The in - per layer, which can he used for any type of cold weather hunting, is a two- piece undergarment in a fabric made of Du Pont "Thermax" polyester fiber. The new material is as soft as cotton and will not retain perspiration 'moisture. Unique hollow fibers "wick" maisture vapor away from the skin, yet • retain _body heat. The middle layer of the system offers hunters several options. For big game and, waterfowl hunting, a zippered jacket and matching pants of "Polarfleece" polyester fabric offer lightweight warmth, These garments can be Ivorn..under parkas and over: pants to form a complete system. For ,upland hunting, normally done in dry weather, Remington presents an at- tractive, warm shirt of "Worsterlon" for ,use in place of the "Polarfleece" mid -wear. The shirt is available, in red, green and brown and can be worn under upland vests and jackets. On colder days, hunters can add the undergarments of "Thermax" for addi- tional warmth. Parkas and overpants designed with special features for big game and waterfowl hunters complete the Rem- ington Outdoor Clothing system. These garments feature a shell fabric of tough, lightweight Du Pont "Cordura" nylon that is five times as durable as cotton duck. Waterproof, windproof "Gore-Tex" is laminated inside the shell of "Cordura". Because "Gore- Tex" allows perspiration moisture to escape, hunters will stay warm, dry /tl and comfortable during outdoor activity. Thennoliten , Du Pont's thin new in- sulation material, adds warmth to the parkas .and overpants without adding bulk and weight. Big game and water- fowl parkas have.a number of features designed with the hunter's convenience in mind. Large, pleated, bellows shell pockets, call pockets and map pockets. help the hunter remain organized in the field. The detachable hood can be stored in a special inside pocket in the parka when not in use. "Polarfleece"-lined handwarmer pockets allow the hunter to "cradle" his firearm while his hands are snug in the pockets. Some features of the new Remington parkas are so subtle that they might escape unnoticed. For example, the big game parka is intelligently designed with a "climbing cut." The front is slightly shorter than the back to allow easy movement over rough terrain. Yet, the long back with elasticized drawstring permits the hunter to sit on rocks and stumps and' refrain comfor- tably warm. The new Remington Outdoor Clothing system offers two options for waterfowl hunters. They can choose from a parka or a "four-way" garment. The four-way is designed to be worn where weather conditions may change rapidly in the course of a day. The outer shell is "Cor - dura" nylon laminated with "Gore- Tex". Inside, however, is a zip -in, reversible liner of "Polarfleece" faced on one side with "Cordura". Remington offers three stylish and functional outer garnnents for the upland hunter. The Remington Upland Front -Load Jacket features a blood- proof front load game bag, large shell pockets, leather suede shooting pat- ches, warming pockets lined • with "Polarfleece" and apocket for shooting glasses on the left sleeve. The jacket is constructed of a blend of tough "Cordura". The Remington Upland Classic jacket offers the finest traditional styl- ing plus a wealth of features. Con- structed of the same British tan "Cor - dura" fabric as the Front -Load jacket, the Classic includes leather shooting patches, large shell pockets with loops, warming pockets lined with • "Polarfleece" and a rear, drop-down bloodproof bird hag. An upland vest, in tan or blaze orange, completes the Remington offer- ing for upland hunters. It includes many of the same features as the jackets. All upland jackets as4 well as the uninsulated upland overpants are treated with Du Pont "Zepel" for' pro- tection against rain and stains. "No one has ever offered the hunter an engineered weather protection system for every kind of hunting," says Clem Riley, manager of the Remington Outdoor Clothing business. "Now hunters can get from 'a single 'source everything they need to protect them from virtually any weather condition." This new clothing will probably start showing up in Canada this fall, so if you're contemplating the purchase of some hunting clothes, you might be bet- ter to wait till then. Sport fisheries research grant awarded Molson Breweries and the Ontario Federation of Anglers and Hunters helped make possible a research project into lake trout growth that will improve the Ministry of Natural Resources' ability to manage the resource,for the province's anglers. Edward A. Trippel of the University of Guelph is the recipient of the 1986 Molson Sport Fisheries Research .Grant. At the On- tario Federation of Anglers and Hunters' 58th . Annual Meeting and Wildlife Con- ference, held in Toronto from February 20-23, he was awarded the $1,500 grant for his proposed study, Lake Trout Trophic Dynamics in Relation to the Forage Base. Lake trout are highly prized by anglers because they provide both sport and eating. Unfortunately however, the lake trout's slow rate of physical development means it does not attain reproductive maturity for many years and special management strategies are required to ensure . its sur- vival. Research that provides fisheries pro- fessionals with reliable new information on lake trout growth can contribute to the'more effective management of the species. Popularirnotorcycle-course Many motorcycle drivers will soon be en- joying riding in the warmer weather - safe- ly, as a result of skills learned through the Motorcycle Driver Training course of Con- estoga College. This popular and practical course begins again in April at three campuses — Doon •(Kitchener), Guelph and Waterloo. The course involves two consecutive Saturdays and Sundays, and features 20 hours of instruction in motorcycle driving, safety and maintenance, extensive prac- tical riding experience and small class sizes. A free Class M licence test will be given to participants on the final day of the course. Registration fee is $135, and the course is Clinton and area bowling league results • from page 18 In bowling on March 25,, Louise Gibbings had the high single and triple with scores of . 304 and 727.

Specifically, it will examine populations of cisco (the main component of the lake trout's diet in northwestern Ontario lakes) for their • size and abundant as forage and correlate this to the size and age of the lake trout when it spawns for the first time. The information .obtained will indicate whether piscivorous lake trout should, be managed according to the size of. the: forage fish available to them.. 3 Games over 200: Penn ' Overboe - 203, 250, 249; Heather Hart 226; Shirley Gliders - 209; Betty Kelly - 209, 224,. 279; Libby Van Dwane - 212, 205; Cheryl Jefferson - 205; Louise Gibbings - 239, 233; Nancy -Sue Swan = 201; Dorothy Carter - 201; Irene Thelan - 220; Robena Tyndall- 246; Dorothy Airdrie - 215; Lia Hoggarth - 215, 202; Lark Haskett - 236; Florence Cartwright - 217. 1SDA , AP I a' Jit offerr ierea jr;9r I: 1,417 ,; ?,,,Ve} open to applicants. 16` years of age or older.
