Naturally Speaking
By Steve Cooke
I've just received news release from the
Ministry of Natural Resources warning
hunters not to eat the liver and kidneys from
moose. The release, reproduced elsewhere
in" the paper, deals with moose in the
Algonquin area, but I would caution anyone
from eating these organs from any moose in.
the Province.
So what else is new? A few months ago, I
dealt with the same warning in this column.
I was alerted to the fact through some
research being done in Sweden, which
related high cadmium levels in moose to
acid rain. When I tried to find out more
information about Ontario moose, no one
seemed to know anything at all, or else they
just weren't saying anything. Now,
however, the cat's out of the bag. As I said
before, not only does it affect people eating
those meats, but how will it affect the moose
themselves. And, what about ducks as well
as other aquatic feeders? Read it and make
your own decisions. + +
L.L. Bean, probably the biggest mail
order outdoor store in the U.S, has just come
out with a fall Hunting Catalogue that is just
packed full of goodies for hunters and
outdoor people in general.
I can't think of a better place to do your
Christmas shopping, especially if you have a
hunter in the family. The range of products
is extensive, and there are practical items
which will fit any budget.
Ordering is painless as well. By using
their 24 Hour Telephone Service, you can
use a charge card (MasterCard, Visa or
American Express) and not have to worry
about exchange. The orders, will be sent out
parcel post, and will clear customs at
Goderiph A11 you will have to d,o is nay the
duty to claim your treasure.
Duty rates vary for different items, so if
you figure 35 percent for exchange and 25
percent for duty, you won't be far off the
mark, Even with all that, prices are very
comparable to the same type of stores found
in Canada.
There's some great items in this catalogue
which I'venever seen before. One in
particular is their "North Wind Decoys".
These decoys are incredibly lifelike! The
body is made of DuPont Tyvek and inflates
in a four mile per hour breeze. Adjustable
heads swivel on stakes and the decoys
appear to be walking and feeding as they
waggle in the wind. The' best feature is that
they only weigh six ounces each.
I'm ordering some to give them a try, but
I'm positive they'll work. If there is the
slightest wind, they should be dynamite in a
stubble field, or set up on the shore of a
pond. They're available (depending on
what's in stock) in either Canada Goose or
magnum Mallard configurations.
Also included in the catalogue is a
complete range of clothing that ranges from
rough and ready field wear to comfortable
leisure time items. Apart from clothes,
there are items for dog owners, gun care
products, skeet and trap shooting gear,
camping and canoeing equipment and
'much, much more.
If you are interested, drop a line to L.L.
Bean, Inc.; Freeport; Maine; 04033-0001 and
ask for their Fall 1985 Hunting Specialties
Catalogue. It's interesting to browse
through, and you'll be in lots of time to get
things organized for Christmas. Make
someone extra happy, and give them a gift
they can enjoy and use in the outdoors.

This placed Clinton fourth overall.,

Football helmetF, are a definite must
By Hugh Westrup
Football players wearing the "suspen-
sion" style of protective helmet risk injuries
to the head, says a scientist from the
University of Waterloo. '
Tests by Dr."•°Patrick Bishop have shown
that one out of five "suspension" helmets
cannot in.eet standards set by the American
National Operating Committee on 'Stan-
dards for Athletic Equipment (NOCSAE )..
In a suspension football helmet, the
player's head is kept,' about an inch away

suspended, cloth yvebbing which fits snugly
over the top of the head. Another type of
helmet, the padded helmet, separates . the;
head from the plastic shell with a layer of
foam padding. Some helmets combine
suspension and padding.
Sporting goods manufacturers ceased
making suspension helmets in the mid-
1970s, but many are still in"use, especially in
high school football teams. Dr. Bishop
tested helmets that had been in use for an
average of eight years. His study shows that
suspension helmets do not stand up to
repeated use as well as the other two styles
of football helmet.
Dr. Bishop tested all three types of
helmet. The padded and padded -suspension
helmets met NOCSAE safety standards 98
per cent , of . the time. Suspension helmets
net NOCSAE standards only 81 per cent of
the time.
A failure to conform to NOCSAE
guidelines indicates that the helmet will not
prevent the wearer from suffering a concus-
sion (or worse) in the event of a blow to the
celeration of the headpiece when the helmet
"The problem with suspension helmets is
that the cloth webbing begins to stretch,
which reduces the protective distance
between the head and the plastic shell,"
says Dr. Bishop. (Padded helmets may also
become unsafe when the padding breaks
down or becomes reduced in thickness from
excessive use.)
Dr. Bishop suggests that coaches of teams
that cannot replace their suspension
helmets use only the newest helmets, or the
least -used ones. "Or they can • install pad-
ding and turn it into a padded -suspension
helmet," he adds. •
He advises against repairing helmets with
glue or paste, which can corrode and
weaken the helmet's plastic shell.
Dr. Bishop conducted his tests on a drop
rack. In this apparatus, the helmet is placed
on;,a headpiece,• which is dropped fro'M''a••
height of 1.5 metres onto a metal anvil: In=
struments attached to the headpiece
measure its rate of acceleration as it falls. A
