To hear the report of the Town Officers as printed and to hear the report of any committee heretofore appointed and act thereon. March 19, 1962 VOTED: That the report of Town Officers as printed in the Town Report for 1961 be and they are hereby accepted. REPORTS OF COMMITTEES Edmund P. Hickey reported for the Committee To Study Erosion at the Dominic Filippello Playground on Arlington Street. It was VOTED: To accept the following report. This Committee was created under Article 39 of the Warrant for the 1960 Annual Town Meeting. Article 39 reads as follows. Article 39. To see if the town will vote to authorize and direct the Moderator to appoint a committee of seven to include the three members of the Board of Park Commissioners, for the purpose of studying plans and preparing suggestions to eliminate the erosion on the northerly line of Domenick Filippello Playground on Arling- ton Street; said committee to make its report at the next Annual Town Meeting. (Request of Board of Park Commissioners.) To this committee the Moderator appointed the following: Francis J. Fitzpatrick F. Donald Costello Frederick Parshley Herbert O. Berry John J. Coffey Edmund P. Hickey The committee met at various times during its existence and individually, the members made personal inspections of the con- ditions and conversed with some of the abutters. Briefly, the committee found the following conditions to exist: The chain link fence has started to slide down the embankment and the cement foundations in which the posts are set are almost completely out of the ground; the building at, the rear of ;#29 Coolidge Hill Road has apparently started to settle to the rear as cracks are appearing in the side thereof. Through the Board of Selectmen, the committee requested a legal opinion of the Town Counsel as to the liability of the town in this situation and said opinion is attached hereto and made a part of this report. ANNUAL REPORTS — LN3 29 The last paragraph of the Town Counsel's Opinion is herewith quoted: "It is my opinion that the said adjoining landowners to the Domenick Filippello Playground, have the right to lateral support of their land, and that the town may be liable for damage done to the soil of same by failure to support said land without proof of negli- gence, and also to damage done to buildings, if negligence is proven." Since the committee was without funds, it was not possible for the committee to engage the services of an engineer trained in this field. The committee endeavored to secure advice and opinions from the Engineering Department of the Department of Public Works 'but was not successful. We did seek the services of the Town Engineer and it was his opinion that the situation could only be remedied by building a retaining wall or by another method known in the trade as "cribbing". The unofficial estimate of con- structing a retaining wall was a minimum of $50,000. A slightly lower figure might be obtained if the "cribbing" method was used. The Committee recommends that the subject matter of this report be placed in the hands of the Board of Park Commissioners with the suggestion that said Commissioner obtain a firm estimate of the cost of the work required to be done and that a request for the appropriation of such sum be made at the next Annual Town Meeting. The committee requests that it be discharged. For the Committee s/ EDMUND P. HICKEY Chairman OFFICE OF TOWN COUNSEL Administration Building Watertown 72, Massachusetts June 12, 1961 Pasquale Sclafani, Chairman Board of Selectmen Administration Building Watertown 72, Mass. Gentlemen: Regarding your letter of June 1, 1961, pertaining to the land erosion on the rear propertly lines from 19 Coolidge Hill Road to 30 TOWN OF WATFRTOWN 39 Coolidge Hill Road, which borders Domenick Filippelo Play- ground on Arlington Street, kindly be informed as follows: The Town of Watertown is the owner of the said Domenick Filippello Playground and it has been held that the liability of a municipality as the owner of or as one in control of land or of a building is the same as that of a natural person, (Jones V. Inhabi- tants of Town of Great Barrington, 273 Mass. 483). In Hennessy V. Boston, 265 Mass. 559, 562, a city was held not the owner "in any ordinary sense" of a playground held by it, so as to be responsible for a nuisance caused by batted baseballs. The nuisance did not consist in any dangerous condition of the grounds for which the Town as the holder of the legal title to the land to be used as a playground could be held responsible, but in the acts which the park commissioners, who controlled the grounds, per- mitted to be done upon them; said acts being within the limits of the public work. Therefore, the Town having the legal title to said real estate, the liability of said Town being the same as a natural person, the following law and cases would apply to the matter in question. The right of an owner of land to the support of the land adjoin- ing is jure naturae, like the right in a flowing stream. Every owner of land is entitled, as against his neighbor, to have the earth stand and the water flow in its natural condition, and in the case of land, which is fixed in its place, each owner has the absolute right to have his land remain in its natural condition, unaffected by any act of his neighbor; and, if the neighbor digs upon or improves his own land so as to injure this right, may maintain an action against him, without proof of negligence, (Gorton V. Schofield, 311 Mass. 352). In addition to an action at law, the right to maintain a bill in equity to require an adjoining land owner to maintain and furnish lateral support is firmly fixed in equity jurisprudence. The right to lateral support of land applies only to land in its natural state. It follows as a natural consequence, therefore, that one may be liable for damage done to the soil by failure to furnish support without proof of negligence; but that, where an injury is done to a building or structure by excavations made by said same, he is not liable for damage to them unless negligence is proved by the plaintiff. (Triulzi V. Costa, 296 Mass. 24). If a person who is in possession of land in which there is an excavation which is a source of danger to the public, although the excavation was not made by him but by a predecessor in title, he is liable for the consequences of his permitting the dangerous con- dition to continue, the same rule also applies where a lateral support ANNUAL REPORTS -- 1963 31 has been withdrawn by a predecessor in title and the condition so caused has been permitted to remain and to cause injury to his neighbor. Where a municipality is owner or in control of real estate and creates or permits a private nuisance to the real property of an- other outside the limits of the public work, it is liable in a private action for the direct injury to the same extent as a natural per- son, since the public use and general benefit will not justify such a nuisance to the property of another. (Towner V. City of Melrose, 305 Mass. 165). It is my opinion that the said adjoining landowners to the Domenick Filippello Playground, have the right to lateral support of their land, and that the Town may be liable for damage done to the soil of same by failure to support said land without proof of negligence, and also to damage done to buildings, if negligence is proven. Respectfully submitted, s/ AUGUST M. STIRITI Town Counsel March 19, 1962 REPORT OF COMMITTEE ON GOVERNMENT Herbert O. Berry reported for the Committee of Seven To Study the Adequacy of Limited Town Meeting-Selectman Govern- ment. He covered phases of the report upon which there were no articles in the warrant. The full context of the report will be found printed as Article 105 of the Warrant. It was VOTED: To accept the report and that the Committee be dis- charged. RESOLUTION . . . EDITH NOURSE ROGERS March 19, 1962 Robert C. Hagopian submitted the following resolution on the late Congressman Edith Nourse Rogers, and it was unanimously voted: RESOLUTION FOR THE LATE EDITH NOURSE ROGERS WHEREAS, Congresswoman Edith Nourse Rogers was called to her eternal rest on September 10, 1960 after many years of service 32 TOWN OF WATERTOWN in the Congress of the United States as Representative of the Fifth Middlesex District, which district includes our town of Watertown; and WHEREAS, she was always solicitous of the problems of her constituents, and was ever-ready to lend her very measurable sup- port to the causes fostered by our local leaders for the benefit of the town, especially the continued operation of the Watertown Arsenal which provides extensive employment for our citizens; and WHEREAS, the veterans of the community in common with the veterans of the whole nation have been tremendously indebted to her for over thirty-five years of service in their behalf as Chair- man of the Veterans' Affairs Committee of the House of Representa- tives; and WHEREAS, we bow to the wisdom of Almighty God, Who has seen fit to take this great lady from our midst, but mourn her passing with the knowledge that our community is a better place for her having served it; NOW, THEREFORE, be it RESOLVED, THAT the inhabitants of Watertown, acting through this town meeting, express their regret and profound sense of loss over the death of their Congresswoman, Edith Nourse Rogers, and acknowledge that she will occupy a high and enduring position in the hearts of all who remember her; and be it further RESOLVED, that a copy of this resolution, suitably inscribed and signed by the Selectmen, shall be presented by the Town Clerk to her next of kin.

A second meeting was held on July 5, 1961, and unfortunately, because of conflicting engagements, only the same three members were present. Further discussion of the Article, and a decision to inspect the cemeteries of our neighbor- ing communities was made. Subsequent to this meeting, the Chair- man of the Committee was forced, due to pressure of other business, to submit his resignation to the Moderator. Since that time, no formal meetings of the Committee have been held, but informal contacts between the remaining members have produced the following recommendations; 1. That this report be accepted as one of progress. 2. That the Committee be continued in existence for another year, to report to the Annual Town Meeting in 1963. 3. That the membership of the Committee be increased to seven, with the Moderator to give special consideration to the feasibility of requesting the Superintendent of Cemeteries and the Superintendent of St. Patrick's Cemetery to serve as members thereon.

Seferian submitted report for the Committee, which was submitted in conjunction with Article 95. On motion duly made and seconded, it was VOTED: That report be accepted and the Committee- Dis- charged. Report follows: REPORT OF COMMITTEE STUDYING ADVISORY BOARD OF REVIEW UNDER ARTICLES 84 AND 98 OF THE 1959 TOWN MEETING This committee was created under Articles 84 and 98 of the 1959 Annual Town Meeting. Appointed to this Committee by the Moderator were Edward G. Seferian, Jesse D. Costa, Kerry Minasian, Andrew Harris, Sterling R. Carrington, Leona Slavin, deceased, Roy Dennison, de- ceased. Selectman Edward G. Seferian was elected Chairman and Jesse Costa, Secretary. The Committee has held a number of meetings since first organ- ized and its Secretary, Jesse D. Costa, was instructed to circularize surrounding cities and towns with a view toward ascertaining in what manner these cities and towns handled personnel salary re- quests and the make-up of said Boards governing same. Most municipalities responded to questionnaires sent after a fashion and it became apparent from answers submitted that Watertown was unique in that the make-up of the present Advisory Board of Re- view, a 10 member Board, consisted of seven members who were either town officials or employees and only three members repre- senting citizens at large. This was at variance with most cities and towns questioned where the presence of town officials and employees on such a board were at a minimum, if at all. Several communities responded to the effect that attempts were made to secure for this committee citizens whose background and experience qualified them on the principles and methods of labor relations and personnel ad- ministration. A thorough study of the problem of Personnel, Wage and Salary Administration through a board or committee authorized by the Towns and appointed by a moderator requires the answer to the obvious question, "Is such a board needed?" ANNUAL REPORTS — 1963 35 On April 13, 1949 the then Town Meeting voted that "pursuant to the authority contained in Section 108A of Chapter 41 of the G. L. to amend the By-Laws of the Town by adding thereto Chapter 10, Section 1 — 14 inclusive to be titled "Personnel, Wage & Salary Administration'. Certain other amendments were added to this By-Law since that date. This By-Law categorized employees indi- vidually and collectively into specific salary groups and from time to time is amended by Town meeting after recommendations are made by said Board. We must try to ascertain why this by-law was adopted in Watertown under the authority of the act cited supra. It becomes apparent that the committee appointed to study the feasibility of establishing such a board under this by-law and statute was impressed with the theory that such an organized salary plan should exist to be administered by a legally authorized Board. Said committee recognized a need for such a plan which would set out in an orderly fashion salaries of municipal employees. Prior to the adoption of this plan or by-law, municipal salaries in Water- town were a hodgepodge matter with no definite plan or purpose. In 1949 when the by-law was adopted for the first time, the Town en- gaged a proper and reasonable plan with which to govern employee salaries. I might at this time spell out to the Town Meeting the statute which enabled the town to enact this by-law and I might further add that this statute became a law in 1947 and amended in 1948. This demonstrates that Watertown adopted the principles of the plan almost immediately after enabling legislation was passed. In effect, Watertown's plan was considered at that time as excellent and was used as an example and followed by many other com- munities throughout the Commonwealth. G.L. Ch. 41, Sect. 10SA: "Classification of positions. A City by ordinance and a town by by-law may establish, and from time to time amend, a plan classifying any or all positions, other than those filled by popular election and those under the direction and control of the school commititee, into groups and classes doing substantially similar work or having substantially equal responsibilities. Such city or town may in like manner or in a city by vote of the city council, subject to the provisions of its charter, and in a town by vote of the town at a town meeting, establish, and from time to time, amend, a plan establishing minimum and maximum salaries to be paid to employees in positions so classified, and such salary plan may pro- vide for the attainment of such maximum salaries by periodical step-rate increases based on length of service. Nothing in this sec- tion shall be construed to conflict with the provisions of chapter. 36 TOWN OF WATERTOWN thirty-one. Any by-law adopted under the provisions of this section shall not be subject to section thirty-two of chapter forty." I am attempting here for my study committee to present to the Town Meeting a verbal picture representing the effort and background that preceded and proceeded the adoption of the Compensation Plan in Watertown. I believe that I have answered the question previously asked as to the need of such a plan in Watertown. Another question presents itself at this point. "Is the plan and the Board administering said plan still effective, and, if not, should a change be made? I submit on behalf of this study committee that the answer is in the affirmative notwithstanding events taking place at recent town meetings and notwithstading efforts and pressure to eliminate Chapter 10 of our by-laws. It has been the spirit and intent of Section 108A of G. L. 41 and Chapter 10 of our by-laws the Com- pensation Plan, that the Advisory Board of Review would be the final authority in making recommendations to the Town Meeting relating to municipal salaries with the statutory exceptions. In recent years the finance committee has almost totally usurped the statutory and local authority of this Board. The function of the Finance Committee is to make recommendations on the total budget but it is the function of the Advisory Board of Review to recommend amendments to the Salary by-law. Unfortunately there have been instances where Advisory Board recommendations have been ex- ceeded by the Finance Committee. This has been only in the past few years and such practice is totally repugnant to the spirit and intent of Chapter 10 of the by-laws and Section 108A of the Gen- eral Laws, Chapter 41. I will not comment any further on this point but will leave it to the Town Meeting members to draw whatever conclusions and inferences they deem necessary. As I have stated earlier, the study committee has unanimously agreed that Chapter 10 is vital to our salary administration. We are, however making certain recommendations for changes to Chapter 10 with specific reference to Section 15 in an attempt to bring it up to date and keep abreast with our neighboring cities and towns. We are recommending a change in the composition of the Board by reducing the size of the Board from 10 members to seven and by reducing the number of town officials and employees from 7 to 3 and increasing citizen membership from 3 to 4. We are also recommending that these citizens be qualified in labor and personnel administration in so far as practicable, we further recommed that ANNUAL REPORTS — 1963 37 the title of this Board be changed from "Advisory Board of Review" to "Personnel Board". All our recommended changes appear in Article 94 of the Warrant and we respectfully request approval as written. In closing I wish to thank the members of this committee for its diligence and devotion to duty. The committee joins with me in expressing our deep sorrow for the families of our deceased mem- bers, the late Leona Slavin and the late Roy E. Dennison, who worked so faithfully to discharge their duties prior to their decease. Edward G. Seferian, Chairman Selectman For the Committee Jesse D. Costa Kerry Minasian Andrew Harris Sterling Carrington REPORT OF THE COMNu i rr.i✓ OF SEVEN TO STUDY THE ORGANIZATION OF THE FIRE DEPARTMENT Report submitted in conjunction with Article 84, April 9, 1962 Report accepted and Committee Discharged. To the Town Meeting Members of Watertown Pursuant to a resolution adopted at the last Annual Town Meeting the Moderator appointed a committee of seven to study the organization of the fire department. Those appointed were Select- man Sclafani, Chief McElroy, Fireman Gerald S. Mee and Messrs. Richard Boerstler, Charles Flora, Philip Grogan and Robert J. Plunkett. At its first meeting the Committee elected Selectman Sclafani as Chairman and Charles Flora as Secretary. In this report and the attached exhibits the Committee respect- fully presents its findings to the Town Meeting. 1. FIRE DEPARTMENT OPERATIONS Most of us have little real contact with our Fire Department save in those fortunately few instances where we or our immediate neighbors suffer a fire or other emergency. It is then that we appreciate the speed with which the red trucks respond and the quiet efficiency with which their trained crews operate. The rest 38 TOWN OF WATERTOWN of the time we tend to take our Fre Department pretty much for granted. You will find statistics as to the number of alarms, fire losses, etc, in the Fire Chief's annual report. They only tell part of the story. What they cannot tell is how many lives might have been lost and how much more property destroyed if the Fire Department had not been as efficient, conscientious and well-trained as it is. The duties of a fire department are, briefly: 1. To save life 2. To extinguish fires. 3. To prevent unnecessary fires. In this modern, scientific age, these cannot be carried out by untrained men — nor can they be done efficiently without teamwork ad adequate leadership. The Watertown Fire Department carries out a unified training program based on standard drills and evolutions tailored to its organization and apparatus and the special hazards it faces. Fire- men are trained in fire-fighting methods, the causes of fires and factors which increase or retard the spread of fire. This is done through lectures and company drills designed to standardize pro- cedures in all fire-fighting evolutions so that a man detailed from one station to another can immediately fit into that unit which will continue to operate as a team. The real measure of a fire department's efficiency is, obviously not to be found in the number of spectacular general alarm fires it has to fight but rather in the ways its training pays off through stopping fires before they become large and even more important, in preventing fires from starting at all. The Watertown Fire Department carries on extensive fire pre- vention activities. These include: 1. The "Fire Marshal" program involving some 600 chil- dren each year at the sixth-grade level in both public and private schools. 2. Monthly inspections of all public and private school buildings and supervision of regular fire drills for the protection of nearly 9,000 school children. 3. Monthly inspection of rest and convalescent homes. 4. Annual inspection of lodging houses. 5. Spring and Fall inspection of residences and distribu- tion of fire prevention information to householders. 6. Licensing and supervision of fireworks exhibitions. ANNUAL REPORTS' ' 1963 39 7. Inspection prior to gasoline tank removal. 8. Handling of complaints by Fire Prevention Bureau. 9. Talks on fire prevention before schools, organizations, clubs, etc. 10. Instruction in first aid and use of fire appliances at local institutions and industries. 11. Fire prevention information for local newspapers. 12. Investigation of fires in cooperation with State Fire Marshal's office. Important as part of the Fire Department's duty to save life is the work of the rescue car. During the first eleven months of 1961, it answered 217 special calls (174 of these inhalator cases) in ad- dition to responding-to all bell alarms. We cannot know precisely how many human lives were thus saved but it is undoubtedly safe to say that a number of our townspeople are probably alive today because of the prompt and efficient work of the: rescue car. In ad- dition, during 1961, a Fireman rode with and assisted the Police on 321 ambulance calls. Much of the maintenance of fire apparatus and equipment and of the fire stations themselves is done by the firemen at a minimum cost to the town. From the above, it must be apparent that the Fire Department performs many other less spectacular but no less important func- tions than figthing fires. 2. ORGANIZATION AND EQUIPMENT The Watertown Fire Department consists of 4 engine companies, 2 ladder companies and a rescue car distributed among 3 fire sta- tions. Engines 1 and 3, Ladder 1 and rescue car are at Fire Head- quarters on Main Street, Engine 2 and Ladder 2. are at Station 2 on Mt. Auburn Street in East Watertown and Engine 4 is stationed at the North Side Fire Station on Orchard Street near Waverley Avenue. The Watertown Fire Department provides for a first-alarm re- sponse of 2 engines, a ladder truck and -the rescue car to most boxes. In comparison, both Newton and Waltham send 3 or 4 engine companies and 1 or 2 ladder companies to most boxes in their cities on the first alarm. There are a substantial number of simultaneous alarms for different incidents in separate sections of Watertown. As an ex- ample, there were 9 such occasions in the month of January, 1961, a month selected at random. Therefore a sufficient number of engine and ladder companies must be provided to enable a minimum 40 TOWN OF WATER.TOWN response of 2 engines and 1 ladder to each of 2 simultaneous calls. The present strength of 4 engines and 2 ladder trucks is the mini- mum to assure this. If we were to determine the number of engine and ladder com- panies Watertown should have on the basis of population in ac- cordance with the National Fire Protection Association formula, we would come up with engine and 2 ladder companies. However, because of the system of "mutual aid" prevalent particularly in Massachusetts, Watertown's present number of companies is ade- quate. "Mutual aid" refers to an agreement between Watertown, New- ton, Waltham, Belmont, Cambridge and Boston whereby each pledges prearranged assistance to the others in case of general-alarm fires and also automatically responds to first alarms from boundary line boxes in other towns. Thus the resources of all mobilize to help the stricken community in a serious emergency and each enjoys greater protection without itself having to maintain the reserves that otherwise would be required. A few examples for mutual aid can be cited. In the event of a general alarm fire in Watertown, Newton, Waltham, Belmont and Cambridge would automatically move apparatus into vacated Water- town fire stations to answer any other calls that might be received while the Watertown Department was fully engaged with its major fire. Boston would do likewise, but on special call. If more help was needed at the Watertown fire, our neighboring cities and towns would provide it. If special equipment were needed, they would provide it. All this is done without cost to the community aided, it being assumed that in the long run the costs to the several cities and towns balance out. Under mutual aid, also, Newton responds on the first alarm to 7 Watertown boundary line boxes, Belmont to 24, Waltham and Cambridge to 3 each. For its part, Watertown responds to 7 New- ton, 16 Belmont, 6 Waltham and 3 Cambridge boxes near the Water- town lines. 3. FIRE STATIONS It is self-evident that adequate, strategically-located fire sta- tions must be provided to house the 4 engine companies, 2 ladder companies and rescue car needed as a minimum for proper fire pro- tection. Fire Headquarters on Main Street is well-located to provide ANNUAL REPORTS — 1863 41 reasonably quick response to the center of the town. Traffic con- ditions in Watertown Square often delay response to the area east and south of the Square but East Watertown is covered from the East End Station. The North Side Station provides an engine com- pany for incidents in that widespread and increasingly thickly popu- Iated area which includes a large veteran's housing project, two apartment developments, several schools and what is considered the worst residential conflagration hazard in town, the area on the south slope of Common Street hill. No one of the existing stations could be closed without serious detriment to the efficiency of the Department and danger to life and property. 4. PERSONNEL At present the Department comprises 103 officers and men. Of this number the Chief is charged with responsibility for the adminis- tration of the Department at all times. By the nature of their work, the 2 clerks, 1 inspector and 1 mechanician have administrative or mechanical duties precluding their availability as actual fire- fighters. This leaves a total of 98 officers and men to respond with the apparatus. Because of the 48-hour week for firemen there must be at least 3.5 men for each man; on duty. In other words, without any pro- vision for absences because of 4Zlness, injury and vacations, only 2/7 of the firefighting personnel is on duty per shift. Two-sevenths of 98 is 28, or the number of firefighters now on duty to man the apparatus an any one time if no one is absent. Column (1) of Exhibit 1 shows the distribution of these 28 men by companies. Engine 3, Ladder 2 and the rescue cars are undermanned. The Committee feels that Engine 3 should have 2 additional men and each of the other two pieces one additional man on each shift in order to operate effectively. It also feels that pro- vision should be made for a dispatcher on each shift. At the present time a firefighter must be detailed from one of the companies lat Fire Headquarters to perform this vital communications function, thus further reducing the active firefighting personnel. Column (2) of exhibit 1 shows the recommendations of the Committee for a total of 33 officers and men (exclusive of the Chief, clerks, inspector and mechanician) per shift. Column (3) presents a comparison with the minimum manning standards of the National Fire Protection Association which is significant in showing that while the present strength is inadequate, the recommended figures 42 TOWN OF WATERTOWN of the Committee are realistic in comparison with the thinking of experts in the fire protection field. Multiplying 33 by 3.5 and adding the Chief, 2 clerks, 1 inspector and 1 mechanician we arrive at the total of 121 officers and men recommended by the Committee. We cannot stress too much that the above recommendations include no provision for inevitable absences. The 1960-61 figures for the Watertown Department show that the present per shift fire- fighting strength of 28 produces an average of only 23 men on duty. Applying this ratio (28/23 141 officers and men, not including the Chief, clerks, inspector and mechanician would be needed to ensure full coverage at all times. The Committee, nevertheless, decided to stick to its lower recommendation of 116 officers and men, plus Chief, 2 clerks, 1 inspector and 1 mechanician, or a total of 121. Next, let us consider the number of officers needed for the proper and efficient operation of the Department. After studying the departmental roster and taking notes of instances where the highest ranking officer on duty has been a lieutenant and also comparing the ratio of officers in the Water- town Fire Department with other surrounding departments (see Exhibit 3) the Committee believes that officer coverage is presently inadequate. The next question is "how inadequate". The Committee feels that 4 Deputy Chiefs are needed so that one Deputy Chief can be on duty at all times. With each on duty 2/7 of the time, 4 is the minimum possible number to accomplish this. This number does not provide a sufficient margin to cover vacations, sickness and injury. At present there are 4 captains, and 9 lieutenants (referred to as "company officers") assigned to the 4 engine companies and 2 ladder companies. No officer is assigned to the rescue truck. The Committee, after careful consideration of the factors involved and the probable recommendations of the forthcoming report of the National Board of Fire Underwriter's recent survey of the Depart- ment, believes that there should be a sufficient number of captains and lieutenants so that each of the 4 engine companies and 2 ladder companies has either a captain or a lieutenant in charge of each shift. This requires a total of 21 captains and lieutenants (6 com- panies X 3.5). In the interests of administrative efficiency, the Committee felt ANNUAL REPORTS — INS 43 that there should be one captain for each company with a lieutenant in charge when the captain was off-duty. To do this, there must be 6 captains and 15 lieutenants, . The balance of the 121 men (exclusive of Chief, Deputy Chiefs and Mechanician) recommended would be privates. Exhibit 3 recapitulates the recommendations of the Committee as respects personnel. Respectfully submitted Pasquale Sclafani, Chairman Charles C. Flora, Secretary Richard W. Boerstler Philip F.

