Abstract/Contents:"I'm going to make my remarks very brief. I would like to say a few things about what we are doing here, mostly in the extension aspect of our turf work in this section. One is a very close and mutual benefit association with the Mid-Atlantic Golf Course Superintendents Association. This spring Al Radko made several plantings of Zoysia at Fairfax Country Club, Congressional, East Potomac, Army-Navy, Argyle and Sligo. The way they did that was to use the Aerifier and made a couple of passes and, where each of those hollow spoons entered the ground, they inserted a seedling. Tomorrow we will see where this was done and on Tuesday you will get to see more of these plantings on the other courses in this region. At the same time we tried to put out some plugs of Zoysia and a rather extensive program of testing some of these newer grasses down at East Potomac. Another thing that Al and I have had quite a few headaches and perhaps a little pride in is the working up of a News Letter and constructive suggestions report with the Mid-Atlantic group, namely their education committee. We feel that this has been of the utmost benefit to Al and me and it would appear that the Mid-Atlantic group as well has gotten something out of it."
