Abstract: The present invention is directed to novel insecticidal and/or miticidal compositions comprising bifenthrin and a cyano-pyrethroid. The compositions exhibit an unexpected increase in insecticidal activity as compared to the insecticidal activity of the individual components.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a novel insecticidal composition comprising bifenthrin and a cyano-pyrethroid which exhibit an unexpected increase in insecticidal activity as compared to the insecticidal activity of the individual components. The present invention is also directed to a novel insecticidal composition comprising bifenthrin and a cyano-pyrethroid in admixture with at least one agriculturally acceptable extender or adjuvant.

Abstract: A transportable, damped tennis practice device (10) is provided for the solitary practice of tennis strokes every two to three seconds. The device (10 ) preferably includes a base (12), a ball (16), wand structure (14) for mounting the ball (16) on one end thereof, connecting assembly (18) for attaching the other end of wand structure (14) to the base (12). The wand structure (14) is flexibly, resiliently formed in a predetermined, arcuate shape. The device (10) stands in a ready position until ball (16) is struck by a practitioner at which time the ball (16) and wand structure (14) begin to oscillate pivotally on the base (12), while the wand structure (14) also flexes to shapes other than the predetermined shape. The damping apparatus (20) includes a rod-like member (114) which indirectly acts on the connecting assembly (18) to damp the oscillatory motion.

Abstract: A tennis practice device for indoor use has a swingable upright arm pivotally connected to a weighted base. A tennis ball is connected to the top of the arm, and movement of the arm is limited and dampened by two cushions. An elastic strap normally holds the arm against one of the cushions. In the arm, an elongated wire with a spring trunk is surrounded by lengths of tubing arranged in telescopic fashion. The arm is resilient and capable of whip-like movement, rendering the impact resistance presented by the ball against a racquet similar to the resistance of a ball in actual play. Simultaneously, the combination of the pivot means with the resilient nature of the arm permits the ball to escape the follow-through stroke of the racquet, yet quickly return to its normal position to allow the tennis player to repeat strokes in rapid succession.
