ganist at Clitheroe. She coaxed the instrument through excellent per­ formances of a Scherzo by Lemare and Guilmant’s


"Grand Choeur”. Finally, six organists


took part in an entertain­ ing performance of the Toccata bv Dubois.

FRIENDS and colleagues gathered at the Kirk- moor Rond council depot in Clitheroo an Friday to say farewell to workmate Colin Lawson, a man


who "had a smile for everybody." Colin, who lives in Whalley Road, had worked


with the Kibble Valley Council’s technical ser­ vices department since 1971, and before had a similar job with the former Clitheroe Borough


Council. lie was a labourer in the department and his h . . _


years' council sendee made him the longest serv­ ing employee in technical sendees, a feat which resulted in the Mayor of Kibble Valley. Conn. John Walmsley, coming to pay him » specinl


tribute. llv coincidence, Colin retired on his birthday.


He now plans to spend more time enjoying racing and walking. Colleagues presented hint with a pair of binoculars and a shooting stick. Mr Francis Howarth, superintendent of general


works, said: "Colin turned his hand to everything from snow clearing to sewer work. He has been a loyal sen-ant of the council and was always ready


no mutter what the tusk. "lie was cheerful and had a smile for every- Col ill is pictured looking to his future with the


Mavor and Mayoress, Borough Planning nnd Technical Officer Mr Philip Bailey and collea­


gues.

ON Thursday I went to see "Chase $Ie Comrade" performed by Calder- stones Revue and Drama­ tic Society in the Hospital Theatre. I was so pleased with the first few mi­ nutes. Thank goodness there are still societies


I that open their shows with the Na t ion a l Anthem.


The play is about a


Russian ballet dancer who wishes to defect to the West and happens to choose the home of a Royal Navy Commander at which to stay.


Brian Fagan had just


the right touch of pompos­ ity and contrasted well with the frantic character of Brian Haworth. The contrast of the parts played hv Anne Riley and Lynne Cheshire was well done and highlighted by the contrast of their cos­ tumes.


The timing and delivery


of David Lloyd's lines were superb and Geoff Baron was the archetypal


civil servant. Jeff Makin- son’s Russian sounded almost authentic and his b a l le t ic leap s were amazing.


David I’earson, Jean


Ratcliffe and Matthew Cox made the most of their lines and produced very pleasing cameos. The different levels on the stage were used very


effectively. As in most farces, entrances on cue are an absolute necessity and not one was late helping to maintain the


cracking pace. The whole production


bv Gabrielle Cox, was a fine example of farce at its best. Thank you. everyone, for a rib-tickl­ ing evening.


‘No loading’ order for junction


A 20-YARD length of Parson Lane, Clitheroe, at its junction with Sta­ tion Road, is to become subject to a "no loading" restriction in the very near future. The news has been wel­


comed by the Ribble Valley Council and local residents, who were wor­ ried that the increased tra f f ic volume along Parson Lane — resulting from tile Esluon Terrace closure for sewer renewal


— would lead to a serious accident at the junction. The order being drafted the County Council


hv will


....... in particular, affect lorries wishing to pick up or deposit goods at llar- g r e a v e s ’


11 a 1 i a n


\V a r e h o u s e m c n, w h o supply food and other items to the catering in


dustrv. It moans that lorries


will have to park further along Parson Lane, to wards Hawdlamls Bridge.

Sabden, was the setting for the wedding of Mr Ian Joseph Wood and Miss Suzan Elizabeth Rams-

Her waist- length veil was held in place by a headdress of pearls and white roses and she canned a bouquet of white roses. Chief bridesmaid was


Nicky Bloy and brides­ maids were Donna Rams- bottom. the bride's sister- in -law , and Lemone MeVarish and Gillian


Duff. Pageboy was Jamie


Ramsbottom. the bride's nephew. The bridesmaids wore


calf-length dresses of lemon and had combs of veliow roses in their hair. They carried matching bouquets. B e s t man was Mr

best use. At the moment, the museum is open each af­ ternoon from 2 p.m. to -l- 80 p.m. Easter to October and from 11 a.m. to '1-30 p.m. on Bank Holidays and Bank Holiday

tal basis, it should open from 1-30 p.m. to 5 p.m. Easter to May and also in October and from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. from June to September. The matter will be


finalised when revenue es­ timates are discussed early next year. Members also agreed to
