Peterson Water Superintendent Deport of Selectmen The Main Street drainage project started in the fall of 1961 was completed in the late spring of this year. A few months later, the funds having been provided at the annual meeting, a contract was let and construction was started on a municipal water system. Projects such as these do, we realize, cause some inconveniences while they are in progress, but once the scars of construction are healed and the benefits of the projects are being realized the minor inconveniences are soon forgotten. Several small drainage problems were taken care of during the year by the installation of pipes and catch basins, the work being done by the Highway Surveyor and his crew. Sometimes it would seem that the old time offices -such as Pound Keeper and Fence Viewers were out of date in this modern age, but twice within the lastfour years wehave had to call on the Fence Viewers to settle boundry disputes between neighbors, this they did promptly, and to the satisfaction of all concerned. During the summer it became evident that the speed of cars traveling late at night was far above the safety point. At the suggestion of the Selectmen the Police Department established a speed squad In an attempt to curb this Iate night excessive speed. it proved so successful that an amount has been included in the new budget to continue this program. We wish to commend the regular and special officers who took part in this program. The Town operated information booth with Mrs. Ruth Finlay and Mr. Ernest Cullom as attendents had a verybusyseason. There-were 27,598 persons who took advantage of this facility and the majority commented on their appreciation of this type of function. The money appropriated at the last annual meeting for dredging at Rock Harbor is being held pending the assignment of an engineer to the project by the Waterways Division of the Department of Public Works. Old Colony Way (so- called) which will be a Chapter 90 road, mas have to be delayed until 1964 in order that sufficient money may accumulate in the Chapter 90 account to properly build this road. We would feel remiss in our duty if we did not inject a word of caution into this report. Caution against spending for outlays that can be. delayed without harming the efficiency of any department. Caution against voting for articles that call for things we would like to have but that are not of immediate necessity. We. are faced this year with several ' unavoidable expenditures of large amounts and in order to keep the tax within reasonable bounds we must get along without the frills. We wish to thank all the various Town Departments for their co- operation throughout the year. Respectfully submitted FRANKLIN S. MURRAY ARTHUR R. FINLAY RICHARD H.

Selectmen of Orleans 27 r,,.i ,J i r n v �M: 5r`iir r; y` 1 5tl III� ri' yl ?? i �SjS 1-1 g Report of Insect Pest Control To the Honorable Board of Selectmen: A complete spraying program of a combination of D.D.T. and methoxychlor for the control of elm bark beetles. Several cover sprays with an insecticide known as Sevin for the leaf eating insect on all the trees including elms, has been carried out This same program will be followed for the year 1963. Pine looper in Orleans has not been too serious in recent years due to the persistant spraying to keep this infestation from spreading. Japanese beetles have been found in several small areas and were sprayed with an insecticide called Sevin with excellent results. It is very important that anyone using any pest control materials follow directions exactly as printed on the label. People are worrying needlessly It is impossible for any chemical manufacturer to market a product without having made exhaustive laboratory and field tests of the produce, andali of the information must be passed by governmental agencies before any product can be placed on the market. A marine biologist, Miss Carson, wrote "The Sea Around Us" with obvious love. It is an outstanding work, but in "The Silent Spring" we 'feel that she has found an issue which whe has over - embroidered and over - sentimentalized. While she points out the dangers of which we should be aware, hers is a one -sided viewpoint. The author gives the impression that scientists, especially those who have been involved I, pest control research, are a radical non - thinking, irresponsible group. This is not so. Those of us who have been in close touch with Dutch Elm disease cannot help but feel that Miss Carson has greatly over-exaggerated the harm that spraying has done to birds. Sometimes a few birds have been killed, but birds have not been eliminated from whole communities where elms were sprayed. A State pesticide control board has been set up to investigate the licensing and operation of all who apply pesticides. This will help in eliminating all inexperienced and untrustworthy operators of pesticides. Respectfully submitted, EMILE A. OLLIVIER Insect Pest Superintendent 2s Shellfisb Constable's Report To the Honorable Board of Selectman and the Citizens of the Town of Orleans: hereby submit my report of the Shellfish Department for the year 1962' Shellfish .anded commercially in 1962; .7,728 Bu. Quahaugs (Rock Harbor` $62,044.00 3,840 bu. Scallops (Rock Harbor) 19,200.00 Mussels (estimate 5,000.00 475 bu Little Necks 4,180.00 150 bu Quahaugp 625.00 Direct revenue tc the Town 62 Commerciai Permits $ 310.00 1102 Family Permits 1,336.00 7 Shellfish Grants 35,00 The Scallops o; Pleasant Bay were a bit more plentiful this year, however the amount of commercial dragging in Pleasant Bay was curtailed, I believe, by the Tact that the new shucking laws require an approved shucking house. Therefore, most commercial fishermen had to dispose of their catch in the shell This year a large set of ,seed haspropagated in this area. About 300 bushels have been transplanted from the shallow waters of Dog Fish bar `. to the deeper waters just previous to the cold weather, We look forward to a beautiful crop this coming year. The clam population seems to remain in good condition. As one area becomes depleted of legal size clams, new sets are coming in, also other areas are becoming productive. This year a 150 foot strip was bull -dozed on the Northerly shore of Mill Pond adjoining the Doane Way town landing. 407 bushel of seed quahaugs were transplanted from the deep waters of Pleasant Bay to different areas in Little Bay, the River and Town Cove, ata costof eleven hundred (1100.00) dollars. In 1960 approximately ninety bushel of seed was transplanted in Meeting House Pond. This was the start of our transplanting program and it is anticipated that 1963 will prove the success of this program. We wish t6 express our thanks to the Massachusetts Division of Marine Fisheries, the Board of Selectmen, and to the citizens and visitors for their co- operation during the past year. WILLIS S.

