THE HURON EXPOSITOR, SEPTEMBER 11, 1985 — 135
Hunters urged to wear blaze orange
It's time for another breakthrough in
hunting safety, this time with visual rather
than educational means. If all big and small
game hunters wore hunter (blaze) orange,
Ontario's already low accident rate could be
reduced by an additional 75 per cent.
Over the past two decades, hunter safety
training and education programs have
resulted in substantial improvements in the
safety of the sport.
Numbers tell the story eloquently. In the
early 1960s, when hunter safety programs
were just beginning, up to 150 hunting
accidents were reported yearly. By the early
1980s,/the annual rate had fallen to less than
50. Fatal accidents have declined even more
spectacularly, from36 deaths in 1960 to fewer
than five in any year since 1980.
Hunting is now one of the safest outdoor
recreations, far less risky than skiing,
skating, swimming or boating. In fact, a
hunter is much safer in the field than he is
driving on the highway.
It can still be improved on. The recent
extension and modification of the hunter/
safety training program has included a new
manual and more rigorous hunter education
requirements. And, the complete use of
hunter orange can make hunting even safer
simply by making hunters more visible in the
field.
The monthly meeting of the Huronia
Branch of the Humane Society was held
September 4 at the Ontario Ministry of
Agriculture and Food Offices, Clinton
Members studied a letter from the
president of the Southwest Regional Branch
of the Society regarding a North American
Telethon to help raise funds for an inspector
in the area, and to educate the people on the
necessity of the Humane Society
Huronia members agreed that a letter
should be sent in support of the telethon
plans and the branch's willingness to assist

Plans were discussed to hold a Tag Day in

Centre to get
independent school
The way has been paved for an independ-
ent school inside the walls of the Bluewater
Centre located just outside of Goderich
The school. set up for the young offenders
at the centre, will be administered by the
Huron County board of education, but paid
for by the ministry of education and to some
extent the Ministry of Correctional Services.
The school board gave approval to an
agreement between it and the provincial
corrections ministry at its September session
Superintendent Paul Carroll said the
regional offices of both provincial ministries
have approved the agreement
Mr. Carroll said about 10 )0 15 teachers will
be hired as well as a principal. librarian and
possibly a vice-principal. The education
ministry pays for staff and school supplies
The superintendent said he expects each
class will have no more than 16 pupils He
told the school board young offenders started
arriving at the centre the last week of August.
"I was told that on average. one person per
day will be arriving for the next three to four
months." said Mr. Carroll
A total of 120 young people. 100 males and
20 females, ranging in age from 15 to 20 will
be accommodated at the Bluewater Centre.
The corrections ministry will be providing a
library in addition to the regular classrooms.
as well as a support budget.
Mr. Carroll said the staff will be initially
hired from within the board's own teaching
staff, He noted both elementary and
secondary teachers will be needed for the
programs to be offered. The superintendent
said he has received enquiries about teaching
careers both from Huron County teachers and
teachers from Southwestern Ontario.
It was also noted security would be
provided by the Bluewater Centre.
In fact, having bunters wear the equivalent
of a vest and hat -- 500 square inches of blaze
orange on their back, chest and head -- will
reduce hunting accidents by 75 per cent.
There has also been a significant reduction
in hunting accidents that have occured
because a member of the party was out of
sight when the shot was fired. Hunter orange
makes it far easier for members of a party to
keep visual contact with each other both over
long distances and in thick cover. Hunter
orange, first marketed about 20 years ago, is
the only color that will make hunters more
visible under all conditions of light and cover.
Red, once regarded as the traditional color
for hunting is no longer recommended for two
reasons. Among the 10 per cent of the
population that has color vision deficiencies,
many suffer from red -green color blindness,
and may not be able to distinguish red easily.
And, early and late in the day, red becomes
difficult for almost anyone to distinguish.
If some colors aren't noticeable, others are
dangerous. White, for example, is an
extremely poor color choice.
Hunter orange is, in fact, twice as bright as
natural objects seen in the bush. The color
glows because it converts ultraviolet and blue
light waves to visible orange, enhancing the
orange reflected back to the viewer by white
light. Those who aren' t familiar with the color
have probably seen it worn by highway
construction crews.
One of the reasons for reluctance in making
blaze orange mandatory 'for hunting is the
objections of some hunters who feel that
blaze orange will reduce their hunting
success. But in areas where hunter orange
has been made mandatory, the deer harvest
was increased while the accident rate
plummeted. In Maine, for example, when
blaze orange became mandatory, a quarter of
a million hunters wore it and, for the first time
in history, the state had no hunting fatalities.
Meanwhile, their big game harvest was as
high as ever.
Members of the Ontario Federation of
Anglers and Hunters have, over the years,
taken a leading role in hunter safety.
Recently, they passed a resolution asking for
blaze orange to be a requirement for all
hunters except waterfowlers and big game
bowhunters,
First day is .noisy at BOE_
The first day of school is typically busy at
schools and ultimately the school board
office. This year however was a little noisier
than usual at the Huron County board of
education office.
Receptionist Linda Bosnan was greeted at
the board office door in Clinton Tuesday,
September 3 by constant ringing telephones.
There were no queries from concerned
parents, teachers or students. The ringing
was regular, about once a minute, but most
often there was no one on the line.
Bell Canada, who operates the board office
system, was summoned but the first
repairman said he didn't know anything
about the particular telephone system in use.
The second repairman arrived in the middle

of the afternoon. He discovered the main
control box, on the exterior of the board office
building, had been struck by lightning during
the electric storm that blew through Clinton
the previous Sunday.
The phone lines were cut, leaving the
board office with no phone lines and awaiting'
parts from Kitchener,
The worst part, said the receptionist, is
people could still call in to the board office
and must have wondered if the phones were
being ignored.
One sympathetic caller, said Ms. Bosnan,
commented that staff must be too busy to
answer the phones.
"That's the right attitude," laughed the
receptionist.
