Abstract/Contents:Discusses drought conditions in Kitchener, Ontario, Canada. States that "replacing the drought-stricken grass in Kitchener's major sports fields could cost more than $110,000" in 1988. Describes a water restriction in place in the city and the effect it has combined with the drought on turf in the area. Suggests that "lawns couldn't be equated with the playing fields, which represent a substantial investment to taxpayers."