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 1962. The final land damage case against the Town as regards the acqui- sition by the Town of Nauset Beach has been settled. I have been consultedby, and have advised the Recreation Commission, the Police Department, Fire Department, School Department, Board of Health, Assessors, Public Welfare, Treasurer, Town Clerk, Town Accountant, Shellfish Warden, Building Inspector, Planning Board, Board of Appeals, the numerous citizens and residents of the Town in respect to matters relating to the Town of Orleans, and am working with the Planning Board on the proposed amendments to the protective ' By -Law and study and recommendations being prepared by Charles E. Downe. I have appeared in the Superior Court twice, District Court twice, and attended meetings and hearings in connection with the National Park. Highway drainage easements and Town road acquisitions have continued to be of great importance to the Town during the year. The technicalities of the National Park acquisition continue to be of par- amount importance to the Town from a legal point of view as well as apractical point of view, and the proposed zoning changes to be voted on at Town meeting provide a good vehicle whereby the Town and its .. taxpayers can co- operate with the National Park Service and still maintain their individual rights and privileges. Ihave also had the pleasure of representing Mr. Herbert F. Wilcox, Mr. Raymond E. Newton and Mr. Roger F. Smith, Water Commissioners, in the problems of the installation of the Town water system.

Still this increased Budget is only approximately Two Thousand Dollars over the Department's Budget of Ten Years ago. The normal operating expenses of the Department such as station repairs, apparatus expense, etc. have risen but we try to keep all expenses to a minimum. Town Water necessitates an increase in our budget for this year. We must have added equipment, fittings and other items to convert our apparatus over to the Town Water System Our Budget this year will include the sum of $400.00 for a snow plow for the Department Jeep. The purpose of the plow will be to keep a{1 Fire Hydrants clear and accessible at all times. This plow will also be used under the directionof the Highway Surveyor for whatever purpose he may direct. There will also be a Special Article in the warrant asking fox Four Thousand dollars (4,000.00) for Tone controlled radios. These radios will be placed to the Firemen's homes. They will be used strictly for Fire and Rescue work. They will be controlledfrom the Fire Station and only emergency calls will be received on them. These Radios are silent &c until activated by a tone control from the Center which will be our Fire r Station. Then all messages will be received on the home receivers. This will include both Fire and Rescue calls. Shortly Orleans will have a Telephone Dial System and this necessitates a need for a method of 'calling quickly the men for emergencies. This Tone controlled radio :system, seems to us to be the quickest and most economical method We x sincerely ask your vote for this Article. s' The FWD Truck has been painted this past yea., and now is in excellent condition. All other Apparatus is in fine condition and operating smoothly. ,. The small Patrol Truck is mechanically sound but because it is used h so frequently, it should be replaced in another year It was purchased second hand in 1967 for the sum of $700.00. At this kime, we wish to thank the Board of Selectmen, residents, and all departments in the Town, for the wonderful cooperation we have $.`eceived this oast year. Board of Fire Engineers LAWRENCE L. ELLIS Chief Engineer 43 r ,F 43 { { s ill i 4"1 3 1�<< ME' Report of the Highway Surveyor To the Citizens of the Town of Orleans: Once again I wish to report to you on the activities of your Highway Department for the past year. We have done the routine maintenance patching, etc. Our seal coating program was curtailed due to the instillation of water pipes. There was no major resurfacing done for the same reason. The department installed approximately 2000 feet of drainage, built six catch basins, six manholes on Nauset, Samoset, Tonset Roads, and Uncle Harveys Way. Thus we have made a start on a serious problem to which I referred in my last annual report. I would again stress the importance of this program and hope that much more can be accomplished as soon as the necessary easements are obtained and the funds become available. The Town Landing at the end of Quanset Road was widened ana surfaced. A boat ramp was also constructea. The boat owners and fishermen who have used this new facility are well pleased. We should consider doing more to widen and improve more of our Town Landings inthenear future. The drainage work on Main Street, which is part of the master plan, was completed under Chapter 90 The wooden guard posts on Gibson and Quanset Roads were removed and replaced with cement posts, the guard posts on Monument Road and Route 39 were repainted. At this time of year we are alieagerly awaiting the arrival of spring. To the householder as well as your Highway Department, it means a time of pick -up, clean up and painting after the ravages of winter. This year 1 am requesting your consideration of the purchase of a powered pickup street sweeper, so that the jobof cleaning up the roads can be done much more efficiently, both as to time and cost. I fully realize that it means the expenditure of a considerable sum of money. I have given it much thought but still am convinced that it would prove to be an expedient investment. Many of you might think that this equipment would be used infrequently. However, the facts prove differently. The Highway Departments of both Chatham and Dennis are equipped with a powered sweeper, and a check of their records shows that this equipment is utilized the year round under favorable conditions. They no longer allow sand to accumulate all during the winter, but strive to keep the streets clean of loose sand as a. safety measure. It also permits the water to run off the streets thereby eliminating pot holes, etc. I strongly urge your careful consideration of this equipment which can be adequately housed and cared for in the Department's garage. The radios have proven very helpful, and when the Department is fully equipped they will further add to its efficiency. 