Also, from the 1960 BC yearbook, the Eagles had helmet numbers. I'll let you know if I find anything else worth mentioning. In '59 they had gold helmets with a red stripe

After looking through BC's yearbooks from 1955-1970, here are the results:

-1955 Leather helmets
1956-1959 Gold with single maroon stripe
1958-1961 Gold with single maroon stripe, helmet numbers (likely maroon but could be black)

1961 Gold, stripeless, helmet numbers (same as above)
1962-1980 Gold with grey mask

Also, reports of an 'eagle logo' turned out to be a reward sticker on a helmet or two - here's a look