IN THE ADMINISTRATION BUILDING The committee on air-conditioning and reassignment of office space in the Administration Building would like to thank the Town Meeting and the Moderator for the appointment of two additional members, Mr. John Corbett and Mr. George Wellman. We have discussed at length reassignment of space for the town offices, and, as a group of laymen, we have to some extent investi- gated the feasibility and cost of various possible improvements. However, we find that, in many ways, the problems involved are technical in nature. It, therefore, seems to us advisable to hire professional assistance in preparing to submit to your consideration our suggestions for the Administration Building. A unified and con- crete plan produced with the help of trained consultants is likely in the long run to provide the most economical solution for the town. The committee is also studying the possible use of microfilm to alleviate shortage of space for the town records. We have ascertained that, in the departments where we have the worst record storage problems, no legal obstacle exists to our solving them by the use of microfilm. The committee is now investigating the practicality and cost of establishing a microfilm system. The committee is convinced of the need for air-conditioning the building, but we have determined that if relocation of offices should involve any physical alterations to the building, it would be prefer- able ,for reasons of economy and convenience, to have all the work done at the same time. We therefore respectfully request a further extension of time and the appropriation of funds sufficient for hiring a professional consultant, as set forth in Article 22 of the Warrant.

To hear the report of any Committee heretofore ap- pointed and to act thereon. REPORT OF COMMITTEE: FINAL REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON THE ADVISABILITY OF A DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC WORKS FOR; THE TOWN OF WATERTOWN (Action taken in conjunction with Article 5). This committee has been in existence since it was authorized by the 1959 Annual Town Meeting. The membership of the com- mittee at its inception was as follows: The three members of the Board of Selectmen, Messrs. Philip Pane, Edward G. Seferian, and John J. Curran, Mr. Lawrence E. Maloney, Mrs. Evelyn McGowan, ANNUAL REPORTS — i963 lag Mr. Joseph J. Mazza, Mr. Frank J. Argento, and Mr. Marcella J. Guarino, Mr. Edward Joyce, and Mr. James F. Brett. At the An- nual Town Meeting of 1961 it was voted to add two additional mem- bers to the Committee, and subsequently Mr. Elmer Johnson and Mr. Bruce Webster were appointed. Mr. Mazza died in February of 19M, and Mr. Clarence Corey was elected to take his place. At the 1960 Annual Town Meeting the committee requested further time to continue its studies and its request was granted. At the Annual Town Meeting of 1961, the committee reported that a poll of the members had resulted in a tie vote of 4 — 4 on the question of having a Department of Public Works in any form, consequently the report was adverse, but the Town Meeting voted to continue the committee in existence and voted the two addition- al members as above stated. The committee has been in existence therefore for three years. From the 1958 Annual Town Meeting when this proposal was first made to the 1959 Annual Town Meeting an informal committee compromising the Board of Selectmen and members of the Finance Committee studied the question and came to the conclusion that the proposal as set forth in the 1958 Warrant was definitely a- gainst the best interests of the Town, and in the subsequent bal- loting the proposal was defeated. This committee has earnestly and conscientiously endeavored to study this problem in its entirety. The scope of its study has in- cluded the man power and equipment in the various departments of the Town which would be affected by the creation of a Depart- ment of Public Works; securing reports of the heads of the De. partments affected as to personnel and equipment; interviewing the members of the Departments of Public Works of the Towns of Weymouth, Lexington, Brookline, and Wakefield; various mem- bers have interviewed personally Superintendents of Public Works in various cities and towns; literature from the Massachusetts Taxpayers Association and Bureau of Government Research has been studied and evaluated. Full discussion as to the possible sav- ings, the method of set-up, the personnel affected, and every pos- sible question that could arise, including cost of the creation of such a Department, was had and as fully explored as our limited capacities and facilities permitted. From the onset the committee unanimously agreed that if we were to have a Department of Public Works that the Board of Se- lectmen should act in that capacity. The creation of a separate Board with powers far in excess of that held by the present execu- 140 TOWN OF .WATERTOWN tive set-up could only have disastrous effects, and in effect would work a dissolution of our present form of government. In all fairness it should be stated that the study of the com- mittee revealed no condition in the operation of the Departments to be affected by the creation of such a Department that calls for such a radical departure from our present set-up, and neither can it be shown that any savings may be effected that are, or will be, of any immediate benefit to the Town. Those members of the Com- mittee who favored the creation of a Department of Public Works felt that while the effects are not immediately apparent that in the long run it will materially reduce the cost of operation of the departments as to manpower and the more economical use and operation of equipment. It was generally believed that the initial cost would be in the neighborhood of $30,000.00 per year until it was actually shown that such a Board could justify its existence. Upon a vote taken, a majority of the committee voted in fa- vor of recommending to the Town Meeting that a Department of Public Works be adopted and the Chairman was instructed to draw and to have inserted in the 1962 Annual Town Meeting War- rant an article embodying the essential features thereof, and which appears as Article 100 in the 1962 Warrant, and as Article 5, in Special Town Meeting of June 11, 1962. s/ JOHN J.

PLUNKETT 86 Hovey Street ANNUAL .REPORTS — n63 205 REPORT OF THE FINANCE COMMITTEE To the Citizens of Watertown: The recommendations for the Town Budget for. the year 1962 are respectfully submitted by our Finance Committee for your approval and careful consideration. Our meetings on the budget requests starting in early Decem- ber of 1961 and concluding on March 1, 1962 were held twice a week and well attended by our members and each budget item was investigated by the appropriate subcommittee. It must be noted that these meetings are open to the public and are properly adver- tised yet only five citizens were present at one meeting. With few exceptions the committee accepted the report of the Advisory Board of Review on the question of salary increases and agreed to endorse no general increase at this time. The total requests for appropriations were cut approximately $350,000.00 and we ask that you follow our recommendations so that we may keep our tax rate for 1962 as low as possible. You will note in the School Budget that the request for main- tenance is not recommended by this committee. Please note the vote of the School Committee to use Federal Funds for this pur- pose. We respectfully request that the members of the Town Meet- ing carefully consider their vote on these recommendations and also realize and appreciate the many long hours the members of the Finance Committee have devoted to this report. May I express my thanks to our members for their efforts in behalf of the Town.

Sullivan Term expires, 1963 Dominic Pallone Term expires, 1965 Philip D.Costello Director of Recreation REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR OF RECREATION To the Chairman and Members of the Watertown Recreation Com- mission The annual report of the Recreation Department is respect- fully submitted by the Recreation Director, for the year ending December 31, 1962. FUNCTIONS The function of the Watertown Recreation Commission is to provide a year-round recreation program to the end that every child in Watertown shall have a place to play in safety and that every person, young and old, shall have the opportunity for the best and most satisfying use of his leisure time. The primary aim of the Commission is to provide fun and happiness for the par- ticipants. Objectives include the development of new interests and skills; education for safe and healthful living; constructive use of leisure time; opportunities for self-expression and relaxation; and contributions toward character growth, social adjustment and good citizenship. ANNUAL REPORTS — IM 231 ORGANIZATION The Watertown Recreation Commission is composed of seven members, four of which are permanent. The other three are ap- pointed by the Selectmen. The four permanent members include the Superintendnt of Schools, Chief of Police, Head Librarian and Superintendent of Parks. The Recreation Director is appointed by the Commission. The structure of the board is as follows: 1. Officers of the Commissions a. Chairman b. Secretary 2. Other members The members are responsible for the overall function of the Department. This includes studying the needs, raising and allocat- ing funds and determining policies, rules regulations and standards for the government of the department. Overall administrative prob- lems are acted upon by the Commission. The job of the Recrea- tion Director is to advise the board; to bring to the attention of the board all the pertinent information at his command concern- ing any problems; to carry out the policies and order of the Com- mission; and to plan, organize and supervise the year-round rec- reation program. The Recreation Commission also receives sugges- tions from the citizenry of whom the Commission is really represen- tative and whose desires it seeks to interpret. PROPERTIES Properties used by the Recreation Department during the year 1962 for its various activities were; Randy's Bowl-a-way, Riverside Bowling Lanes, Boston YWCA, Newton YMCA, Boston Skating Club, Oakley Country Club, and the MDC Swimming Pool. The Wal-Lex Rollerway, Arlington, Coolidge, East, Parker, Cunniff, Saltonstall, Victory Lowell, West, Howe and Bemis playgrounds. The East, West, Senior High, Phillips, Lowell, Cunniff, Browne, Parker, St. Patrick's and Coolidge schools. The.Charles River, Bemis, and Cunniff School tot lots. Summer playground trips to Noreumbega Park, Fenway Park, Longwood Tennis Club and Pleasure Island were enjoyed during the summer months.. 232 TOWN OF WATERTOWN PROGRAM During the year 1962, a total or Sixty-four (64) different age group activities were sponsored. Program interest reached a nev, high as attendance figures will certainly confirm further on in this year's annual report. The annual "Playground Carnival Day" held during the last week of August was changed somewhat this year in order to reach as many children and their parents as possible. In the past, Victory Field provided the facilities and space where all thirteen (13) play- grounds participated in enjoying a successful and happy Carnival loaded with a variety of events. The change this year involved a "Sectional Field Day" that included five (5) areas throughout Wa- tertown. Field Days were held at the East, Victory Cuniff, Salton- stall and Bemis playgrounds. The remaining playgrounds were as- signed to their section according to location and size. As the Sec- tional Field Day program received many fine comments, we will set in operation plans for next year with adjustments to be con- sidered towards improving on another enjoyable day for all. Commendations are in order for the fine work contributed by all who participated in the very successful "4th of July" program, which entertained some 35,000 people this year.

Summer playground trips ANNUAL REPORTS — 1963 233 ATTENDANCE, 1962 For the year 1962, attendance at all sponsored activities, youth and adult, totaled 182,936. For the year 1961, total attendance was 161,637. This represents an increase of 21,2999 for 1962 over the previous year. This increase can be attributed to the excellent out- door ice skating conditions during the month of December. Dur- ing December of 1961 there were only two days where this activity could function as opposed to 18 days in December of this year. An- other fact to consider would be the unavailability of the West Jr. facilities because of renovations during the year 1961.