44 Thanking you and all the various Department heads who have coop_ erated so fully during the past year. Respectfully submitted, Frederick G. Mayo Surveyor of Highways Communication Center Report To the Honorable Board of Selectmen and the citizens of the town of Orleans: We nereby submit our report for the Communication Center for the year ending December 31, 1962. The Orleans Communication Center has been in operation for the past eight years, on a 24 hour basis, dispatching police, fire and emergency services when needed, to the inhabitants of the town. The personnel needea to effect this service has been provided on what amounts to a group of volunteers receiving a token payment for their services. Due to an increased build -up of activities over the years and the resultant demands placed upon the present personnel, especially during the summer months, together with the unavailability of volunteer help, it has made it necessary to recommend that this service be placed on three shift basis with a more adequate pay. s This change has purposely been delayed as long as possible, not only to keep the cost of the service at a minimum but also as a means to stimulate and maintain interest among the cal] *firemen and the auxiliary and special police officers. It" shoula be noted that in most towns and cities, there is a dupli- cation of expense for the services provided by our Communication :Center. Usually a fire department as well as a police department in the same town, each provide a separate, around the clock, coverage for their different services. The Orleans Communication Center groups all services at one location, at one cost, and with a greater degree of -� eff - iciency because many of the different services have a common wish to thank all the dispatchers, the Selectmen and the citizens town for their cooperation during the past year. Respectfully submitted, LAWRENCE L. ELLIS - Fite Chief CHESTER A. LANDERS - Police Chief 45 'a tia F 1 nm.1 AM a 111 Report of the Director of Civil Defense To the Honorable Board of Selectmen and the Citizens of the Town of Orleans- The Orleans Civil Defense Agency, in conjunction with the Mass- achusetts CDA and the United StatestiCDA, continues to direct its efforts toward fallout protection and communications. Locallywe have increased the protection factor at the Town Hall in a continuing effort to provide a complete and usable Town Office for use during fallout conditions We have vastly improved our own Civil Defense radio network and also have added to our new radio antenna standard a new aerial for both police and fire frequencies. Masonry baffles for all entrances to the Town Hall Shelter and Temporary Emergency Town Offices are designed and by publication date of this report, win be under construction. These baffles further increase our protection factor. We continue to stress the "community shelter" type of protection outlined briefly in last year's report. We feel that at this moment, we could shelter in public or community shelters, anyone in town who hasn't his own home shelter, although these shelters are by no means complete or fully equipped. We have recently acquired several portable two -way radios. These "waikie- talkie" radios would be immensely useful in a "lost child" type of search, but they are primarily the nucleus of a communications system between community shelters Evacuation and shelter programs and drills continue in the schools. We are most grateful for the cooperation givenus by school authorities. It is comfortable and relaxing to be able to forget the Cuban situation and East Berlin, but we must not. We shall continue, during the coming year, to further our community shelter program until one hundred per cent of the Town is covered. Finally, I should like to thank all of the various departments in town for their very fine cooperation with me in all matters. I should also like to thank my deputy director, E. B. Richardson, and my radio officer, Charles Darling, both of whom have kept the office alert and informed. Respectfully submitted, TRUMAN HENSON, Director Orleans Civil Defense 46 Report of the Planning Board The Planning Board held twenty -two regular meetings and twelve . special meetings during 1962. The regular meetings included thirteen legal hearings on new subdivision applications wherein 124 lots were created. Twenty -three plans were signed, Approval Not Required On April 17, 1962 the Board reorganized and elected Vlllton M. Gray Jr., Chairman and Truman Henson, Jr., Clerk. Milton M. Gray, Jr. ano Albert M. Kaufman were again authorized by the Board to sign all plans which would require no full Planning Board approvai. Mr. Louis H Carter was appointed b memner of the Board in May to fill the term w Frederic Berger who had resigned after many years service to the Board. In November Mrs_ Mary L. Hunter was appointed secretary to the Board The Board continues its mernoership and suppol � of the Cape Cod Association of Planning Boards and the Massachusetts Federation of Planning Boards. The Board is keeping abreast of the work and activities of the Cape Cod Economic Development Council. The Council directs, in an advisory capacity to the Barnstable County Commissioners, the economic development and planning study of the entire Cape being ,onducted by professional planning consultants for the Cape as a whole. The preliminary of the final report in this study is expected in March < with the final draft of recommendations to the Towns in May. We look forward to these results and the interpretation of its meaning for Orleans A project of considerable interest and concern to the Board this year I,vas the work done in cooperation with the National Park Service to create a Conservancy District within the Town of Orleans which included :both municipal and private property within Seashore bounds. This proposal required much coordinated effort between the Planning Board, the Board of Selectmen, our Town Counsel and representatives of the :.National Park Service. We are confident that the proposed regulations and use of land in this District will prove most advantageous to Orleans - .through the years ahead. The Board received valuable assistance throughout the year from MR. Jharles Downe, our Planning Consultant for the past two years. The Town has now paid Mr. Downe $1,396.29 of the $3,000.00 appropriation voted .. for planning purposed at the 1961 Town Meeting. Mr. Down's services have been made available from time to time to other depart - ments.'and committees. We have been more than satisfied with his services to date. �- We do not ask additional funds for further intensive planning work at this .:time, chiefly for the reason that we can profit most by awaiting the results of the Cape Cod Planning Study mentioned above. Inplemen. Cation: of any recommendations as respects Orleans, as well as further .: study.: on our part, may well be in order in 1963. The balance of our 1961 planning appropriation will be carried over for our use in 1963. 47 t. I The Planning Board is seriously concerned that immediate progress oe made in the guidance of architectural standards - especially in respect to the business section of town. We are hopeful that standards are recommended for your adoption in 1963. Cooperation from the Town officials and various Boards has been most helpful in our efforts.

