Ok, Haas lists that as 41 Ari, also Haas quotes Smyth on epsilon Ari as yellow/white.

Erik,

That's lambda Ari. The Belmont Society list describes lambda Ari as "yellow/purple/yellow/blue".

The list is intended to be stars that have an easily perceived color contrast.

gam Ari is not a color contrast star. The Astro League double star list describes it as "white-white"; the Belmont Society Double Star list as "bluish-white/white". eps Ari was not on the source RASC Observer's Guide List, but it is on the Belmont Colorful Doubles List as non-contrasting "white-white". The perceptual differences can all be discounted as observer variations.
