March 28, 1963 REPORT OF SEWERAGE AND DRAINAGE COMMITTEE In connection with Article 79, Chairman Edward G. Seferiar submitted the following report. SEWERAGE AND DRAINAGE COMMITTEE REPORT The 1961 Annual Town Meeting authorized the expenditure of $388,660.84 for the purpose of continuing improvements to our drain- age systems, namely, 1. The continuation of a dual system from the termina- tion of prior project at the settling tanks on property of B. F. Goodrich Co. across said property to Melendy Avenue and Oak Street. 2. The complete enclosure of brook running parallel to Forest Street from a point near Waverley Avenue eastward to point of completion behind Administration Building. 3. The continuation of Acton Street system from point of termination of last project at Rosedale Road west along Acton Street to a point at Rutland Street. At this writing, the contracts have virtually been performed with an amount withheld from contractor on Acton Street system 32 TOWN OF WATERTOWN to insure performance of final resurfacing work to be performed in the Spring. The contracts for construction of these projects were divided into two parts, Section A and Section B, and prospective bidders were allowed to bid on individual sections or both sections. The request for proposals was advertised on November 16, 1961 in local and Boston newspapers and the firm of Fay, Spofford & Thorndike, Inc., the Committee's consulting engineers, super- vised the opening of said bids publicly at the Administration Build- ing on November 30, 1961. TLventy-two separate bids were received and opened, and af- ter investigation, the consulting engineers recommended the low bidder on Section A, the firm of Daddario Corporation at a low bid of $159,085.00 and on Section B, the firm of Pacella Brothers, Inc. at a low bid of $190,712.75 The total amount expended by the Committee for the con- struction of these projects, including cost of engineering, amoun- ted to $388,205.68 with a surplus of $454.86. The 1961 Town Meeting authorized the transfer of $322,000.00 from the Sale of Dump Lands Account and the balance of $66,660.84, carried over from prior drainage project, to be utilized for the projects herein before stated. Certificates of completion have been prepared by the Com- mittee's engineer and are being held pending paving work to be completed on Acton Street as previously mentioned. The Sewerage and Drainage Committee has met regularly dur- ing the period of construction and made several on-the-spot inspec- tion tours of the projects during construction and at its termina- tion. The Committee, at a regularly scheduled meeting, heard fur- ther recommendations from the Committee engineer, made at the request of the Committee, for further construction and improve- ments to our drainage system. The Committee received a petition from residents of area of Nichols Avenue and Boylston Street com- plaining about a serious surface water condition in yards and cel- lars after heavy rains. Our engineers checked the sources of these complaints and were satisfied that additional work should be done in this area because of heavy run-off, topography and inadequacy of existing system. The engineer recommended the following for construction work in the year 1963 — ANNUAL REPORTS — 1963 33 1. Bemis Area System — from end of the contract now under construction which was awarded by the Board of Selectmen, as authorized by the 1962 Town Meet- ing, to Waltham Street, including the crossing of Wal- tham Street, estimated cost — $160,000.00 2. East Watertown System — from Melendy Avenue and Oak Street to Boylston and Dartmouth Streets, esti- mated cost — $200,000.00. 3. From Boylston and Dartmouth Streets to School and Porter streets, estimated cost — $30,000.00. 3a.School Street north of Porter Street, estimated cost $5,000.00 For a total estimated cost of $395,000.00 The Committee then voted to adopt the recommendation of its Engineer and voted to insert an article in the 1963 Town Meeting Warrant for such purpose. Pursuant to this action, members of the Committee, through its Chairman, appeared before the Finance Committee, at which time a comprehensive report was given to the Finance Committee. We are pleased to report that with completion of work con- templated for 1963, together with work completed under the au- thority of the Selectmen, the surface water drainage problem in the two most critical areas has been resolved along with needed work in other areas. The Town has spent much over the past few years to improve its drainage system. It has recognized that the problems exist and has assumed its responsibilities by doing something about them. Future Town Meetings may be asked to continue work plan- ned in the "Master Plan" of improvements in areas which were not considered as critical as these under consideration. The neces- sity of this future work can be determined by a future Town Meet- ing in its wisdom together with the consideration of the ability of the Town to afford such improvements. In conclusion, I wish to thank each member of the Sewerage and Drainage Committee who worked so diligently in bringing a- bout the much needed improvements to the Town's drainage sys- tem. I would also thank the members of the Finance Committee and various other Departments of the Town and its loyal employees 34 TOWN OF WATERTOWN through whose co-operation and understanding successful com- pletion of this work has been realized. Last but not least, I wish to express my sincere gratitude to the Town Meetings which have recognized their responsibilities and mandated that Watertown shall continue to be a progressive town and offer to its citizens the finest of facilities at the lowest possible cost.