By vote, at the regular Town Meeting, held on March 12, 1962, the residents accepted the Report of the Town of Orleans Water Investi- gating Committee. A bond issue was authorized for $l 820,000. to install a much needed water system. The Town elected as the Board of Water Commissioners, Mr. Herbert F. Wilcox, Mr. Raymond E. Newton, and Mr. Roger F. Smith. They held " their first meeting on March 13, 1962, electing Mr. Herbert F. Wilcox, Chairman and Mr. Raymond E. Newton, Clerkofthe Board. The services of Whitman & Howard of Boston were engaged as engineers and they Proceeded at once to draw up plans and specifications for the system. Mrs. Mary Lou Delano was employed as Secretary for the Board as of April 9th and regular meetings were set up for each Monday evening at 7:30, at the Town Office Building. Mr. Paul P. Henson, Jr. has been acting as Counsel to the Com- missioners, and the services of Arthur L. Sparrow Co. were procured for surveys. Under the supervision of the Engineers, Layne -New England Co, of Arlington, was awarded the contract to locate the quantity and quality of water necessary to supply our needs. Many water shed areas were considered. However, when the South Orleans areas, produced a quantity of water of about 5 million gallons aday, the search ended. A: contract award was made to D. L. Maher of Woburn to install 3 wells that would produce 2 million gallons a day. Your Water Commissioners felt that the additional water supply should be protected for the future growth of our Town, therefore, took the necessary steps to procure this water -laden land. A professional ` appraiser was employed and fair values will be paid for the land ;....__ taking's. concrete foundation for the steel standpipe was awarded to i Iacuzzi of Attleboro Falls, and upon its completion the Pitts - Des Moines Steel Co. of Waltham, moved onto Mill Hill to erect k.