PERSONNEL All employees of the Recreation Commission, excepting the Recreation Director and Secretary are part-time employees. Part- time employees are hired to instruct and supervise various pro- grams during the four seasons of the year. The large number of part-time employees hired during the year is necessary as it also involves the use of custodians, secre- 234 TOWN OF WATERTOWN tarles, and various school personnel. Summer personnel also adds to the total as it involves mainly college students who work sum- mers on►y. All prospective employees are required to fill out application forms, making note of their previous experience and education. This insures the citizenry a recreation program that will provide for everyone the best and most satisfying use of his leisure time. During the year 1962, a three-day training program was pro- vided for summer playground employees. PROGRESS Progressive steps taken by the Recreation Commission dur- ing the year 1962 were as follows: 1. The year-round recreation program was expanded. 2. Of a total of 64 activities 60 functioned successfully, the re- maining 4 were cancelled due to lack of interest. 3. Some activities during the year increased in terms of num- ,ber of sessions held and length of program. 4. The Recreation Department is affiliated with the Nation- al Recreation Association. This provides the department with materials and information concerning movements, pro- gress and new programs taking place throughout the coun- try. 5. Closer supervision of all activities assuring the citizens of the town a safe and enjoyable year-round recreation pro- gram. 6. Training programs for the staff helping to make for better organized and safer activities. 7. Additional office and program equipment improved depart- mental operations and program functions. 8. Two new events were added to the summer playground pro- gram. 9. A new and improved recreation area on the Charles River was developed by the M.D.C. 10. Bemis playground received additional equipment and fa- cilities. 11. Additional equipment & supplies purchased to meet our needs. ANNUAL REPORTS — 1963 235 NEEDS Because of the growth of recreation in Watertown, definite needs for successful departmental operation have become appar- ent. 1. Continued development of the year-round program to meet the ever increasing needs of the citizenry.. 2. Additional facilities to take care of program expansion. 3. Increased funds to meet the needs. 4. Further development of the teen-age program. 5. Additional equipment and supplies. 6. At the present time, there exists a shortage of facilities in Watertown for future development of a sound year-round recreation program. Such a program covers ten areas of recreation. There are arts and crafts, music, dancing, dra- matics, nature study, sports and games, hobbies, camping, social recreation and adult recreation. Without adequate facilities, these ten areas of recreation cannot possibly be adequately developed. Therefore, it is highly important that the citizens of Watertown give serious consideration to the development of a recreation building in the not too distant future. A building that would meet the needs and adequately serve the population. RECOMMENDATIONS The following steps are recommended: 1. The year-round program for 1962 be further expanded. 2. Development of a girls program beyond the present scope of activity. 3. Evaluation of the condition and rate of progress of the de- partment. 4. Expanding the volume of equipment to meet the needs. 5. Two roving instructors be added to the summer playgrounds staff. 6. An Arts & Crafts Specialist be added to the summer staff. 7. Additional Tennis facilities. 8. Streamlining operations of the department in such a way that all functions of the department are properly scrutin- ized and evaluated. 236 TOWN OF WATERTOWN 9. Research, studies, surveys, evaluations and reports be made concerning areas and facilities, program, publicity and pub- lic relations and other phases of departmental operations. 10. That residents of Watertown give serious consideration to the development of a recreation building. 11. Construction of play courts on all playground hard surface areas. Example: Shuffleboard, hop-scotch. 12. That the publicity and public relations program be expand- ed and various medias of communication be used to inform and educate the public. 13. That an annual report be published by the department ev- ery year and be made available to the citizens of Watertown. 14. That the Summer playground salaries be increased. I would feel remiss if I did not take the opportunity to express my appreciation for the cooperation and assistance I have received from everyone since May 26th when I assumed the responsibilities as your Director of Recreation in the Town of Watertown. Watertown, through the Recreation Commission and the dedi- cated accomplishments of Mr. Larry Fortier, our Town's first Recreation Director, have in seven short years established a rec- reation program, year-round, that is already recognized throughout the State for its progress, achievement and contributions in the field of Recreation. I shall strive to maintain, develop and promote our Depart- ment in offering the services beneficial to our community in the education for constructive use of leisure time. In closing, I would also like to express my appreciation to the Chairman and members of the Recreation Commission, to the Park Department, School Department, Board of Selectmen, Town Officials, Department Heads, and local newspapers for their help- ful assistance and cooperation during the year 1962. But mainly, to the citizens of Watertown, without whose help such a recreation program as is now in existence in Watertown could not be possible. Respectfully submitted, PHILIP D. COSTELLO Director of Recreation ANNUAL DEPORTS — 1868 237 REPORT OF THE WATER COMMISSIONERS The report of the Water Commissioners for the year ending December 31, 1962, is as follows: During the year the principal items of street mains that were laid are: Vivian Drive from Green St. to end of drive 140 ft. of 1%-inch copper tube. Desmond Ave. from Warren St. to Grandview Ave. 792 ft. of 6-inch Cast Iron Cement Lined pipe. Heather Road from Warren St. to Grandview Ave. 576 ft. of 6-inch Cast Iron Cement Lined pipe. Five new hydrants were added this year. Seven hydrants were damaged by collision or otherwise, these were repaired or replaced, one of these was gated. All hydrants have been inspected and painted, repairs made where necessary. Hydrants are inspected after being used by any of the Town Departments. All are cleared after each snowfall. 61 new connections and services have been laid, one being a sprinkler service. 142 house services have been repaired or renewed. 253 house services were cleaned from meter to street main. 112 house inspections have been made for leaks in plumbing fixtures on complaints of excessive water consumption. The number of meters repaired and exchanged on house ser- vices were 1190. All meters are cleaned, repaired and tested before being set again. 228 emergency calls were answered and tended to. These calls occur after working hours and if necessary repairs are made immediately so that no consumer will be without water. With the co-operation of the Tax Collector the collection of water bills for the year has been very satisfactory. 238 TOWN OF WATERTOWN In the year of 1962 the Massachusetts Legislature passed a bill allowing the Metropolitan District Commission to raise the cost of water supplied to the members of the Metropolitan Water District from $80.00 per million gallons to $120.00 per million gal- lons. As the Town of Watertown is a member of the Water Dis- trict we found that it would be also necessary to raise our rates in order to be able to meet this fifty percent increase of water rates charged to the Town. Accordingly a new schedule of rates was drawn up by the Water Commissioners, approved by the Board of Selectmen and the Metropolitan District Commission. These new rates to be effective with the first billing on January 1, 1963. All consumers were notified in advance of the new rates in the local newspapers and by mail.

In the year 1962 the Park Commissioners, with the help of the department, made Watertown a better and safer place to live and play. In addition to the regular maintenance of parks and deltas, listed below are some of the special projects undertaken and com- pleted: The bleachers at Victory Field were completely dismantled due to the poor condition of the foundation. The wooden foundations were removed and replaced with cement tiers. A combination basketball and skating rink was built at Bemis Playground and the Little League infield remodeled. Two dug-outs on the first and third base sides of the base- ball diamond were installed at West End Playground. New blacktop ramp constructed at the Parker Playground. Cunniff School playground resurfaced for Little League this summer. Two new pieces of equipment were purchased this year, a Jeep and a Bunton Lawn Mower. The members of the Board, along with the citizens of the town, would like to publicly thank Joseph A. Dwyer, Superintendent of Parks, and the men of his department who work so diligently in all types of weather to maintain the Parks of Watertown. Respectfully submitted, JOHN COFFEY, Chairman JOHN MANNING, Clerk FREDERICK A. PARSHLEY ANNUAL REPORTS — 1963 243 REPORT OF THE BOARD OF APPEALS The Annual Report of the Board of Appeals for the year ending December 31, 1962 is herewith submitted in accordance with the By-laws of the Town of Watertown. From January 1, 1962 to and including December 31, 1962, the Board heard and decided thirty-five appeals, which represents an increase of ten appeals over the previous year ending December 31, 1961. Many of the appeals heard were cases of first impression re- quiring extensive legal research in order to reach sound conclusions of law With very few exceptions, we took views of the subject premises of the appeals and the areas in which they were located, often devoting our Sunday mornings to that purpose, so as to enable us to render decisions based in part on personal knowledge thereby acquired. The large number of appeals necessitated the setting up of additional hearing dates and the holding of special meetings of the Board to discuss and dispose of pending appeals. In rendering our decisions we endeavored, to the best of our ability and under- standing, to give full consideration to the applicable laws and statutes, to the interests of the appellants, abutters and neighbors and to the interests of the Inhabitants of the Town of Watertown. We trust that our decisions reflect our work, effort and diligence. In our Annual Report for the year 1961 we recommend that the Building Code and the Zoning By-laws be revised. We note that the Selectmen accepted and acted upon our recommendation to revise the Building Code and at this time we again recommend that the Zoning By-laws be revised. We wish to express our appreciation for the assistance and co- operation given to us by Marie Flaherty, our Secretary, Jim Clark, Building Inspector, John Ryan and the other members of the Plan- ning Board and many others. Respectfully submitted, ANTONIO MOSCA, Chairman CHRISTOPHER J. CHRISTOPHER, Clerk THOMAS F. TRACEY . 2" TOWN OF WATERTOWN REPORT OF THE FIRE DEPARTMENT In compliance with the By-Laws of the Town of Watertown, I hereby submit the Annual Report of the Fire Department for the year ending December 31, 1962. However, as I was appointed Chief of the Department on November 8, 1962, most of this report covers the administration of our former Chief William C. McElroy, who was retired on July 26, 1962 but served as Acting Chief of Depart- ment through October 8, 1962. I would like to pay tribute to my predecessor for the fine administration that he gave the department during his term of service. I shall endeavor to maintain the high standards which have placed this department among the finest in the state. The membership of the Fire Department at the close of the year 1962 is as follows: (1) Chief — (4) Deputy Chiefs — (4) Captains — (9) Lieutenants — (1) Mechanician — (84) Firefighters, for a total of 103 members in the department. The total number of alarms for the year was 1,346 an increase of 231 over the previous year. Of these, 1,075 were Still Alarms and 271 Bell Alarms. The total number of False Alarms was 102 an increase of 41 over the previous year. In, addition the Fire De- partment assisted the Police Department, responding to 391 calls with the Ambulance. A report of the Fire Losses, Values and Insurance for the year is as follows: Values Losses Insurance Insurance Paid Buildings $2,541,310.00 $235,949.74 $2,457,700.00 $235,664.74 Contents 567,850.00 117,833.12 504,300.00 97,216.64 Totals $3,109,160.00 $353,782.86 $2,962,000.00 $332,881.38 An interesting note here is that approximately $202,000.00 of our loss was for fires at the Oakley Country Club on May 15th and the Linder Chemical Company on October 30th. Losses from all other fires are comparatively low at $151,782.86. ANNUAL REPORTS — 1WS 245 SALARIES I recommend that the Salaries be in accordance with the re- quests as made by your Chief and the members of the department in the various grades and classifications to the Personnel Board. These requests are in line with Permissive Legislation as passed by the Massachusetts State Legislature. OVERTIME PAY There are occasions when it is necessary to call members of the department to extra duty due to snow storms, hurricanes and other emergencies. In addition to this, because of vacations, sickness and injury, there are times when the department is seriously under- manned and we have to call back enough men to give us adequate protection. The present policy of giving a man who is called back, a day off at a later date, merely compounds the problem. A full and detailed study of this problem will be made and I will, at a future date, be able to make the necessary recommendations which will be acceptable to you, the Board of Selectmen, the Members of the Finance Committee and the Town Meeting Members. RADIO COMMUNICATIONS As previously reported, the Fire Department at the present time uses the Police Departmnt radio frequency, as well as the radio station controls for two-way radio communications. After October 31st, 1963, we must operate under a special and separate frequency which will require that the Fire Department have its own licensed station and the necessary equipment installed. APPARATUS Engine *4 delivered in 1942 has been out of service since Oc- tobe4 25, 1962 and requires a new motor at the cost of $3,600.00. This plus the cost of replacing the tires ($300.00) would be in my opinion, a waste of money. Engine *2, delivered in 1937 is no longer reliable. Both pieces are well over the age that is recom- mended by the manufacturers for replacement, and require constant attention and considerable repairs. I recommend the replacement of both engines. 246 TOWN OF WATERTOWN FIRE PREVENTION The greatest single factor and principle influence in the pro- tection of lives and property against the ravages of fire is Fire Prevention. Our Fire Prevention Bureau has conducted a vigorous and effective fire prevention program throughout the year with excellent results. Inspections have disclosed numerous hazards, all of which have been removed or are in the process of being eliminated. The primary purpose of fire prevention is to alert our citizens to the ever present danger of fire in their homes, churches, schools, amusement and business establishments. With this in mind, our Fire Prevention Program will be intensified and include all the above mentioned areas. As a Fire Prevention measure, I would at this time, recommend the installation of automatic sprinklers in all of our school buildings. TRAINING Under our Training Program, the members of the department received instructions in all phases of fire fighting and other emergen- cies. We are constantly on the alert for all new methods of pro- cedure or any new dangers which we may encounter while fire fight- ing. As soon as these are known, instructions are immediately given to all members. AUXILIARY FIRE DEPARTMENT The members of the Auxiliary Fire Department are always ready to assist the Fire Department and have done so on numerous occasions. They can be mobilized quickly and are ready and willing to sacrifice their time and energy in behalf of the townspeople. To the officers and members of the Auxiliary Fire Department, I wish to extend my sincere thanks for their continued cooperation. RETIREMENTS Chief William C. McElroy, a member of the department since 1920 was retired on July 26, 1962 after forty-two years of service to the Town. He was appointed Acting Chief of the Department on July 27, 1962 pending the establishment of a Civil Service list for Chief of the Department and served in this capacity through October 8, 1962. Captain Benjamin F. Robbins, Jr. a member of the department since 1931, was retired after thirty-one years of service to the Town, as of November 1, 1962. ANNUAL REPORTS — 1963 247 Giles A. Laughrea, a member of the department since 1928 was retired after more than thirty-three years of service to the Town, effective July 31, 1962. To Chief McElroy, Captain Robbins and Giles Laughrea, who between them represent over a century of faithful and loyal service to the Town, I wish to extend my very best wishes for a long, happy and prosperous life in their well deserved retirement. RESIGNATION Frederick A. Parshley, Jr., a member of the department since February 12, 1959, tendered his resignation on September 6, 1962, to accept an appointment as teacher in the Watertown School Sys- tem. In behalf of myself and the members of the department, I extend our best wishes to Fred for a long and successful career in the school department. ACTING-CHIEF Deputy Chief Walter C. Starr was appointed Acting Chief of Department on October 9, 1962 and served in this capacity through November 7th, at which time his appointment was terminated due to the appointment of a permanent Chief. To Chief Starr I extend my thanks and congratulations for the efficient manner in which he conducted himself and the department during a time when he was faced with many difficult tasks. CONCLUSION I wish to take this opportunity to extend my thanks to the Board of Selectmen for their cooperation and assistance as well as to the Chairman and Members of the Finance Committee for their cooperation and consideration of our additional budget problems. I extend my thanks to the heads and members of the various town departments for the assistance they rendered to the Fire De- partment during the year. To the Officers and Members of the New- ton, Belmont, Waltham and Cambridge Fire Departments, I publicly extend my thanks for the aid and assistance which they rendered to our department through the Mutual Aid System. To the Members of the Department I take this opportunity to commend you for the faithful and loyal service that you have rendered, and the efficient manner in which you performed your duties.

ANNUAL REPORTS — 1963 249 LODGING HOUSES: Inspections were made of twenty three lodg- ing houses where applications were filed to operate same. The means of egress in all cases were found satisfactory. PROJECTING SIGNS: Routine inspections were made of all signs; there are two hundred seventy-one projecting signs. ELEVATORS: Inspections of sixty nine elevators were made and reports forwarded to the Department of Public Safety. ZONING BY-LAWS: Complaints were numerous, as in preceding years. There were many violations but no prosecutions. BOARD OF APPEALS: Thirty five requests for variances or special permits from the Board of Appeals were filed with this Department. CONCLUSION I would like to point out an increase of $700,000.00 in residential construction over 1961. The major factor in this increase is the trend towards apartment houses. These greatly increase the work of this Department. However in a Town as short of available land as Watertown the only way to build is up. We hope that this year a change in the Zoning Height Limitations will enable the Town to increase its tax base by higher and more expensive construction. The Board of Selectmen at my request has appointed a committee of five to study the adoption of a new and modern Building Code.. We hope to have this ready to propose to the residents of the Town by the close of 1963. I would like to express my appreciation to the Honorable Board of Selectmen and all Department Heads for their cooperation through the year. Respectfully submitted, JAMES P. CLARK, Inspector of Buildings 250 TOWN OF WATERTOWN REPORT OF THE PURCHASING AGENT The following is a report of the Purchasing Department During the year a total of 6215 separate orders were issued and this included 1648 orders for the School Department. There were a total of 262 sealed bids that included 1062 major items used by all departments. In July the long standing roller controversy was settled to the benefit of the Town. I wish to express my appreciation to the Honorable Board of Selectmen and the Heads of all Departments for their cooperation. Respectfully submitted WILLIAM F. OATES Purchasing Agent REPORT OF STATE AUDIT AUGUST 1 , 1960 TO MAY 311 1962 December 4, 1962 Mr. Pasquale Sclafani, Chairman Watertown, Massachusetts Gentlement: I submit herewith my report of an audit of the books and ac- counts of the town of Watertown for the period from August 1, 196G to May 31, 1962, made in accordance with the provisions of Chapter 44, General Laws. This is in the form of a report made to me by Mr. William Schwartz, Assistant Director of Accounts. Very truly yours, s/ARTHUR H. MacKINNON Director of Accounts AHM:br ANNUAL REPORTS 1963 '25! Mr. Arthur H. MacKinnon Director of Accounts Department of Corporations and Taxation Boston, Massachusetts Sir: In accordance with your instructions, I have made an audit of the books and accounts of the town of Watertown for the period from August 1, 1960, the date of the previous examination, to May 31, 1962, and report thereon as follows: The financial transactions, as recorded on-the books of the several departments receiving or disbursing money for the town or com- mitting bills for collection, were examined, checked, and compared with the records in the offices of the town auditor. and the town treasurer. The books and accounts in the auditor's office were examined and - checked, the recorded receipts being compared with the treasurer's books and with the records in the several departments collecting money . for the town. The payments, as entered, were .checked with the treasurer's books and with the treasury warrants, while the appropriations, transfers, and loan authorizations were checked with the town clerk's records of. financial votes passed by the town meetings and with the finance committee's authorizations of transfer from the reserve fund. The general and appropriation ledger accounts were analyzed, the necessary adjustments resulting from the audit were made, and a balance sheet showing the financial condition of the town on May 31, 1962 was prepared and is appended to this report. . The books and accounts of the town treasurer were examined and checked in detail. The cash book was footed and the recorded -receipts were compared with the town auditor's books, with the departmental records of payments to the treasurer, and with other sources from which money was paid into the town treasury. The payments were checked with the warrants approved by the select- men and with the town auditor's books. 252 TOWN OF WATERTOWN The treasurer's cash balance on May 31, 1962 was proved by listing the payments in advance of warrants, by counting of the cash and listing the checks in the office, and by reconciliation of the bank balances with statements furnished by the banks of deposit. The payments on account of maturing debt and interest were proved with the amounts falling due and were checked with the cancelled securities on file. The outstanding bonds and coupons on May 31, 1962 were listed and reconciled with the balances in the bond and coupon accounts as shown by statements received from the banks of deposit. The records of payroll deductions for Federal and State taxes, for the purchase of savings bonds, and for group insurance premiums were examined. The deductions were footed, the purchases of bonds and the refunds to employees, as well as the payments to the proper agencies, were verified, and the balances on hand were reconciled with the respective controls in the auditor's ledger. The records of collections from parking meters were examined, footed, and compared with the treasurer's recorded receipts. The savings bank books and securities representing the invest- ments of the several trust, investment, and retirement funds in the custody of the town treasurer and the trustees were examined and listed. The income was proved, and all transactions and balances were verified and compared with the books of the town auditor, and, in the case of the retirement funds, with the records of the con- tributory retirement board. The records of tax titles and tax possessions held by the town were examined and checked. The amounts transferred to the tax title account were checked with the collectors books, the reported redemptions of tax titles and sales of tax possessions were compared with the treasurer's recorded receipts, the abatements were verified, and the tax titles and tax possessions on hand were listed, recon- ciled with the auditor's ledger and checked with the records at the Registry of Deeds. The books and accounts of the town collector were examined and checked in detail. The taxes, excise, and assessments outstand- ing at the time of the previous examination, as well as all subsequent commitment lists, were audited and proved with the warrants issued for their collection. The recorded collections were proved with the ANNUAL FORTS — 1M 253 payments to the treasurer, the abatements were checked with the assessors' records of abatements granted, the amounts transferred to the tax title account were compared with the records of tax titles held by the town, and the outstanding accounts were listed and reconciled with the respective accounts in the auditor's ledger. The commitments of departmental and water accounts receiv- able were examined and checked. The recorded receipts were checked with the payments to the treasurer, the abatements were compared with the departmental records of abatements granted, and the outstanding accounts were listed, checked with the available records in the several departments, and reconciled with the respec- tive accounts in the auditor's ledger. The outstanding tax, excise, departmental, and water accounts were further verified by mailing notices to a number of persons whose names appeared on the books as owing money to the town, and from the replies received thereto it appears that the accounts, as listed, are correct. The records of deferred drainage, street, and sidewalk assess- ments were examined. The payments in advance were checked with the treasurer's recorded receipts, the amounts added to taxes were verified, and the apportionments due in future years were listed and proved with the auditor's ledger accounts. The financial records of the town clerk were examined and checked in detail. The collections on account of dog and sporting licenses, and from marriage intentions, recording fees, copies of records, and miscellaneous charges, were verified and compared with the payments to the town treasurer and to the State. The cash book was footed and the cash balance on May 31, 1962, including selectmen's licenses collected by the town clerk, was verified by reconciliation of the bank balance with a statement furnished by the bank of deposit. The records of departmental cash collections by the sealer of weights and measures, and the building and wire inspectors, as well as by the police, tree, health, highway, school, library, recreation, and cemetery departments, and by all other departments in which money was collected for the town, were examined and checked. The payments to the treasurer were compared with the treasurer's re- corded receipts and the cash on hand in the several departments, including petty cash advances, was verified by actual count. 254 TOWN OF WATERTOWN The surety bonds of the officials required by law to furnish them for the faithful performance of their duties were examined and found to be in proper form. In addition to the balance sheet, there are appended to this report tables showing reconciliations of the treasurer's and the town clerk's cash, summaries of the tax, excise, assessment, tax title, de- partmental, and water accounts, as well as, schedules showing the condition and transactions of the trust, investment, and retirement funds. For the cooperation extended by the several town officials dur- ing the progress of the audit, I wish, on behalf of my assistants and for myself, to express appreciation. Respectfully submitted, WILLIAM SCHWARTZ Assistant Director of Accounts WS:br ANNUAL REPORTS — 1968 255 REPORT OF BOARD OF ASSESSORS January 31, 1963 We respectfully submit the Annual Report for the Board of Assessors for the year 1962. In 1962, we witnessed the beginning of the development on the former town dump land together with some substantial apartment house developments and a residential development on land formerly owned by the Rosary Academy, enabling the town to realize a modest increase in total value. The Board has again followed the general line of not making any across-the-board assessment increases. However, it is fair to point out that the available land in the town for future development is nearing an end. We must now look to general property improve- ments for increased assessments in the future. The town, together with most communities in the state, should make every effort to encourage the Massachusetts Legislature to provide future funds for the increased expenditures and services which are undoubtedly inevitable. Our sincere thanks is extended to our very efficient office clerks and to several other departments in the town that have made our tasks result in another successful year. Respectfully submitted, J.

