MGCSA News: It must have been the 4th of July lag. We
had a light turnout for golf at St. Andrews. We did have 75
for dinner. Phil Santucci had his pump house burn down with
not only the old pump but also the new, so his water supply
was limited. The winter ice damage was still bothering i few
holes on the front side but the backside had some beautiful
turf with a lot of bent in the fairways. You certainly can never
forget the 5th hole. It looks like you are hitting 300 yds. down
and 300 yds. out. 115 steps down. Fortunately you don’t have
to climb that hill. Mel Lucas Jr. spent considerable time in the
club house studying all the old clubs, balls, etc. They are dis­

Vol. V III, No. 6

played throughout the clubhouse. The history of golf was
there to study, that’s for sure. Phil Santucci was served
peanut butter sandwiches to start, followed by spaghetti. Mr.
Black the manager did an excellent job. We guessed at 75
and hit it pretty close. We still are guessing and it shouldn’t
be.
Superintendents Championship had a small field—Vinnie
Pentenaro took all the marbles, followed by Mark Millet and
Ted Horton, Bill Somers took the Class C Championship—
Scott Niven took Class B Championship.
Dr. Ralph Engel—showed some interesting slides of his trip
to Europe for the International Turf Grass Conference.
Ralph showed us that there were a few Engels in Germany.
Turf on golf courses on the main continent was not as refined
as here in the U.S. Ralph did visit some soccer fields where
money was spent freely to produce a well drained field along
with turf. He felt they could utilize Rye grasses more. Even
though some of the experiment stations were just beginning
research in turf. The equipment they were using far sur­
passed anything we have in the U.S. Ralph enjoyed a few
good German beers. Ralph also received a special medallion
from the O.J. Noer Foundation for involvement in research
for the Foundation.
Let’s try to support the Labriola Memorial Tournament.

his last regular meeting before heading North.

Editors Comments in Regard to Rumors

Right now I am going through a job change and I have been
involved to some degree with helping the club find a Superin­
tendent. I have showed each Superintendent who has been
interviewed the golf course, which my chairman had asked me
to do, and I was glad to do it. I also informed the committee
of the candidates technical knowledge. I tried to be fair in my
evaluation. All through the job opening, the word was, oh
Harry Nichol has the inside tract, or so and so has the job,
when they hadn’t even decided or finished interviewing candi­
dates. It should be pointed out that Mike Caravella was of­
fered the job on his own merits, and that his father A1 had
absolutely nothing to do with any part of the interview or
contact with any member of the committee. How these things
get started is beyond me. I would just like to say unless you
hear it from the horses mouth, don’t say anthing. I think in
regard to ethics, etc., we should all take a little moment and
review a code that I try to live by as a Rotarian. The Rotary
4-way test goes as follows:
The 4-way test of things we think, say or do
First—is it the truth?
Second—is it fair to all concerned?
Third—will it build good will and better friendships?
Fourth—will it be beneficial to all concerned?

MCGSA Research Fund Report:
Hyperodes Weevil Project:

The monies are starting to come in from the various clubs.
We still have a long way to go and certainly each individual
member should be able to contribute also. There have been
very few superintendents contributing to date and we should
be the leaders. Please make your check out to MGCSA
Research Committee and send to Box 37, Rye, N.Y. We must
raise another $5,000 to reach our goal for 1978. To date the
following clubs and individuals have contributed to the 1978.

INTERNATIONAL TURF MEETING PRESENTATION,
JULY 6,1978
By Rachel Therrien
Winged Foot Golf Club