Respectfully submitted, LAURIN C. PETERSON - Manager 54 Report of the Registrars of Voters To the Honorable Board of Selectmen and Citizens of the town of Orleans: The year ending December 31, 1962 was one of the most active the Registrars have had. They conducted six sessions for registering voters, February 10 and 21, preceding the Town meeting and election; August 8 and 17, prior to the September 18 State Primary, and September 26 and October 5, before the November 6 State Election. Other sessions were held - to certify names of signers on nomination papers - in February, for the March 14 Town Election, and in July, for State Primary and State Election candidates. Also other sessions - for certifying names on applications for absentee ballots - in February and March, preceding the Town Election, and in September, October and November, prior to the State Election. Still another session was con - ,.. ' ducted by the Registrars of Voters, on November 29, to recount the ballots cast for Governor at the November 6 State Election. Orleans should be proud that the recount shower' no errors in the previously recorded tally. '.Again, in 1962, the greatest single task was the annual listing of all persons 20 years of age or older who claimed their legal residence January 1 in Orleans. The Registrars were assisted in this listing by Mrs. Helen B. Toomey, Mrs. Elizabeth C. Cochran and Mr. Moncrieff. M. Cochran Jr. So many persons were away from their homes during January, February and March that many revisits were necessary. Such absence made it necessary to write 180 letters, containing 270 forms,- :, requesting required information. Replies were received from many states and a few foreign countries - from persons who wished to continue their ` residence in Orleans, or had taken it elsewhere. Final tabulation by the :. Registrars lasted 872 men and 1039 women fora total of 191E legal residents 20 years of age or older. About 40 letters and notices - -about new of former residents of Orleans - were sent to officials of other!. towns and about 20 letters were written to candidates, State officials, and questionable voters. The Registrars must again call attentionto savings in time and money which f could be made if persons, planning to be out of town during January and February, would notify the Registrars of Voters before leaving town or after their arrival at winter vacation'spots. Also it would help the Registrars if new residents would give notice in writing when taking Orleans as their legal residence.' With the cooperation of Orleans, East Orleans and South Orleans ,' postal; officials, the new 1962 voting lists showed where Orleans voters v' received their mail, rather than being listed in the previously used but unsatisfactory,. geographical districts, which have never been °Afficiallydefined. The Registrars believe this was a step in the right 'direction. They also believe the nearly 100 named roads, ways, streets 55 47 1,103 86 8 1,667 The Registrars wish to thank the Town Clerk for his year -round assistance with regist acson and other clerical work, and all other town officials whose cooperation with the registrars' work is instrumental t'? in helping Orleans to operate efficiently.