Regular monthly and special meetings were held in compliance with the By-Laws and when particular issues deserved due consider- ation. The following represents some of the major activities of the de- partment: 1. The Health Department conducted Sabin oral anterior polio- myelitis immunization clinics with Type I and Type III vaccines for all preschool children from three months of age and all school chil- dren through the first grade. The department then continued on with its program over and above the state-wide program to include pro- vision of Type I vaccine for all children through 18 years of age, or through high school. In the Fall of 1962 the department started the administration of Type III vaccine to all school children from the second grade through high school, but suspended this program at the recommenda- tion of the office of the Surgeon General of the United States. This program has now been approved by the Surgeon General's office and the Type III program will be completed in the Spring of 1963. 2. During the year as part of its tuberculosis control and elimination program, the department conducted two series of Man- toux tests for school children; one in the Spring of 1962 and one in the Fall of 1962. This program is usually conducted once annually but, because of the heavy clinic schedule of the department, the annual Mantoux program has been shifted from the Spring to the Fall to make more room for the already over-crowded Spring pro- gram. This program was of increased value to the community, in comparison with the usual single Mantoux program of the year, in that two groups of children were tested in the same year. 3. The annual anti-rabietic clinic was administered for the pro- tection of the citizens by immunizing dogs. This program of im- munizing against rabies is becoming more significant rather than less, because of the increased incidence within the last few years of ANNUAL REPORTS — 1963 259 rabies among animals other than dogs in Massachusetts and in some of the states bordering Massachusetts. If this trend continues it may demand programs more extensive than the immunization of the dog population. 4. Last year the Board mentioned in its Annual Report that a survey was being made on the present status of the department, its personnel, environmental and organizational structure, its potential for future growth, etc. The Agent, working closely and cooperatively in this study with Dr. Frederick A. Dunham, District Health Officer for the Northeast District, Massachusetts Department of Public Health and his staff, has received the completed study insofar as the environmental sanitation program of the department is concerned. The department received a creditable report. Certain suggestions were made concerning the function of the environmental sanitation program. The department is in the process of tentative implementa- tion of some of these recommendations to determine whether in practice they would add to or detract from the overall efficiency of the sanitation program. 5. The department has progressed in providing a more com- prehensive infant-care program for the community, particularly in regard to prematurity, and intends to add to its activities in this area of public health. 6. The Board of Health and the Health Department are assum- ing added responsibility in the appointment of an inspector of gas piping and gas appliances, who will assume duties which will be in further keeping with the protection of the health, welfare and safety of the community. The Board wishes to extend its thanks and appreciation to all the members of the Health Department and personnel under its jurisdiction, for the cooperation extended during the past year. The Board also wishes to extend its gratitude to the various other departments, elected town officials, both of Watertown and other communities, and private citizens, who so kindly volunteered their services throughout the year.

FANTASIA, D.D.S. JANET D. LITTLE, D.H. LOUISE BICK, D.H. In submitting this annual report for dental clinics in the public and parochial schools in Watertown, Dr. Max Zelermyer will begin his twenty-fifth year as school dentist under the Board of Health in Watertown. It certainly is a momentous year for him which war- rants at least a momentary reflection on the past couple of decades with reference to the history, progress and accomplishments of our present-day simultaneously operated dual clinics, which incidentally are embarking on their tenth year as such. Twenty-five years ago only a single clinic with but one dentist and a single dental assistant managed with some difficulty to take ANNUAL REPORTS — 1963 269 care of the many emergency tooth-ache situations which were ever present during those dire depression days. In view of the pre- ponderance of innumerable needy and neglected oral conditions no routine dental examinations were possible in our clinics because of lack of personnel and time. In 1942 with the alleviation of con- ditions somewhat as a result of better living circumstances as well as classroom instruction by our dental assistant, we were able, for the first time, .to institute the routine annual oral examination of all our children up to and including the sixth grade, a procedure which has been continued ever since. During that same period we also afforded the opportunity to the entire first-grade enrollment to have their dental work accomplished in our clinic. With the cooperation of the Board of Health ten years ago we were enabled to double our services by doubling our personnel and installing new equipment. Since that time we have operated with two-full-time dentists in the persons of Drs. Max Zelermyer and Philip Fantasia as well as two full-time hygienists, Mmes. Janet Little and Louise Bick. The clinics can now not only examine more than 4200 children annually but even more important avail their services for the entire enrollment to get limited dentistry and prophylaxis to the extent that existing facilities and time allow. In contrast to the lack of evidence of hardly any children's dentistry in Pupil's mouths in Watertown in 1938 today it is indeed gratifying to observe excellent dental restorations and orthodontic appliances during our routine screening and examinations. These results are due in no small measure to the inevitable educational effect ,and response to the school dental clinic notifications regularly sent home each year. Both Drs. Fantasia and Zelermyer have successfully completed the postgraduate course of Public Health Dentistry at the Harvard School of Dental Medicine under Dr. James Dunning recently. They are also kept in contact with Dr. Welloch of the State Department of Public Health Dentistry through Miss Chesley. In this manner the clinic is kept abreast of any recent developments which might en- hance a more efficient program in our clinics. As members of the American Public Health Association and Massachusetts Public Health Association they are notified of conventions and supplied with appropriate literature and reports on research dentistry, fluo- ridation program, athletic protective appliances in competitive sports et cetera. In this manner the clinics can serve in capacities other than those functioning presently, should the necessity dictate or become manifest. 270 TOWN OF WATERTOWN The statistics for 1962: Examinations 4316 Fillings 1986 Extractions 84 Treatments 45 Prophylaxes 501 In conclusion, we must once again, as we have now for almost a quarter of a century, express our sincere appreciation and grati- tude to the many who have assisted us in attaining our goal to make our dental facilities compare favorably with any public health dental clinic statewide. Among those to whom we, the personnel, are in- debted are the Board of Health members, Health Agent, the faithful movers of our equipment, namely, .the Cemetery Department and also the various members of the School Department with whom we have had such pleasant and cooperative contacts over the years. To all of you, not only do we, the dentists and hygienists, offer our thanks, but even more important, the children of Watertown, who have derived the real benefits resulting from our cooperative efforts, owe you a vote of gratitude.

I wish to thank all the departments in the town or their wonder- ful cooperation whenever I needed their help and equipment. 276 TOWN OF WATERTOWN MOSQUITO CONTROL Robert L. Armstrong, Supt. — Paul F. Murray, Commissioner Mosquito control was uneventful in Watertown in 1962. Only two complaints were received. Field work commenced in the spring with a little ditch cleaning. In June the inspection and spraying for Culex mosquitoes began and continued through September. The most troublesome places were near the Charles River at the Arsenal dump and at Bemis dump. All spraying for Culex was with Malathion and oil except in catch basins. The latter were sprayed with Dieldrin early in the summer, then re-sprayed with Baytex in August.

This amount includes $675.50 to be used only for a Building Fund. The Commission plans to ac- quire a building for garage, shop, storage, and office, thus avoiding further expensive rental costs. ANNUAL REPORTS — 1865 277 INSPECTOR OF ANIMALS John J. Murphy, Jr., D.V.M. A total of 181 animals in Watertown was examined and quaran- tined for biting persons during 1962. Tfiere were no cases of rabies in Watertown during the past year, but there was a significant increase in the number of bites. The head of one animal was sent to the Wasserman Laboratory in Jamaica Plain. The Inspector of Animals wishes to express his appreciation to the Police Department and the Board of Health for their cooperation. In the area of preventive medicine the Health Department per- formed at a record breaking level during 1962. Oral poliomyelitis, influenza and rabies vaccines administered and Tuberculin Tests performed totaled 24,052 immunizations and tests. Education is an integral part of any effective public health program. During 1962 all members of the professional staff took ad- vantage of inservice training and orientation opportunities. The public health nursing staff, in addition to lectures, etc., attended courses at Boston College School of Nursing and Boston University School of Nursing. The tuition for these courses was paid for by a grant from the Department of Health, Welfare and Education. The department feels that it contributed significantly in impart- ing health education to the public through its programs of preventive medicine, communicable disease control, school health, dental health and environmental sanitation. The weekly presentation of health information by the Depart- ment to the public through the local press was a much needed ad- dition to our health education program, judging from the known reception this service has received from the public. 278 TOWN OF WATERTOWN In the area of Environmental Sanitation we are constantly pro- gramming and reprogramming to keep abreast of the requirements of the emerging Massachusetts Sanitary Code as authorized by Chap- ter III of the General Laws. This code is not expected to be fully promulgated until about the end of 1964. The 1962 edition of the U. S. Public Health Service "Food Service Sanitation Manual" and ever-changing environmental tech- nology are other examples of why continuous programming is a part of a positive sanitation program. Due to circumstances beyond its control, the Board of Health has not been able to employ on a permanent full-time basis the new sanitarian authorized by the 1962 Town Meeting. Nevertheless, much progress has been made in the environmental sanitation pro- gram which cannot help but lead to still further future development. In conclusion, I would like to express my appreciation to the Board of Health, for its cooperation and support throughout the year. I would also like to take this opportunity to thank all those individuals, the local press, areas of government on various levels, business and industry, without whose cooperation the operation of this department would have been considerably more difficult. Respectfully submitted, PAUL F. MURRAY, D.S.C. Health Officer and Agent ANNUAL REPORTS — 1M 279 REPORT OF THE TOWN ENGINEER The following is the report of the Town Engineer for 1962.

SEWER AND DRAINAGE COMbul-ir ,r. — The second stage of the committee's program got under way in March and was 99% complete as of December 31, 1962 (see 1961 Report for Bid awards). The F. E. Daddario contract was 1009o' complete although full payment for same was withheld pending certification of payment of all bills by the contractor, this matter will in all probability be settled by the time this report is printed, Pacella Brothers section was com- pleted with the exception of some road repair work which will be completed in the spring, enough money has been withheld to cover this work. The engineering forces supplied all preliminary surveys neces- sary for the design of this work which was prepared by the consult- ing firm of Fay, Spofford, and Thorndike, Inc. of Boston, then during the construction furnished all lines and grades thereby saving the town about $4500, the amount spent for the extra work by the person- nel of this department came to about $800. 280 TOWN OF WATERTOWN BEMIS AREA DRAINAGE — The Town Meeting of March, 1962, appropriated the sum of $120,000 to construct a 72" storm drain line extending from the Charles River dump area northerly to and under Pleasant Street, under the Boston & Maine Railroad and into land of the Quincy Cold Storage Company, land. The Quincy company has contributed $36,000 for this project and Paramount Company $14,000. This construction is being handled by the Board of Selectmen with Fay, Spofford, and Thorndike, Inc., designing same, the Town Engineers Department is furnishing all the lines and grades as well as inspection. After competitive bidding Richard White and Sons, a contracting company, from Newton was awarded this contract in the amount of $112,000, and work will be underway shortly. The work of preparing plans for changes in location, and new placement of parking meters was continued as in the past, also plans were prepared for the erection of stop signs and traffic signals; all such changes and new installations must have plans to accompany application for approval by the State Department. This Department prepared reports for the Town Counsel and investigated sixteen (16) accident claims by persons asking for dam- ages because of alleged defects on public ways. If court proceeding resulted from these claims, a member of this department testified as to the conditions he found. Each year new building or additions to buildings are located directly on the ground and then plotted on original plans, kept in this office with any new subdivisions of land. Prints of these original plans are made and given to the Assessors Department, and Building Inspectors Department so that plans are kept up to date in each department. These plans show every piece of property in the Town with the area, lot number, house number, and any house, garage or other structure situated on the property. These plans are on a scale in most cases of 1 inch equals 40 feet. Land Registrations filed with the Land Court concerning prop, erties in the Town were checked by this Office to see that there was no encroachment on Town owned land and public streets. During the past year this department furnished lines and grades where required in the work of the Highway Department such as street rebuilding, new sidewalk construction, new sewer and drain construction, one survey party is kept busy on the above work. (See statistical charts following this report). ANNUAL REPORTS — 1963 281 Construction work done by the Highway Department and work done by contractors for the Town is shown on the Statistical charts following this report. There have been numerous meetings this year of the Inciner- ator Committee, Sewer and Drainage Committee, Parking and Parking Meter Committee, Duplication of Street Names Committee, and Traffic Commission. The Town Engineer is a member of above committees and attended nearly every meeting held. In conclusion I wish to extend my thanks to the Board of Se- lectmen, the Highway Department, and the Town Boards, Com- mittee Chairman, Department heads and all members of the De- partment for their fine spirit of co-operation.

REPORT OF WORKMEN'S COMPENSATION DEPARTMENT Herewith is respectfully submitted the report of the Work- mens' Compensation Department for the year 1962. The total number of accidents to employees and reported by the various Town Departments amounted to 99. The majority of these cases required just medical expenses. There were medical expenses and disability payments in 30 of these cases. At the end of 1962 we were carrying 11 cases of which one we have had since 1953, three since 1958, one since 1959, one since 1961 and four since 1962. There are -two cases pending before the Industrial Accident Board of which we are not now making any payments.

