‘The traditional red hunting cap

‘Dr. Brian J. A, Gox of New
‘Westminster, research director of
the B.C. Optometric Association,
said that fluorescent blaze orange

soclation, and the American Optical
‘Co, Military optometrists also par-
tielpated.

“It was shown that both fluor-
escent blaze orange and fluorescent
neon red gave consistent high vis-
Sbility ratings, even for color defec-
tive people,” said Dr. Cox. “On the
other hand, ordinary shades of red
and yellow were given very poor
ratings.”

The optometrist specifically
warned against wearing yellow in
white tail deer country.

“Yellow is downright danger-
ous,” he sald.

However, while the BC, Opto-
metric Association recommended

fluorescent blaze orange or fluor-| |

escent neon red as the safest colors
for hunters clothing, Dr. Cox cau-
tioned that no color is entirely safe,
and that some hunters, “particular-
ly young, rash and inexperienced
ones, will shoot at anything that
moves — no matter what color js
being used.”

‘Dr. Cox pointed out that his

sprofession, in co-operation with the

Bo, Federation of Fish & Game
Clubs, is conducting vision screen-
ings of federation memibers, and
that the battery inchides a test for

More B.C. oil for B.C.....
coming up

Members of the crew of an lnperial rig drilling for oil in British Columbta,

Bringing you oil products at ‘bargain prices is a big job. Right now, for example, imperial is
drilling 30 miles of hole at B.C.’s Boundary Lake oil field. Boundary Lake oil will travel 745
miles to Imperial’s refinery near Vancouver, where it will be turned into products. And those
products reach you at bargain prices. Take Esso gasoline, for example. On the average, it costs
motorists: throughout B.C. 6y5 cents:per pound. Compared with other commodities in
everyday use, you won’t find a better bargain. Milk, for example, sells on the average for
9,% cents a pound; soft drinks for 12,%, cents a pound; even distilled’ water costs more
than gasoline. And of the 675 cents paid per pound for’ Esso gasoline, two cents is for
federal and provincial taxes that bring you such things as social. seryices'and new highways.
To bring you this bargain, Imperial has invested more than $80,000,000 in B.C. in the Past ten
years alone. Yet today, on the average, Imperial gets less for the Esso gasoline it sells than
it did ten years ago...and Esso gasoline today is much more powerful than ten years ago.
