Millard Term expires September, 1968 10 Report of the Board of Selectmen To Orleans Voters and Taxpayers: After the conclusion of the March, 1967 Annual Meet- ing, the Board re- organized and the Chairmanships were voted to remain the same as in the previous year; that is: Arthur R. Finlay, Chairman Board of Selectmen. Arthur R. Finlay, Chairman Board of Assessors. Charles F. Moore, Jr., Chairman Board of Health. Gaston L. Norgeot, Chairman Park Commission. Gaston L. Norgeot, Chairman Board of Public Welfare. Gaston L. Norgeot, Chairman Nauset Beach Commission Under date of Sept. 30, 1967, the Board of Selectmen received the written resignation of Selectman Charles F. Moore, Jr. to be effective Nov. 1, 1967. This came as a surprise to the other members of the Board, having had no previous inkling of such an intention on the part of Mr. Moore. In view of the great volume of work involved in the period from Nov. 1st. to the Annual Meeting in March, the remaining members of the Board felt it was important to promptly take the necessary legal steps to bring the membership of the Board up to the full number. With this in mind, it was suggested to Mr. Moore that he resign immediately, which he readily agreed to. As a result of this prompt resignation, a Special Election was called for on Nov. 20th., at which time Dean K. Howerton was elected to fill the balance of Mr. Moore's term; that is, to March 13th, 1968. The lapse of time between the date of Mr. Moore's resignation; Sept. 30th., and the Election on Nov. 20th., was due to the legal requirements involved in calling for a Special Election. It was with a true sense of loss that we received the resignation of Harry F. Childs, due to illness. Harry proved to be a tower of strength to all Town Departments, and exemplified throughout his more than twelve years a true devotion to doing an outstanding ,job as Town Accountant. As an aftermath of Mr. Childs' resignation, the fol- lowing readjustments were made: 11 William Spear resigned as Town Clerk and was ap- pointed Town Accountant. Dean K. Howerton was appointed as Town Clerk and, in turn, resigned to run for election as Selectman, Assessor, Health & Public Welfare, to fill the vacancy created by the resignation of Charles F. Moore, Jr. This again created a vacancy in the office of Town Clerk. The Board of Selectmen then appointed Mrs. Jean H. Deschamps to fill the vacancy until the Town Meeting in March, 1968, at which time the office will be open for the balance of the unexpired term of William Spear to the March Annual Meeting of 1969. At all meetings of the Finance Committee where we felt we could be of assistance in clarifying Budget ques- tions or visualizing the tax year ahead, one or more members of the Board of Selectmen were present. The Board of Selectmen, as such, is the "catch -all" of the mass of general problems which arise from the functioning, or nonfunctioning, of the varied Town Govern- mental activities. These problems as they arise are given prompt attention, and resolved to the best of our judg- ment. As the Licensing Board, we had the usual volume of hearings, renewals, etc., among which were several ap- plications for additional Gasoline Service Station permits, which were denied after a Public Hearing. We wish to express our deep appreciation for the devotion to duty and the efficiency with which all per- sons in Orleans Town Government have carried out their varied responsibilities. All departments have functioned smoothly, and inter - departmental co- operation and rela- tionships have been of the highest order. In our supervis- ory capacity where all phases of Town Government opera- tions eventually devolve upon us, we believe we are in an ideal position to evaluate the over -all functions and opera- tions, and are, therefore, able to express the foregoing with confidence and authority, based on a factual knowl- edge. We commend your action in voting $40,000.00 from Available Funds to the Stabilization Fund, continuing a practice which has proven by experience to be of great importance in meeting extraordinary expenses, without major impact on the Tax Levy, the most graphic ex- ample of this being the construction of the new Fire and Police Station without borrowing. 12 The Stabilization Fund has again reached a sum in excess of $60,000.00, and we plan to ask your continued support in building this fund up yearly, to the point where it will cushion the impact of impending important Capital Expenditures, such as School Construction, Re- gional School Land Acquisition, Water Mains Extension, Harbor Improvements, Beach Facilities, etc. Our major objective here is to urge that we make every possible effort to take the necessary forward - looking steps to stabilize the year -to -year Tax Rate insofar as it is possible. This we have succeeded in doing to a great extent since 1962. 1962 — Rate $20.00 1963 — Rate $21.50 1964 — Rate $18.00 (Year of Land Revaluation) 1965 — Rate $20.00 1966 — Rate $22.60 1967 — Rate $21.60 We recommend caution in voting funds for the expansion of any Town Function not basically necessary. There are activities for which Tax Monies are appropri- ated yearly, which do not stand the test of Basic Need, and unless they are held strictly within bounds, they have a tendency to grow all out of proportion to their importance and become a burden on the average Tax Payer. Another Good Year in Valuation Gain. The total Real and Personal Property Valuation for 1967, was $45,705,330.00 - an increase over 1966 of $2,440,900.00. This yearly increase in the Valuation Base, mainly due to new construction, plays a vital part in cushioning the effect of yearly increased appropriations, to say nothing of the economic value to the Building Trades. Due to a number of favorable factors, such as Valu- ation Gain; minor increase in Net Amount To Be Raised (Total Tax Levy), etc., the Tax Rate for 1967 was set at $21.60 per thousand, a decrease of $1.00 per thousand from the 1966 Rate of $22.60 per thousand. Within a space of three years, by action of the Massachusetts Legislature, we have had mandatory expan- sion of Exemptions From Local Property Taxes, from a previous total of approximately $1,500.00 per year for Orleans, to $20,000.00 per year, representing the elimi- nation from Tax Revenue on Real Estate in Orleans in 13 excess of $900,000.00 in Valuation. The full impact of these Exemption Laws is yet to be felt. We are not questioning the merits of these Exemptions, but the reality of their existence must be faced in the Tax Structure. Your Board of Selectmen meet every day, and are always available to help you with any Town connected problem you may have. Respectfully submitted, ARTHUR R. FINLAY, Chairman GASTON L. NORGEOT DEAN K.