Respectfully submitted, THOMAS V. DWYM Superintendent of Highways ANNUAL REPORTS — 1M 293 REPORT OF THE TREE WARDEN I herewith submit the Annual Report of the Tree Warden for the year ending December 31, 1962. Approximately two hundred and forty-one (241) trees were planted this spring in various sections of the Town — a number of these were replacements. All these trees were planted in fresh loam, fertilized and secured to a stake to hold them firm until the roots could get a good start. Most of these trees leaved out and were growing by the end of the summer. We have sprayed the trees on private property for Earwigs, Poison Ivy, Japanese Beetles, General Spraying, Dormant and Birch Leaf Miner whenever requested to do so by owners. One hundred and twenty-six (126) decayed and injured trees were removed during the year — forty-five (45) of these had the Dutch Elm disease. Your Tree Warden is a Legislature Officer of the Massachu- setts Tree Wardens' & Foresters' Association and is Past Presi- dent of the Middlesex County Tree Wardens and Moth Superin- tendents' Association and has obtained valuable information in the care of your trees at the various meetings and conferences. I wish to express my appreciation to the Honorable Board of Selectmen for their co-operation during the year. Acknowledgments are made to the various Town Departments — Wire, Highway, Park, Water, Cemetery & School Departments for assisting the Tree Department this past year. 1 My appreciation also to the Metropolitan Transit Authority, Boston Edison Company and the New England Telephone & Tele- graph Company for their help in topping trees in this town — lhereby, saving the Town of Watertown hundreds of dollars. To the members of my own Department, I take this oppor- tunity to publicly commend you for your loyal and faithful ser- vice. My heartiest thanks to all who in any way assisted me dur- ing the past year. Respectfully yours, THOMAS P. MORLEY TREE WARDEN P.S. This was the first year the Tree Department collected cash in advance for spraying — total amount collected was $2,906.00 which was forwarded to the Treasurer. 294 TOWN OF WATERTOWN REPORT OF THE WIRE DEPARTMENT The Annual Report of the Wire Department for the year end- ing December 31, 1962 is submitted herewith: — INSPECTIONS Eight hundred and seventeen (817) permits for wiring and fixtures installations and five (5) annual permits for plant oper- ations were issued during the year. Inspections and re-inspections occasioned by the issuance of these permits plus inspections of buildings and business properties to be re-occupied resulted in ap- proximately thirty-two hundred (3200) individual calls. Receipts for permits in the amount of $433.50 has been paid to the Town Treasurer. MAINTENANCE The regular recurrent maintenance work of repairing, test- ing, oiling, cleaning and painting of our Fire Alarm, Police and Traffic light equipment was performed. Also repairs on all Town owned electrical equipment in buildings were made whenever we were able to do so. The supervision of street lighting was given much time and many corrections made to better our lighting con- ditions. Also the C.D. Signal system has been maintained and many special lighting programs carried out — such as, Christmas Lighting, Recreation Lighting, etc. DAMAGE TO TOWN PROPERTY Motor vehicle accidents were responsible for damage to the extent of $150.00 — this includes labor and materials to Town own- ed traffic lights and Fire & Police boxes and in each case, the Town Counsel and Town Clerk were notified, so as to make claim for recovery of the cost of the damages. FIDE ALARM HEADQUARTERS This Division is on a 24-hour a day basis and handled one hun- dred and fifty-six (156) alarms of fire from boxes pulled on the street; one hundred and twenty-eight (128) alarms of fire received by telephone; two thousand three hundred and thirty-six(2336) alarms received over our Mutual Aid circuits; eleven (11) alarms of fire received over A.D.T. circuits. The following tests were ANNUAL REPORTS -- no 295 made by operators: Mutual Aid (4330), Auxiliary Generator (104), daily circuit test (5175). The operators also transmit "No School" Signals; admit officials into the Administration Building after hours and contact Wire Department personnel after hours for e- mergency work on Fire Alarm, Police and Traffic light break- downs. During the year one of the Fire Alarm operators collapsed while on duty and was not even able to reach a phone for help, but for the fact it was a daytime shift, he would have lain on the spot for hours until his relief arrived. This is a dangerous situa- tion as one operator is on duty during an eight hour shift and the fire alarm headquarters is an isolated room in the basement of the Administration Building, which is vacated at night, on holidays and over the weekends. The recent survey by the National Board of Fire Underwriters recommends a two-man shift and the shifting of the P.B.X. tele- phone from Fire Headquarters to Fire Alarm Headquarters and putting the personnel under the supervision of the Fire Depart- ment, which I strongly recommend for the safety of the public and the safety of the operators. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I wish to express my appreciation to the Honorable Board of Selectmen for their co-operation during the year. Acknowledgments are made to the various Town Departments. The Boston Edison Company and the New England Telephone and Telegraph Company for the courtesies and co-operation ex- tended to me during the year. Respectfully submitted, AMBROSE P. VAHEY SUPT. OF WIRES 296 TOWN OF WATERTOWN REPORT OF CIVIL DEFENSE AGENCY I hereby submit my Annual Report for the Civil Defense A- gency for 1962. Your records will show that this is the twelfth year of the re- organized Civil Defense program, and likewise, the twelfth year that I have served as Director. There were two important aspects to Civil Defense in 1-962: the implementation of the National Shel- ter program, and the Cuban crisis. In the minds of many, these two seemed to depend on one another, but actually the Shelter Program was conceived and put in operation long before the events in Cuba. Locally, it meant that a professional architectural survey-, financed by the Defense Department, through the Army Corps of Engineers, revealed that there were twenty-three structures in the Town that afforded adequate radiation protection and accomo- dated sufficient people to warrant their being designated shelters. The meeting with the owners of these buildings and obtaining their permission to use the same as public shelters, was a local respons- ibility, requiring a great deal of -the Director's time. As of the date of this report, seven shelters have been licensed and requisitions for shelter signs and food supplies, etc., are now being processed. The Cuban crisis brought about a reawakening of interest in Civil Defense, as does any International episode, but it appears that because of the proximity of Cuba, the effect of such re-awakening Nvill be more lasting. Inquiries about first aid courses, enrollment in our auxiliary protection services, etc., have continued at two or three a week level since October, despite the fact that the immedi- ate impact of the scare has long passed. It is my hope, that granted sufficient funds, the Town will be able to make the necessary alterations required to increase the radiation shielding of the Control Center in the Municipal Garage basement so that it can serve as a safe and suitable base of opera- tions during a period of heavy fall-out, if such becomes necessary. I further anticipate the completion of the first phase of the Shel- ter Program with space for some 12,000 of. our population, ade- quately marked and stocked before July 1, 1963. Provision for the balance of our citizens must await additional Federal allocatio:z of funds to allow modification of buildings which now fall short of shielding or space standards. Respectfully submitted, JOHN F. CORBETT Director of Civil Defense ANNUAL REPORTS — 1963 297 REPORT OF THE DOG OFFICER The Dog Officer of the Town of Watertown submits his re- port for the year of 1962. The following statistics show the activities of the department for the year of 1962. Dogs licensed 851 Stray dogs impounded (10 days each 77 Quarantined for 14 days 3 Dogs returned to owners 63 Dogs sold 0 Calls made during the year 378 The physical property used by the Dog Officer has been main- tained in excellent condition throughout the year. The pound has been inspected periodically by the Middlesex County Dog Officer and a representative of the Massachusetts Society for Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, and their reports have been favorable. The Police Department has also been fully co-operative in get- ting information regarding accidents involving dogs and other ani- mals. It is to be my continued endeavor to bring about the licensing of all dogs in the town. There is still much work to be done and with the continued help of the Town Clerks Office, I hope to have as complete a registration and licensing of dogs as is possible. I wish to thank the Honorable Board of Selectmen and all oth- er departments of the Town for their help and co-operation dur- ing the year. Respectfully submitted. ANTHONY J.

LICENSE BUREAU During the year it was necessary to revoke licenses issued for the following: Firearm — Carry and Purchase 2 Hackney Driver 1 For the purpose of encouraging cooperation between the licensee and the Police Department and with a view to detecting possible violations of the laws or regulations governing a specific license, the License Bureau made 1,698 physical inspections of licensed premises during the year. All complaints concerning the manner in which a licensee con- ducted his business were investigated thoroughly. If the complaint was well-founded, the licensee was warned against recurrence of the violation. In only one instance did such action fail to suffice and a clerk in a liquor store was prosecuted in Waltham District Court for Selling Alcoholic Beverages to a Minor. The clerk was found guilty and fined. A report of this conviction, along with a similar complaint, was forwarded to the Honorable Board of Select- men, but no action was taken by the Boord because the place of business concerned was sold prior to the date set for a hearing be- fore the Selectmen. During 1962, this department, in cooperation with the Sealer of Weights and Measures, and a representative of the Watertown Taxi Owners Association, revised the Rules and Regulations Governing ANNUAL REPORTS — 1963 301 the Operation of Hackney Carriages. Under the revised rules, all Hackney Drivers are issued identifying badges by this department. This department also authored a set of rules and regulations for the Government of Establishments Licensed under Chapter 138 of the General Laws (Alcoholic Beverage Laws) and these rules and regulations were adopted by the Selectmen. GAMBLING AND VICE All complaints concerning gaming activities were thoroughly investigated. Some of these complaints were found to be without basis in fact. In others, there was insufficient evidence to sub- stantiate a criminal complaint. All persons known to have been con- cerned and/or involved in gaming activity in the past or suspected of being currently concerned and/or involved in such activity, were kept under close surveillance. We will continue to maintain sur- veillance of such persons and if sufficient evidence can be obtained will prosecute. On occasion during the year it was necessary to request the assistance of the State Police in our investigation of suspected gam- ing activities in the town. In each instance such assistance was im- mediately forthcoming and rendered willingly. This department also made frequent inspections of establish- ments selling magazines, comic books, etc., with a view to prevent- ing the sale or display of obscene or pornographic literature or pictures. Although there are two or three establishments in town that require constant checking in this regard, in most instances the proprietors of establishments selling magazines, etc., maintain a self-imposed censorship and neither display nor sell anything of an offensive nature. TRAFFIC DIVISION CASES PROSECUTED IN COURT During the year ending 31 December 1962, a total of five hun- dred and forty-six (546) violations of the traffic laws were prose. cuted in the Second District Court of Eastern Middlesex at Waltham.

The Department of Public Works approved these recommendations and the necessary signs were erected at the di- rection of this departmnt. ANNUAL REPORTS — IM 303 During the year 196Z the police department had occasion to re- quest that hedges be removed or cut to 'a height not exceeding three feet in twenty-seven (27) different instances where said hedges were obstructing the view of vehicular traffic in violation of Chap- ter 6, Section 36 of the Town By-Laws. In each instance the parties concerned either cut the hedges as requested or removed them en- tirely. During the year ending 31 December 1962, nine (9) traffic surveys were made at the following locations: Rosedale Road Green Street Prentiss Street Arlington St. — Clarendon St. — Coolidge Hill Rd. — Crawford St. Nichols Ave. — Bigelow Avenue Coolidge Avenue French St. — Main Street Orchard Street Palfrey St. — Waverley Ave. JUVENILE DIVISION During the year ending 31 December 1962, two hundred and ninety five (295) complaints concerning juveniles were registered with the Crime Prevention Bureau. These complaints covered various offenses. Twenty-five (25) juveniles came from cities and towns other than Watertown . . . twenty-three boys and two girls. Juvenile cards were also made out on those from Watertown who became involved in complaints outside of Watertown which came to our attention. As a result of the two hundred and ninety-five (295) complaints, twenty-seven (27) juveniles appeared in Waltham District Court on a total of forty-sven (47) complaints. Some of these juveniles ap- peared on multiple charges while others had more than one ap- pearance in court on different occasions. All of the juveniles involved in court action were from Water- town, with the exception of one boy from another community. Every possible consideration was given each boy and girl before they were brought to court. Complaints involving juveniles not taken to court were handled in an informal manner after consultation with parents, clergy and teachers. 304 TOWN OF WATERTOWN 1962, stolen property recovered, restitution for money taken and repair of damage done by juveniles, amounted to $623.07. Many potentially dangerous articles were taken from juveniles, including the confiscation of ten (10) air rifles. None of these articles were returned.

During the year the members of the Auxiliary Force worked approximately 2,025 man-hours. Periods of major activity were Memorial Day, Fourth of July, Labor Day, Halloween and the Christmas Season. Members of the Auxiliary Force also performed traffic duty at least one night each week during the year. The Auxiliary Force, under Auxiliary Captain Thomas Sherry, were of invaluable assistance to the regular force during the year and are deserving of the highest praise for the excellent manner in which they carried out thir assigmmnts.

Respectfully submitted, EDWARD A. MURRAY Chief of Police ANNUAL REPORTS -- B63 307 REPORT OF THE WELFARE DEPARTMENT Pursuant to Chapter 3, Section 2 of the By-Laws of the Town of Watertown, I hereby submit my Annual Report for the year ending December 31, 1962. The greatest problem a Public Welfare Director is concerned with is the difficulty in creating a healthy image of the purposes and functions of the PUBLIC ASSISTANCE AGENCY "in action" and the method pursued by the Director in the fiscal and social direc- tions and the delegation of duties and functions. Despite my repeated efforts throughout the years to portray — and/or convey to Boards, Committees and the Public in general, misunderstanding still permeates those phases of the Agency work that should be best understood relative to the means utilized to protect the legal rights of both the public assistance recipient and the taxpayer. It must be remembered that each has his rights which by law cannot be transgressed. Money is the image that most resort to or utilize in the dis- cussion, study or general appraisal of the Public Assistance Agency. This image, although perhaps natural and a carry-over from depres- sion days, is false and can well lead to higher expenditures and waste, and result in a lower quality of services. Public assistance administration must maintain rigidity and yet demonstrate elasticity in specific areas, based always on reality and never on emotion. We must recognize certain inadequacies in certain individuals and treat them differently until such time as certain controls and services can be brought into play to better organize the affairs of such persons. Aside from the so-called "regu- lar grant" given the recipients for home and personal maintenance, the indigent person is assured of a full medical program including rehabilitative services and retraining, following evaluation of his capabiilties or incapacities resultant from our referral to the Massa- chusetts Rehabilitation Commission which probes and cultivates every potential resource to elevate the subject to his greatest level of pro- ductivity and social integration. The medical services rendered di- rectly from our Agency include physicians and hospital services, psychiatric, neuropsychiatric, psychological and clinical services, drugs, oxygen, dental services, ophthalmology, optometry, District Nursing services, podiatry, nursing home care when indicated, ambu- lance service, mortician service when required, transportation and miscellaneous items that may be required to facilitate the services. 308 TOWN OF WATERTOWN Also major and minor surgical fees as well as all ancillary services and appliances including training and utilization of same — coun- seling and the like is available. Over $400,000.00 of our 1962 Budget was expended for public medical assistance, involving only a varying 2% of our total popula- tion, or .085 of our population 65 years of age or over, — these figures, of course, indicate that medical costs are much higher, and services and incidents more likely among the older groups. These are the matters and/or items that people rail about, but which I refer to as the necessary elasticity of the public assistance program because they deal directly with, and supply the basic adequacies that a human being must have to eliminate or reduce physical and/or mental discomfort sufficiently to produce self motivation and/or the production of peace and comfort in degree to those who will not make it back and must be considered terminal cases. Although these services and expenditures are strongly supported and made available by the Agency, they are rigidly observed and bills for same indi- vidually checked with standards, formulas, time duration and the like, to limit or prevent abuses. All of this I consider our community function in social and human engineering. Proper maintenance pro- duces proper returns, and constant availability to these resources reduce anxiety on the part of most recipients, — thus better con- trolling the use and abuse of medical services. The rigidity that I say must be maintained is emphasized initially by the investigation of the basic eligibility factors and the application of whatever resources that the applicant has available or does possess. The investigatory aspects require a very close working relationship between the social and fiscal divisions. The success that we experience in this area depends extensively on the knowl- edge and ability that the fiscal division has of sociological factors and services so as to permit a smooth operation in the securing, directing, and maintenance of material in such a manner as to help portray the best possible picture of each individual. The greater part of this work involves investigatory material having to do with children's questionnaires and contribution forms, bank, salary, and insurance tracers, real estate inquiries, vital sta- tistics having to do with births, marirages, deaths, divorces, legal separations or separations by agreement and the like, — others are hospital records, medical reports, Old Age and Survivors Insurance benefits at every level, and the evaluation of all this material to determine whether or not the social services division needs to secure more information or to pass the material on to a supervisory level for further direction. ANNUAL REPORTS — 1863 309 Individual case control, a method unique to our Agency which maintains a constant control, on a daily basis, of the client Contact Section, Budgetary Section, Special Services and Reinvestigation Control and Verification Sections of each case, coupled with the equitable and prudent use of the so-called practices of rigidity and elasticity, have permitted Watertown to maintain consistently a lower average case cost than the Greater Boston Welfare District consisting of thirty-eight (38) communities including the City of Boston, — and at the same time maintaining a very high reputation for special services rendered not only to the clientele but to a goodly portion of the citizenry as well. In addition to the above supports, in behalf of both the recipient and the tax payer, an appeal process exists by statute which permits any aggrieved applicant or recipient to appeal his case before the Appeal Division of the State Department of Public Welfare, — the decision of which is final and binding upon the local Agency. Lastly, may I make mention of the fact that there is no private social work agency of any sort located in Watertown. The iaverage community of this size has at least one or more such agencies to which "service cases" can be referred and case treatment or further referral(s) made. Consequently, about half the people who appear at the Agency are strictly social service cases and receive no cash assistance, but as a result of case work practices, are referred to one or more private agencies or clinics suitable to the individual's needs and/or treatment. In spite of the foregoing, the Statistical Sheet herewith attached will indicate that in general, i.e. case-wide and money-wise, public assistance is still on a rather strong upsurge, and as mentioned by me in my Annual Report of 1960, will continue thus until reduced, through the enactment of Federal Legislation broadening the Federal Security Administration, Division of Old Age and Survivors Insur- ance, to bring about a National Health and Security Program free from public tax and payable by the individual through payroll de- ductions. Last year in the final paragraph of my Annual Report, I stated that 1962 would bring about greater changes requiring extensive ad- justments in both fiscal and social areas. This situation came about even more strongly than I anticipated. Federal requirements have been greatly strengthened. Greater case work is being demanded with particular emphasis being placed on the reduction of case load levels for social workers and greater supervision of said activity. Actually the social case work services have broadened more in 1962 than the previous twenty-two (22) years. It must be under- 310 TOWN OF WATERTOWN stood that if the requirements of the Federal Government are not met, our Federal Grants and State Reimbursements will not be forth- coming. You will note that I have asked for an additional Supervi- sor, a new Social Worker and a Clerk. From my observations these will be our minimum requirements, personnel-wise, for 1963. Strong supervision in a public assistance agency has obviously become an absolute requisite due to the rapid turnover of social work staff. Social Workers are no longer a steadfast group but transfer to other communities on a basis of convenience or better opportunities. You will further note that certain Office Equipment has been requested and seems paramount at this time. For example, each of our Type- writers, at my request, was examined by a representative from the Royal Typewriter Company. According to his findings, not one of our eight (8) Typewriters are operating efficiently and cannot be made to perform more efficiently due to general wear and tear and that four (4), in particular, must be replaced. Of the four (4), one (1) cannot be repaired and the others, parts are no longer available. Considering the extensiveness of the changes that took place during 1962, budgetarily, I feel that the Agency functioned in a most efficient manner. You will recall that I discussed the difficulty antici- pated in the integration of Old Age Assistance and Medical Aid for the Aged, and the extensiveness to which our expenditures could go without close supervision and utilization of all possible resources. The results of the integration of these two categories are as follows: .0704 equals the decrease in our Old Age Assistance expenditures, or $24,285.00. .0447 equals the increase expended in Medical Aid for the Aged, or $13,118.00. .0257 indicates percentage-wise the differential in our anticipated O.A.A. case load. $11,167.00 indicates the overall saving over that anticipated in the integration of both forms of Assistance. Aid to Dependent Children as projected the first of the year and aided by broadened concepts and services during the year, increased our expenditures by .073 or $26,179.00. Disability Assistance, always unpredictable because of the very nature of its purpose, experience a reduction in expenditures of .16 or $14,507.25. General Relief referred to by me as the "Residual Category" of Assistance was decreased by .47 or $12,- 725.00, — the main cause of this being the constant en- deavor to establish each case whenever possible on one of the other categories where Federal and State funds ANNUAL REPORTS — 1963 311 would be forthcoming, and the constant coordinating and strengthening of the investigatory procedures, particularly in relation to non-support, and intensifying case work in the areas of domestic relations, alcoholism, and mental health, and demonstrating stronger supervision in the area of collateral as well as primal resources. Our Contingency expenditures were .058 more than expected and as aforementioned a new increase in 1963 must be anticipated. As regards salaries, Chapter 579 became effective during 1962, regulating salaries in accordance with the Welfare Compensation Plan. It is momentarily stable, although it is strongly rumored that other changes upward are being entertained from a State and Federal level. My salary, however, has for many years been treated individually and with exception. I believe that it was in 1956 that the salary of the Director of Public Welfare was made equivalent to that of all other major Department Heads, eight in number, on the basis of stated fact to Civil Service that the salary of the Director should be equivalent because his functions and responsibilities were equal to all the others. This premise was continued until 1960 when an attempt was made to disrupt this equality by increasing two of the eight. Reconsideration after argumentation brought about amendments to raise four of the major Department Heads to equiva- lent salaries, — the other four having to remain behind because of legal technicalities. The Town Meeting in 1961, however, over- whelmingly reversed this situation and again made these Depart- ment Heads equivalent in salaries. Now, another attempt is being made to cause a division at these levels, and I understand the basis for the action is that the "responsibilities" of two Department Heads are greater than the rest. My twenty-five years of experience as a Department Head forces me to challenge this opinion of the Person- nel Board, and I respectfully submit, attached herewith, my reply to said Board concerning the matter and accordingly, as your Director, seek your support and cooperation in my efforts to maintain my standing that I worked twenty-five years to develop. Thanking you for all courtesies and assistance rendered in the past, I remain Respectfully yours, JOSEPH F. MURRAY Director. 312 TOWN OF WATERTOWN REPORT OF THE SCHOOL DEPARTMENT SCHOOL CQA&iT.L-t-r:r: VINCENT H. O'CONNEL.L, Chairman Term expires 1964 NANCY R. DEVINE, Secretary Term expires 1965 JOSEPH J.

