Another accolade for Stonyhurst as it is placed among top 500 schools

in the country. Although Stonyhurst has a


strong academic tradition, it is first and foremost a place for education in a strongly Roman Catholic atmosphere. It takes boys and girls from all over the world and also welcomes those of other denomina­ tions, without the proved high fly­ ing examination potential sought

Clubhouse approval expected


LONG-STANDING hopes for a new club­


house at Langho EC's ground are nearing fruition.The building would be


60ft. by 36ft. and include a licensed bar, function room and members' room.Planning permission is being sought at tonight's meeting of the Ribble Valley Borough Council Planning and D evelop-


ment Committee. If officials' recommenda­


tion for approval is fol­ lowed, work would sta rt after the end of the current


iseason. Well over a year of dis­


cussions have gone on between the club and the council - which owns the site off Dewhurst Road, part of the former Langho


colony. A report for tonight's


Advertisement Control Officer Mr D. G. Waterman says that the signs contain a simple, clear and easily assimilated message - motorists would have suffi­ cient time to read them without undue distraction. But their bold, bright

meeting says that the plans indicate that the bulk of the building will be used for social functions, although there will be two changing rooms, referees' rooms, showers, toilets, a kitchen and a cellar. The dominance of the


colouring of white on red and position above hedgerows makes no con cession to their sensitive locations in open country­ side. They would stand out as unduly prominent and strident features, and would be detrimental to the interests of amenity.


Helping you cope with grief


surprisingly supportive, wi with r servoirs of unsus­


face can prove to be all that initially is needed, as coping with the trauma of bereave­ ment demands extra strengths and resources. One of the dangers of bereavement is that those


left behind often put on an outward show of strength, although all the time their inner emotions are in tat­ ters and they find it increas­ ingly difficult to face the

Duty chemist


Boots the Chemist Ltd. 15/19 Castle Street: Sunday, noon to 1 p.m.


IT could have been a scene from TV's "Blue Peter" at the recent lantern-making work­ shop organised by Clitheroe Chamber of


Trade. Bits of paper, glue and


sticks covered the area set aside at Aunt Jemimah's, in Moor Lane, and even the old favourite, sticky-back plastic, probably put in an appearance as the eight rep­ resentatives from different schools and organisations put together their weird and wonderful creations. The workshop was led by


expert lantern makers from the arts activities organisa­ tion, "Action Factory", based in Blackburn. The evening was organ­


ised in the run-up to the Lantern Procession, which will take place at the late- night Christmas shopping event on December 8th, and meant that the repre­ sentatives could use the skills acquired to teach oth­


ers. Chamber of Trade's Mrs


Jean Jackson, who organ­ ised the workshop, said: "There was such a good turn-out and everyone who attended was really enthu­


%


siastic, once they got the hang of it. As a result, we are expecting the procession to be very well attended, with lots of unusual lanterns on display." Our picture shows

social aspect "could poten­ tially cause problems when activities go on late into the evening, generating traffic levels in excess of those nor­ mally associated with the core use," says the report. < I t suggests th a t some


form of restriction will be needed limiting the type of function which could be held, although the social club aspect is essential to the viability of the club itself. But the impact on nearby houses can be miti­ gated by restricting the function side of the club's


lease. Currently there is a well


established cabin-style pavilion plus a newer simi­ lar one on the site, but nei­ ther has planning permis­ sion.