COWEN Treasurer 18 Report of the Board of Public Welfare It is common knowledge that the cost of Welfare has, and in all likelihood, will continue to increase. The number of recipients has increased, and the law provides for higher budgets. Nursing Home rates have advanced, as have the medical costs in all categories. Medicaid was initiated this year. Although the potential cost is high, twenty -one applications were approved since July 1, 1967, for which $1,542.70 has been expended. The assumption of all Welfare costs by the Common- wealth will mean that you will pay your share of this service through State taxation rather than the present method of Real Estate Taxes. This plan was designed to share the excessive Real Estate Tax burden of the cities with the smaller communities. We expect that sometime in 1968 the State takeover of Welfare will be accomplished. Following is a breakdown of payments: Old Age Assistance: Payrolls 26,263.49 Charged to Federal 13,500.00 Charged to State 8,933.92 Town Share 3,829.57 Aid to Families of Dependent Children: Payrolls 27,950.90 Charged to Federal 11,176.00 Charged to State 9,316.97 Town Share 7,457.93 Disability Assistance: Payrolls 3,200.58 Charged to Federal 1,700.00 Charged to State 699.89 Town Share 800.69 Medical Assistance: Total 27,062.20 Charged to Federal 13,531.18 Charged to State 8,789.34 Town Share 4,741.68 General Relief: Payrolls 2,576.44 Charged to State 515.29 Town Share 2,061.15 19 Administration: Salary, Director 6,180.00 Salary, B.P.W. 1,200.00 Travel 234.74 Office Supplies & Telephone 408.44 Dues 6.00 Federal Reimbursement 4,644.88 State Reimbursement 1,777.16 Respectfully submitted, GASTON L.

Substituted Public Health Nurse (Part -time) Miscl. for Public Health Nurse 5 -11. Added classification Assistant Librarian (Part -Time) Miscl. Substituted Police Chief 5 -18 for Police Chief 5 -17. Changed Annual Salary Schedule by raising the mini- mum two steps, adding one additional step increase, adding another compensation grade, and raising the maximum from $6,400 to $7,600. There were five positions re- classified under this schedule. Changed the Hourly Wage Schedule from a minimum of $1.67 to $2.15 and the maximum from $2.31 to $2.87. 21 Changed the Seasonal Wage Schedule from a mini- mum of $1.40 to $1.50 and the maximum from $1.90 to $2.00. Made various changes in annual and hourly rates in "Miscellaneous Compensation Schedule" to reflect the high- er rates in other hourly wage schedules. Changed the work week for the Custodial and Labor Groups from 45 hours to 40 hours. Respectfully submitted, RICHARD F. F.