It is the oldest and largest elementary school ANNUAL REPORTS — 1963 35 In the Town with a 1962-63 enrollment of 738 pupils, taught in 30 classrooms by a faculty of 27 teachers. The school building consists of three connected structures, 1. South Wing (original structure) built in 1898 houses 8 classrooms, a nurse's office, dentist's office and an office for the school psychologist and adjustment counselor. 3. Middle Wing built in 1919 houses 12 classrooms, an as- sembly hall and a recently converted science room in the basement. .. 3. North Wing built in 1928 houses 10 classrooms, one of which includes the library, the prncipal's office, teachers' room and a combination gym and precinct voting room in the basement. STRUCTURE: The three structures, each with two stories above their basements, are similar in construction except that the 1898 structure has stone masonry foundation walls and a hip roof, whereas the additions have poured concrete foundation walls and flat roofs. The structures are second-class, factory-type construc- tion with brick masonry exterior walls and wood framed floors and roofs. Interior floors are predominantly oiled wood with the Library„ Sight saving Room and hallway in the north wing tiled; walls and ceilings are plaster on wood laths with some wood wainscoting in the original structure. The plastered walls and ceilings are generally cracked and water stained from leakage about the windows and through the roof. The wood window frames and sash are badly rotted and should be replaced. Although there is evidence of settlement in the floors, the building cannot be considered to be unsafe structurally. Therefore renovation remains a possibility. However this type of construc- tion is subject to conflagration and not recommended for new school house construction. The building is presently operating without a certificate front the Massachusetts Department of Public Safety due to the lack of approved second-exits from all classrooms, adequate exits from the auditorium, the lack of sufficient fire screens in the corridors and some open stairwells. The recommendations made by the Department of Public Safety will require a large expenditure in and of themselves. 36 TOWN OF WATERTOWN The School Department has refrained from expending money to correct this condition, awaiting the final report of this Com- mittee. BUILDING SERVICES: The electrical system comprising a single phase, 125/250 volt, 225 amp service, 14 guage wire conductors feeding the outlets and some relatively new but mostly antiquated lighting fixtures does not deliver the proper degree of light for classroom work. Circuits are continually being overloaded result- in blown fuses. The entire system should be replaced. All the student lavatories are located in the basements of the three structures. Lavatory fixtures range from slate urinals to china water closets and floor mounted urinals. All lavatories give off varying degrees of foul odors and build up moisture on the walls and floors due to inadequate ventilation, drainage and de- fective fixtures. The water closets are too high for the kindergarten children. The water piping throughout the building is generally iron pipe in varying degrees of decay, resultng in rusty water condi- tions following school vacations. This piping should be completely replaced with copper water tube. Three oil-fired, low pressure (15 psi), horizontal return tub- ular steam boilers constitute the heating plant. Two of these boilers were installed about 1919 and the other one about 1928 and are in need of overhaul, leading to problems in heating the building. The ventilation system is operative in varying degrees of efficiency. Only excellent custodial services has kept this building in presentable condition. EDUCATIONAL FACILITIES: Although the number of class- rooms are adequate for the enrollment, they are in urgent need of restoration; blackboards are poor; there is a general lack of display areas, work sinks, shelving and storage space; and, ori- ginal furniture still exists in two-thirds of the classrooms. The audtorium, with a seating capacity of about 220, is too small for the needs of a school with an enrollment of 738. The precinct voting room in the basement of the north wing is presentiy used as a gymnasium and is totally inadequate be- cause of its low ceiling, extremely poor lighting and antique wood block floor which buckles with damp weather. ANNUAL REPORT'S — 1963 37 During the past two years an unused basement space in the middle wing was renovated and equipped as a science room, but falls far short of being adequate. The Striley memorial Library on the second floor of the north wing, formerly a classroom, was renovated several years ago and has been newly furnished and is the only bright spot in the building. Administrative facilities are inadequate, lacking sufficient space for secretarial work, and school records. There are no facilities for principal — teacher/parent conferences. These facilities are not centrally located and are difficult for visitors to find. OUTSIDE RECREATION AREAS: The paved areas about the School are in very poor condition and should be completely re- placed. There are also several open exterior stairwells which present a hazard to the children. Recreation periods are held on the limited space about the School, the play areas of the East Junior High School playground and in Winthrop Street, which is closed to traffic during the school day. INVESTIGATIONS: The Committee toured the Hosmer School Building in the company of Mr. John J. Harris, Principal; re- viewed the original construction plans of the structures; had several engineering and architectural firms review the building to estimate the cost of the recommended study; and met with represenatives of the Massachusetts School Building Assistance Commission in Boston and at the Hosmer School. CONCLUSIONS: Based upon the foregoing, the Committee feels that to properly and intelligently make recommendation to the Town Meeting on this problem it must 1. Obtain estimates from architectural firm of the cost to a. Perform the recommendations of the Massachusetts De- partment of Public Safety. b. Completely renovate and bring the present building to the standards of the Massachusetts School Building As- sistance Commission which will require the re-allocation of space and relocation of existing facilities with the pos- sibility of an adddition. c. Build a new structure. 38 TOWN OF WATERTOWN 2. Retain the services of a qualified firm to make an economic feasibility study of the foregoing alternatives to determine Which is in the best interests of the Town. The Housing and Home Finance Agency of the U.S. Govern- ment was contacted concerning the use of Federal Funds to per- form the foregoing studies. They informed the Committee that they could not participate in this phase of the problem, but would participate in the preparation of working plans for the selected project. RECOMMENDATIONS: The Committee recommends that the Town Meeting vote to appropriate the sum of $6,000.00 under Article 90 in the 1963 Warrant. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS: The Committee wishes to thank the following for their invaluable assistance; Mr. Francis A. Kelly, Superintendent of Schools Mr. John J.

