The Proceedings of the Second Technical Conference
of the
Metropolitan Tree Improvement Alliance (METRIA II)
were prepared
primarily from transcripts of the tapes of the meetings,
which
required extensive editing.
The officers and members of METRIA gratefully
acknowledge
the cooperation and support of the organizations
that made
METRIA II a success: the City of Cleveland for offering
the
use of the meeting facilities in their Garden Center;
Mr. Ralph
Veverka for arranging the tour of Cleveland's street
trees;
Mr. William Hendricks for the tour of Lake County
Nursery
Exchange; and the U.S. Forest Service, Northeastern
area, for
providing the funds for publishing these proceedings.