The Orleans Rescue. Squad, made up of volunteers from the Fire and Police departments, has•been in operation over the past six years. They have responded to every type of emergency that presents a threat to the safety and well being of the citizens of the town.

To see that the methods and systems are the most up -to -date and economical, utilizing both manpower and machinery and equipment according to the best modern practices in public administration. 3. To see that all Town personnel, elected and appointed, are fairly and equitably paid for their work, in the light of all available and pertinent facts and data.

To see that the Town is administratively prepared for the probable expansion in its population over the next ten years.

Respectfully submitted, RICHARD C. NICKERSON PAUL DONHAM, Chairman :JAMES H. RICE ETHEL JOHNSON, Secretary ELDREDGE E. SPARROW (Mrs. Kenneth D ) 63 Report of the Assessors For the year 1962 the Orleans Board of Assessors doubled all Real Estate Valuations, to bring them more realistically in line with current values and also having in mind the significance of the Supreme Court decision in the Springfield Taxpayers suit against the Springfield Assessors. As a consequence of this action our total Real Estate Valuation as of January 1, 1962 increased from $12,664,345 in 1961 to $26,924,815. Included in this increase, an amount of $1,596,125 represents the tax value of new construction during the year 1961. Our total assessed valuation for 1962 on Real and Personal Property was $28,954,000. The net result of this broadening of the valuation base was a tax rate of $20. per thousand - the lowest tax rate in the State for 1962. These changes in total valuations did not correct the inequitable land value situation which has come about in the past eight years since the original revaluation in 1954. We, as Assessors can keep in step with construction values in order to maintain equity -- but widespread, variable and substantial changes in land values creates an inequitable situation which must be corrected. This should be done by the employ- ment of an impartial appraising company, as in our 1954 revaluation. With the creation of a Town water system the availability of the benefits of the water supply becomes a factor of value, reflected into all adjacent property and we plan to cover this in the reappraisal of land values in order to spread the impact of the yearly Bond payments, Interest, etc., beginning in the year 1964. We are therefor asking for an appropriation of $5500. to employ an Appraisal Company to set up new land values throughout the Town in 1963 -- to take effect as of Jan. 1, 1964. For the year 1963 we are obligated for the payment of $63,700. in Interest on the Water Bond Issue; $12,000. for one -half year Water Dept. operational costs -- with no offsetting revenue from the sale of water as affecting the tax rate for .1963. Also, there is a proposed increase of $43,000 in School costs for 1963 -- making a grand total increase of $118,700. for which we are already obligated at our Annual Meeting in March. The only possible offsetting factor in relation to this substantial:: increase is the likelihood of an increase in new valuation due to con- struction in 1962 -- whichwe anticipate willbe approximately $1,500,000 which on the basis of a tax rate of $20. per thousand would produce $30,000. -- thereby offsetting about 25% of the increase. The following tables will give you some of the details by which we arrived at the tax rate: 64 Total appropriation to be 1961 raised by taxation $703,979.23 Total appropriation from Tax I Tax Rate available funds 61,400.00 Deficit Accounts $765,379.23 Court Judgments 6,897.57 State Parks and Reservations $ 22,500.00 Mosquito Control 2,577.24 State Audit 6,893.86 County Tax 1,107.78 County Retirement 55,312.84 Overlay 5,657.60 Town Group Insurance 7,698.21 4,500.00 Gross Amount tobe raised $878,524.33 :.Total Estimated Receipts & Available Funds $291,279.85 Net amount to be raised by '.

Forty -two of this year's total are in kindergarten. We now have two divisions of grades one through five, and the size of the present kindergarten will nec- essitate the first grade being divided into two sections in Sep - tember 1963. At that time all our classrooms will be in use. We regretted that Mrs. Marie Tones' accident last Spring made it necessary for her te absent from school several months. o b We are happy that she was able to return to her classroom in September. We are grateful to Mrs. Edith Stenphanz of Denmisport, who substituted for her. Mr. Roderick Nagenbuckle was hired in September to teach the additional class. 155 A two weeks' mathematics seminar was held at the Orleans runari lyl for Fernentary Of elementaxyhschool i achers ofsUnion 54.

