Canada’s chocolate gift...pour play...oyster poaching

* * * * * * SOME 150 children were got safely out of Brockenhurst old County School on Monday morning when a fire broke out between the old library and the girls’ cloakroom. The fire, apparently caused by a stove becoming overheat- ed, set light to a wooden par- tition between the library and the cloakroom. Fortunately it was discov- ered in good time by Mr W. Wa- terman, the school caretaker, who gave the alarm, and with the help of Mr A. Dance and N. Cousens (employees of a firm of builders) who were attend- ing to frozen pipes, started to put the fire out, and indeed had quelled the outbreak be- fore the arrival of the Brigade. 50 YEARS AGO ONLY 50 of the 2,000 Crown Post Offices in the country re - mained open on Wednesday, the first day of the nation - al postal strike, but the New Milton office was amongst the few which opened for business between 9am and 4pm with a staff of five counter clerks and two postmen. Plans are that the Post Office will continue its counter work so long as some staff turn up, and if this proves impossible then volunteers will open up on Fridays and Tuesdays between 11 am and 3pm throughout the strike to give out pensions, family allowances and to cash Giro cheques. Christchurch and Lyming- ton post offices were closed on both days but the same arrangements for collecting pensions etc apply to these ar- eas. * * * * * * ALL fire stations within the Hampshire Fire Service are to be equipped with breathing

75 YEARS AGO A FREE gift of chocolate milk powder from the people of Canada is to be made through- out our Borough through the Women’s Voluntary Service to all children and adolescents up to 18 years of age on the basis of a pint measure equivalent to approximately 1lb per head. One important point that should be noted is that the WVS cannot supply containers and the powder, therefore, can only be supplied to those who bring a tin or box which will hold a pint of powder. Distribution will be made at the various schools to children of school age, who will be ad- vised by the head teachers of the date. * * * * * * NEW Forest Agricultural Society is to revive its popu- lar one-day show this year, on Wednesday 31st July, and a sub-committee is going to view possible sites at Lyndhurst and at New Park, Brockenhurst. Capt. the Hon. Edward Pley- dell-Bouverie and the Hon. Mrs Pleydell-Bouverie, who were joint presidents-elect when the war interrupted the society’s activities, are being invited to accept office for the 1946 show. There were one or two dis- sentient views on staging the event this year when the mat- ter was discussed at Brocken- hurst on 16th January. Mr R. G. Woolley, who was chairman of the grounds committee for several years before the war, and who mentioned that he was already receiving enquiries from traders anxious to have spaces when the show was put on again, said he doubted whether such an event would be a success this year, with the difficulties that were likely to be entailed in regard to trans- port, labour and materials.

responsible for the behaviour of occupants and visitors to their homes, even when they are only in the vicinity, under conditions being drawn up by the authority to make more ef- fective use of injunctions. And the Council is also to consider a specific condition relating to the eviction of tenants who are dealing in drugs. The moves follow a success- ful case brought by the Council to evict a tenant and occupier of a NewMilton house. But, the Housing Committee heard this week, the case had been expen- sive in time and court costs. Injunctions could be quick and effective, and officers were keen to make greater use of them, though cases would still have to be proved in court. Though in the main the wording of current conditions is being changed, a new con- dition will state: “You must be responsible for the behaviour of every person (including chil- dren) living in or visiting your home.” * * * * * * THE Solent’s shellfish in - dustry is being jeopardised by the illegal activities of oyster poachers off Pennington and by environmental health of- ficers’ inability to enforce the restrictions, Coun. Alan Rice declared at last week’s New Forest Environmental Service Committee. Coun. Rice, a member of the Southern Sea Fisheries Committee, warned that the fishing industry needed mon - itoring because of the scale of poaching in the area between Hurst Castle and Cowes. Shellfish are not supposed to be harvested from that area owing to the amount of pol- lution from the Pennington sewer outfall and the risk to public.

25 YEARS AGO: HYTHE and Marchwood branch of the RNLI raises around £8,000 a year for the Institution’s funds, and one of the principal sources of revenue is the annual Hythe raft race. Fourteen rafts took part in the latest race, providing a great deal of fun, and they have realised around £900 from sponsorship. The Hythe Herald trophy has now been presented by Jan Longland to the raft team contributing the largest sum, cap- tained by Mike Smith, who runs the RMS Car Repair business at Calshot. The trophy was presented in the Bridge Tavern pub at Holbury.

ing themselves transfixed. En - thusiasts standing along the touchlines began to wonder whether they were heroes – or just plain stupid! Thirteen Bournemouth League matches became so farcical that the ref- erees abandoned the proceed- ings. Particularly disappointed were the New Milton officials, who were anticipating a sizea- ble crowd to witness the debut of ex “Saint” Harry Penk, but alas the entire gate fitted quite comfortably into the little pa- vilion situated next to the con- veniences – a far cry from his days at the Dell in 1964! 25 YEARS AGO TENANTS of New Forest District Council are to be made

The previous ruling that such apparatus be allo- cated only to stations with two pumps has not applied recently, and various stations have been quipped as the au- thorities could afford. Now it has become possible to equip every station, it will just be a matter of time until delivery is possible. * * * * * * SATURDAY afternoon’s sudden and prolonged down- pour made something of a mockery of local footballing conditions as players slith- ered and squelched their way through ankle-deep mud, with goalkeepers unwittingly find -