This year, your School Committee approved my recommendation whereby the duties of the heads of the Mathematic & Science, Foreign Language and English Departments were extended to in- clude the Junior High Schools and they were given the title of coordinators of their respective subjects. MODERN MATHEMATICS What Is Modern Math? An attempt to develop concepts of mathematics which are ideas that we think about. Doing Mathematics consist of thinking about concepts rather than arranging symbols upon paper. Hence Modern Math is essentially a new approach in Mathematics teaching in which we emphasize both structure of numbers and the operations involv- ing them. It is an attempt to present mathematics as a living sub- ject that reflects its past history, recognizes its achievemens in the present and reveals its potential for the future. Why Was It Started It was started because of the changes in mathematics at the present time. These changes have been so extensive and so far reaching in their implications, and so profound, that they can be described only as a revolution. Many are surprised to learn that Mathematics is a live, active, and a growing subject. Golden Age of Mathematics Perhaps more mathematics has been created during this period than during all the rest of history. We are merely keeping in step with these revolutionary changes of our times with curriculum changes in our school mathematics program. Besides new discoveries in pure mathematics, another major cause was automation and the automation revolution; these are principally machines that control machines. Long distance telephone dialing and Guided Missiles with their complicated computers and control mechansms are two impressive examples of automation. The solution of the complicated design problems created by automation required the introduction of the large scale, high speed, automatic computing machines. The value of these machines is two fold — first that they can do the most complicated problems in split seconds and secondly that they can do computations which formerly were con- sidered impossible. ANNUAL REPORTS — 1963 317 What Is Meant By Binary? To make the automatic computing machines more practical a new number system was needed. The binary system uses a number system with only two symbols, the numerals 0 and 1 to represent any number no matter how large or small that we can represent with our "base ten" which requires 10 symbols, 0, 1, 2, 3, . . . . . 9. Since an electronic switch requires only two possible positions, on or off, a machine can represent numbers by a series of, on and off, switches. A light "on" may represent 1, and a light "off" may repre- sent the number 0. For example the numbers from 1 to 10 are represented as follows in the Binary System: 1, 10, 11, 100, 101, 110, 111, 1000, 1001, 1010. When, Where, Who Started It? Studies in Mathematics curriculum changes have been going on for the past ten years. Educators in mathematics at all levels from the Universities down to the primary grades felt the need of updating the mathematics curriculum to keep in step with our times. The College Board Examination Study Group, the Illinois Program, the School Mathematics Study Group at Yale, The Boston College Mathe- matics Institute under Father Bezuska, S.J. and the Ball State Teachers College were some of the major study groups studying these curriculum changes in mathematics. These study groups have been financed by large grants from the National Science Foundation and other private Foundations. How Does A School System Start A New Program Such as Modern Mathematics? First of all, Administrative support is a must. Teachers must be convinced that this new math will lead to better understanding of basic mathematic concepts in their students, and teacher training programs must be initiated. Parents must be enlightened and con- vinced that modern mathematics is really mathematics. Another fact that must be considered is at what grade level to start the Modern Math program. We are now teaching the new program to four classes in the eight and ninth grades, in our Junior Highs, and to two classes, each in the 10th and 11th grades in our High School. Teachers enthusiasm and student response has been most encourag- ing and we are now planning to enlarge the new program to more classes and include some of the 7th grades. After a transitional period of two to three years, all our pupils from grades 7 — 12 will be taking a mathematical curriculum that will be in keeping with our time. 318 TOWN OF WATERTOWN Teacher Training Program To make the new program work an In Service Course in modern mathematics was instituted. This course meets for one hour each Tuesday afternoon in Room 104 at the Senior High School for thirty weeks. This is a three credit course to meet the requirements lead- ing to a M.A. in Math at Boston College. The cost of the course is $95.00. Half of the cost is subsidized by the School Department. Twenty-four teachers are taking the course for credit and ap- proximately another thirty are auditing the course. Among those auditing the course are several principals and one retired teacher. With the support of the School Department and teacher demand the same course or a more advanced course will be given again next year. READING DEPARTMENT Elementary Schools In addition to the regular reading instruction that is carried on in each grade by the elementary school classroom teacher, a remedial reading program is offered as one of several special service pro- grams. It is conducted by consultants from the Reading Department who perform two principal types of reading service in these schools: 1. Intensive individualized training for children in the lower elementary grades whose reading is below level but whose learning ability is average or higher. 2. Consultation service for teachers and principals concerning the teaching of reading and the handling of reading diffi- culties in the classroom situation. This philosophy of reading is consistent with current thinking in the field and represents a change in the remedial approach of a few years ago. Now it is felt that children who are experinecing reading difficulties are to have the individualized assistance of read- ing specialists outside the classroom situation, it should be given principally in the early elementary grades, with a second major effort in the early junior high years where necessary. Children selected for this instruction should be returned to regular class- room reading as rapidly as possible. Further, it is felt that such special assistance should be limited to those children who are deemed to be "remediable" after careful screening. The reading consultants should also work closely with classroom teachers, as- sisting in - grouping and planning reading work, and providing special reading accessories and materials. ANNUAL REPORTS — IM 319 This newer approach to remedial reading has been going on in our elementary grades during the past two school years. The prin cipal efforts of the reading specialists have been limited to those who met the remediable requirements in grades two and three,with a scattering of children from grades four, five, and six. The children are organized in their own school in groups ranging in size from two to seven, with most groups containing four or five.. They meet with the reading specialists twice a week outside the classroom in special reading periods lasting about forty minutes. Special remedial reading procedures and materials are used and regular follow-up work that is to be done by the student in the classroom or at home is part of the plan. Each reading consultant devotes two half-days each week visiting classroom teachers and providing them with professional assistance and materials as needed This past year they conducted a reading institute for the teachers of grades four, five, and six in each dis- trict, using materials designed and written by reading experts of the Science Research Associates of Chicago. The meetings were held one afternoon a month for eight months with each teacher being provided with a monthly set of comprehensive materials dealing with the philosophy, organization, and teaching of reading in these grades. Junior High Schools Last fall the School Committee, after a study of the reading problems at the secondary school level, voted to inaugurate a com- prehensive reading skills program in the Junior High Schools. Two additional consultants were appointed to the Reading Department, one to start January 1963 and the other in September. They are to work principally in the Junior High Schools carrying out the new reading program. The Junior high reading skills program will encompass: 1. The organization of a regular reading skill program for all students in all grades, meeting in regular reading classes two periods a week. 2. The introduction of special developmental reading groups, designed to improve the reading skills of the better than average student in speed and comprehension. 3. The establishment of intensive remedial or corrective reading classes for students who are above average in learn- ing ability :but whose reading is below level. 320 TOWN OF WATERTOWN The reading consultants will teach both the developmental and remedial reading classes. The developmental classes will average twelve to eighteen students per class and will meet two periods a week for a limited time. The remedial reading classes, like those in the elementary schools, will range in size up to seven students, with most classes averaging around five. They will also meet two periods a week for a limited time. In addition, the consultants will provide professional leadership and assistance for the teachers of the reading classes and other subjects where reading is an important tool, like science and social studies. In-service programs and workshops will be planned and conducted and consultation periods will be held at regular inter- vals with teachers concerning the improvement of reading skills.

The follow-tip survey was undertaken by means of a letter and one-page questionnaire mailed to all who graduated in June of '61. Postcard reminders were also sent, as well as telephone calls made, to those not replying in a few weeks. The survey was start- ed and completed approximately one year following graduation. This lapse of time after graduation has the advantage of allowing for some crystalization of values in regard to future plans. 2. The percentage of graduates reporting and included in the tabulations was 98.3 percent of those graduating. This is an in- crease of nearly 2 percent over the previous year and the highest percentage reporting in the series of surveys. ANNUAL REPORTS - 1963 329 3. The percentage of graduates continuing post- secondary education is above the 40 percent mark for the eighth consecutive year, nearly 47 percent of those graduating are participating in higher education. 4. Those continuing post-secondary education include nearly 84 percent of College Preparatory graduates, 26 percent of Gener- al, 13 percent of Business, and 6 percent of Industrial Arts curri- culum graduates. 5. Fifty-eight percent of the 164 graduates continuing their education are attending four year degree granting colleges or uni versities as follows: 19.5 percent Liberal Arts, 12.8 percent Busi- ness Administration, 11.7 percent Teacher Training, 5.0 percent Teacher Training, 5.0 percent Technical and Engineering, 4.2 per- cent Fine Arts, 1.8 percent Physical Education and 12 percent miscellaneous. 6. The remaining forty-two ,percent of those continuing edu- cation were attending schools and colleges below the degree grant- ing level as follows: 10.4 percent Secretarial Training, 9.8 percent Junior College 8.5 percent Technical, 6.7 percent Prepartory School, 3.6 percent Nurses Training, and 3.0 percent miscellaneous. 7. Of those attending four year degree granting colleges 68.4 percent are attending colleges or universities within the Boston area, 6.3 percent in another New England state, and 15.8 percent outside of New England. S. Every two years the Massachusetts Department of Educa- tion conducts a study on the number and percentage of public school graduates of the previous June continuing education beyond high school. A comparison of the Watertown percentage for the Class of '61 continuing educaton with those of all Public High Schools of Massachusetts for the year 1960 shows that Watertown percentages are generally below the state level of that year.

The number regularly employed, including those in military service and girls married, is equal to about one-half of the gradu- ates. Included among these are 13.7 percent from the College Pre- paratory curriculum, 83 percent Business, 68 percent General, and 87.6 percent from the Industrial Arts curriculum graduates. 10. The Business and Industrial Arts curricula are vocational and generally terminal in nature, and the General curriculum may be either vocational, academic, or a combination of each. The above percentages, including the 26 percent General and the 84 percent College Preparatory continuing education, indicate that each cur- riculum is generally meeting the needs for which it was intended. Of the College Preparatory graduates regularly employed, many indicated that it was temporary, until sufficient money could be acquired for college. 11. The graduates regularly employed, excluding those in Mil- itary Service, were distributed as follows: 47 percent working in Watertown, 30 percent in communities contiguous to Watertown, and 23 percent in Boston. 12. The mean weekly salary reported was $63.58, $2.86 higher than reported the year before and $5.71 than reported five years ago. Five percent reported salaries under $50. per week, 31.3 per- cent salaries between $50. and $59., 33.4 percent between $60. and $69., 17 percent between $70. and $79., and 9.6 percent $80. and above. 13. Of the three graduates reporting being unemployed, one was due to illness, one to a temporary layoff, and one had just completed training and was to start employment shortly. 14. The percentage of graduates reporting as married con- tinues about the same. This study indicated 5.1 percent, 18 girls, were married within one year of high school graduation.

Percentage of Senior High School Membership only — 1.6 1. The term drop-out refers to students who withdraw from school before completion of year and who do not attend school elsewhere. Those withdrawing to attend another school are called transfers and are not counted as drop-outs. 2. The percentage of drop-outs for the year 1961262 in Water- town grades 9-12 is the smallest in the past twelve years, during which time these studies have been made. The percentage has gra- dually diminished from 6.7 percent in the year '50251 to 1.3 percent in '61262. This is about 1 percent below that of the previous year. 3. The greatest attrition occurred in Grade 11, in which grade were two-thirds of those dropping-out. The percentage of drop-outs for the Senior High School alone was 1.6 about one percent lower than for'60-161. 4. If the drop-out rate for '60261 should remain relatively con- stant for the next three years, it would indicate that we were re- taining in school to graduate a fraction more than 9 out of 10 of the students entering in grade 9. This is deducted by multiplying 1.3, this year's drop-out percentage, by 4, the number of years cov- ered in grades 9-12, producing an overall four-year drop-out per- centage of 5.2 percent, or a retaining percentage of 94.8. 5. The percentage of drop-outs for the past four years, in- cuding the '61262 figures, were 1.3, 2.2, 2.5, and 2.3, a total of 8.3 percent. Thus, in the past four school years Watertown has gradu- ated 91.7 percent of the students entering grade 9. (The number transferring into and out of grades 9-12 each year approximately balances each other.): 336 TOWN OF WATERTOWN ANNUAL REPORT OF THE BOARD OF LIBRARY TRUSTEES BOARD OF LIBRARY TRUSTEES 1961-1962 CHARLES T.

