Abstract/Contents:A general statement concerning the vast progress that turfgrass research has made over the last 10-30 years. A host of new procedures and products have dramatically improved the efficiency and quality of turfgrass maintenance. The recent implementation of DDT as an insecticide is cited as proof of modern advancements in pest control. Extensive passages are quoted from an address by Dr. R. A. Oakley from an address given in February of 1926, published in the Bulletin of the USGA Green Section, as a point of departure to elucidate just how far research and practices have come.