Orleans Elementary School children are seeing television programs this year on Channel 2. The school has joined the "21- inch classroom," which provides the teachers with advance infor- mation on the subjects and contents of each program to be shown, and suggests now to prepare the youngsters for these programs. The kindergarten groups start with Phonics and Science. Other subjects covered for e the various grades ate: that are co Music, Health, Li *_era- ture, French, Natural science, and Physical Science.

Report of the ,Superintendent of Schools Annual reports of school superintendents usually present a broad resume of recent progress in the school system. perhaps with special emphasis on a few developments of note. The several reports of other school personnel, which follow in this publication, describe work in specific areas of the school program. I should hl e to 2kc u s oprOrtunit-y to direct attention toward 1) a consid- eration of the quality of the educational offering in this com- manity, and teen 2) a consideration of the cost for That offering. A Conclusion that the o`iering is or is not worth the cost should be a natural outcome. Quality Rather than to make a case for the quality of local education or to quote comparative statistics, I should like to cite a nambei of question taken lrom a booklet entitled How Good Are Your Schools?, which was developed for the use of the layman in "the intensive consideration of our schools ...' and "...based on the conviction that quality education is of highest priority in our society today." The reader is urged to use the reports contained in this vol- ume, plus similar previous reports, plus the information he al- ready knows about our school, plus any additional information school people in the community can provide, to aid him in respond- ing to these questions.

Respectfully submitted BARBARA N. WRIGHT Report of the Principal of the Elementary School We some excelllentdideas gleaned from Dr1ePhillipspin into the Modern Mathematics Workshop held the last two weeks in August. The 279 pupils greeted their instructors with equal enthusiasm for resuming their formal learning. Forty -two of the above number literally "bounced" into kindergarten. One more member was added to our faculty in the person of Mr- Roderick Hagenbuckle, who was assigned to teach a division of grade four. Mr. Charles Jones was assigned to teach a division or grade five. Mrs. Ruth Quinn was made school Librarian every afternoon from one to three o'clock instead of three afternoons a week as last year. The present arrangement allows half an hour for each class each week as well as time for servicing individual Pupils or small study groups while they use reference materials under her guidance. A set of Science Encyclopedias was added to the library volumes. About fifteen other books are now used for reference only in the library. This means that those books do not go home with pupils but they can be used during spare time in the library. Educational Television was made available to all teachers in the elementary school this year. It is felt that the fresh approach has been most stimulating to students and teachers. A schedule of the programs and the times of viewing were duplicated and sent into every home. Programs viewed regularly are in these areas: Music, Literature, Phonics, French and Science. Each teacher is equipped with a teacher's manual in order to prepare the group viewing a lesson with a purpose for viewing as well as follow up activitiy to be used at the conclusion of the program. It is felt that at least two of the aims of Educational Television are being met in Or- leans. Television is a new way to multiply the effectiveness of the teachers and it does stimulate pupils to reenfore concepts.

If this is to be our hope, fellow citizens, each of us must share his own full measure of responsibility in order to bring that hope to its fullest fruition. Please accept my deepest appreciation for continued public concern and cooperation in this business of education for the most precious gift — our children. Respectfully submitted CORA M. MAYO Principal Report of the School Physician This report will be necessarily short. As a new Physician in your school system I have not yet had too much contact with your school and children. Approximately one hundred children have been examined this fall. Outside of a few minor things such as cerumen, pronations, etc., very little was found. As a group, the health picture was ex- cellent. I feel quite strongly that good prenatal and postnatal care is making a great difference in the present health of our children. As I understand the picture, there have not been too many absences this fall. The usual colds and grippe have not been too prevalent. My understanding is that the physical education instructor has a very excellent program under way in the Elementary School, not only her own classes, but a carry over in the classroom on a daily basis. This, I feel, is excellent and complimentary as well as sup- plementary to President Kennedy's Physical Fitness Program. I have strong feelings in this respect and am heartily in accord with a good program of this kind, certainly feeling that such an organi- zation of the present value should be instituted at a young age. As a Draft Board physician in World War II, I was appalled at the rejection rate for physical defects. Anything we can do to promote physical fitness is welcome. Goodphysical fitness is conducive to the best of study habits. Respectfully submitted, Me JOSEPH N.
