Several of the BW color negative films have no amber mask, thus when

on color paper have a  sepia to yellow cast to the print.  If  the lab has a 
proper channel for these films, they will come out nice  B&W.  If you are 
printing on silver  BW paper, or from scanned  negs, you get a true BW 
print. 
   


Sonny,

That was probably the problem, as I get really nice B&W priints here at 
home. 
 The local camera shop has a really good lab and people who do the work.  A 
bit more expensive than my wife likes, but it is worth it.