TO WORLD WAR I MEMORIAL 1. Final meeting held 15 January, 1963. 2. The committee unanimously recommends the following course/s of action. A. Sell the property to the American Legion Post No. 99, Watertown, Mass., for the sum of $1.00 with a provision that, any time the American Legion Post No. 99 should decide to move and/abandon the building or dissolve the organization and its activities, the property would automatically revert to the Town of Watertown. 3. Basis for the recommendations are as follows: (1) By selling/leasing, the town would not be liable for required repairs. (2) Inspection of the property. (3) Report of Acting inspector of buildings dated 5 Feb. 62 (Exhibit A) stating in part, "Estimated cost of repairs required $18,000.00 to $20,000.00." (4) Further investigation has disclosed that, funds in the amount of $6,855.00 have been appropriated for repairs etc. for the American Legion home, over a period of ten years, 1952 through 1962. 4. In the best interest of the town of Watertown, the com- mittee recommends action be taken as outlined in (a) or (b) as stated above. 5. I wish to express my thanks to the Moderator, Thomas C. Menton, for allowing me the privilege and appointment to serve on the committee for the Town of Watertown.

THE COMPREHENSIVE PLANNING PROGRAM Two years ago in March, 1961, the Town Meeting voted funds to support the Planning Board in its preparation of a Comprehen- sive Plan for the growth and development of the Town. Each dollar of the Town's appropriation was to be matched by two dollars of fereral funds. Federal approval for its share of the cost of the planning program was obtained eight months later, in November, 1961. Actual work on the Comprehensive Plan, there- fore, started in January 1962. The Comprehensive Plan will be completed by the end of this year — 1963. In brief, this Comprehensive Plan will be a program for co- ordinating Watertown's future population, economy, schools, re- creational facilities, and its residential, commercial, and industrial development. The Plan will recommend modifications of the Town's street system; it will indicate the type and location of new housing and commercial activity; it will suggest the location and size of new areas for recreation; it will propose future uses for the Oakley Country Club (if it ever agains comes on the market) and the other large and small parcels of vacant land throughout the Town; and it will make recommendations aimed at increasing the Town's tax base. The Plan in all its aspects will be a program to preserve those qualities the people of Watertown have as an image of the Town — a modest, primarily residential community closely related to Boston. When the Comprehensive Plan is completed it will enable the Planning Board (1) to anticipate probable future changes in the Town, (2) to adjust to these inevitable changes, and (3) where there are alternatives, to choose the most desirable changes for the Town. Based on the proposals included in the Compre- hensive Plan, the Town will be able to revise intelligently its Zoning Bylaw and develop a staged program for the investment of public funds for capital improvements (e.g.: school additions, recreation areas, and street and utility improvements) as re- quired by the Town. ANNUAL REPORTS — 1963 41 The Planning Board is convinced that a planned development program of this sort is a sound use of the Town's tax dollars in that it will bring the greatest economic and social return for both public and private investment. One note of caution must be made, however. The completion of the Plan at the end of this year will be of no value to the Town if the policies and proposals in the Plan are not acted upon Starting in 1964, and continuing over the next years, Town Meeing members will be asked, through Articles in the Warrant, to make decisions on proposals outlined in the Comprehensive Plan. Only through your votes in the Town Meeting can the Comprehensive Plan be made to work. B. LONG-RANGE COMPREHENSIVE PLANNING ACCOM- PLISHED DURING THE PAST YEAR During the past year the Planning Board has concerned itself with three broad areas of work. 1. A determination was made of the Town's planning ob- jectives: How do the people living and working in Watertown view the Town today? What do they see for the Town's future? Two objectives seem to be agreed upon: (1) to keep Watertown a fine residntial town, (2) to broaden the Town's tax base. These objectives, however, are only generalizations, and in all proba- bility, Watertown shares these goals with practically every other community in the United States. In addition to these general goals, the Planning Board, through neighborhood discussions, developed a set of specific objectives which are being used as a guide to the preparation of the Comprehensive Plan. 2. A series of analyses and evaluations was made of the re- gional and local influences and trends — land use, population, and economic growth — to determine their effect on the Town's planning objectives. The compiling of this basic information has been largely completed, except for reports on traffic circulation and Watertown Square. 3. A comparison was made of the Town's planning objectives (item 1 above) with its development trends (item 2 above). This phase of the planning Board's work during the past year was the critical phase of Watertown's comprehensive planning program. The extent to which the existing and potential trends can or can- not achieve Watertown's planning objectives will determine, in large measure, the future Planning Board recommendations for the Town's growth. If the trends run counter to these objectives, the Planning Board will have to either modify the objectives or take steps to stop the trends. 