magnificent surroundings of S to n y h u rs t College on Saturday night. Stonyhurst Golf Club’s deci­

Motoring fans are planning grand reunion


A CALL is going out to past and present mem­ bers of Clitheroe and District Motoring Club to attend a grand reunion on November 14th at the Moorcock Inn, Waddington.


The reunion is to cele­


b r a te 30 y e a r s of th e motoring club, which was first formed in February, 1902, when 42 enthusiasts of both sexes attended the first meeting at the Star- kie Arms Hotel. Twelve months later the club had achieved a total of 100 full members. The original aim of the


club was to promote motor competitions and arrange tours, lectures, discus­ sions and social events. Sales director of Prim­


rose Garage Mr Trevor Roberts was elected chair­ man in the first year and served in that post for the next 21 years. He is now vice-president and will be pleased to hear from past or present members who would like to attend the function. Anyone who is interested can contact him (Clitheroe 23SS3).

national television. Tile Save the Children Fund is one of seven chari­


ties across the country running the appeal. The cheque from the parish church, she said, was a wonderful surprise. The local fund has also been presented with a


ja r after lunch each day for a year, raising £25S, which Save the Children also plans to earmark for Somalia. In addition, Year 11 teacher Mr Barker has started
