Referee Whistles
Acme Thunder whistles are generally the best whistle for Referees.  You can usually find them (and lanyards and rubber covers) at most sporting goods stores.
Starter Bells
The 5 1/2" brass teacher's bells are generally the best bells for Starters to use when signaling one lap to go for distance events.  Here are 3 online sources for these bells:
