Millard Term expires Sept. 1965 10 Report of the Board of Selectmen The Rock Harbor dredging project was completed in June. We are grateful to the Mass. D.P.W. and the contractors for completing the job in good time to our satisfaction. As we indicated in our report last year, we have estab- lished a site for a shellfish building at Herring fu urn will b- cayogansett Road. The building planned used for gear storage and shellfish larvaculture when it is authorized. Our monthly "Department Head" meetings are still prolife - ducing favorable results and have now become a way of providing better communications between all departments. This year at the request of the State Department we ex- panded our program to introduce our form of government to other countries. Participants were Memer o Jag BuOratl oki Guerrero and Abdul Tahir from the Philippines, from Nepal and Prapatpongs Bampensidh, Wimol Puantong and Phairat Decharin from Thailand. We cons;der it a privi- lege to have this opportunity to expend every effort to make our guests welcome and their visit worthwhile. Following is a typical reaction of our foreign visitors: "The two -week observation and study of local government practices in the Town of Orleans, Massachusetts, was one of the most useful programs I had in the United States. In view of my own work connected with elected local governments in Nepal, this study tour to that little town was very profitable. Although there are many differences in the structure between the Selectmen type of local government in Massachusetts and Panchayat system of local government in Nepal, yet the ob- servation of the local government in the Town of Orleans could give one an idea how much a local government could be effi- cient and effective in the development of their local communi- ties. What impressed me most was the high e units of loaal nation among different elective and appointive government in spite of their differences in social, economic and political backgrounds. M, the members Mr. Gaston of Selectmen, nd their friends Finlay, and colleagues, closely related with the work of the local gov- ernment, had been very cooperative, helpful and hospitable. 11 Many times, I felt guilty, that I was imposing too much on their busy schedule. I had wonderful experiences and would have missed a great deal, if my training officer had not ar- ranged this program." Expenses incurred are paid by the Federal Government. The By -Laws which we proposed and you adopted this year have been helpful in eliminating the so- called rowdy prob- lem. This past year was basically trouble free for which we are thankful. The first step in the investigation of our shellfish re- sources was accomplished this year. This program should be continued. This year we will slow down our pace because the Commonwealth is proceeding with an estuarian study of Pleas- ant Bay paid for by state funds and worth over $50,000. This study is a result of our efforts, and cooperation of the Division of Marine Fisheries. As a result of our request funds have been provided by Congress to commence the navigational study by the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers of Pleasant Bay. Thanks are in order to our Congressional delegation for their efforts on the Town's behalf. This study will represent over $50,000, and will require two years to complete. Our Town Hall staff members are busy all year and func- tioning well. Our thanks to them. We do not at this time anticipate the need for an increase of personnel. Our efforts to expand town landing areas have met with some opposition. The final decision properly, as in all town af- fairs, lies with the voter and we will continue to suggest im- provements for your consideration. Due to the rapid rate of growth of the Beach Buggies we are studying the need of expanded control. The Chatham Board of Selectmen are extending full cooperation. The Personnel By -Law has worked well but after a year of experience we recommend some changes which you will find in the 1965 Annual Warrant. Colony Way was completed for the summer season. as for landscaping were taken and implemented by a =d by Mrs. Thomas Whitbread. The result is a fine rea in the center of town which we can all enjoy for come. were pleased this year to have been invited to partici- United Nations Day at the Regional School. We also 12 participated in the first "Town Government Day," an effort to make our students aware of their responsibilities and rights, which was successful. School officials have indicated a desire to make this observance an annual affair. We were privileged to engage in assemlies to encourag responsibility to government in the Elementarysand1Parochial schools. The Architectural Advisory Committee continues to func- tion well and is being used by other towns as a model to im- prove the aesthetic assets of their communities. All instructions received from you by virtue of Town Meeting action have been carried out with the fine cooperation of Town Counsel. The Town Hall is used more each year by local citizens — hardly an evening passes that it is not being used. We will continue to improve the building as we have done in past years. We are called on to travel to many meetings on Cape Cod and Boston in carrying out our responsibilities. Selectman Arthur R. Finlay is the town representative to the Seashore Advisory Commission who are assisting the Park Service in creating the ultimate in seashore parks. We were again honored by receiving second prize in the Annual Town Report competition held by the Massachusetts Selectmen's Association. We propose to continue laying out town roads at an ex- panded rate until all roads are included. Our thanks to all the department heads and congratula- tions for the excellent cooperation and for a job well done. Your Board of Selectmen meet every day and are always available to help you with any town connected problem you may have. Respectfully submitted, RICHARD H. ADAMS, Chairman ARTHUR R. FINLAY GASTON L.

Clinics were held for many years and the administration of vaccine now appears to be a matter for private physicians. However, those who have not yet been immunized may call the town nurse and arrange for obtaining serum. Regular inspections were conducted by the Barnstable County Health Department, whose sanitarians act as our agents. There have been no serious violations of the health code. All food handlers have been extremely cooperative. Our efforts expended to begin a Clinic for Alcoholism were rewarded by its establishment this year. The clinic is state supported and county operated. Diphtheria, pertussis, tetanus booster clinics are held for kindergarten and first grade and diphtheria and tetanus clinics are conducted in the fifth grade. We have worked with school authorities to constantly improve nursing care at the local We have begun exploratory discussions with various en- eering companies to determine the need of plans for sewer - disposal.

Under state law we were required to adopt a Plumbing le and were able to establish a self- supporting course in mbing one evening a week at the Nauset Regional High tool. The course was designed to prepare working plumbers the journeymen's license examination in January.

In ts, report this committee's opinion was that a new combined ieadquarters was needed. In 1964 the Voters of the town (in Article No. 31) author - zed the Board of Selectmen to appoint a Building Committee ,o prepare preliminary plans for the proposed facility. The Needs Committee and Atty. Dean Howerton were so appointed. The task of the members as set forth in the article vas to prepare preliminary plans for a new facility; however ,ealizing that the site would have considerable influence on ;e design and layout, this matter was of prime importance.

Of these, 81 received their American Red Cross Swimming Certificates, with three earned Advanced Swimming Certificates. Twenty -nine of these young people also were awarded the Red Cross Life Saving Certificate. These classes were conducted at Pilgrim Lake and at the Barley Neck Town Landing on Meetinghouse Pond. The latter salt water area worked extremely well, though hampered a bit by the lack of a dock. The proposed launching ramp here, however, will, in all probability, eliminate this as a salt water instruction site. Our inability to attract a suitable instructor for the Small Boat Handling portion of the Water Safety course forced us to abandon this activity for 1964. This program will be included for 1965, however. The Tennis Program, with instruction held two afternoons a week for eight weeks, had a registration of 49 youths. Gail trathdee, our instructor, reported that all the youngsters attended regularly and were eager to learn the game. This agram is also included for 1965.

Since the spring of 1964, many changes have come to our waters and to the town. I will go into these changes briefly so you will know what has been done. First, we were very for- tunate in finding a marine biologist to do studies of our waters. The man is David Gates, a biology teacher at Nauset Regional. We worked together with Mr. Gates in all his work so as to benefit by it. We did a survey of the bottom of Big Pleasant Bay on quahogs to see what the concentration was there. We took square foot samples of the bottom in the concentrated areas all over the bottom. We took Salinity, pH and temperature of the water and found many areas where the quahogs were so thick they were in layers on the bottom. A copy of the Pleas - ant, Bay Shellfish Survey may be obtained at the Town Office. We transplanted 310 bushels of seed quahogs to different areas in the town that needed them. o we had an oyster project which turned out very well first year. We got a good amount of oyster spat from t and some from the State Division of Marine Fish - ho were very helpful to us, especially Jack Fiske, Divi- Marine Fisheries Biologist. I noticed along the shore caught some natural oysters but only in certain areas. speaking we have about 80 bushels of oysters that ;pawning for us in two years. had a very good year for clams, especially in Meeting liver, all of which were knee deep and deeper, taken ng with a coal fork or stone fork.

The regular meetings included 11 legal hearings on new subdivision applications wherein 172 lots were created. 34 plans (for the most part representing perimeter of property surveys) were signed Approval Not Re- quired On May 7, 1964 the Board reorganized and elected M. M. Gray, Jr. Chairman and J. William Costello, Vice - Chairman. Mr. Gray was authorized by the Board to sign all plans which would require no full Planning Board approval in lieu of sig- natures of a majority of the Board. Mrs. Eleanor H. Lund was elected Clerk of the Board. The Board continues its membership and support of the Cape Cod Association of Planning Boards and the Massachu- setts Federation of Planning Boards. The Board has received valuable but limited assistance this year from Mr. Charles E. Downs, our planning consultant for the past four years. It is the desire of the Board to con - finue`the consultant - client relationship with Mr. Downs as financial means through appropriation allow.

With the help of the Veterans' Administration staff and hat of the Commonwealth's Office of Veteran's Services, this (lice has been able to obtain various forms of assistance, not illy for veterans who have been or are in need but for those iho merely required help in completing forms, obtaining copies f'vital records and just plain facts. The importance of carefully preserving records of service, Honorable discharges, claim numbers, serial numbers, and so orth, must be stressed. Often, needed help is delayed while me is spent trying to round up these records. The best place 'or them is in a safety deposit box in your bank. At the least, photostatic copy should be on file in this office. Certain disabled veterans will be able in the year follow - ng May 1, 1965 to reinstate GI insurance which they had let apse, Full details and application forms should be available n April and every effort will be made to explain the program )f all veterans who may qualify.

These boats for commercial altPurposes which 11 purposes and 15 p elude commercial shellfishing and boat rentals. 93 The income of the Town of Orleans has been estimated to be 92 per cent from the vacation travel industry. The avail - ability of recreational boating has a tremendous impact upon the vacation travel industry in our town. This generates daily visitors who in part become weekly visitors who in turn become monthly visitors and in turn purchase property and construct summer residences in many instances with a view to eventual retirement. Specifically the official position of the Town of Orleans which has been agreed to by a unanimous opinion of a hearing held in the town on the 20th of August, and has been bolstered by the agreement of many other individuals is as follows: (First) The water in Pleasant Bay is becoming stagnant. It is becoming shoaler. It is becoming more restricted to navi- gation and becoming more detrimental to the growth of shell- fish which is virtually the only source of income to the town that is not directly attributable to the vacation travel industry. It is necessary and vital to the interest to the Town of Orleans to provide a stabilized ocean entrance to Pleasant Bay. There has been a noticeable reduction in the average water level in Pleasant Bay in recent years. To stabilize the ocean entrance in Pleasant Bay at a point northward of the present inlet at Chatham will provide an increased flow of water into Pleasant Bay. This will provide an average greater depth of water within the bay. This will provide an increased source s of food necessary for the growth of shellfish. y The recreational boating in the Town of Orleans is depend - k;ent upon greater availability of opportunity to use the waters of Pleasant Bay. It is dependent in large part on the mainte- nance of navigable passageways between Pleasant Bay and Sound. The controlling depth of channels from the ocean and from antucket Sound to all parts of Pleasant Bay should be a mini um of 6 feet. This will provide all -tide access to the bay for e vast majority of pleasure boats currently used in this area. is will provide access to all parts of Pleasant Bay for the ats currently engaged in sport fishing and commercial fish - g- 94 issued 1,492 commercial and family shellfish permits.

Boats with 3 feet or greater draft can only effectively use the waters between Pleasant Bay and Meeting House Pond at half tide or better. To provide 6 foot channels from the ocean and Nantucket Sound will make available full -time, all -tide navigation in Pleasant Bay. The finest sport fishing grounds on the coast of America lie just to the eastward of this part of Cape Cod. The richest commercial fishing grounds in the Atlantic Ocean lie just to the eastward of Cape Cod. There is no adequate harbor of ref - uge between Provincetown, 30 miles to the north, and the har- bors on the south side of Nantucket Sound 25 miles south and west from the Orleans- Chatham town line. Stabilized entrances into Pleasant Bay will provide such a harbor of refuge. For commercial fishermen, sport fishing and larger yachts the value of the safety factor for the boating public can not be estimated in dollars. The potential value to the communities bordering Pleasant Bay from all sorts of boating activity whether commercial fishing, sport fishing or strictly pleasure has been estimated to be at least double the present value � provide a controlled passage from Pleasant Bay to ;ket Sound will be to make Pleasant Bay available for many thousands of boats not now able to use the same he consequent increase to the commercial interests of ,vns of Chatham, Harwich and Orleans. If such a passage uaranteed many boats would be based upon Pleasant .at can not now effectively use Pleasant Bay because of ngers attendant upon passing the treacherous waters omoy Point. ie Town of Orleans provides 12 town landings available general public for access to Pleasant Bay. Five of these landings are only usable because of channel shoaling tide or better to boats drawing more than 18 inches er. Two of these landings are usable by outboards or draft vessels only at high tide. - sere are two commercial boat yards with marine rail - n the Town of Orleans on Pleasant Bay —one currently ' 16 row boats, 8 sail boats and 102 motor boats using ilities; the other having 10 row boats, 21 sail boats and for boats using its facilities on a daily basis. Largely )oats are owned by persons not having water front prop- 96 erty of their own. Of the 800 boats now using Pleasant Bay in Orleans roughly 60 per cent are owned by water front owners and the balance by those gaining access through Town landings and boat yards. There are two other boat enterprises, renting row and sail boats to customers. There are approximately 200 transient row, sail and motor boats well as an nn timatedsnumber of daily summer weekend, as daily users. s There are four boys and girls summer camps which feature sail and boat training as their major program on the shores of Pleasant Bay. The sailing programs of at least two of these camps are curtailed to the extent that the waters are becoming usable only at half tide or better. There is one yacht club in Orleans upon Pleasant Bay which for the last four years has had to schedule races and its junior training program based upon the height of the tide.` Historically since 1602 the ocean entrance to Pleasant Bay has been located from northeast of Strong Island as far south as the present location. This location has changed from time to time generally opening to the north and moving southerly. Historically there have been so- called cut - throughs from Nantucket Sound and /or Stage Harbor to Chatham Harbor more years than there have not. The Town of Orleans will make available to the Corps of Engineers any and all records and reference material including shellfish surveys, salinity tests, assessors records, public access data and any other information useful and desired by the Corps. In summary, Pleasant Bay is becoming more shoal, more stagnant and more inaccessible from open water as each day goes by all to the detriment of the entire li for boating, osa l sailing cial fishing, shellfishing, sport fishing, and all the traditional uses to which the American public puts its waterways. To stabilize and to provide adequate channels will not only restore but increase the present use and make available for profit and enjoyment the waters of Pleasant Bay to the ever increasing number of permanent residents and summer and year -round visitors to the Cape Cod Area. Respectfully submitted, PAUL P. HENSON, JR. 97 Report of the Waterways Improvement Committee To the Citizens of the Town of Orleans: This is a report of the Waterways Improvement Commit - tee appointed under Article 31 of the Annual Town Meeting, March 14, 1960. During the year Mr. Howard Rogers resigned from the Committee and Mr. Sidney Robinson was added to it. Meetings of the Committee have been held here periodically with the public in attendance from time to time expressing their views upon the Committee's project. There were many improvements needed to our waterways the Town of Orleans just to maintain them at status quo. e population explosion is such that we are going to have to itinue the development of our waterways in order that our n citizens may have use of them, to say nothing of the vis- rs to our Towns. We have inserted Articles in the Town xrant to improve the parking at the Cove Road Town Land - adjacent to the Yacht Club and for the installation of ders at the Rock Harbor Docks. We feel that this is a safety isure. The present ladders are of various design and degree onstruction. These should be made uniform and safe for persons who use them. We have inserted an article in the -rant for paving the parking lot at Rock Harbor. This most ular landing spot and tourist attraction needs continuous k on it. We support the article that the Harbor Master Selectmen have inserted for renewing and refurbishing wiring for the electric lights and navigational lights at [ere is an article in the Town Warrant to instruct the ien to ask the Public Access Board to improve the land - Barley Neck Road and Meeting House Pond. It is the of this Board that this larly to make safe the entrance f from Barley Neck Road. ,refore believe that the access, parking and the pier be constructed whether or not the Public Access Board e work. We believe that this landing will have its prin- e as a neighborhood swimming area and a spot where 3ople, residents of the Town who own boats and do not iterfront property of their own, can keep their skiffs ghys to go back and forth to their boats that will be ^ings in Meeting House Pond. 98 This Committee has studied the problems of access to leasant waterways of the Town from the fresh water ponds and the Bay, Town Cove, Cape Cod Bay, the r s Atlantic Ocean. This access is studied from the point of view a of access for boating and access for swimming. need for additional access for boating in all the areas of the Town with the exception of the Atlantic Ocean. This will be solved as a result of the study now being made by the Army Engineers in Pleasant Bay and we hope in the future, for the Town Cove. There is an unquestioned need for an access for swimming purposes in all the water areas of the Town includinmprovint lantic Ocean. This access can be provided largely by g the existing landings; however, in Pleasant Bay there is prac- tically is area where supports he Art tiles in the Warrant for or the' fore this Board open the Town on Route 28 and Pleasant acquisition t property by Bay, property now or formerly of Miss Rogers, Mr. Poor and Mr. Earle.

The Finance Committee has asked us to prepare for them a list of major improvements that will bet requ5,000 yard. Town in the future. These follow : App of dredging to provide aoximately 200,000 yards of dredging w the Town Cove. App within the Town of Pleasant Bay to provide an adequate than. nel from Meeting House Pond, Loonies Pond, Paw Wah, Arey'I and Quonset Ponds to deep water in big Pleasant Bay.

We are talking here of a prof, to be protected by jointly sponsored and paid for by the Towns of Eastham, leans, the of the shore protection h protection featur sof the project, and the Fed government. This is a very long range project and undoubt 99 would cost several million dollars. More immediately there is a need for enlarged parking facilities, a bulkhead and dredg- ing at the Town Landing at the Town Cove at Jeremiah's Gutter. This and the River Road Landing which needs to be enlarged have proven to be our most popular access points to water in the Town for those people who trailer their boats. If the pier at the head of the Town Cove at the end of Cove Road by the Yacht Club is to be rebuilt, there should be a dredged basin and parking area with a retaining wall or bulk - head and a pier of a permanent nature constructed. There needs to be established on Pleasant Bay within the Town at some location, at sometime in the future, a launching facility and a swimming area. Perhaps this in some fashion could be worked into the west side of Pleasant Bay at Route 28, if the Town acquires that property. There follows a report prepared by the Town for the hear - ing of the Army Engineers as to the navigational needs study now being conducted in Pleasant Bay. PAUL P. HENSON, JR.

There have been periodic flushings of all dead -ends, also. In the fall the grounds at the Wellfield entrance were beau- tified with small evergreen trees and, with the new water de- partment sign in place, the approach to the property has been greatly improved. Several acres of land adjacent to the pump- ing station and garage have been cleared by the department of underbrush to help in reducing forest fire hazard. Some 200 Japanese pine seedlings were purchased through the Tree Warden and set out along the banks of the driveway into the Wellfield. It is expected that from time to time more trees will be planted throughout the watershed area. In May a dual service was put in at Young's Fish Market and Rock Harbor Dock for the Town of Orleans, at a total cost of $246.65. There have been two cranberry bog sprinkler systems added to our water system, which will add considerable revenue to the department, due to the quantity of water which will be used. We expect there may be more of these installations as time goes on, as they have proved their worth to the owners of bogs during the 1964 drought. The two bogs which were flooded last year, for the safety of our young citizens for skating purposes, have been flooded again this ,year. We hope they will be used and enjoyed by the young people, as well as others who may wish to take advan- tage of safe skating areas. An easement has been obtained from Reuben S. Hopkins at his Rosilla Road development off Hopkins Lane, in order that the Town Water System can tie in with existing mains ' and make for better circulation. The tie -in has already been made from Cranberry Road to Rosilla Road in the Hopkins de -' velopment, thus doing away with one of the "dead- ends ". Other such easements will be requested by the department wherever a tie -in can eliminate a dead -end and furnish better circulation for the system. The new truck is proving its worth by cutting down on the heavier operating expense of the large truck, in doing the "running- around" jobs. It has also speeded up meter reading, and will help greatly in the meter removal and meter installa- tion periods. In May final settlement was made with E. Susi & Williams Corp. for their part of the contract for laying of mains and house services in the Town of Orleans. We are sorry to have 107 to report at this time that the final settlement has not yet been accomplished with J. Gavigan Corp., due to various reasons. We hope this can be settled in the near future. At this year's Town Meeting we are asking for $5,000.00 for improvements of the system. This will be used for elimi- nation of "dead- ends ", wherever possible, and will also enable us to locate hydrants and hydrant gate valves, for better fire protection on both town and private extensions. Your Commissioners are very much concerned about the tampering with the hydrants on Halloween night. Damage to municipal property is a grave offense, and under certain con- ditions this tampering could endanger many homes and busi- nesses, as well as other property in the town. We strongly enlist the support of all citizens to report any tampering with hydrants promptly to the police or to the Water Department, so that immediate action can be taken. It could be your house that is burned due to lack of pressure in the mains during a fire. The Commissioners held twenty -two regular meetings and three special meetings during 1964. We wish to express our appreciation to the takers, who were inconvenienced when it was necessary to turn the water off for a period of time when cutting in for additional services or repairing of mains, for their patience and consideration. We also wish to take this opportunity to express our sin- cerest appreciation to other Cape Cod Water Departments, to all the Town Departments and Town Personnel, and residents for their continued cooperation and help. Respectfully submitted, HERBERT F. WILCOX, Chairman RAYMOND E. NEWTON, Clerk ROGER F. SMITH Board of Water Commissioners 108' This year the Librarian embarked on a ass major program and of cataloging, recataloging, classifying, weeding every single item on the shelves and in the card files. Thanks to a dedicated, loyal, and tireless group massive task volunteers, about the Friends of the Snow Library, this one -third complete. There is ample evidence that Townspeople are making greater and greater use of the library facilities. Circulation for the year 1964 was 22,944, an average of 23 per open hour, day in and day out. During the summer months this circulation figure increased to 53 per open hour. For the year as a whole circulation increased 12 %; for the months of September through December (a better indication of permanent resident use) circulation was up 47% over 1963. The number of persons who borrowed books in 1964 was 1153, considered in library circles a phenomenal proportion of the census population even for a resort community. During the year 1720 books were added to the library's collection, while at the same time just over 2,000 were weeded out and discarded as obsolete or an unnecessary duplication. In the summer time circulation more than doubles, and a large share of this increase is due to the use of the library by the children and grandchildren of summer residents and visitors. This year emphasis is being placed on the inception of a program for improvement and expansion of the Children's Wing. In order to secure the much needed assistance of our summer residents and visitors in this endeavor a new organi- zation, Friends of the Children's Wing, Snow Library, is con- templated. If the following letter (quoted in part) is in any way typical, we can be sure of parental support. "I would like to comment upon the gentle and cour- teous treatment I and my children received while on summer vacation in Orleans ... Your librarians were eminently qualified in their positions and helpfully courteous in the administration of that capacity. My children and I would like to thank you ...' Comments such as this are a real stimulus to the endeav- ors of the Librarian, Staff, Friends, and Trustees. Respectfully submitted, MARY LOU DELANO S.

We strive to hold the vclume of our reports down to a minimum and this appeared the most logical approach to the problem in view of the greatly increased number of accounts under the segre- gated budget as voted this year. Budgets for the year of 1965 have been prepared under the same breakdown as employed in 1964, except that the two items of "Contractual Services" and "Other Expense" have been combined under one heading of "Expense." This should prove a help to both the department heads and our depart- ment in classification of payments. 142 The year of 1964, with the changeover to the new budget format has been confusing to all of us, however, with this experience it should be easier for all concerned in this new year Your Town Accountant wishes to express his thanks to you and to all heads of departments for the cooperation shown in getting this new system functioning.

Financially: population is going up• Costs are going up. The school pop No end is in sight. These facts are not peculiar to Orleans. They are true all over the United States. We can complain but the facts won't go away. Nor is there really much cause its rtaxcomplaint. venuesl on 9 is Orleans spent only about r s of schools.

And it is always misleading to try to equate the quality of education with tax dollars. Another statistic reveals that we spend time. Is more money on educating each child than most other towns do. This fact has been true of Orleans for a long ruth the act to cost shamed schools can bey summarized tsimply: The whole well afford to main- b a its goo s Orleans ystem a d that s what Orleans has always tried to do. 2.

If our school pop at the rate of the past decade, we shall have to begin pla ning for an addition in the next couple of years. The lull it see circumstance is not the physical size of the classrooms give a teacher no more than twenty -five pupils; the teaching load for each teacher. Educationally wise tog For a child to run: we are trying to maintain this policy. less than one. /twenty -fifth of a teacher's attention is to the child. Indeed, modern education seems to call 211 smaller and more flexible groupings than the standard class - room-by- grade. When we face the actual need for an addi- tion we may well find that we need more teachers than classrooms. 3. Scholastically: The usual way to measure the excellence of a school is to compare it with similar schools in similar communities. By Cape Cod standards Orleans can be pleased. But we are not sure that this comparison offers enough of a challenge. M' Historically Cape Cod has been a rural and resort area. Now it is changing. We think that we must prepare our children for lives and jobs and responsibilities far beyond the histori- cal frontiers of the Canal. And in no field has there been more new thinking than in education. Our job calls for an awakening within the school system itself, in teachers and the administrators and the school committee and the com- munity which pays the bills, to an awareness of the great new educational energies of today. New ideas which have come to us from the outside and which are now proving their solid educational worth in our classrooms include the Joplin reading plan, the New Math, early testing and early place- ment and flexible replacement, upgraded groupings and teaching by television. It is in this direction, outward and upward, that our school system must move. To this end we bring experts to stimulate and assist our teachers. We send our teachers and administrators to other places for conferences and seminars. We cast a cold eye on every subject taught, and a warm eye on every teacher who wants to improve the teaching. We have joined the Cape Cod Community Council in the hope of mobilizing all public agencies which work with children and getting more personnel and services for the children of the Cape. We have stocked an excellent school library with selected new books which the youngsters seem to love. We have teaching programs in association with the Cape Cod Museum of Natural History, the Audubon Society and the Massachusetts Department of Education's "Twenty -one Inch Classroom ". All this has a single intention: to give every child in Orleans the best education he can take, to prepare him for the intricate world he will inherit. Once more the school committee wishes to point out that the public schools belong to the public. School com- mittee meetings are open. Every citizen is entitled to attend these meetings and, in parliamentary fashion, to participate. Nor is the participation of citizens in school affairs confined 212 to attendance at committee meetings. No parent must ever feel embarrassed or afraid to communicate with a teacher or the principal or the superintendent or a committee member. If our schools fail their duty to so much as one child, we have failed our full responsibility. Respectfully submitted, JAMES L. BABCOCK JAMES B. MELCHER, JR. FREDERICK P. ROGERS, M.D. ORIN TOVROV EVERETT C. WINSLOW, JR. Report of the Superintendent of Schools To the Orleans School Committee: Over the past five years the number of Orleans pupils in grades K -12 of the public schools has increased 33 %. More than three- fourths of this growth has been in grades 7 -12, as the postwar babies have moved up through the secondary school. At present there is about the same number of Orleans pupils in grades 7 -12 at Nauset Regional High School as there is in grades 1 -6 at Orleans Elementary School. This may lead one to think that a "bulge" has gone through the grades, and, therefore, that our school facilities should be adequate for a time. But, there is no indication that the number of new families moving into the community will decrease. There are 50 more Orleans pupils in the public schools than there were a year ago, and the total number of Orleans pupils now (public and private) is more than 40% greater than the num- ber of births recorded in Orleans for the birth years of these IWO pupils. In other words, our growth has been steady, and, unless something unusual happens, it will move steadily upward for some time to come. The result is that Orleans, along with communities everywhere —but particularly. along with Eastham, Wellfleet, and possibly Brewster —will be faced with the question of additional school facilities, first at the sec - „ ondary level, and then the. elementary. 213 In two or three years Nauset will reach its capacity, Whether or not the present tuition -pupil policy is continued. Brewster lto the Region, lothe need or new construction is ontin would d. be immediate. fairly optimum but we shall haver tormake alcarefullpredics tion of our growth each year. of c st eand here ag rices may look to the past for forecast. During the same five -year period that our enrollments were increasing by 33%, the net cost to the taxpayers for schools increased by 3676, and the percentage of taxes for schools decreased from 48 to 43. Meanwhile, capital costs for both high and elementary schools were being amortized, and the quality of the educational program was being improved, as the accompanying reports of members of the staff will attest. Meeting the problems we face inevitably will require a larger school tax, but an alternative is scarcely conceivable. As a New York Times editorial puts it national task is m improve "The most urgent invest sufficient m" education. A nation that will not oney in its children is a nation that is writ- ing off its future. In keeping with custom the following table of operating cost information is presented.

PIERCE Report of the Elementary School Principal I� Dear Mr. Pierce: Through you I submit my annual report as principal of the Orleans Elementary School. ire opened school September ninth this year. There was one change in the staff: Mrs. Elizabeth Rattle came to teach one division of grade four replacing Mrs. Virginia Lennox who is teaching in New York State. rac- It was decided to extend present organizational last June. tices after careful evaluation of the year closing four science c n additions to the two hdivisions i 1 of grade race science. Mrs. Rattle and Mrs. Skinner also crossed a g set- line, teaching study skills and music to a fifth grade respect- line, ively. 215 The two groups in grade one exchange rooms while one teacher teaches music the other extends the reading period with story telling and poetry. The two divisions of grade two exchange teachers for two periods a week. Miss Keefe teaches formal handwriting and music while Miss Abbot teaches creative writing. In grade three the two divisi � ons exchange rooms. One teaches teaches the spelling skills program while the other teacher is responsible for the handwriting program. To date the changing classes and teachers in the first three grades has been a most satisfactory procedure. Both pupils and teachers appear to have accepted the challenge and there is a greater co- operative sharing of experiences. We were all very pleased to welcome Mrs. Wordell on a full time basis at the elementary level. We now have art, vocal music, and physical education scheduled with regular weekly visits to each classroom by the special teacher in each field. Then there is daily follow -up carried on by the home room teacher under the guidance of the special subject in- structor. In addition to the basic music program a chorus has been formed. This is selective and provides enrichment experiences beyond the basic classroom course of study. National School Lunch week was observed October 11 -17 Open House was held for the parents of first grade children and for parents of new children who have enrolled in the school for the first time this school year. We know that some were disappointed by the increased enrollment needing exist- ing facilities and space necessarily limited out invitations. National Education Week was observed at the Elementary Building November 9. Parents were invited to visit their child's classroom, meet the teacher, and observe the materials an display. Materials included pupil's work, shedules of classes, and concrete materials used in teaching. Mrs. Con- stance Newell, first grade teacher, explained the new mathe- matics as she instructs her first graders. Miss Abbott, a second grade teacher, explained creative writing and how it is taught in grade two. It seemed that the open house was most well attended and the participants enthusiastic about the good work being done by the staff of teachers. It has been said that all the good and all the ills of American society are reflected in the classroom. Through a co- operative process which recognizes the worth of every in- dividual, the contributions of the home on one hand and 216 the contributions of teachers, administration, and school com- mittee on the other can be the steps which will effect a cure for the. ills. In this way we come to grips with the divergencies and care for each on the strength of its merit. the interest and l citizen for confidence You show in our school.

