obviously rekindled many memories for the first night audience. Margaret Di lworth makes her debut with the


society as show producer tackling a difficult role with confidence. Male principal Brian


Haworth, well-known in the area, particularly with the Calderstones Revue, and Dramatic Society, appears for the first time with the Clitheroe society. His interpretation of Pi erre Fontaine, the French actor, is strength- e n e d by y e a r s o f experience, a clear voice and a convincing French a cc en t main ta in ed throughout. Full marks to Andrena


Backhouse in a difficult stage debut as French actress Suzanne Valdis. There were times when she almost tried too hard, but her lively and coquett­ ish portrayal should

LANCASHIRE County Counci l conservation officer Mr Geoff Morries gave an illustrated talk on his recent trip to China, when he spoke to mem­ bers of Clitheroe Natural­ ists Society. Mr Morries, who visited


the country with the Brit­ ish Naturalists Society, contrasted two nature r e se rv e s ; one in the North-East provinces close to the border of Rus- sia and Korea which covered a wide area of swamp and the other, natural high forest, moun­ tains and lakes. The organic farming

Planning in the


pipeline


A PLANNING application for additional bedroom accommoda­ tion, an extension to the bar and lounge and conversion of a barn to a conference and ban­ queting centre, with ear park­ ing, for Mytton Fold Farm, Biilington, has been lodged with the Ribble Valley Coun­ cil’s Planning Department (number 0078). Other plans include: Clitheroc: Direction signs on


land adjacent to Lincoln Way near its junction with Pimlico Link Road and on land near to Lincoln Way’s junction with Up Brooks (0086). Read: Internal and external

Anne Haworth — no rela­ tion to Brian — blossomed as Lucy, her fourth lead­ ing part with the Clitheroe society. She exudes confi­ dence and undoubtedly steals the show. For sheer acting ability

Drivers fall foul of new parking laws


NOTICES of £5 charges have been issued to 186 mo t o r i s t s who have flouted the new car park­ ing order in Clitheroe — since its introduction last December.


But Ribbl e Va l l ey


Council Chief Executive and Town Clerk, Mr Michael Jackson, says that the word is getting about regarding more careful policing of the car parks by an efficient warden, and the two hour in three l imi t was now be ing adhered to.


N o w t h e l o c a l


authority’s Planning and Transportation Committee


is awaiting the comments of the Clitheroe and Dis­ trict Chamber of Trade before discussions — on the possibility of introduc­ ing car parking charges - can take place. Meanwhile, Coun. John


Cowgill is asking whether the local authority could look into providing a hou­ seholder’s permit for car parking in areas such as Brennand Street and St Mary’s Street. There, residents could


not park their vehicles outside their own homes because people working in the town were taking up all the space available, he said.

A WHALLEY man’s attempts to break up a fight outside a nightclub landed him in Clitheroe Magistrates' Court accused of drunk and disorderly behaviour.


Austen Daniel Ellison


(22) , of Green Park, admitted the offence and was fined £50.


The court heard that


police officers twice told a group of youths to move on after they had congre­ gated outside Rio’s, Whal­ ley, in the early hours of the morning.


The youths had been


causing a disturbance and eventually a fight broke out, involving Ellison.


The defendant told the


court he had originally been trying to break up a fight, but became involved himself when a punch was swung at him.
