Phillips comment Continued from page 8 grower whose margin is ever narrowed by the slow eradication of field burning. But the golf course industry and, more impor-tant, its detractors owe these growers a great measure of credit for yielding to popu-lar will and methodically pursuing alterna-tives to field burning, a time-honored rou-tine practiced since man first discovered the miracle of agriculture (see page 1).

Growth in the golf course industry, like everything else, is an evolutionary pro-cess. Technology is developed and some-times it's taken away.

But don't let it be said that industry members aren't willing to budge on envi-ronmental issues. Look to Oregon. Look to Washington, D.C., where the Environmen-tal Protection Agency continually ups the ante on prospective registrants. Look to either coast, where developers trade land and alter profit margins to appease various environmental commissions.

By and large, the golf course industry has a good sense of when to fight and when to move on. If only the same could be said for its opponents.