This new mathematics program is concept - orientated and emphasizes understanding of the underlying patterns, relationships, concepts, and principles inherent in our mathematical system. The method is a shift through from "memorization of facts" and "rules" to learning to the t aching . guided discovery. It is felt that this app of mathematics is fulfilling the growing need for an effective modern mathematics program in the elementary grades. This program has come about through two years of teacher prepa- ration; a two week summer workshop conducted in 1962 and an In - Service Program held last year from October through May. Continuing teacher education is being carried out throughout this school year as the faculty is periodically view- ing a series of teacher - training films which offer assistance in classroom presentation. Starting February 1st an In - Service Course in Natural Science is being offered to the staff. Marshall Case, Curator of the Cape Cod Museum of Natural History, will conduct a series of eleven lectures and two field trips. In conjunction with this program Mr. Case will set up a Nature Trail on the grounds of each of our elementary school. We must begin early to - emphasize the necessity of conservation, for this is one of r more articulation between the e ementaryf and secondary schools. Some steps have already been taken in this direc- tion and we look forward to continuation of this close assoc- iation with Nauset Regional High School. readingMMERc ion was offered last summer to those students of Orleans and Eastham Elementary Schools whom the school felt would benefit from extra guidance. Mr. Anthony Peters of San Bernadino, California, who has had much experience working in similar programs on the west coast, conducted the program. Daily sessions were held for a period of six weeks. Thirty-seven pupils participated in the program, eight of whom were from Eastham. Two Remedial and two Improve- ment classes were held daily. It is strongly recommended to continue this program next summer for it was well received and proved to be beneficial to the students, not only in the strengthening of reading skills, but in the restoration of con- fidence, without which little learning can take place. We are grateful to Mr. Peters for the creditable job that he did and hope to secure his services for the coming summer program. 218` A Speech Clinic for pupils of school Union #54 was held at the Eastham Elementary 'School during the month of August. We were fortunate indeed to secure the services of such well - qualified Speech Clinician as Mrs. Diane Rose to conduct this Clinic, particularly as the Cape has no facilities to offer children having speech difficulties. Twenty - seven children attended the Clinic - six from Wellfleet, seven from Eastham and fourteen from Orleans. It is hoped that Mrs. Rose will be able to continue the program this coming summer. The Orleans Elementary School Library was kept open this summer for its fourth season. It is gratifying that Mrs. Quinn's statistics show almost a doubling of the number of volumes taken out over last year. Increased interest of our own pupils and summer visitors as well was also noted. Starting January 1965 Wellfleet's School Library will be serviced by a librarian. This service will enable the Wellfleet pupils to have the strong recreatory reading program that has been made possible in Orleans and Eastham. We are appre- ciative to the School Comittees for their generous support in encouragement and provision of such well - equipped libraries. SUPERVISORY PERSONNEL —We are grateful that the elementary schools are well - staffed in Art, Music and Physi- cal Education. Starting this year these Supervisory Teachers are all devoting full time to the elementary schools. We recog- nize the tremendous responsibility that is ours in helping to foster the cultural values of the next generation. Youth, like springtime, is the best time to plant seeds. We hope to culti- vate creativity, imagination, resourcefulness and an apprecia- tion for the beauty in life. We are proud of the splendid pro- grams offered by our Supervisory Teachers and consider them to be an intergral, vital part of our total curriculum. TESTING PROGRAM —No major changes were made in the objective testing program this year. Achievement tests were administered to all grades in May and mental abilities tests were administered in kindergarten classes in May: Grade III and Grade Vl in October. The elementary supervisor ad- ministers all individual mental ability evaluations upon recommendation by the classroom teacher. Forty - five such evaluations were made during the past year. The elementary supervisor also holds conferences with teachers, principals, school nurses, parents, as well as profes- sional people outside of the school system as part of her res- ponsibility in guiding the elementary school program. Records show that participation in approximately forty parent - con- ferences alone was made this past year. 219 PROFESSION CONFERENCES —Among the many profes- sional meetings and conferences that it has been my privi- lege to attend during the past year, I should like to mention two which I consider to have been of particular value. 1. The National Education Association Regional Con- ference on Instruction held in Boston, November 11 - 14. Theme: Teaching in an Age of Discovery. 2. National Council for the Social Studies, 44th Annual Meeting, held in St. Louis, Missouri, November 25 - 28. Theme: Critical Issues in American Life and the Social Studies. These conferences were attended by members selected from the teaching staff and it is my hope that more parti- cipation by teachers in professional meetings and confer- ences will be made possible in the future. IN CONCLUSION —Thi humbleness as I s report is submitted with great supervisor i , consider the obligations of the elementary n 'guiding the elementary school program to be a- grave responsibility. In this age of s all pray for the wisdom to provi hifting values we must de the best climate possible for the greatest natural resource of all: our youth. Respectfully submitted, BARBARA -N.

Report of the Physical Education Supervisor To the Superintendent of Schools: I hereby submit my ninth annual report as Supervisor. of Physical Education in School Union #54. The results of the work of the Physical Education program has been very encouraging to me this past year. The enthus- iasm and interest of the pupils has not only motivated them to a greater awareness of physical fitness, but has been car- ried into the homes to motivate their parents. I have had several requests to start "Slim Gym" classes. Last February, the Orleans P. T. A. asked me to put on a demonstration of a typical physical education class. This was done, by having the fifth and sixth grade girls and boys, with student leaders in charge, demonstrate to music marching tactics, calisthenics and square dancing. A relay race ended the program. I attended the first two - day Massachusetts Health, Phys- ical Education and Recreation Association Convention, which was held in Boston last April. I wish to thank the School Committes for giving me the opportunity to attend as it was most instructive and inspiring. After hearing about the difficulties other school systems have with their Physical Education Programs, especially the problem of getting the communities, school committees and superintendents sympa- thetic to the program, I am greatly thankful for the support given to our program. A very successful playday for the fifth and sixth grade girls from Wellfleet, Eastham and Orleans was held in May to celebrate Physical Fitness month, as proclaimed by Gover- nor Peabody. Approximately one hundred girls met in the 222 Orleans gymnasium shortly after two 0'0100" refreshmentS nand to get acquai ed with each other. They woere then placed on color teams for volley ball and softball. All grads in the union ended or the fifth and sixth with field day activities.

I respectfully submit them as a portion of this report. Respectfully submitted, FRANK B. JAMES, x Report of the School Physician Orleans School Committee Orleans, Massachusetts Gentlemen: Healthwise this has been a good year for the Orleans Elementary School. As usual there were several mild epidemics of upper res- piratory infections and a few cases of pneumonia. German measles was rampant for awhile but not severe in character. This epidemic was prevalent up and down the East Coast. - One clinic was held for D.P.T. and D.T. and approximately ninety to one hundred youngsters received injections. Approximately ninety youngsters also received physicals this year. Nothing of grave consequence was found. We certainly are not finding the physical defects of yes - teryear. I still maintain that better pre and post natal care me is a great factor in this regard. res our I reiterate again that we should be g proud of the work ru- that Mrs. Reed is doing in her Physical Fitness program. Not ru- only is she achieving results on a broad scale but she is also the doing corrective work. Mrs. Reed is to be commended for her )wn� excellent work. im Respectfully submitted, rom JOSEPH N.
