Slight discoloration of the turf m a y be experienced initially, but a f t e r this initial recovery, the turf is u s u ally greener.

All t u r f g r a s s m a n a g e r s would find this conference particularly important a n d informative in r e g a r d s to control of vegetation.

T h e realization of w h a t w e a r e doing to our environment a n d likewise w h a t our environment can do for us is related to m a n ' s activity.

G o s s M a n h a t t a n r y e g r a s s , an improved variety of perennial r y e g r a s s , is a g o o d contribution to t u r f g r a s s m a n a g e m e n t . M a n h a t t a n h a s the usual characteristics of the perennial r y e g r a s s with the exception that it is finer leaved, p r o d u c e s m a n y more stems, which enh a n c e s the density, while retaining the better characteristics of r y e g r a s s from the standpoint of: 1.

H o w e v e r , the plants can increase their diameter b y producing more tiller or s t e m s b y crown e x p a n sion.

It h a s a few of the problems a s s o c i a t e d with the old perennial-type r y e g r a s s . It does not m o w easily a n d frequently h a s s h r e d d e d l e a f t i p s giving the turf a dull g r a y a p p e a r a n c e soon a f t e r mowing. If not well fertilized, particularly with nitrogen, it is most s u s c e p t a b l e to red thread dise a s e in the fall. M a n h a t t a n r y e g r a s s is not suitable for golf c o u r s e s except for cart p a t h a r e a s or other a r e a s with extremely h e a v y wear. It must be planted heavily enough to develop a d e n s e turf. If planted to s p a r s e l y it will p r o d u c e clumps that g r o w unevenly and produce an unsightly a p p e a r a n c e . If you wish to do a little experimenting this would be a g o o d g r a s s to look at for p l a y g r o u n d s , football fields a n d certain park a r e a s for 1971.

Golf Association Green Section Publication a s it w a s originally printed in the L o s A n g e l e s T i m e s . A l t h o u g h the article is a little bit on the old side at the present time, the facts are non-the-less there. T h e editor wishes to compliment Jim M u r r a y on such an eloquent presentation of the g o o d merits of t u r f g r a s s a s c o m p a r e d to synthetic covering. S o m e w h e r e there should be a " H a l l of F a m e " for persons such a s Jim M u r r a y , who wished to perpetuate the real thing. C o n g r a t u l a t i o n s Jim. " I don't know about you, but I'm kind of an oldfashioned g u y who likes the real M c C o y . I want butter that comes from cows. I like cotton in my shirts, wool in my socks, leather in my shoes. I'm sick of the polyester, permanent press plastic world. I don't want additives in my bread, chemicals in my beer. I think aspirin is the best cold remedy a n d castor oil will cure almost anything else that's w r o n g with you. I s q u e e z e real o r a n g e s for b r e a k f a s t or I go without. I won't buy a suitcase if its got plastic h a n g e r s in it. But I'm willing to forgive the chemists pharmacologists and syntheticians anything if they'll just keep their cotton-pickin' — pardon me, nylon-pickin' — h a n d s off sports. Football should be played on g r a s s , baseball should be p l a y e d outdoors, a n d golf should be played a g a i n s t nature, not hydraulics. I wish D u P o n t would stick to explosives, a n d M o n s a n t o to fertilizers, a n d leave the f a m e s m a n s h i p to us. T a k e last weekend: T h r e e fine football teams from the L o s A n g e l e s area — U S C , U C L A , a n d the R a m s — ventured outside the a l l - w o o l - a n d - a - y a r d wide world of the Colliseum a n d entered the plastics division of sports. Y o u would have thought they were playing the g a m e on solid ice. Y o u half-expected them to halt the g a m e at a n y time a n d say, " W a i t a minute, I'll g o home a n d get my s k a t e s . " T h e only g a m e that should be played on an artificial s u r f a c e is pool. (I exclude hockey, because, while it is artifically made, the s u r f a c e is, after all, real ice a n d not L i b b y - O w e n s - F o r d derivative). I am not fully p e r s u a d e d a football field should even be M O W E D . (I remember one year the T r o j a n s of U S C p l a y e d a g a m e in C o l o r a d o in which they complained the g r a s s w a s too tall for them, but I have to think a n y o f f e n s e that can't move the ball a g a i n s t high g r a s s should turn in its scholarships.) A THORNLESS ROSE Y o u see, g o o d old American know-how can't leave a n y sport, fabric, climate, river, lake, or a n y other natural condition alone. It would tinker with P a r a d i s e . It feels it can fake nature. It can give you a rose without thorns, cattle without horns. I expect a n y d a y now they will let the contract for construction of a new synthetic earth a n d use this old one for a w a r e h o u s e . T a k e baseball. T h e y begin to construct parks to eliminate the cheap home runs ( f o r g e t t i n g the cheap home runs s a v e d baseball a f t e r the Black S o x s c a n d a l ) a n d the next thing you knew they were playing it ( C O N T I N U E D O N PAGE 5, C O L U M N 2) /. Gould G o o d N e w s ! T E R S A N 1991 h a s been a p p r o v e d b y the U . S . D . A . for control of Fusarium P a t c h a n d certain other t u r f g r a s s d i s e a s e s . T E R S A N 1991 is the s a m e a s B E N L A T E a n d contains 50% benomyl, which is the a c c e p t e d generic or common name. D u P o n t is now a p p l y i n g the general term of " T E R S A N " to all of their turf f u n g i c i d e s a n d therefore h a v e n a m e d this one " T E R S A N 1991."' Benomyl ( T E R S A N 1991) h a s given us g o o d control of Fusarium P a t c h ever since w e b e g a n testing it in 1967. S e v e r a l rates a n d various intervals of application have been tried. B e n o m y l will p r o b a b l y protect g r a s s longer than most other e f f e c t i v e f u n g i c i d e s but, until current research is completed, w e recommend s p r a y i n g every two w e e k s using 2 oz. of the commercial product ( T E R S A N 1991 or B e n l a t e ) in 10 gallons of w a t e r per 1000 sq. feet. Benonvyl is much s a f e r than the mercurials. It h a s not injured g r a s s at double the r e c o m m e n d e d rate ( 4 oz./lOOO) in l a r g e tests nor even at s t r o n g e r r a t e s in small s c a l e tests. A s with a n y new fungicide, we recommend that you test benomyl first on a small a r e a of turf b e c a u s e w e obviously cannot test new fungicides under all possible conditions. T h e n , if no problems a p p e a r , proceed to more extensive use. T h e addition of benomyl to our a r s e n a l gives us three very different types of effective f u n g i c i d e s for use a g a i n s t Fusarium: benomyl (which is a benzimidaz o l e ) , F o r e ( a n d related types, which a r e dithiocarbam a t e s ) , a n d the mercurials.