Mannix Junior Building Custodian, North Branch REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES OF THE FREE PUBLIC LIBRARY To the Citizens of Watertown: In the closing weeks of 1962 occurred the death of Miss Lydia Masters whose service to this Library should not go unnoted. Miss Masters' entire working life was spent in the service of the Watertown Public Library. She served as Library Assistant under the late Solon Whitney who was the first Librarian appointed by the town at the founding of the Library. In 1918 Miss Masters became Librarian, the second in the history of this Library and held that position until her retirement in 1948. Under her administration the Library developed to the outstanding position in suburban Bos- ton which it now holds, and librarians trained, and inspired by her spread her influence widely. Miss Masters was associated with this Library for one half the years of its existence, and for one third of its lifetime directed it. It will long bear the mark of her influence. The town Meeting partially met our recommendations for new salary scales and in consequence we have been able to operate with a full staff. We are, however, renewing a request which was not granted in the highest professional grade where responsibility for a] department is required. The growing load in the Children's De- partment has impelled us to request an additional assistant there. The Trustees express their thanks to Miss Yerxa and her staff whose service to the public brings us frequent praise of our Library. Respectfully submitted, CILARLES T. BURKE, Chairman 338 TOWN OF WATERTOWN REPORT OF THE LIBRARIAN To the Trustees of the Watertown Free Public Library: The 95th Annual Report of the Watertown Free Public Library is herewith submitted. PERSONNEL Although at year's end all positions were filled, a considerable turnover in staff was experienced in 1962. Resignations were all from the college group. With one exception these staff members left to pursue graduate work for a degree in library science. The Library must expect to lose its college graduates because the maximum salary of $4680 for this group is too low (the legal minimum for teachers with a bachelor's degree is now $4500) and, moreover, these able young people know the wisdom of equipping themselves with a library school degree. Whenever possible, the library encourages them to remain on the staff and to study part time. Two staff members who have been studying while they worked full time have now completed work for their library school degree, bringing the total number of library school graduates to six in addition to the Librarian. We know that this satisfactory state of affairs is transitory at best. The Library's maximum salary of $5255 for its first professional grade is lower than the average library school graduates without any experience at all are being offered today. The situation as it relates to the Library's Senior Department Heads with long experience and supervisory responsibilities is even worse. The maximum for these people is $5530 only $275 more than the maximum for the Junior Grade, and again just about the average being paid beginning library school graduates. Resignations and appointments were as follows: Miss Regina Krajewski, General Assistant, Main Library, re- signed in February to complete graduate work as Simmons for her library school degree. The position was filled for three months by Mr. Dexter Morrill, a graduate of Stanford University. Mrs. Brenda Sullivan, a graduate of Boston University, was appointed full time by the Board of Library Trustees beginning work in August. Miss Wendy MacDonald, Assistant, Main Library, resigned to complete her work for a library school degree at Syracuse University. The position was filled by the appointment of Miss Susan Williams, a graduate of Northwestern University. Miss Barbara List, General Assistant, East Branch Library left work for her library science ANNUAL REPORTS — lass 339 degree at the University of North Carolina. This position was filled by the appointment of Miss Joan Serino, a graduate of Regis College. Mrs. Susie Abel, Assistant at the North Branch Library, resigned in February for family reasons. In her place, the Library Trustees appointed Mrs. Dawn Friedman as Children's Librarian Mrs. Friedman is a graduate of the University of Minnesota. BUILDINGS Maintaining the library buildings is an almost daily business and often is concerned with minor work done by carpenters, plumbers, electricians, window washers, efc.. This year some major and un- expected work was necessary. A new oil burner had to be installed at the West Branch Library. Two new oil tanks were purchased for the North Branch Library, and at the request of the Fire Depart- ment, a fire door was installed at -the entrance to the boiler room, East Branch Library. A major leak in the basement wall of the East Branch Library building was taken care of by the Highway Depart- ment under the direction of Mr. Dwyer, Superintendent. This co- operation is greatly appreciated. Through the Special Maintenance appropriation, all copper val- leys, hips and ridges of the original Main Library building were re- placed with new; thus completing work begun the year before when new copper gutters were installed. Through the Special Maintenance account, also, the Children's Room of the East Branch Library was painted as well as the outside trim of the building. Appreciation is expressed by the Librarian for the good work of the building custodians which is reflected in the generally clean and shining appearance of library property. USE OF THE LIBRARY Diversified operations of the library are reflected in the many services it offers: books for home use, books for reference, books for school classrooms, pictures, films, music records, and of course staff assistance at all points. Statistics relating to the general use of materials is appended, but specific comments are in order. In 1962, the number of regis- tered borrowers was 13,561 or about 35% of the total population. This is a slight drop over the year before and is due perhaps to the transient nature of a percentage of the population. 340 TOWN OF WATERTOWN At the same time the circulation, of books and other materials for home use increased from 297,667 in 1961 to 303,481 in 1962 or 1.91%. This Library in the last few years has not experienced any serious drops in the circulation of books for home use, but neither has the circulation soared .to new heights. Some of the reasons for this are that Watertown is notexperiencing a boom in building be- cause there is very little unoccupied land. Although our libraries are filled with students, their assignments are so heavy that they are not borrowing as many books as they normally would just to read for pleasure. Also, the amount spent for books greatly affects circulation. Watertown's book appropriation of $19,800 is too low to meet the standard set in the State Aid for Libraries law. The Board of Library Trustees is asking for an appropriation of $25,000 for 1963, and it is greatly hoped that the Finance Committee will approve this figure. Of interest is the fact that in 1962 the Framing- ham Public Library had a book appropriation of $28,000 and that it is requesting an increase for 1963. In 1962 Watertown added 5,574 books to the library collection, while Framingham added 10,612. Books are the library's stock in trade. The power to purchase and to provide books in adequate numbers in all departments has a direct correlation with book use. Of the total number of books circulated at the Main Library, 62.22% were non-fiction as compared with 58.34% last year. For the whole system, non-fiction accounted for 47.24% of the total. The percentages are significant when they are compared to the situation which was normal years ago. In 1904 (the first year when compara- ble figures were available) only 31.11% of the total circulation was non-fiction; in 1939 non-fiction was 38.69910 of the whole; in 1949 it was only 39.7% of the whole. By 1959, the pendulum had swung the other way with non-fiction running ahead of fiction in use. The trend to a heavy use of non-fiction, ever increasing in price, has made larger book appropriations absolutely essential. This trend is directly related to the Library's role as the fore- most source of informal education in the community and an indis- pensable factor in formal education on the college level, and on the elementary and secondary levels as provided by local school sys- tems. During the afternoon, evening, and week ends, the reference Department at the Main Library was a busy place. Tables and chairs were filled; people were consulting the catalog, using the book stacks and seeking assistance from the reference librarians. This Department is equipped in books and staff to give superior service, and it has. The kinds of information required by adult users was limitless; for instance, scientific information for the unscientific lay- man, business information relating to United States exports and im- ANNUAL REPORTS — 1963 341 ports, names and addresses of all ,types of industries all over the country, financial statistics; information on ways to make a living, on child guidance, retarded children, repair of automobiles, and all kinds of appliances, etc., as well as specific answers to any kind of factual question. College and technical school students taxed library resources heavily for material relating to courses. Accelerated college programs designed to develop students in the sciences, govern- ment, etc., have increased demands in this Department in every way. Current library literature (i.e., the LIBRARY JOURNAL, WIL- SON'S BULLETIN, ALA BOOK LIST, etc.,) teem with articles with such titles as Students in Libraries, Chaos and candy bars, Seattle Case History, all of which discuss the tremendous onslaught on libraries being made by students all over the country. The following is quoted from the WILSON LIBRARY BULLE- TIN, November 1962, page 242: "The galloping increase in the school population has come into collision with a new pedagogic emphasis on `individualized' study, the wide and varied reading of non-fiction book materials and library research assignments. This collision has precipitated an explosive increase in library use by students." So great is this use that many libraries find that they have neither the space, the books, or the staff to take care of the students who come for help in school assignments. The result is often severe problems of discipline, harassment and crowding out of adult patrons, book mutilation and theft and general frustration. So great is the prob- lem that several days of the 1963 American Library Association Conference will be devoted to discussing it. The Watertown Library has felt this explosive use of the library by students, of course. Fortunately, one half of the main floor at the East Branch Library is devoted to young adults. Fortunately also, in planning for the new wing added to the Main Library in 1956, provision was made for the establishment and development of a Young Adult Department, adjacent as it should be to the Central Reference Department and the adult book stacks, with a Young Adult Librarian serving as consultant to young people. Because of this physical layout, the Watertown Library has been able to ac- commodate students and at the same time to provide areas where adults and college students may use the library comfortably. In his year-end report the Young Adult Librarian said: "The trend of the last few years toward the upgrading of school assign- ments continued. This resulted in: 342 TOWN OF WATERTOWN 1. Reference questions of a research rather than informational nature. 2. The greater dependence of the Young Adult Department on adult resources. This was especially noticeable in the science and science project areas. A further consequence of this trend was in the purchase of young adult books which leaned more toward adult levels than previously. Also, there is a tendency for 11th and 12th graders to think that they have outgrown the Young Adult Room. Increasingly, their books have been drawn from adult departments. This general curriculum upgrading is important for the future. It may portend changes, such as admissions of 7th and Sth grade students to the Young Adult Room." So far, in dealing with increased use of libraries by the students, we have experienced no unusual disciplinary problems or mutilation of books. The Library has had some trouble in handling massive school assignments given without notice by teachers. Moreover, the library is not satisfied that at all times its book stock was adequate to provide everything that was needed. Obviously, closer contact with teachers and with the high school librarian is necessary in order to work out better-co-ordination between the Library and the schools. Such a heavy demand for information and knowledge by the town's students is so important that the town must be prepared to appropriate the book money necessary to meet the demand. In addition to recognizing the need for book appropriation, it is hoped that out of the accelerated use of the Library by students, there will come a wider knowledge of the part which this Library plays in the educational programs of the schools, and that this understanding will be reflected in salaries for the professional staff which compare favorably with ,teachers salaries. Considerable space has been given to discussing student use of the Library because of its importance. However, the public library has the responsibility of serving all segments of the population on an equal basis. The book collection must be kept in balance with the general adult reader in mind for only in his local public library does the adult have access to the wide variety of books needed for his continuing education and enlightenment in a critical period that cries, out for an informed public. It is only there also that he can find limitless material for his reading pleasure. ANNUAL REPORTS — 1963 343 A goodly proportion of the book money was spent for current books to satisfy these interests, which touch all subject areas, i.e., biography, history, travel, science, international affairs, economics, education, health, religion, etc., and for special titles both fiction and non-fiction which are currently in great demand. In 1962 adults borrowed 122,196 books for home use (as well as 6,177 music albums and 72 films). Many letters were received at- testing to the courteous and helpful services which patrons received at circulation and information desks at the main library and its branch libraries. ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF STAFF CONTRIBUTIONS It is impossible in this kind of report to cover the excellent work done by the staff in all areas of the library system. Certainly no report would be adequate without mention of the Catalog Department and its work in processing new books and maintaining the card catalog. The card catalog, of course, is the key to all the resources of the Library and so it is essential to all library services. This year the Catalog Department reported among many other accomplishments, continued progress in improving, up-dating and revising the main catalog and the shelf list, as well as doing considerable work on the music record catalog. During the year, seven attractive lists of recent books were compiled and mimeo- graphed for distribution. This year exhibit work in every service area was original and effective. Children's Librarians made a fine contribution to their Depart- ments by an almost 100% visiting of all school rooms, by having classes visit libraries, by holding story hours, educational film pro- grams, and by organizing the summer reading club. The numbers of children who used the Children's Departments for assistance in school assignments continued to fill rooms to more than capacity at times. Children, like young adults, are being intellectually stimulated today; they hear and see informational programs on all subjects, they comprehend scientific developments incomprehensible to many older people. Today, the Library must provide the books which today's child needs. and demands. 344 TOWN OF WATERTOWN FRIENDS OF THE WATERTOWN PUBLIC LIBRARY The Friends of the Watertown Public Library is slowly growing in number and in strength. Its Executive Board met regularly each month and two open meetings were held. The annual meeting and business meeting in May; and in November, a meeting attended by about 75 or 100 people at which Mr. Foster Palmer showed slides of a recent trip taken through Russia and some of the satellite countries. It is encouraging to note the interest in, and knowledge of the Library which has developed among the Friends. As time goes on, more ambitious programs will be undertaken. Meanwhile, the identification of this group with the Library is tremendously im- portant and will grow more so as its influence increases. REGIONAL LIBRARY SERVICE THROUGH STATE AID Today, Massachusetts libraries face a tremendous opportunity for change and growth, through the establishment of rebional library service under the bill which provides state aid to free public libraries and which became law in 1960. So far only one part, Section 19-A, providing direct grants to towns for libraries has been in operation. Under this Section, Watertown received $8,209.32 in 1961 and $9,773 in 1962. The second part of the law provides for the establishment of Regional Libraries in several areas of the state. In early 1963 final plans for the eastern region will have been approved by the Board of Free Public Library Commissioners and the Boston Public Library will begin to serve as the Regional Library for this area. Water- town may then call on the Regional Library for reference and re- search services beyond those that this Library can supply. The Regional Library will serve as an inter-library loan agency. This in itself will be a tremendous boon to the area for all requests for books will be sent to one strong center which will be able to supply very many titles itself or to locate them. In 1962, the Watertown Library borrowed 99 books from other libraries and loaned 180. This means that a lot of time was spent by the Reference Department in locating books and doing the attendant paper work, while at the same time other metropolitan libraries were engaged in the same thing. What the ultimate in available services will be is unknown at this writing, but in all likelihood it may include circulating exhibits, the borrowing of films and records and perhaps in-service-training, and the cooperative cataloging of record albums. ANNUAL REPORTS — 1963 345 An important aspect of the state wide regional program is that a system of libraries will be established which will strengthen the whole library situation and eventually make possible a free access to needed library services no matter where an individual lives. OF SPECIAL NOTE Several of the staff and the Librarian have worked on commit- tees of the Massachusetts Library Association and participated in meetings of that Association as well as those of other library clubs. It is a great satisfaction to note here that a signal professional honor has come to one of the Library staff and through her, to this Library. Mrs. Ruth Elphick, Children's Librarian, East Branch Library, has been invited to give the Hewins lecture in 1964 at the Conference of the New England LibraryAssociation. In 1946 the Hewins Lecture- ship was established by Mr. Frederick G. Melcher, who also was instrumental in establishing the Caldecott and Newbury awards. This lectureship was set up as a tribute to Miss Caroline M. Hewins, born in Roxbury, Massachusetts, famous as Children's Librarian of the Public Library of Hartford, Connecticut and a library pioneer in developing children's literature and library service to children. Since the beginning, the lectures have been of such outstanding excellence that they have become one of the highlights of the New England Library Association conferences. To be invited to be a Hewins Lec- turer is considered one of the greatest honors that a Children's Li- brarian could receive. MISS LYDIA W. MASTERS — 1876-1962 Although the Chairman of the Board of Library Trustees has written in his report of Miss Lydia Masters' death, certainly this report should include a personal tribute to Miss Masters from all on the library staff who had the privilege of being associated with her and of working under her guidance. Miss Masters was one of the outstanding librarians of her time. To us, she was a source of great inspiration and she exerted a tremendous influence on our library careers. More than any other one individual, she was responsible for the development of the Watertown Public Library and it stands today as a splendid memorial to her. 346 TOWN OF WATERTOWN ACKNOWLEDGMENTS In closing I should like to acknowledge with thanks the fine cooperation the Library has received this year from so many other town departments; the Police and Fire Departments, ,the Highway Department, the Wire Department, the Tree Department, the Recre- ation Department, and the Departments of the Selectmen, the Auditor, the Treasurer, the Town Clerk and the Purchasing Agent. Appreciation goes to the Garden Club for the beautiful plant sent to the Library for the Christmas holidays. The many gifts of books, as well as music records, have been acknowledged individually. To the Library staff and to the building custodians, I express my warm appreciation for work that has been well done. To the Board of Library Trustees go my thanks for continued encouragement and support. Respectfully submitted, CATHARINE M.

ANNUAL REPORTS — 1963 351 REPORT Of THE TREASURER I respectfully submit the following report for the year 1962: Various state and town officials have reported to me that they find my reports most interesting to read. I am very happy to build up a reading public as it seems town reports have just been taken for granted; for years. Of course, there are some who can't find any appetite for my writings, but that is to be expected; we can't please everybody. There are others who rush to the Town Clerk's office to obtain my report when it is printed and then make believe they haven't read it; but I can recognize my reading public, by Just looking them in the eye. In any event, I am most happy to report of our 1962 experiences, to all my dear readers. SPACE Last year we reported on the crowded conditions in the Trea- surer's office. The Town Hall was surveyed by architect Paul G. Feloney and I was happy to read in his suvey that "the Treasurer's office was badly inadequate, desks crowded, counter and windows need enlargement, coin counting for meters noisy, meter repairs done in office, which is heavily used by the Public." This certainly corroborates the stand taken by the Treasurer last year in having to practically fight for two feet, even, if we had to throw in the wall of Berlin. It is almost fantastic, the Treasurer's office has the smallest vault space in the Town hall, yet it stores the most valuable pos- sessions. We pray, that some day men with courage will come in and alleviate the situation; and it can be done, without the expen- diture of a great deal of money and without tearing the Town Hall apart. CREDIT UNION CARDS To my brother and colleague, tax collector John J. Kennedy, I wish to publicly and profusely thank for bringing to my atten- tion the fact that we were not complying with Mass. General Laws Chapter 149, Section 178-B; in that authorizations in writing for the deductions of amounts from payrolls for credit union purposes, were not on file in the Treasurer's office. Even the state auditors had not brought this fact to our attention; but my good brother came through for me and saved the day. Of course, I can't relate herewith what stirred him into such action but I can say a certain Town official of contemporary surroundings was called a B 352 TOWN OF WATERTOWN because he wouldn't send over a certain pay check on a platter. However, we had a lot of fun and the Credit Union officials are responding splendidly in obtaining for this Department, the requir- ed authorization cards. Thanks again, John! PARKING METERS We replaced the meters on Baptist Walk and resurfaced the area taking out the ugly train-track :bumpers. Our all day park- ing area was expanded with the former railroad property between Cross and Church streets, paved and meters installed. We also widened drive-ways and turn around areas to make it easier for the driving public. Our meter income has increased and we expect even greater revenue in 1963. ANONYMOUS FUND This year we received the total amount of $400.00 in our an- onymous fund. This represents a total of $501.00 received since May of 1961. Again, I wish to state that the Treasurer's office wel- comes anonymous payments of loans received and we invite any and all to step right up and make any payments you think are due the Town. I'll be glad to meet in confidence anyone who wishes to engage in this enterprise and will be happy to make any necessary budgetary arrangements. I know there are some who should step- up and may need a little help; please feel free to call upon me at any time. I mean this in all sincerity and to those who do have the courage to step-up — I say, God bless you! ILLEGAL VOUCHERS During the past year there seemed to be a rash of illegal vouch- ers put through by various Town Officers, who should know bet- ter. In one week, this office stopped $1250.00 worth of such vouch- ers and really had a battle with officials trying to put people al- ready on Town pensions on the current Town payrolls. I have no objection to this .procedure, except that it is absolutely against the law. If they wish to condone this practice they should go to the Legislature and amend the law. Of course, these tactics put an un- fair burden on the Treasurer and it is really amusing to see articles put in the warrant and bills filed in the Legislature to legalize such payments, lawfully stopped by the Treasurer. If the Town employees and the Townspeople ever wake up as to what's going on — with all the favoritism, etc. Woe betide the perpetrators of such actions! They'll need bomb-shelters to escape the wrath of the public. This office shall continue to guard the public treasury, even if it has to make singular, unpopular stands. ANNUAL REPORTS — INS 353 TAXES COLLrx;i.ru FOR THE TAX COLLECTOR We are still doing this goodwill work for the Tax Collector under General Laws, Chapter 60, Section. 93 and made approxi- mately 20 collections this year. I wish to thank all my staff for their splendid work and I wish to thank all Town officials and employees for their fine co-opera- tion and good work. I also wish to thank the citizens and taxpayers of Watertown for keeping the money rolling in; you are also doing a darn good job! Shalom ROBERT C.