D. Director Horse Subject: Report of the Director of Civil Defense. The Orleans Civil Defense Office has continued to improve the town safety potential against any results of attack or natural disaster. During the past year many meetings have been at- tended in reference to Government's new Community Pro- tection Plans, of which the town of Orleans will be a part. New buildings in the town have provided new "Shelters" of which many will be open to the public. Monthly radio drills with Sector C2 and other towns of the Cape are done on a regular basis. I wish to thank my staff and all town officials for their cooperation in the past year. Respectfully submitted, Ernest C.

I wish to thank the Honorable Board of Selectmen, the various Town Departments, and the Citizens of Orleans for their co- operation and assistance which has helped me very much in the discharge of my duties. Respectfully submitted, JOSEPH L. ROGERS, JR. Building Inspector 29 Report of the Board of Health During 1967, various clinics were held for immuni- zation and sodium- fluoride treatments. These are listed in detail in the Town Nursing Service Report. The management of the town disposal area is presently under consideration with a view to improving its care and maintenance. It is expected that improvement in this department will result. Regular inspections were made by the Barnstable County Health Department whose Sanitarians act for the town. No major violations of the sanitary code have been brought to our attention. During the year, the Town entered into an agreement for "Homemaker -Home Health Aid Service" with the Cape Cod Homemaker Service. This service provides trained aides to serve on home health aid assignments as required by the Public Health Nurse on recommendations of the doctor and has proved of value in carrying out the duties of our nursing service. The Town has been fortunate to obtain the services of Mrs. Lucy Jane Buckley as Physical Therapist and Mrs. Mary D. Chambers as Licensed Practical Nurse. Mrs. Marion I. Chace, Public Health Nurse and Mrs. Eleanor M. Higgins, Substitute Registered Nurse, have carried on with their accustomed efficiency. This year the Public Health Nurse Department has been very nearly self- supporting, due mainly to Medicare payments to the Town. Respectfully submitted, DEAN K. HOWERTON, Chairman ARTHUR R.

CHACE, Town Nurse 32 Report of the Highway Surveyor To the Citizens of the Town of Orleans: I hereby submit my report of the Highway Depart- ment for the year 1967. The heavy rains and wet weather in the spring did a lot of damage to the roads. One of the first projects of the Department was to help correct the rough condition at the Railroad Crossing in the center of town along with widening the entrance to the parking lot. Drainage has been installed on School Road, Cedar Land Road, Priscilla Road, Pine Road and Route 28. 1100 feet of resurfacing was done on Monument Road, 1300 feet on Beach Road, 1475 feet on Gibson Road and 950 feet on Priscilla Road. Under the sealcoating program, the following roads were treated: Cedar Land, Briar Springs, Shore View Drive, Uncle Harvey's Way, Cross Road and Tar Kiln. In closing I wish to thank the various town officials for their help and co- operation during the past year. Respectfully submitted, FREDERICK G. MAYO Surveyor of Highways 33 Report of the Conservation Commission The Conservation Commission was reactivated in Sep- tember of 1967. This report is not one of past deeds, but a look into the future activities of the Commission, and what we hope will be action taken by the Town in conserving and protecting the Town's most valuable natural resources rather than allowing them to be exploited or destroyed. By the law under which Conservation Commissions in Massachusetts are created, three main duties are set forth: 1. To conduct researches into local land areas. 2. To try to coordinate various interests and or- ganizations working towards the same goals. 3. To keep an index of all open areas including wet lands and Government owned lands within the Town borders. All of these duties are "For the promotion and development of the natural resources and protection of the water shed resources of the Town." Our first task, then, is to arrange for a complete soil plan map of the Town, which will consist of an aerial photograph, a general soil map and interpretive maps, showing area limitations and recommended uses of specific areas. In addition, a natural resources inventory would be prepared. These maps and inventory of natural resources in the Town are obtainable through the Barnstable County Con - servation District of the State Department of Natural Re- sources. The cost to the Town will be under $3,000. It takes at least two years to make them. Four sets of the maps would be prepared for this fee, and additional copies at small cost, would be available if required. Not only would these maps permit the de- velop our overall Conservation Program, and plans for future objectives, but other town departments would find this detailed information of great value — The Board of Health, The Building Inspector, The Planning Board, and the Selectmen. 34 The Commission, under law, has the privilege of accepting gifts of money, land, conservation easements, and other property. In this connection, we would be delighted to meet with anyone inclined to consider such action in aiding our effort to protect and preserve some of our Town's beautiful areas. The Commission is authorized to establish a Conser- vation Fund for use in acquiring land and for this pur- pose we intend to start such a fund by asking the Town for $15,000 now, and for operating expenses, $200 for 1968. Respectfully submitted, MALCOLM M. DICKINSON Chairman Report of the Harbor Master To the Honorable Board of Selectmen and the Citizens of the Town of Orleans: I hereby submit my report as Harbor Master. The Orleans Town Cove and Pleasant Bay have seen another busy season this year. The ramps at River Road and Jeremiah's Gutter were very heavily used. Rock Harbor ramp saw a large increase in usage. The Town is quickly running out of parking area for cars and trailers. We are in hopes of expanding some each year. No repairs were done at Rock Harbor, but we hope the State will start the work this year. Respectfully submitted, WARREN E. GOFF, Harbor Master 35 Report of the Park Commission To the Honorable Board of Park Commissioners: I herewith submit the Annual Report of the Park Department for the year 1967. Due to poor weather conditions this year, the attendance records fell off from the previous year in all areas. The work schedule in the Parks and Playgrounds have increased in the past few years, due to activities put on by the Recreation Committee, and added areas now being taken care of by this Department; the new Fire and Police Station grounds, the Elementary School grounds and the added area at Eldredge Field. Beach areas showed the greatest decline in attendance. The Income from Nauset Beach was as follows: Parking receipts, $24,774.00; Surf Board receipts, $1239.00; Con- cessions, $2,600.00; and Telephone Commissions, $97.48 for a total of $28,710.48. Beach Buggies passing the check point at Nauset Beach, during the season, totaled 5,929 vehicles; an average of about 50 per day. We hope in the near future to have proper facilities at Pilgrim Lake, and Nauset and Skaket Beaches, which is a must for the protection of Public Health and for sanitary reasons.

Services to and for you have greatly improved for your protection through the new facilities now available for your Fire and Rescue units to operate from. Drill and training space is now available for our use and is being used to the fullest extent. The Board of Engineers this year requested the re- placement of our 1940 Buffalo pumper. It has served us well these twenty seven (27) years but we now feel this truck can no longer be depended on in an emergency. The New England Fire Rating Bureau asked replace- ment of this Pumper in 1963 as at that time it could not pass the pumping capacity test. 37 We have hesitated on requesting this replacement due to other large Town expenditures but at this time we feel it most urgent that it be done in 1968. Also we ask the replacement of our 1959 Four Wheel Drive Jeep. This vehicle with its varied uses has proven itself over the last 8 years. This Jeep needs major repairs at this time. We feel expenditures would be foolishly spent on this vehicle. An explosive combination at any time is children and matches. In the past it has been one of the major problems of your Fire Department. Recent years have shown a sharp decrease in this problem. We feel one of the main reasons for this has been the Fire Prevention Programs in our schools. The children have learned not only the hazards of fire but also that prevention is a main factor for safety. This program initiated home inspections by the chil- dren and contests to see who could best write essays on Fire Prevention, Trips to the Fire Station to see equipment in action, plus refreshments has been the winners' reward. All in all we feel this program has made our children more responsible in the protection of life and property from fire. ` To the Officers and men of the Department as well as our Rescue Squad I express my appreciation and Thank you. Well Done. I wish to thank all Departments, Selectmen and Citi- zens of the Town for their cooperation and assistance given to Our Department during the past year. Respectfully submitted, LAWRENCE L. ELLIS, Chief Engineer 38 Report of the Police Department To The Orleans Board of Selectmen: I am very happy to report that the police facilities in the new fire and police building have more than proven the high expectations anticipated prior to our occupancy on January 11, 1967. I have noticed a marked increase in efficiency in all phases of my department's functions, and I feel we are in an excellent position to deal with the ever - mounting problems facing us now and those that will present themselves in the future. I can speak for each man of my department when I offer thanks to the Board of Selectmen, the Fire and Police Building Committee, (who donated so many tireless hours during the planning and construction of the building) and to each citizen of the town who voted their approval and confidence many times during the various phases which finally brought the building to its completion.

Town of Orleans Board of Selectmen Orleans, Massachusetts Gentlemen: It is a pleasure for those of us who serve on the Ambu- lance Association to represent our towns. We have meetings every other month and have had good attendance. During 1967 our ambulance traveled 16,373 miles and carried 297 patients with oxygen being administered a number of times. As in past years a number of the runs were to off -Cape points. The patients carried were distributed as follows Orleans 130 Eastham 40 Brewster 56 Other 71 The 71 patients identified as "other" represent mostly summer visitors and originated in the towns served al- though a few were courtesy runs for neighboring towns. We cover for neighboring towns when their ambulance is out of town and they do the same for us.