42 TOWN OF WATERTOWN C. SHORT-RANGE 'PLANNING ACCOMPLISHED DURING THE PAST YEAR In addition to the comprehensive planning effort outlined above, the Planning Board during the past year has attemped to aid the Board of Selectmen on a number of planning questions that have arisen during the year. Last summer's alarm concern• ing the possible sale of the Oakley Country Club, for example, led the Planning Board to study the consequences to the Town of such a sale. This study recommended that the Town stop paying the costs of streets and utilities in new developments by requir. ing that these costs be carried by the developers themselves. Up to now, the Town has paid a major part of these costs. Other examples of Planning Board action during the past year are two special studies, concerning the existing parking situation in Watertown Square and the possible future uses of the Town• owned railroad right-of-way, which were prepared to aid the Selectmen in deciding whether or not to sell this land. Suggestions also were made concerning the availablility of federal funds for the renovaton of the Administration Building. In addition, a study was made of existing state legislation governing the establishment of the Town's Planning Board and outlining its duties. As a result of this review, the Board intro- duced Article 101 into the Warrant for this Town Meeting asking for the appointment of a Moderator's committee to study the value of re--establishing the Planning Board under a revised Chapter of the Massachusetts General Laws called the Improved Method of Municipal Planning. D. FUTURE WORK PROGRAM After the current studies of the Town's development trends have been completed, the Planning Board will review all the basic and special studies and will prepare the Comprehensive Plan. This Plan will reflect a realistic compromise of trends modified to fit the needs of Watertown's Planning objectives and of plan- ning objectives modified to reflect the reality of existing and potential trends. Finally, the Planning Board will give its attention to a re- vision of the Town's existing Zoning Bylaw The text of Water- town's Bylaw has been amended and revised on numerous occa- sions. The Bylaw contains a number of modern provisions but, in the main, it is ,inadequate to protect the Town from adverse ANNUAL REPORTS — 1963 43 development patterns. Substantial changes in the Bylaw are clear- ly required. However, the Planning Board is anxious not to pre- sent zoning articles to the Town Meeting until the whole Town has had an opportunity to throughly examine and discuss the proposed changes. For this reason, the proposed changes in the Zoning Bylaw will not be in the form of warrant articles for the March, 1964, Town Meeting. Instead of articles for the warrant, the Planning Board will prepare a memorandum, for review by the March, 1964, Town Meeting analyzing the limitations of the existing Zoning Bylaw and proposing certain modifications. This memorandum will serve to inform the Town Meeting of the character of zoning changes to be recommended by the Planning Board as a result of its comprehensive planning studies. Following discussion of these recommendations, the Planning Board will ask the Town Meeting in March, 1964, to appropriate funds to translate these zoning proposals into legal language. If the Town Meeting approves this appropriation, the Planning Board will request a Special Town Meeting to be held in the Fall of 1964 to review and vote on these marily to this purpose, is considered necessary by the Planning proposed zoning changes. A Special Town Meeting, devoted pri- Board to permit a full and detailed discussion of all of the im- plications of the proposed Zoning Bylaw.

STANTON 106 Channing Road 132 TOWN OF WATERTOWN REPORT OF THE FINANCE COMMITTEE The new Finance Committee met in the Spring and Summer of 1962 to organize and make sub-committee appointments. Sub- committee members and your Chairman had an opportunity to review the work of Department Heads and to personally inter- view several individuals responsible for the make-up of the Town's Budget. Regular meetings commenced in the Fall and have been held on continuous Monday nights. Although open to the public, these meetings were un-attended by public and press alike. However, effective work was accomplished not only by the Finance Com- mittee, but also in joint-session with the Board of Selectmen, Personnel Board, and Board of Assessors. These combined boards are in unanimity that liaison meetings are a great help in effect- ing clarity in budgetary matters, and should include other Depart. ment and Committee heads. The Chairman wishes to commend those Department Heads who have reduced their budgets while continuing to maintain efficient Departments. However, it is felt that those Department Heads who seek salary increases and Department Budget increases as well, fail to see the value of balanced judgment. In a most trying year of salary increases and Departmental budget increases the total requests for appropriations were cut approximately $370,595.48. The Finance Committee is in complete agreement with the Personnel Board, and that job classification wage, and salary mat- ters be the responsibility of the Personnel Board and the Town Meeting, and not the Finance Committee. The recommendations for the 1963 Town Budget are respect- fully submitted for your consideration, and it is urged that due recognition be given to the deliberations of the Finance Conu lt- tee. In the Iast analysis the vote of the Town Meeting is the final vote, and the Finance Committee stands ready to help clarify each and every item of the Budget that a just vote may result in the efficient and effective operation of the services rendered by the Town to its citizens and guests. You will note that the Report of the Finance Committee this year includes not only reports of various outstanding commit- tees, but also our motions on articles appearing in the Warrant which involve an appropriation. These additions should be help- ful to Town Meeting Members and should be read carefully. ANNUAL REPORTS — 1963 133 Please note that the estimated tax rate figures do not appear in our report this year. The Department of Corporations and Taxation have not released the so-called "cherry sheet" which contains both the state and county assessments, also estimated receipts from the Commonweatlh. Without these figures, it is impossible to estimate our 1963 tax rate. I wish to express my appreciation to the members of the Finance Committee for their cooperation and faithful attendance to our meetings. 134 TOWN OF WATE)RTOWN Finance Committee Motions on Articles 'involving Appropriation in Accordance with New Amendment To By-Laws, Chapter 4, Section 2 ARTICLE 57 To see if the Town will vote to appropriate the sum of $10,000.00 for a professional survey of wages and salaries paid by the Town under Chapter 10 of the By-laws, said sum to be ex- pended tinder the Direction of the Personnel Board and to be as- sessed on the polls and estates of the current year, or take any action relating thereto.