SIN JOIN J. KENNET?Y Auditor Collector of Taxes 376 TOWN OF WATERTOWN REPORT OF THE PLANNING BOAD This has been one of the most active and productive years that the Watertown Planning Board has ever experienced. The comprehensive planning study, authorized by the 1961 an- nual town meeting is well underway and this board is pleased with the diligence, initiative, and insight of the planning consultants who are conducting this survey. The Planning Services Group of Cambridge, Massachusetts, planning consultants to this board under the direction of Mr. Justin Gray, have conducted many surveys, research and analysis reports of our town's needs and problems and through means of public meet- ings have incorporated the ideas, criticism and constructive com- ments of our citizenry into their status reports which will ultimately be a part of the final report. Your plannng board met an average of twice a month with the planning consultants on these reports and surveys. No detailed reports will be outlined in this report since a separate status report of the work of our consultants will be pre- pared and distributed to the members of the town meeting and town officials. Zoning by-law changes and requests: At the March town meeting an amendment and revision of the by-laws concerning off-street parking requirement was favorably acted upon and has been incorporated into the new printing of our by-laws. At the same meeting this .board recommended a change in zone for property located on Coolidge Avenue at the upper end of Grove Street at the request of the proprietors of Mt. Auburn Cemetery from general resident district zone 2 to light industrial district zone 5. This was made to allow apartment buildings in conformance with our zoning by-laws, 5 stories not to exceed 60 feet, to be constructed. This article was favorably acted upon by the town meeting. Within a few months thereafter the purchases of this same property peti- tioned the Board of Appeals for a variance to aIlow them to con- struct a nine story building in excess of 60 feet on this property, based on a hardship. The majority of the Planning Board voted to appear before the appeals board and contest this petition contend- ing that the request, if granted, was not in the nature of a variance, but rather an amendment to the by-laws in that it exceeds both the height limitation and story level limitation of our existing laws. ANNUAL REPORTS — 1963 377 The Board of Appeals, after a hearing, granted the petitioner's re- quest for a variance as asked. The Planning Board voted unani- mously to seek.court action to contest this decision and approached the Board of Selectmen for legal assistance to implement this vote. Since there was no support on the part of the Board for the action, the matter was not pursued. It has since come to the attention of this board that construction of the proposed apartment buildings has been started and that even though the variance was granted, the present owners of the property propose to build apartments which will conform to our existing laws. A request for a change in zone from general residence to apart- ment district of property located on Main Street, bounded by Pine Street, Jensen Road sand Nash Street, was not recommended .by the planning board and the town meeting upheld our recommendation. This particular property has been the subject of many requests for zone change over the years and it is hoped that this action will be a final determination. During the course of this year there was much anxiety caused by the announcement that the members of the Oakley Country Club planned to sell their real estate to an operative developer. Since any sale of this land would greatly affect the economy and welfare of our town and citizens, this board, with the co-operation of our planning consultants, made an exhaustive study of the effects of such a proposed sale. Many astounding facts on the cost to the Town of any development on this site were uncovered. A complete re- port on these findings was prepared and entitled, "Development Costs: Town Policy Alternatives." From this report recommendations have been made to your board and we are pleased with the sincerity and rapidity of the action which you have undertaken to correct these problems. (Re: development costs of sewers, drainage and utilities; establishment of a committee to formulate rules and regulations for the Board of Survey; and recommendations on the adoption of the new planning legislation.) The final decision of the membership of the Oakley Country Club not to sell was a source of great relief on our part and of great benefit to the Town. This board is greatly indebted to Professor Hideo Sasaki of Harvard University and Sasaki-Walker Associates of Watertown, Mass. for the interest and sincere desire shown by him and his staff in our community problems. Professor Sasaki's class at Harvard Uni- versity Graduate School of Design, as a class problem, undertook the redevelopment of the Watertown Square area. Your chairman was pleased to.have attended these class presentations by the students at the university and was able to obtain new insight into the problems 378 TOWN OF WATERTOWN of this area. At the completion of the six week student problem, Professor Sasaki arranged for his students to exhibit and explain their final schemes to this board and to town officials and mem- bers of the public. I am sure we all benefited from this discussion. At the present time Professor Sasaki has a competition among the students of the Harvard Graduate School of Architecture for the development of the Whitney Hill Area as a recreational and sports center. When the final designs are submitted, they will be made available to town officials and the citizenry for consideration of the town meeting. We have received so much consideration from various citizens, town officials and department heads that to single out individuals may result in oversights. We therefore express our appreciation to all who have aided us in any way. Respectfully submitted, JOHN A. RYAN, Chairman FRANCIS J. MALONEY, Secretary KEVIN LYNCH ROBERT L. SHUTT ROBERT M. SLAVIN REPORT OF THE VETERANS' SERVICES The Department of Veteran's Services completed 1962 within its appropriation and with no unpaid bills, which considering the uncer- tainties of claims for assistance, costs of hospitalization, etc, is an unusual accomplishment. Careful scrutiny and evaluation of every request for help, and thorough exploration of all alternate avenues of assistance that might possibly be open to the claimant, time-con- suming but valuable procedures, contributed to this happy result. Such attention to individual cases requires the whole-hearted efforts of the full staff of the department, but pays substantial dividends, when it is noted that some communities of similar size and ANNUAL REPORTS — 1963 379 economic make-up, spend as much as twice what Watertown spends on Veterans Benefits, principally because of inadequate or underpaid staff. It can easily be seen, therefore, that each dollar spent on ad- ministration which is reflected in two or more dollars saved in ex- penditures for direct relief, is illustrative of the type of muncipal government the taxpayers desire and deserve. Our town is fortunate in that it has a realistic relationship between staff and case-load and any attempt to reduce staff should be resisted. The Legislature, during 1962, made eligible for benefits certain dependents of reserve military personnel who are called to active duty in times of crisis, constituting another category of cases to be handled by the department. Two such families were aided during the Cuban crisis, and four more applied for, but were refused assistance, after investigation revealed they had sufficient means to bridge the transition from civilian life to receipt of first military pay. Your Agent, as in the past, was active during the year in the field of legislation to improve the Veterans Benefits program, and in 1962 saw two bills of his authorship become law, bringing to more than a dozen the amendments to Gen.Laws,Chapter 115 and 116 that he has drafted. One of this year's bills improved the operation of the real estate lien section of the law, which is responsible for re- turning to the communities significant sums of money following the decease of dependent parents of a veteran. Foreseen for 1963 is a budget increase for all cases amounting to about 5%, the first since October 1960. The Division of Hospital Costs of the Commonwealth has raised hospital and nursing home rates for the coming year so that the top per diem rate for several of our Boston hospitals has now reached $36.76. It can be easily seen that a month's stay at this rate for a seriously ill World War I widow, for example, would run up a heavy bill for the taxpayers. Despite these prospects, and the likelihood that there will be more requests for help than in 1962, the Veterans Services Depart- ment is hopeful of going through the coming year without neces- sarily expending any more money. Respectfully yours, JOHN F. CORB= 380 TOWN OF WATBRTO" REPORT OF BOARD OF SELECTMEN The annual report of the Board of Sleectmen for the year end- ing December 31, 1962, is herewith submitted to the citizens of Watertown. All department heads under the Board have submitted detailed reports concerning the operation of their departments. Each report is printed elsewhere in this Town Report so there is no necessity to elaborate further concerning these departments. In March of 1961, Philip Pane was reelected to the Board for a three year term. In April the Board was organized resulting in the reelection of Pasquale Sclafani (1961-1964) as Chairman, and Philip Pane (1962-1965) as Clerk. The Board appointed Andrew A. Sama, Esq. as Town Counsel, and Arthur Morley as its Confidential Clerk. Mr. Arthur Morley resigned as Confidential Clerk of the Board on September 30, 1962, as a result of obtaining an important position with a large corporation. Mr. John J. Mantenuto was ap- pointed Confidential Clerk on October 1, 1962. On September 24, 1962, the Board appointed Miss Patricia A. Condon as its Confidential Secretary as a result of a leave of absence taken by Miss Helen Jigarjian. Our tax rate increased from $70.40 to $75.20, or an increase of $4.80. The School rate increased $1.50 and the general rate increased- $3.30, making the total increase of $4.80. However, this rate was still lower than the average municipal rate in Massachusetts. Higher pension costs, a substantial increase in the M.T.A. assess- ment, and a large capital outlay program, were the principal reasons for this increase. The second phase of new sewerage and drainage construction has been completed. The 1963 Town Meeting will be asked for further authority to complete these important projects to bring relief to critical areas in the Town. The year 1961 has seen an upsurge of new building construction in the Town. The Building Inspector reported that more than $2,000,000 in building permits were issued by this Department. This is an increase of $700,000 in residential construction over 1961. ANNUAL REPORTS — 1963 381 Industrial construction is progressing at a good pace in the McNamara and Bemis Dump Lands which should substantially in- crease our tax base in the coming year. On October 8, 1962, Deputy Chief Walter Starr was appointed Acting Chief of the Fire Department upon the retirement of Fire Chief William C. McElroy. The Board, and the Citizens of our Town, are grateful to Fire Chief McElroy for the 43 years of faithful service rendered to the Fire Department. The Board wishes him good health, and sincere good wishes. 1962 saw the appointment of Deputy Chief Thomas C. Conlon as the new Chief of the Fire Department. Chief Conlon, who topped the Civil Service list for the position, is a Veteran of our Fire De- partment whose ability and determination is well known. We regret the passng of Michael Oates, Superintendent of the Water Department, who died on May 12, 1962. Mr. Oates served the Town faithfully and well for period of twenty-two years. His cheerfulness and devotion to his duty will be remembered by all who came in contact with him. The Board of Selectmen held regular meetings every Monday beginning at 3:00 p.m. Due to increased business and to the com- plex nature of modern government, many special meetings were called during the year to handle urgent and unexpected matters. The Board is extremely proud to state that the Town is pro- gressing in its aim to provide better service to its citizens at the least possible cost. The Town is fortunate to have many able public- spirited citizens who serve on the various appointed committees and receive no remuneration. In conclusion the Board wishes to thank all department heads and boards for their co-operation during the year just ended. The Board wishes to thank the many employees of the Town for their faithful service; and finally the Board wishes to thank the Finance Committee and the Town Meeting Members for their devotion to duty.

Wellman: The Town Clerks Department collected $13,157.26 covering various types of licenses and fees. Of this amount $5642.35 was for Conservation Licenses and $1883.00 was for dog licenses.

The total sum appropriated was $7,698,- 684.55 in the Annual Town Meeting and $22,744.30 in the Special Town Meeting, which amount was transferred from the Excess and Deficiency Account. VITAL STATISTICS As of the time of writing this report, the office of Town Clerk has incomplete returns for the year in respect to births and deaths. This is because the community has no hospital, and the office must await returns furnished by neighboring communities. A total of 385 couples filed Intentions of Marriage during 1962. The total number of marriages consummated, including records of Watertown persons married without the Commonwealth, and whose records were forwarded to the Town Clerk, numbered 401. The foregoing total of 401 also includes out of town marriages taking place in Watertown. A total of 440 deaths, relating to persons who died in Water- town or Watertown residents who died out of town, have been for- warded to the Secretary of State to date. This is an incomplete total as many returns have not as yet been received from neighboring town and cities The record of birth relating to Watertown parents received in the office to date totals 866. Only 2 births took place in the Town of Watertown for the year 1962. There were 8 births received from outside the Commonwealth relating to Watertown parents. All other births to Watertown parents took place in hospitals located in neighboring towns and cities.

The Board organized by electing Selectman Philip Pane as Chairman and Mr. Edward Reardon as Secretary. At a subsequent meeting, Richard E. Mastrangelo was appointed to serve as Clerk with compensation to be paid from the Personnel Board Contingent Account. Meetings were held in June, July and August for the purpose of familiarizing the Board members with the regulations govern- ing its function and to exchange ideas consistent with wage and salary practices in industry and municipal government. To aid in their deliberations, the Board had compiled by the Clerk comparative salary data from the fifteen surrounding com- munities which are included in the Board's application. Tables were compiled to show the increase received by Watertown em- ployees since 1952. Cost of Living statistics were also taken into consideration. JOINT MEETING A joint meeting was held with the Chairman of the Finance Committee, and elected department heads, including the Assessors, to discuss with them the goals and aims of the newly formed Per- sonnel Board. 404 TOWN OF WATERTOWN Four subsequent meetings of the Board were entirely devoted to the interviewing of applicants for Increase in salary and/or re- classification of grade. At the conclusion of these interviews, the Board evaluated the applications and reached a preliminary de- cision. Earnest discussion and consideration was given to each and every application received by the Board. The preliminary report was then placed on file with the Sec- retary to the Board of Selectmen. Each Department Head co-oper- ated in notifying all Town employees that such report was avail- able for their examination. The Board then instituted a policy of re-hearings which were granted to each employee who requested such re-examination. Fol- lowing the re-hearings, the Board met with the Finance Committee to discuss the contents of the report. It is hoped that this joint meeting, and a subsequent one, was helpful to the members of the Finance Committee in enabling that group to become more familiar with the aims and objectives of the report of the Personnel Board. It is sincerely hoped by the Per- sonnel Board that the procedure will lead to an agreement in the recommendations made to the 1963 Annual Town Meeting in the area of wages and salaries. GENERAL SURVEY The Personnel Board traveled to Needham to visit with the Personnel Board of that community to discuss with them, and to view first-hand, the operation of that group. Throughout the deliberations of the current Board, it has be- come increasingly apparent that the time has come for the Town of Watertown to seek professional assistance in the preparation of a wage and salary plan. The members of the Personnel Board, therefore, met with representatives of several of the better-known consultants in the area to discuss the possibility of such a survey. After full and complete deliberation, the Board voted unani. mously to recommend to the Town Meeting an appropriation to cover the cost of such a survey. In this way, it is hoped that the Personnel Board can function more efficiently and effectively. Such a survey would also eliminate many of the salary questions which currently tend to protract the Town Meeting. The survey would be broken into three segments: 1) An eval- uation and ranking of all positions in the Town, 2) A comparison of rates paid by other towns for many jobs of similar content, and 3)A series of recommendations on personnel policies and possible revisions in Chapter 10. ANNUAL REPORTS — 1963 405 RECOMMENDATIONS (NOTE: The recommendations of The Board are incorporated into Appendix A, which is drafted in form appropriate for action at the 1963 Annual Town Meeting) With a full knowledge that the Board would recommend an appropriation for a complete salary survey by an outside consul- tant, the Board voted and does recommend the following amend- ments to Chapter 10 of the By-Laws of the Town of Watertown: 1. A change in the number of step rates, and in the minimum of all persons in the clerk grades. In adopting the `welfare plan', the Town Meeting created inequalities which must be corrected; 2. That the positions of Assistant Town Clerk and Admini- strative Assistant to the Selectmen be added to the Chapter 10 By-Law in an appropriate place; 3. That the forestry foreman be granted a change in grade to compensate for his responsibilities; 5. That the Library Assistants and the sub-Professional Li- brarians be raised in grade to their former position of equality with the Junior and Senior Clerks, respectively; 6. That the Social Worker in the Veterans' Service Depart- ment be raised to a salary equal to that paid social workers in the Welfare Department; 7. That the Health Officer receive a grade change more com- mensurate with his responsibilities and duties; 8. That the Water Meter Inspectors receive a grade change commensurate with their increased work load; 9. That the Water Registrar receive a grade change to com- pensate him for additional work performed due to an increase in water service in the Town; 10. That the Assistant Superintendent of Water receive a change in grade to compensate him for his responsibilities and duties. 11. That the Assistant Superintendent of the Highway Depart- ment receive a grade change to compensate him for increased du. ties with the opening of the Incinerator; 12. That the Timekeeper receive a grade change to compensate him for an increase in duties caused by the opening of the Inciner- ator; 13. That the following members of the Wire Department re- ceive grade changes to rectify an inequity created by the action of the Town Meeting in raising certain members of that department to salaries higher than that paid to their supervisor: Supervising Inspector of Wire Maintenance, Assistant Superintendent of Wires, Supervisor of Poles and Wires; 406 TOWN OF WATER,TOWN 14. That the Superintendent of Highways receive a grade change to compensate him for an increase in duties caused by the opening of the Incinerator; 15. That the Fire Alarm Signal Operators and all positions within the Fire and Police Departments, excluding the position of Chief, receive an increase in salary of $400. This represents one- half of the increase authorized by permissive legislation passed by the 1962 session of the General Court. 16. That the Police and Fire Chiefs receive an increase in sal- ary of $500 to maintain the balance within those Departments; 17. That the following changes be made in Section XI-A of the By-Law (Hourly Rated Employees): a) That the Parking Meter Collector and Maintenance Man be raised one group to the group in which he was prior to the action of the 1962 Town Meeting; b That the Highway Incinerator Mechanic be raised to Group E; c) That the position of Tin-Knocker and Spray Painter be added to Group D; 18. That there be a general increase of Sc per hour in all groups under Section XI-A of the By-Law (Hourly Rated Men). COMMENTS The Board feels that these changes, as recommended, will e- liminate inequalities caused by the action of recent Town Meet- ings. It further feels that the contemplated survey of Town Sal- aries and Wages will better enable future Boards to make more meaningful recommendations to the Town Meeting. In accordance with the provisions of Chapter 10, the Board re- ceived several requests from departments within the Town. These requests included: 1. Request for an amendment to Section XI-B to add, beneath the salary of the Recreation Director, the following phrase: "Initial employment in the Recreation Service positions or classifications included in this section may be at rates above the minimum rate shown, when, in the judgement of the Rec- reation Commission, prior experience and training justifies such rate." (request of Recreation Commission) 2. The Board of Health plans to place in its budget request for 1963, the positions of Inspector of Plumbing and Gas, and of Public Health Sanitarian. 3. The Board of Selectmen plans to place the following article in the Warrant for the 1963 Annual Town Meeting: ARTICLE 122 To see if the Town will vote to strike out that part of Section XI-A of Chapter 10 of the By-Laws of the Town of Wa- tertown as amended which reads as follows: ANNUAL REPORTS — 1863 407 "An employee performing work of Classification or grade higher than his official title classification shall receive the hourly rate of pay provided for such higher classification or grade, while performing such work; pro- vided that an employee performing work in one such classification or grade for an aggregate of 32 weeks during the calendar year shall be held to have worked in such classification or grade during the entire calendar year, and shall receive not less than the hourly rate of pay provided for such classification or grade"—this amendment to cake effect as of Janu- ary 1, 1958, and for the year 1958 and subsequent years, said wages shall be based upon period of time worked by the employee during the pre- vious calendar year in conformity with this amendment. (Voted Art. 6, Oct. 14, 1957.) Voted: To amend Chapter 10, Section 11-A of the By-Laws of the Town of Watertown by inserting the following section: An employee who has received the official title classification or clas- sifications as provided in Chapter 10, Sections 2, 3, and 11A, shall there- after receive not less than the hourly rate of pay provided for the highest title classification attained by him; and further provided he is employed in the highest title classification for 100 working days. (Amended: Art. 86, April 12, 1962) or take any other action relating thereto. (Request of Board of Se- lectmen) These requests are included in this report in order to comply with the Provisions of Section 15 of the Chapter 10 By-Law which requires the Board to "make investigations and recommendations to the Town Meeting concerning all requested changes . . ." in the By-Law. The Board makes recommendation directly to the Town Meeting with regard to these requests. The Chairman wishes to thank the members of this, the first Personnel Board in the history of the Town, for their faithful at. tendance and the earnest discharge of their duties. The task of the Personnel Board is a most difficult one. The 1962-63 Board has acted diligently and effectively in the complex problems which con- fronted it. The members of the Board have established a new tra- dition in the Town; one which the Chairman fully expects will de- velop into a solution to the problem of how to most effectively and equitably handle problems of Administration of the salary By-Law. Respectfully submitted, PHILIP PANE Chairman VOTED: That the Report of the Chairman be adopted and is the Report of the Personnel Board.

(Request of Personnel Board) Annual Report OF THE AUDITOR OF THE Town of Watertown FOR THE YEAR ENDING DECEMBER 31, 1962 ANNUAL REPORTS — 1963 419 AUDITOR'S REPORT I herewith present the Annual Report of the Financial Tran- sactions of the Town of Watertown for the year ended December 31, 1962. The various funds in the hands of the Town Treasurer, includ- ing those of the Trustees of the Free Public Library, have been examined and found correct. I have verified the cash in the hands of both the Town Trea- surer and the Collector of Taxes. During the year I have made periodic examinations of the Col- lector's outstanding accounts and I have found them in agreement with the controls in my office. The regular examination of the accounts of the Town of Wa- tertown by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, Department of Corporations and Taxation was completed earlier this year, and their report of this audit, shown elsewhere in the Town Report, indicates that they were completely satisfied with the manner in which the business of the Town was being conducted. The balance in the Excess and Deficiency account at the close of business for the year 1962 is in the amount of $510,671.17. The outstanding debt of the Town of Watertown as of Decem- ber 31, 1962 is in the amount of $3,510,000.00. No new loans were authorized or issued during the year. To my staff in particular, I wish to express my appreciation for a job well done. I also wish to thank the nembers of all de- partments for their excellent co-operation during the year.
