Lakes stay is a Top award for years of service hit for climbers =


_______ by George Barnes


THE (Jeorge Starkey climbing hut in Patterdale was the venue for Ciitheroe Mountaineering Club’s weekend meet in the east­ ern Lakes. On a fine day at last after a


week of heavy rain, members set out for Grizedale, one group heading for Eagle Crag and an­ other bound for Pinnacle Ridge on St Sunday Crag. The first group climbed via


scree to a ruined mine building, then scrambled via the straight- cut gash of an old mineral vein to gain the rocky, east ridge of Nethermost Pike where a steep, rough walk led to the summit. Looking north-east, ant-like fig­ ures could be seen crossing the pinnacles of Striding Edge, but no sign of the snow and ice which had led to two recent fa­ talities. The party continued north


along the rim of Nethermost Cove to reach shelter on Helvel- lyn from the freezing cold wind. There were excellent views and some evidence of recent wintry weather, such as slowly collaps­ ing cornices on the Red Tarn face of HelveUyn. With numbed fingers, members resumed their climb to the trig, point on the summit, then descended around the edge of Brown Cove to Helvellyn Lower Man, continu­ ing north over the peaks of


White Side and Raise to Sty- barrow Dodd. Here the group headed east


to the rounded slopes of Green Side for a final climb to the top of Sheffield Pike and a descent to Glen Ridding. On Saturday evening mem­


bers enjoyed a communal meal, organised and prepared by Veronica and Nick Millward, ivith contributions of soup and desserts by other members of the club. Sunday’s forecasts threatened


a return to rain, so a majority of members decided that it would be a good idea to venture underground. Relying on the expertise of a former coal-miner and experienced mine explorer in the club’s ranks, a lead mine in the Greenside area provided an entertaining and informative trip, wading along a mile long passage hewn from solid rock. The next indoor meeting


takes place on February 21st at 8 p.m. in Ciitheroe Cricket Club and will feature presentations on Himalayan trekking by Jane Pyzniuk and Dave Grosvenor, and Denise and Steve Andrews. Midweek visits to local


climbing walls continue to be popular. Informal sessions are available from Bern Hard­ man, telephone 01254 824856.


A TOP award has been presented to Rotarian Barrie Lancaster. The Paul Harris Fellowship - named


after the founder of Rotary - is awarded by fellow club members in recognition of service within the movement. Together with his ’60s pop group


"The Backbeats”, Mr Lancaster has raised almost £20,000 for Life Educa­ tion, the teaching caravans that travel round Lancashire junior schools, show­ ing pupils how to lead a happy, healthi­ er life by eating and exercising properly. This achievement, together with 18


years’ service within the club was the reason Mr Lancaster was granted the award. He received it during a meeting at­


tended by Mr Alan dagger, the national president of the Rotary movement. During a visit to East Lancashire, Mr


dagger was the speaker at a lunch time meeting of the Rotary Club of Ciitheroe, who also hosted Rotarians from Accrington, Church and Os- waldtwisle. Great Harwood and Rish- ton and three Blackburn clubs. With typical Yorkshire humour Mr


dagger talked about Rotary’s place in the community and how important it was for the future of the organisation.


ELECTRICAL tools have been stolen from premises in the Ribble Val­ ley.

caster and “The Backbeats’’ will once again be organising the popular Rotary Life Education ’60s night at the Catholic Club in Lowergate, Ciitheroe. For further details and tickets ask any Rotarian or contact Mr Lancaster on

AN eagerly-anticipated comedy sequel will be on stage in Ciitheroe next week. Players from Trinity Drama


Group will present Peter Gordon’s “Secondary Cause of Death” at Trinity Methodist Church in Par­ son Lane from February 7th to 9th. The play is a sequel to Mr Gor­


don’s hit comedy thriller “Mur­ dered to Death”. For the new play, the drama has


moved to 1939 and the storm clouds are gathering over Europe. After inheriting Bagshot House,


Colonel Charles Craddock has con­ verted the property into a hotel. Before long Inspector Pratt


arrives again bearing grim news for the colonel. And that is just the beginning - who is the strange Pol­ ish count? Is Henrietta really an army captain? Where does the flamboyant thespian Cardew Longfellow fit into the picture?


When Joan Maple’s sister


arrives to stage a murder mystery evening, it is not long before the inspector’s visit turns into a chaot­ ic a nightmare as the bodies begin to pile up. ® Tickets for the performance,


which starts at 7-30 p.m., cost £5 including refreshments. Admission is by programme which are avail­ able from either Michael Britcliffe on 01200 424328 or Helen Coles on 01200 425186. (s)

Platform for a fashion first


A FASHION first is being showcased at Clitheroe’s Platform Gallery. Shoes, slippers and


bags designed and made by students from St Mary’s College, Black­ burn, are being exhibited at thegallery from this weekend. A preview session will


take place between noon and 1 p.m. on Saturday. This new venture for St


Mary’s College, titled “New Beginnings” reflects work developed by AS and A-Level tex­ tile and fashion students. Fifteen students have


contributed to the exhibi­ tion and their work - inspired by a previous Platform Gallery display titled “Garment” - is largely craft based and highly experimental and will include dressed man­ nequins, shoes and slip­ pers, bags, umbrellas and lampshades. O The exhibition can


be viewed daily from 10 a.m. and 4-30 p.m. until Thursday, February 14th.