Members appointed to the committee were the following: Joseph P. McManus Arlene Durkin John J. Sheehan George B. Wellman Pasquale Sclafani At the organization meeting, Mr. McManus was elected Chair- man, and Mrs. Durkin as Secretary. The purpose of this committee is to report to the Town Meet- ing relative to the possibility and practicability of condensing, consolidating or eliminating' various items or reports contained therein with a goal of improving its readibility, clarity and com- prehension. To this end, the committee has sought help from the Bureau of Government Research at the University of Massachusetts, and has also obtained copies of reports from surrounding communities. We make a report of progress at this time, and hope to con- tinue our studies during the coming year and make a compre- hensive report to the next Annual Town Meeting. Joseph P. McManus Chairman ANNUAL REPORTS — 1963 151 ADMINISTRATIVE BUILDING SURVEY COMMITTEE The Administration Building Survey Committee met through- out 1962 in the furtherance of its assignment and as directed by the 1962 Annual Town Meeting, employed an Architect to make a preliminary professional survey of the space needs, necessity of elevator installation, and feasability and cost of air conditioning. The Architect chosen, after ten had been requested to bid, and six had been interviewed, was Paul G. Feloney, 140 1/2 Mt. Auburn Street, Watertown, Mass. He met with the Committee three times and made an independent, comprehensive study of the problem, in accordance with the specifications of his Contract. His preliminary report, received by the Committee, December 1st, consisted of 13 pages of text, and 4 of sketches. In accordance with the recommendations which have been adopted by the Committee, it was voted to insert in the Warrant, an Article calling for an appropriaion of money, for the purpose of obtaining final architectural drawings and plans to accomplish the work deemed necessary by the Committee. It was voted fur- ther that the Committee, with the cooperation of the Selectmen, and with the hoped for approval of the Town Meeting, woula apply to the Community Facilities Administration of the Housing and Home Finance Agency, for an interest free advance of funds to accomplish this planning. James E. Carty Chairman 152 TOWN OF WATERTOWN COMNi-ri"i'L';r: TO STUDY EROSION AT DOMENIC FILIPELL.O PLAYGROUND ARLINGTON STREET This Committee was created under Article 15 of the Warrant for Special Town Meeting of June 11, 1962, Article 15 reads as follows: ARTICLE 15: To see if the Town will vote to appropriate and provide by transfer or otherwise the sum of five thousand dollars ($5,000.00) to pay for professional assistance in surveying the re- quirements of Domenic Filipello Playground with regard to ero. sion of land; to direct how the money shall be raised, or take any action relating thereto. (Request of Board of Park Commission- ers.) VOTED: That the subject matter of Article 15 be referred to a Committe of five to be appointed by the Moderator and to report to the next Annual Town Meeting. To this Committee the Moderator appointed the following: Harry E. Risso Arthur McCurley Frederick Parshley John J. Farrington Edmund P. Hickey The above committee met on July 31, 1962 to discuss the subject matter of the Article and proceeded in a group to view the premises under discussion as well as to view the buildings which abut the Playground. It should be noted that the conditions of this Playground were the subject matter of a Committee Report made to the Annual Town Meeting of 1962. It should also be noted that the current Committee was fortunate in having as one of its committee members a citizen who is employed as a construction superintendent and therefore well versed in analysing the conditions which were found. ANNUAL REPORTS — 1383 153 It appeared that there were no gutters on the abutting build- ings which would cause most of the washing-down of the soil. Part of the premises is also being used as a dump and the chem- icals from the refuse are killing the plants and shrubberry which are known to be deterrents to erosion. Th Committee recommends that an asphalt culvert be in- stalled at the top of the hill so that surface waters may be brought to ground level without washing down the soil. It further recommends that the premises be re-graded and filled to grade with loam and fill and that a number of plants, shrubbery and small trees be planted to prevent further erosion. The Commit• tee feels that construction of the asphalt culvert and the grading filling and planting could be accomplished for a sum of ap- proximately ten thousand dollars ($10,000.00) and recommends that the Board of Park Commissioners request an appropriation for such amount for the above purposes. The Committee requests that it be discharged. For the Committee — Edmund P. Hickey, Chairman 154 TOWN OF WATERTOWN TOWN OF WATERTOWN COMMri-i r;r� ON TOWN ORGANIZATION AND STRUCTURE Annual Report The Committee on Town Organization and Structure, au- thorized by Article 101 of the 1962 Annual Town Warrant, was appointed by Moderator Thomas C. Menton on April 27, 1962. The membership of the Committee during the first year of its existence has been identical wth that of the temporary Committee of Seven, appointed in May, 1961 to study the adequacy of the present Limited Town Meeting-Selectmen Government. The first task of the new Committee, which held its organi. zation meeting on May 7, 1962, was to plan for the presentation of the proposed new Town Meeting Act and