Unfortunately the site we had hoped for became unavailable. We have looked into several other locations, but costs were too high for our limited budget. We hope to find a permanent location, and build our garage in early 1968.? We have a request in the Warrant for an increase in our appropriations. This has become necessary by reason of increased cost in operating expenses. We would like to thank our many friends who have contributed donations to the Association. We have placed these funds in a special fund for the replacement of the ambulance. We have had many fine letters from patients carried or members a of their families, expressing their appreciation for the fine service offered and the courteous treatment by the men who serve on the ambulance. ineaollowing men give freely of their time to serve $36,719.52 0, as a Board of Directors for the Association: Harold M.

Livingston, President Warrenton A. Williams, Clerk - Treasurer 43 Annual Report of the Barnstable County Health Department To the Citizens Town of Orleans In 1967 we have observed a trend in more planning and working together of health related agencies and interested citizens on community problems. The confirmation of four cases of Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever received much attention. The leadership in the Health Services Community has taken the responsibility to put this in its proper perspective. A county -wide commit- tee of responsible agency and citizen representatives has been charged to define the problem and prepare recommen- dations for a sound and reasonable program to control wood ticks before the 1968 tick season starts. The Cape Cod Coummunity Council representing the health; education and welfare agencies sponsored an all day institute on health services in Barnstable Count ,,. Dr. Leona Baumgartner, visiting professor, Harvard Medical School, an internationally known public health expert was the key note speaker. This was a stimulating and beneficial program. On September 5, 1967, Governor John A. Volpe signed into law a requirement that all school children be immu- nized '< against smallpox, diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis, measles and polio unless exempted for medical or religious reasons. This bill was introduced by the Massachusetts De- partment of Public Health and endorsed by the Massachu- settslMedical Society. The law became effective December 4; 1967. As a result of state legislation, the Cape Cod Mental Health Area Board with 21 members has been appointed and has started its work. This group has been given great responsibility in studying, planning and producing services which will prevent emotional illness and help those mentally ill and afflicted with mental retardation. This is a responsible group of your representatives and you can expect encourag- ing results. The concern for continued provision of high quality Public health service is constant and requires study of needs and planning for necessary action. Some of the outstanding health needs are: 44 1. The extension of psychiatric service for chit and a beginning program for adults. Our adults must travel to Boston for limited out - patient services. 2. The need to make more effort to prevent denta caries (tooth decay), one of our important public healtl programs. The remedy, fluoridation, is safe, inexpensive an( easily administered. All we need is for the citizens to tak( steps to make this treatment available. 3. There continues to be a need for more plannin€ together and coordination of activities of all health relate( agencies in meeting community health needs. The Cap( Cod Community Council is the available instrument tha could be called on to give this leadership and service. 4. Need for attention to the many problems asso ciated with increased demands for clean public water supply and disposal of sewage and solid wastes. We see this re quiring all towns to formulate plans separately and coop eratively to meet the short and long term needs. 5. The need for a social case work service for the fam ily with multiple problems. 6. There is a serious need for upgrading salaries of th( professionals in order to keep and recruit necessary person nel. To maintain high standards of public health service we need a minimum number of highly qualified professions staff supported by trained health aides. This kind of plan ning is imperative to insure good service.

Governor Volpe, Lieutenant Governor Francis Sar- gent, Attorney General Elliot Richardson, and other dig- nitaries were present for the pre -game ceremonies that formally dedicated the new facility. Our summer program was completed on a successful note when a family picnic was held for all youngsters and their families who took part in the various summer programs and awards were presented. Boating classes were started on an informal basis for all youngsters who had completed instruction at the swim- mers level but not old enough to take part in the Jr. Life Saving Courses. Because of the interest that was shown we hope to set up a more formal small craft program this coming year. We welcome any further sug- gestions with a view to future improvements from you, the parents. We also would like to take this opportunity to thank all other Town Departments who took time to help us in many ways. Without your help we would not have enjoyed the success that we did. re areas of major concern to the commission which around the increase in youth population are: 1 tent of the Pilgrim Lake area to include a) acquir- acreage of land, b) put up a suitable bath house facility according to the recommendation which 48 will be made at Town Meeting by the Bath House Survey Committee. 2) Development of Town owned land, the `old Infirmary Lot" on Hopkins Lane for use as a recreational facility to include a)Little League Field, which the town is desperately in need of since presently 120 youngsters utilize the present Little League Field, b) playground areas to house both our boys' and girls' programs, c) playground apparatus, d) quiet games area, and e) multi - purpose courts.

