SUMMARY


Not less then 130 years have past since the foundation in Croatia of a professional-
social forest organization, marking also the 100-year anniversary of the
permanent publication of its Journal Šumarski List. This organization has changed
its name during that time several times. It was established as a Forest Section
of the Croato-Slavonian Agricultural Society, growing later into the Croato-
Slavonian Forest Society, while after the First World War it has been actiong as
the Yugoslav Forest Association.


Today the engineer and technicians of our professions are united in the Union
of Engineers and Technicians of Foresty and Timber Industry of Croatia, which
jointly with the forest and timber industry organizations of other socialist republics
and provinces constitutes the Union of Engineers and Technicians of Forestry
and Wood Processing Industry of Yugoslavia. In the SR of Croatia our Union
represents the oldest forest society in Yugoslavia and its is undoubtedly the
forerunner of all the present unions.


The fererunner of Šumarski List were »Trudovi odseka šumarskog za Hervatsku
i Slavoniu« (Works of the Forest Section for Croatia and Slavonia) which
represent the Journal of the Society of the period and they were published as
annals for the first time in 1847.


These dates, as announced, were celebrated by a solemn commemoration
on the 11th of June, 1976, in Zagreb. These three numbers of gumarski List are
devoted to the commemorations and grand jubilees of our professions.


In the part I are presented the »Works of the Forest Section for Croatia
and Slavonia«, the lives of Franjo Šporer, who was called by Fran Kesterčanek


— as the first Croatia forest scientist, and of Vladoje Kereškenji, a renovator of
the Croato-Slavonian Forest Society, who was its first secretary and the man
who had prepared the first number of Šumarski List for publication.
In the part II of this double number are described the celebrations and
manifestations in connection with the jubilee (recognition of some deserving
members of our Union, special exhibitions in the Forestry House, etc.), presenting
an introductory word by the president of the Union of Engineers and Technicians
of Forestry and the Timber Industry of Croatia, Ing. Stanko Tomaševski, a report