the other articles embodying the recommendations of the Committee of Seven at the Special Town Meeting on June 11, 1962.With the assistance of the League of Women Voters, the Committee held three meet- ings in different sections of the town, on June 4, 6, and 7, to which Town Meeting Members and others were invited in order to discuss the proposed changes. At the June, 1962, Special Town Meeting, the three articles calling for changes in the By-Laws that were recommended by the Committee were adopted by a unanimous vote. The fourth article, covering the Proposed Town Meeting Act, was adopted by a substantial majority. The bill has been filed for the 1963 session of the Legislature by Rep. Paul Menton and will be acted upon some time this spring. The new business considered by the Committee on Town Organization and structure during the past year includes the subject matter of Articles 91, 92 and 94 of the Annual Town Warrant for 1962. ARTICLES 91 AND 94 (AUSTRALIAN BALLOT) The Committee discussed the possible use of a vote by Australian ballot in Town Meeting when there is doubt concern- ing a voice vote. In Belmont, the Moderator may at his own discretion decide whether to call for a standing vote or a Yes or No vote by ballot. In certain other towns, the ballot is used reg- ularly on fiscal questions. ANNUAL REPORTS — 1963 155 The Committee recognizes that some Town Meeting Mem- bers would feel less subject to pressure when voting by secret ballot. It believes, however, that there are other factors involved which deserve further consideration, and it is not prepared to make a recommendation to the Town Meeting in 1963. RECOMMENDATION ... .. .. . ARTICLE 92 (Stabilization Fund) Within the past five years a number of towns in the Com- monwealth have appropriated money to establish and build up stabilization funds, whether by adding to the tax levy or by trans- fer from the Excess and Deficiency Account. Such a fund, built up over the years, earns a substantial amount of interest and also saves money by reducing the amount of borrowing necessary for capital expenditures. The history of the Arlington stabiliza- tion fund may be taken as an illustration: ARLINGTON STABHJZATION FUND Appropriated — 1958 $150,000 Appropriated — 1959 100,000 Income (interest, etc.) 12,859 Appropriated — 1961 50,000 Income 16,474 $329,333 Withdrawn for Stratton School 100,000 Balance, December 31, 1961 $229,333 Appropriated — 1962 125,000 Total $354,333 The Committee believes that it would be desirable to have a stabilization fund in Watertown, especially if steps were taken at the same time to provide an orderly plan for future capital outlay. The Committee therefore Recommends that the Town establish a Stabilization Fund, with an initial appropriation for this purpose of not less than $25,000 nor more than $100,000, said sum to be placed on the tax levy or transferred from the Excess and Deficiency Account, at the discretion of the Town Meeting. The Committee also recommends that the Town Meeting esta- blish a Committee of nine to make long-range plans for the Town's Capital outlay needs, said Committee to include, ex officiis, a member of the Board of Selectmen, a member of the Finance Committee, a member of the School Committee, a member of the Planning Board, the Treasurer, the Auditor and, in addition, three citizens appointed by the Moderator. 156 TOWN OF WATERTOWN To implement these recommendations, the Committee will insert articles in the 1963 Annual Town Warrant substantially as follows: ARTICLE 81 To see if the Town will vote to establish a Stabili- zation Fund, with an initial appropriation for this purpose of not less than $25,000 nor more than $100,000, direct how said sum shall be raised, or take any action relating thereto. (Request of Committee on Town Organization and Structure) ARTICLE 98 To see whether the Town will vote to establish a committee of nine to make long-range plans for the Town's capital outlay needs, said committee to include, ex ofilciis, a member of the Board of Selectmen, a member of the Finance Committee, a member of the School Committtee, a member of the Planning Board, the Treasurer, the Auditor, each to be appointed by the Moderator each year and 3 citizens to be appointed by the Moderator; providing that of the three citizens to be so appointed, one shall be appointed for a term of five years, one for four years, and one for three years; and that on the expiration of the term of any of these first three citizens so appointed, his successor shall be appointed for a term of three years, or take any action relating thereto. (Request of Com- mittee on Town Organization and Structure. When the Committee on Town Organization and Structure was appointed, two other matters were still pending from the report of its predecessor, the Committee of Seven, namely, re- consideration of Town Meeting votes and nonpartisan voting in Town elections. At its first meeting May, 1962, the Committee decided to post- pone indefinitely further study of the subject of reconsideration of Town Meeting votes. The Committee studied and discussed at length the question of nonpartisan voting in Town elections, and a subcommittee under the chairmanship of Mr. Wellman compiled information about the practice in other towns of the Commonwealth. Al. though the majority of these towns hold nonpartisan local elec- tions, in many cases there is no solid information as to how the present system of voting was brought about. The Committee studied in some detail Chapter 149, Acts of 1955, under which the Town of Amherst is authorized to hold nonpartisan local elections. It also studied Chapter 491, Acts of 1945, which provides for the holding of a nonpartisan preliminary election in the Town of Dracut. ANNUAL REPORTS — 1963 157 Any recommendation on this subject from the Committee must deal with the desirability as well as the feasibility of a change in the method of election of Town officials. At present candidates are nominated by party caucuses in which only a small percentage of the registered voters take part. The following table gives the Caucus for the past five years.

