3 of the TOP EVENTS of '63 - '64 r

All Played on Courses Using Dr. Allen's True Organic! CARL SMITH/Nat ional PGA Country Club / P a l m Beach Gardens, Fla.

The life in Dr. Allen's "True Organic" has added new life to my turf . . . This living product feeds the soil as well as the turf. It makes sense to me, that to obtain sturdy, healthy turf, you need good rich fertile soil. "True Organic" gives me both! Even the heaviest applica-tions of plant nutrients lose effectiveness unless the soil is fertile . . . I'd say the life in "True Organic" (Dr. Allen says his "workers") must put in a 24 hour day to give results like I've obtained.

BOB MUELLER /Co lumbus Country Club / Columbus, Ohio Good turf maintenance includes the use of products that give good turf results. This is why I include Dr. Allen's "True Organic" in my regular fertilizing program . . . It's a good prod uct and it gives me good results!

MEL WARNECKE / East Lake Country Club / Atlanta, Ga. For two years I've been beefing up my turf by including Dr. Allen's "True Organic" in my regular fertilizing program . . . I've found that weak soil will not retain nor fully utilize nutrients applied, so I put muscle into mine by feeding it 'True Organic". At the same time, I'm also putting new life, vigor and health in my turf ! I know "True Organic" . . . is fuel for my soil and food for my turf!

This is more than just a victory smile. It reflects the excitement a woman feels immediately after she has shot a 64. The young lady is Ruth .les-sen and her score, which came in the Dallas Civ-itan Open at Glen Lakes, tied the all-time Ladies PGA 18-hole record set in 1952 by Patty Berg. But in spite of that great one-round effort, Ruth was able to claim no bet-ter than third place.

just about attained its saturation point so far as public golf courses are concerned . . . In the past couple of years bowling alley and swimming pool business has leveled off to the point where one must think hard before embarking on a career of becoming a proprietor of a new bowl-ing establishment or the owner of a swim-ming pool club in Berks County."

Another warning to be heeded came indirectly from the annual meeting of the American Machine & Foundry Co. . . . Its 1963 net income was reported as being reduced to $9,510,102 after $9.5 million had been set aside for potential losses on the bowling business . . . And, Brunswick Corp., at its annual meeting, reported a $15,000,000 "special provision on ac-counts receivable." . . . Both companies had operating profits in 1963 but writing off losses on the bowling "boom" hurt. . . And Brunswick and AMF are run by shrewd businessmen who got pushed toward the brink by a boom stampede . . . From their experiences in the bowling boom, the golf business ought to learn a lesson.

When the POWERscreen is used in conjunction with a Royer Shredder, both top dressing •quality and production are improved. The shredder "Royerates" the top dressing ingre-dients by a cleated-belt action that shreds, aerates, removes non-shreddables, and blends

the ingredients to a homogeneous con-dition. In addition, the shredder

feeds the vibrating screen at an angle and height that assures

maximum production.

new Royer

POWERSCREEN mechanizes the

production of fine top dressing

Now, preparation of the fine, uniform top dressing required for greens and tees can be a mechanized operation by using the latest of Royer's golf course-designed equipment—the POWERscreen. This unit combines the screening and conveying of top dressing into a one-step operation. A sloped-deck, vibrating screen

prepares the fine top dressing mix-ture and a discharge conveyor moves the mixture away from the screen to a height convenient for either stock-

piling or loading small trucks or trailers. Rug-gedly constructed, the POWERscreen features—

welded, tubular-steel frame

woven-steel-wire screen with VA" openings (other openings available)

portability-easily moved by one man

troughing-type, discharge conveyor

choice of drives—gasoline or electric

traditional Royer low-maintenance design