The highlight of the MGCSA July 6 meeting held at St.
Andrews G.C., was a presentation by guest speaker Dr.
Ralph Engel of Rutgers University.
The topic of the slide presentation, supplemented with Dr.
Engel’s commentary, was the International Turf Meeting.
Those persons participating in the conference were involved
in a tour of the following Western European countries:
France, Great Britian, Scotland, Switzerland, and West
Germany.
Preceding any discussion of the details pertaining to ad­
vancement resulting from turf research in these various
countries, Dr. Engel reminded those in attendance that ob­
servation of local species and varieties of vegetation was an
important element in one’s attempt to determine and under­
stand climatic conditions of a particular area or region.
The first stop of the tour was France, a country which ap­
peared to have a lot of contrast in the degree of maintainence
received by certain public areas. Despite its inconsistency in
landscape maintenance, France has become a leader in
European turf research during the 70’s. A great deal of em­
phasis has been directed to soil research, especially pertain­
ing to compaction treatment and soil nutrition which has been
a problem with agricultural grain fields. According to Dr.
Engel, the French research programs involving soil
compaction and soil amendment studies was more advanced
in their methods and results than comparable studies under­
taken in the United States. Facilities, such as greenhouse,
were better equipped for turf research and utilized more
automated equipment.
It seems that some agricultural practices have influenced
methods employed in turf maintenance. Manure appears to
be the main source of fertilizer but, fertilization is kept to a
minimum. It is believed that by doing so the occurrance of
thatch in highly maintained areas can be reduced. Many areas
in Europe do not have turf problems resulting from the
presence of thatch. In England, thatch or fiber is allowed to
accumulate in an attempt to relieve turf problems which
flourish under wet conditions. This method is incorporated in

Wimbledon’s maintenance program. Diseases such as
pythium or dollar spot are practically non-existant. There is
an extensive disease problem, most notably—Pink Patch,
involving various species of ryegrass. In the milder European
climates, the incidence of crabgrass becomes less.
In the area of roadside stabilization, France again, has been
a European leader. Many slopes along the highways are
stabilized by terracing the landform.
.¿a©**-

This design also assists in handling and directing surface
run-off drainage. Hydro-seeding is also practiced.
The use of Lombardy Poplars along the roadside shoulders
is also a common practice in most of the European countries
visited.

Finally, turf paving blocks are extensively used, especially
in automobile parking lots. A concrete form is the basic block
material with an open center for vegetative material. There
are debates over the maintenance and practicality, in eco­
nomic terms, of its use but it is a beginning in solutions that
are needed in order to make our asphalt dominated landscape
more verdant.

In conclusion, turf research in Europe is less extensive then
in the United States. Granted there is a difference in certain
maintenance practices but that may possibly be due to dif­
ferences in knowledge or technology available. The demands
for good turf and efficient land use is steadily increasing the
world over. Therefore, agricultural research and exchanging
of information should continue. The International Turf
Meeting can be interpreted as being a device for this reciproci­
ty to continue.

February 1 and 2
SEA ISLAND, GA., WILL HOST 1979 TOURNAMENT
The 1979 preconference golf tournament will be played at
The Cloister Hotel, Sea Island, Ga., Feb. 1 and 2. This
location, approved by the Executive Committee, was chosen
after consideration by the tournament committee of clubs in
the Atlanta area and on Jekyll Island.
The 36-hole Sea Island Golf Club, where GCSAA member
James M. Hildebrand is superintendent, is known an an ex­
cellent golf complex. The course is located on the south shore
of St. Simons Island, about five and a half miles from the
hotel.
The ladies’ tournament will be at one of the other two
courses on Sea Island or at the nearby Brunswick Country
Club.
Sea Island and St. Simons Island are part of the beautiful
semitropical Georgia coastal islands, about halfway between
Savannah, Ga., and Jacksonville, Fla.
The Cloister is the only hotel on Sea Island, and is an out­
standing resort complex. In addition to its widely known golf
course, it offers tennis facilities, a riding stable, skeet and
trap shooting and excellent dining rooms and cocktail
lounges.
Group rates, including all meals, will be offered to GCSAA
tournament players. In addition, the hotel will extend compli­
mentary green fees to players staying at the hotel during the
two tournament days, plus a practice round on Wednesday.
Sea Island and St. Simons Island are linked by a causeway
to Brunswick and can be reached directly by air via Air South
from Altanta.
Complete information about the tournament will be dis­
tributed the latter part of October, along with conference and
show information.

