J T h e w e e k e n d w a s I organised by Mr Lister in | conju n ct ion with sp o r t centre managers and club leaders and the idea was to encourage more people I o f all a g e s to ta k e up


sport. “'Phis is the second year


we have held the weekend and it has been a tremen­ dous su c c e s s ,” said Mr L is te r . “Many residents have either taken part in or w a tch ed a c t iv i t i e s which are completely new

A READ artist’s message for British business is that if we. are to compete in open world markets and, indeed, survive in our own mar- ket, we need to project ourselves with colour, style and vibrance to heighten our customers perception of what we can do and how we can


excel at it. Miss R u th C a lad in c ,


who was born in Black­ burn, will admit to passing through most of her edu­ cation in a blissful state of a b s t r a c t io n u n t i l h e r experiments with colours produced a dawning reali­ sation of the potential for a new kind of art based on the synergy created by seemingly unrelated and c o n t r a s t in g co lou rs in combination. After graduating with


an honours degree in art and design, her tire le s s p u r su i t o f com m e rc ia l a r t is t ic o r ig in a l i ty has taken her to the major art centres of Europe and the United S t a te s and her work has been exhibited recently in London, Liver­ pool and Italy. Her company, S ta n s


field Marketing, is based in Read and Har rogate and h e r c l ie n t s a re as d iv e rse as en g in e e r in g companies and chartered


surveyors. Additionally, she pro­


duces her own unique and original range of designs, which a re av a i lab le as greeting cards, each card being entirely individual. C a rd s a re a v a i la b le

showers and slippery rock, a party of climbers scaled Grooved Arete, a S10 ft. route on the east face of


Try fan. Other groups scrambled


from Heather Terrace to the summit of Tryfan, via North Gully, and contin­ ued to th e top o f th e Glyder Fach via Bristly Ridge. The next outdoor meet


will be a caving trip to Old Ing Cidf Holes on Sunday.
