THE ceasefire in the Gulf has dispelled uncertainty about an open air concert in Clitheroe by the band of the Queen’s Lancashire Regiment. I t was feared that the
musicians would not be able to keep th e ir June 16th date at the bandstand
in the Castle grounds because of the war. This was reported to
Clitheroe Town Council’s annual parish meeting, when members approved a £500 donation from the Samuel Green Music Bequest towards the cost of the concert. Members heard that the
musicians were one of only tw o re g im e n ta l bands based in Britain during the Gulf War and would pro bably have been needed elsewhere i f hostilities had not ended. They agreed that the
concert would be “ a mar vellous o p p o r tu n ity to bring back open air music to Clitheroe.’’ The late Samuel Green,

THERE were 01 cattle ami 410 sheep, including 11S ewes and rams, forward at Clitheroe Auc tion Mart on Monday. Cattle trade was firm, but not
flashy. Bulls and steers were up on average, but top prices curbed to 123p for bulls and 120p for steers. H e i f e r s m a d e t o 1 2 0 p
(average 102p), which was down slightly from the previous week. Hoggs found a very good
trade, with the best returns of the year to date. An overall average at ITO.Tp
was 24p up on the week, with a top figure of 200p, something not seen for some time. The trend was mainly in* the
15 to 17 kg range. 1*8-19 kg doing well, but heavy lambs saw only marginal increases. A better than average share
of the right lambs gave a op advantage fo r Clitheroe on national Monday figures. Lig h t bulls' made to 123p

Ewes made to £39 (£22.94), ungraded lambs to £43.50

variable. Continental bulls made to
