Recognizing that knowledge of fire was needed for land management planning, state-of-the-knowledge reviews were produced that became known as the “Rainbow Series.” The series consisted of six publications, each with a different colored cover (frequently referred to as the Rainbow series), describing the effects of fire on soil (Wells and others 1979), water (Tiedemann and others 1979), air (Sandberg and others 1979), flora (Lotan and others 1981), fauna (Lyon and others 1978), and fuels (Martin and others 1979). The Rainbow Series proved popular in providing fire effects information for professionals, students, and others. Printed supplies eventually ran out, but knowledge of fire effects continued to grow. To meet the continuing demand for summaries of fire effects knowledge, the interagency National Wildfire Coordinating Group asked Forest Service research leaders to update and revise the series. To fulfill this request, a meeting for organizing the revision was held January 46, 1993 in Scottsdale, AZ. The series name was then changed to “The Rainbow Series.” The five-volume series covers air, soil and water, fauna, flora and fuels, and cultural resources. The Rainbow Series emphasizes principles and processes rather than serving as a summary of all that is known. However, it does provide a lot of useful information and sources for more detailed study of fire effects. The five volumes, taken together, provide a wealth of information and examples to advance understanding of basic concepts regarding fire effects in the United States and Canada. While this volume focuses on the United States and Canada, there are references to information and examples from elsewhere in the world (e.g. Australia, South Africa, Spain, Zimbabwe, and others) to support the statements made. As conceptual background, they provide technical support to fire and resource managers for carrying out interdisciplinary planning, which is essential to managing wildlands in an ecosystem context. Planners and managers will find the series helpful in many aspects of ecosystem-based management, but they also have the responsibility

McDermott, representing the Pastime Athletic Club from New York City, captured the victory in the first running of the Boston Marathon, then known as the American Marathon. Fifteen runners started the first race with 10 finishing the 24.5-mile trek from Metcalf’s Mill in Ashland, Massachusetts, to the finish line at the Oval on Irvington Street in downtown Boston. McDermott, who had won the only other marathon on U.S. soil the previous October in New York, took the lead from Harvard athlete Richard Grant over the hills in Newton. Although McDermott walked several times during the final miles, he still won by a comfortable six-minute, 52-second margin in 2:55:10. 1. John J. McDermott (NY) ...........2:55:10 6.

    , --------------------- ----, , NE'vVZEALAND REPORT 16 .NOY\:<lllU'er1) I I Auckland, November 13--Arguments will rage for years about the accuracy of the Auckland marathon course over which 12 men--four New Zealanders, three Australi~~~, t\m, ,Americans, two Englishmen, and one Italian--beat Derek Clayton's former world best of 2:08: 3.• Gondi tions were perfect--"the best course ani best condi tions I have ever known," said veteran Jack Foster--with a dead flat, waterfront course, gentle bends, out ~~d back twice, bracin€; s~ air but no wind, temperatures and runners kept cool by a steady, fine driz,:le. But the fact that everyone of the first 20 placers set a lifetime best--by at least 2:51, one by as much as 15:13, and the 17 with a kno~~ previous best by an average of 8:36-• suggested that the trail was between one and two miles short. An Auckland traffic cop drove his motor cycle over it later and pronounced it 600 meters short according to his calibrated speedometer. However race organisers insisted that the distance had been checked three times by measuring wheel, itself verified by steel tape. The line of measure• ment was as recommended by I.A.A.F. rules, one meter out from the verge of the road. Co• measurer waS Dave Sirl, former 4:01.0 miler and New Zealand's most experienced runner from 1500 to 42,195m. The athletes, on the other hand, were unanimous in questioning the distance. "There's no way this course can be right," said Australian John Farrington.