RECOMMENDATION . .. .. .. . Non-partisan Preliminary Election It is felt that a change in the procedure for nominating Town officials would encourage greater participation on the part of the electorate. The Committee therefore recommends that the Town Meeting be asked to vote on the following articles: ARTICLE 93 To see if the Town will vote to recommend hold- ing nonpartisan preliminary elections and further regulating the contents of ballots used in the Town, or take any action relating thereto. (Request of Committee on Town Organization and Struc- ture.) ARTICLE 94 To see if the Town will vote to direct the Selectmen to file with the Massachusetts Legislature for action in the year 1964 the following special legislation relating to nonpartisan pre- liminary elections and regulating the contents of ballots used in the Town: AN ACT PROVIDING FOR NON-PARTISAN PRELIMINARY ELECTIONS IN THE TOWN OF WATERTOWN, AND REGULATING THE CONTENTS OF BALLOTS USED AT ELECTIONS IN SAID TOWN. Be it enacted as follows: SECTION 1. Any person who is qualified to vote in the town of Watertown may be a candidate for an elective town office therein and shall be entitled to have his name as such candidate printed on the official ballot to be used at a pre- liminary election; provided, that he shall file nomination papers provided by the town clerk containing no less than fifty signa- tures certified as voters of the town. 158 TOWN OF WATERTOWN SECTION 2. The preliminary election shall be held on the twenty-eighth day preceding every regular or special town election. SECTION 3. No primary or caucus for the nomination of town officers shall be held. No ballot used at any preliminary, regular or special election in said town shall have printed thereon any party or political designation or mark, and there shall not be appended to the name of any candidate any such political designation or mark. SECTION 4. Nomination papers must be filed with the town clerk not later than five o'clock in the afternoon of the twenty-first day preceding the preliminary election. Every nomination paper shall be submitted to the registrars of voters for certification of the names thereon on or before five o'clock in the afternoon of the seventh day preceding the day on which it must be filed with the clerk. SECTION 5. The election officers shall immediately upon the closing of the polls at the preliminary election, count the ballots and ascertain the number of votes cast in the several voting places for each candidate, and forthwith make return thereof upon blanks to be furnished, as in regular elections, to the town clerk who shall canvass said returns and shall forthwith determine the result thereof. SECTION 6. The two persons receiving at a preliminary election the highest number of votes for nomination for an office shall be the sole candidates for that office whose names may be printed on the official ballot to be used at the regular or special election at which such office is to be filled, and no acceptance of a nomination at a preliminary election shall be necessary to its validity. If two or more persons are to be elected to the same office at such regular or special election the several persons in num- ber equal to twice the number so to be elected receiving at such preliminary election the highest number of votes for nomination for that office shall be the sole candidates for that office whose names may be printed on the official ballot. If the preliminary election results in a tie vote among candidates for nomination receiving the lowest number of votes, which, but for said tie vote, would entitle a person re- ceiving the same to have his name printed upon the official ANNUAL REPORTS — 1963 159 ballot for the election, all candidates participating in said tie vote shall have their names printed upon the official ballot, although in consequence there be printed thereon names of candidates to a number exceeding twice the number to be elected. SECTION 7. If at the expiration of the time for filing nomination papers of candidates to be voted for at any pre- liminary election not more than twice as many such papers have been filed with the town clerk for an office as there are persons to be elected to such office, the candidates whose nomination papers have thus been filed shall be deemed to have been nominated to said office, and their names shall be voted on for such office at the succeeding regular or special election, as the case may be, and the town clerk shall not print said names upon the ballot to be used at said preliminary election and no other nomination to said office shall be made. If in con- sequence it shall appear that no names are to be printed upon the official ballot to be used at any preliminary election in the town, no preliminary election shall be held. SECTION 8. Except as otherwise provided in this act, the laws of the commonwealth governing town elections, special elections of town officers and special elections in towns shall, so far as