Ellis, Chief of the Orleans Fire Department and to the Orleans Board of Selectmen: I hereby submit my report for the Rescue Squad for the year ending December 31, 1967. The past year the Squad has been engaged with train- ink,. teaching First Aid Classes, and responding to emer- gency calls. The following is a breakdown of our calls for the. year 1967: Automobile: Accidents 35 Accidents, other than Automobile 54 Ideart. ,. 20 Illness 16 Boat Runs 7 Standby. at Fires and Electrical Emergencies 10 50 Report of the Town Counsel To the Honorable Board of Selectmen and the Citizens of the Town of Orleans: I hereby submit my report of my activities as Town Counsel for the year 1967. I have been consulted by and have advised virtually all Town department officers and committees during the course of the year. I have appeared in the Superior Court and the District Court and have attended meetings and hearings in behalf of the Town. I once again wish to take the opportunity to suggest that the citizens of the Town consider most carefully all of the ramifications of the proposed changes in the form of Town government. I do not believe that the legal position of any citizen will be affected to any significant degree if such changes are adopted. The rights, duties and privileges of the citizens will not be altered as regards their individual capacities. However, any system that contemplates a Manager or Executive Secretary constitutes a delegation of authority and the concentration of power in an individual. This amounts to an abdication, in part, of the duty that every citizen has under our form of goverment, to control our government. If our present government is inefficient, and that has yet to be shown, the decision will have to be made as to whether greater efficiency is desirable for efficiency's sake alone. Theme are once again numerous changes in the Town's Protective By -Laws that merit careful consideration. I represented the Water Commissioners in the case of J. Gavigan Corporation vs. the Town of Orleans with co- counsel. The trial in Norfolk Superior Court resulted in a settlement of approximately one third of the Contractor's claim. There are two Superior Court cases and one defect in ways case pending, as is the resolution of the right of way of the Railroad. Respectfully submitted, PAUL P. HENSON, JR. Town Counsel 51 Report of the Shellfish Warden To the Honorable Board of Selectmen and the Citizens of the Town of Orleans: I hereby submit my report of the Shellfish Depart - ment. I am pleased to report that this year has yielded another fine crop of little necks in Big Pleasant Bay. Quahogs in all areas of Orleans grew exceedingly fast this year. I feel this is due to the large amounts of rain this summer. The average number of fishermen bull raking in the summer months was 22. The fall average has been 10 to 15. What happened to the scallops this year? Well, in February and March of 1967, if you remember, we had many; northeasters. The scallops at that time of the year are in a' dormant state due to the very cold water. The sand and mud are driven by the excessive winds and fill the insides of the scallop so full of sand that it can't close its shell to discharge the matter and dies. This is my own' personal theory. I have only observed this oc- currence, twice in my lifetime, but all facts lead to this rty bags of scallop shells were taken to Wellfleet his year.

The immediat needs were found to be as follows: I. The Bath House at Nauset Beach, which was barer adequate when it was built in 1961, is badly outgrown. 2. The Bath House at Skaket with only two toilets i wholly inadequate. 3. The beach at Pilgrim Lake has no toilet facilities at all 4. The facilities at Rock Harbor are for all intents ani purposes useless. 5. There are no public toilet facilities in the center of Town The most economical and satisfactory solution to a per tion of this over -all need, is, in the opinion of your Com mittee, as follows: 1. The Bath House at Nauset should be moved to Skake£ 2. The Administration Building at Nauset should be moved to Pilgrim Lake. 3. The Bath House at Skaket should be moved to Eldredg Field. - 4. A new, substantial building should be built at Nauset This proposed building should house not only mor; extensive toilet and dressing rooms, but should includ space for an administrative office and also a clothi " check room for the use of which a fee will be charged. 5. The Selectmen be authorized to appoint a Bath Hou Building Committee to carry out the recommendation' 6. As of the date of this printing, our plans regardi'' elaboration of the Rock Harbor facilities and of pull'„ toilet facilities in the center, either at the old Fire Hock or in Old Colony Way, near Main Street, are not f enough advanced for us to make a recommendation this time.
