Abstract: Transverse one dimensional foliations play an important role in the study of codimension one foliations. In cite{KR2}, the authors introduced the notion of flow box decomposition of a 3-manifold

M

. This is a decomposition of

M

that reflects both the structure of a given codimension one foliation and that of a given transverse flow. In this paper, flow box decompositions are used to extend some classical foliation results to foliations that are not

C^{2}

. Enhancements of well-known results of Calegari on smoothing leaves, Dippolito on Denjoy blowup of leaves, and Tischler on approximations by fibrations are obtained. The methods developed are not intrinsically 3-dimensional techniques, and should generalize to prove corresponding results for codimension one foliations in

n

-dimensional manifolds.
