Nagging questions
The deer hunt is well past, but there were
some nagging questions which came up dur-
ing it and I now have the full answers.
The questions concerned the draw, since it
seemed as if a lot of local people missed out
this year. The main concern was that people
from out of the area could apply to hunt in
several of the controlled hunts, and then
pick the one that suited them best. There
didn't seem to be any way to prevent this
happening, so 1 spoke to Ken Malhiot from
the Wingham Ministry of Natural Resources
about it.
According to Ken, all the names for the
controlled hunts are fed into the computer in
Toronto, and any duplicates are
automatically rejected. "If we did it by
hand," Ken said, "we'd never catch it, but
the computer kicks thein out automatically.
They go into the rejected list along with
those forms which are filled out improperly
and the people who didn't fill out the man-
datory reports. The people involved are not
notified and would simply assume that they.
•had not been drawn."
So, for those of you who were wondering,
there's the answer.
Camping is cheaper
An interesting fact about vacation camp-
ing came to light recently, and 1 felt you
might like to hear about it as well. The study
was done in the U.S ., so a little conversion
in dollars and gallons, etc. • could be
necessary. The main point of the study is
pretty universal however.
So, you're thinking about using a camping
trailer for that ,next .family vacation, but
first, you'want honest nswers to a couple of
-hard questions:
Can I tow a well-equipped camper with a
small car?
How much money can 1 save'?
Until recently, there was no objective
study to provide answers to those queries.
Naturally Speaking
By Steve Cooke
Now, the United States Auto Club (USAC)
has completed a test that showed a family of
four can save almost $80. a day by travelling
with a camping trailer instead of making
the same trip with meals in fast food
restaurants and lodging in inexpensive
motels. The independent USAC organization
was commissioned by Starcraft, a company
that has been making fold down campers for
more than 20 years.
USAC took a new, 17 -foot fold down Star -
craft camper and hitched it to a 1982 Pontiac
J-2000 4 -door with a four cylinder engine.
The car had no air shocks or any other
specialtowing equipment.
The object was to find out three things:
First, what is the effect of towing on gas
mileage? Second, what are the practical
economies of fold down camping versus
motels and restaurants'? And finally, can a
small, standard four cylinder car handle a
luxurious, five -sleeper camper- like the 17 -
foot Starcraft?
USAC employee, John Banks, took his
wife and two teenage sons on identical six-
day trips. Each trip consisted of 1,479 miles
through the deserts and mountains of
"California, Nevada and Arizona. The course
took them an average of 247 miles per day
from 1. os Angeles, to I,as Vegas, then to the
Grand Canyon, up to Zion National Park,.
through Death Valley and finally back to
Los Angeles.
On the first trip, the Banks stayed in
family -type motels and ate in fast 'food
restaurants. During the second tip,., they
towed the Starcraft camper, camped in it
and ate all of their meals m it. Their grocery
list didn't cut corners, and the Banks dined
on such things as charcoal broiled steaks.
Banks kept close tabs on the gas mileage
over the 1,479 -mile course and found that the
car with the camper and gear used an
average of 1.03 more gallons of gas for every
100 miles travelled. With a gas price of $1.25
per gallon, that would have cost an extra
$18.49 for the entire trip - small change
compared to the money saved by camping.
By, cooking their own meals and forgoing
rnotels, the Banks saved $462.68 - or $77.11
per day.
USAC, the organization that is perhaps
best known for the respected Mobil gas
economy run, certified the carefully
documented results.
The USAC test answered Starcraft's final
questions, as Banks recorded no problems
with the smaller car pulling the 897 -pound
trailer. .
"On the first leg of the trip, I found out
what a breeze this Starcraft is to tow,"
Banks said. He admitted that he'd had some
doubts at first.
• "I'm used to 'towing with a much larger
car and I wasn't sure if this Pontiac could
handle the camper," Banks said. "But both
performed great."
The Banks family also discoveredaddi
tional benefits. "Back home in California
our busy schedules don't have much roon
for family togetherness," said Mrs. Bank:,
after the second trip. "Camping is a great
way to share as a family - see this great
country of ours."
Thousands experience skiing injuries
You hear the crackle of the soft snow; you
feel the crispness of the' wind; you tingle
with the warmth of the sun;• you are ex-
hilarated with the speed and movement. .
Thousands of Canadians will enjoy skiing
this year, and may experience one of the
many injuries that are so inherent in this
sport.
It's .not sports that are dangerous '--- it's
'the people who participate in them.
According to skiing authorities, about 50
per cent of ,the injuries are equipment -
related, while the other 50 per cent are due
to poor physical conditioning and
negligence.
Physical conditioning is important
because the energy absorption ability of the
bone is .minimal. The skier's primary
defence against injury is muscular condi-
tioning:
Doctors of chiropractic emphasize a
direct relationship between lack of condi-
tioning and structural injury.
Skiing not only requires specialized atten-
tion to knee and leg exercises, but also a
general good tone of the body. It is the type
of sport that requires endurance and struc-
tural maneuverability.
Equipment should be of high quality con-
struction, proper fitting, and well maintain-
ed. For example, because some parents con-
sider ski -bindings for their children in the
category of -"toys," children often have in-
terior equipment. The result: a high fre-
quency of injuries of the ,bone growth cen-
tres among children. •
Ski poles have •been the basis for many
shoulder and thumb dislocations,. and for
muscle problems in the arms. and back.
Without pull-away straps, a caught pole ex-
erts a tremendous shock on the limb ras the
body moves forward with speed.
'1'hesKrer must be properly stressed for the
activity -" not become chilled or over-
heated. 'Poo many or too few clothes can
contribute to colds and other respiratory
problems.
Properly designed ski clothes let you take
simple falls without getting wet and without
getting hurt. Ski clothes should have a high
coefficient of friction, which slows the speed
of the skier when he comes into contact with
the snow. .
Whether you are a novice or a seasoned
professional at snow•skiing, remember that
your body is your machine. 'l'o ,protect it,
you must practice safe procedures and keep
it operating efficiently.
Snowmobile accidents avoidable
There are a number of serious snowmobil-
ing accidents each, year. Many of these
mishaps •could have been avoided if
operators had used comlilon sense.
Snowmobilers should use their machines the
sarne6s• you would a car on a highway.
Follow safe driving rules to avoid accidents '
with your snowmobile this winter. "DO I.'1'
OUR WAY - IT WON'T HURT" This has
'been a message from the Farm Safety:
Association.