UPDATE ON COOL WEATHER BROWN
PATCH
A CONTINUING PROBLEM

—RAIN OR SHINE—
9:30 A.M.-2:30 P.M.
FRIDAY, AUGUST 4, 1978

A Brief History
For years Brown Patch has been recognized as a warm
temperature, humid weather disease of colonial bents and the
older mixed creeping bentgrasses of greens and tees. Typi­
cally the disease would smolder causing patches of brownish
discolored grasses until the weather became especially
“ muggy” and warm when smoke rings and active patches
would appear overnight.
Older writings about golf course diseases contain references
to winter Brown Patch but these brownish rings or patches
were little more than curiosities. In the mid 1970’s, however,
persistent reports of brown rings or yellowish brown rings or
patches were being made from golf courses throughout the
East. Often these symptoms occurred when temperatures
were in the 50’s, 60’s, or 70’s. Superficially, they resembled
typical Brown Patch, but in many instances symptoms were
not controlled by the common Brown Patch fungicides or at
best were checked for only a few days. As the reports filtered
in, we were about to blame the disease on fungicide resistant
low temperature strains of Rhizoctonia solani and we were
going to publish a note about the resistance problem. For­
tunately, Dr. Robert Sherwood of the U.S.D.A. Pasture
Research Laboratory asked a most important question: How
do you know the fungus is Rhizoctonia solani, the cause of
the common warm temperature Brown Patch? To make a

long story short, we didn’t and it wasn’t. The fungus super­
ficially looked like R. solani, but there the relationship
stopped. After much literature and laboratory searching the
fungus turned out to be a Ceratobasidium sp., a Rhizoctonia
relative toR. solani but completely different in temperature
requirements and fungicide sensitivity.
The Current Situation
As more samples and reports of disease occurences rolled
in, it became apparent that we were not dealing with a curi­
osity but with a problem of consequence on golf turf. Sym­
ptoms have been reported on fairways, greens, tees, and
aprons.
We could isolate the Ceratobasidium fungus from many of
these turf areas; from some we could isolate neither
Ceratobasidium nor R. solani but still other unidentified
fungi. At present we believe that the disease is not going to
become the scourge of turfgrass but merely another problem
to be solved on the way to quality turf. It would appear that
humid, cool weather is most favorable for disease develop­
ment.
Where did the problem come from: Why Ceratobasidium
now and not 10years ago?
Any new problem always stimulates the question of why
now? and not before? Answers have ranged from: the dis­
continuance of growing season use of mercury to the intro­
duction of the benzimidazole systemic fungicides in wide use.
Others have blamed shifts in the weather towards cooler,
wetter summers. At this point there is no correct answer and
there may never be one. The best we can do is speculate based
on the facts on hand. Our best estimate is that the same shift
towards cooler, wetter summers that has brought on
increased Red Thread prevalence and severity has also
brought Cool Weather Brown Patch to prominence. Fungi re­
spond to their environment. Those that are favored by a
change in the environment become more common; those that
are less favored become less common.
Where do we go from there?
The major practical problem that the turfgrass manager
faces is disease control to a level compatible with the uses of

the area in question. At present we just do not have enough
information about the disease to make clear recommenda­
tions for either cultural or fungicide control. Environmental
manipulation does not seem to offer promise, especially for
the golf course superintendent who is locked into a multitude
of other concerns dealing with irrigation and culture. From a
fungicide view the best recommendation would be to stick
with success. If Cool Weather Brown Patch does appear and
your current program is not holding it, then try shifting to
other fungicides labeled and registered for Brown Patch until
you meet with at least partial success. We are attempting to
work out the fungicide situation. Dan Loughner, who is
working on his M.S. in Plant Pathology with us, will be
evaluating fungicides in the laboratory, greenhouse, and with
luck, in the field. We will be screening both the Rhizoctonia
solani warm temperature Brown Patch group as well as the
Ceratobasidium cool temperature group of fungi.