applicable, govern such elections in the town of Watertown. SECTION 9. Town Meeting member nomination papers must be filed with the town clerk not later than five o'clock in the afternoon of the twenty-eighth day preceding the town election. Every such nomination paper shall be submitted to the registrars of voters for certification of the names thereon on or before five o'clock in the afternoon of the seventh day preceding the day on which it must be filed with the town clerk. Incumbent Town Meeting Members may become candidates for reelection by giving written notice to the town clerk not later than fourteen days prior to the last day and hour for filing town meeting nomination papers. SECTION 10. This Act shall be submitted to the voters of the town of WATERTOWN at the annual town meeting to be held in the year nineteen hundred and sixty-four, in the form of the following question, which shall be printed on the official ballot used for the election of town officers: "Shall an act passed by the general court in the year nineteen hundred and sixty-four entitled " 'An Act providing for non-partisan preliminary elections in the town of Watertown, and regulating the contents of ballots used at elections in said town', be ac- 160 TOWN OF WATERTOWM cepted?" If a majority of the voters voting thereon vote in the affirmative in answer to said question, this act shall there- upon take full effect, but not otherwise, or take any action relating thereto.

This study resulted in a comprehen- sive plan and a proposed new zoning by-law. This study represents two years of intensive work by the Planning Board and it's plan- ning consultants, Planning Services Group of Cambridge, Massa- chusetts. This plan was scheduled to be completed in November of this year, however, the State Department of Commerce ex- tended the time for it's completion to December 31, 1963. The Planning Board in it's 1963 budget requested and re- ceived one thousand dollars to print and distribute an explanation of both the plan and the proposed new zoning by-law to the townspeople. Extending the time for the contract resulted in the Planning Board being unable to print and distribute this explana- tion in 1963. The Planning Board not having expended this sum in 1963 has returned it to the town and will request the Finance Com- mittee to return this amount to it in addition to it's 1964 bud- get requests in order that the townspeople will have available to them this study which they have been so patiently awaiting. The first part of the year was devoted to completing the public planning area meetings and consulting with various town officials. The information gathered from these meetings was use- ful in writing the comprehensive plan. The second part of the year was given over to making the final decisions regarding policies and proposals of the plan and the proposed new zoning by-law. It is the wish of the Planning Board that this plan will be used to guide the town in the years to come. The Planning Board will hold a public hearing early in 1964 on the proposed new zoning by--law and will present it to the special town meeting to be held in the Spring. The Planning Board believes that the adoption of the by-law will benefit the town considerably and that it is the first of many steps to be taken to implement the comprehensive plan. There were no requests for zoning changes in 1963. Conse- quently the Board held no public hearings. 186 TOWN OF WATERTOWN In the coming year the Planning Board is requesting funds for the following: 1. For consulting services in order that the Board may prop- erly advice the Selectmen on the sale and purchase of land. 2. So that it may consult with town and state agencies on traffic impact and street changes. 3. To provide for a major study of Watertown Square to determine if an urban renewal program would be advisable. 4. To provide for a study of special projects that may arise in the current year. The Planning Board believes that these funds are necessary if it is to function properly in the best interest of the town. Respectfully submitted Francis J. Maloney, Chairman Giaocchino J. Zollo, Secretary Edward Holland Kevin Lynch Robert L. Shutt ANNUAL REPORTS — 190 187 REPORT OF THE VETERANS' SERVICES Eighteen years have now passed since the close of World War 11, and eight since the end of the Korean conflict, so that as a result of time passage, the average age of our veteran popula- tion has advanced to the point where even the youngest Korean veteran is about thirty, the typical World War H veteran is forty- five, and World War I veterans, between sixty-seven and seventy- five, and Spanish War veterans are no longer a significant factor in our veteran population. The principal contributing incidents to financial need in veterans' families at present are as follows: unskilled Korean veterans who have difficulty locating new jobs when laid off; World War II veterans who suffer mental and physical break- downs before their families are fully grown; and World War I widows who are unable to maintain homes on Social Security benefits and V. A. pensions. In 1963, the cost of Veterans' benefits in Watertown, jumped about $5,000.00, or 6 7o over the previous year. This increase was attributable partially to a higher budget scale which went into effect in May, and to greatly increased hospital expense for the care of dependents. The heavier cost was somewhat unexpected, since the Federally aided categories of Public Welfare Department have heen so broadened in eligibility in recent years, that there are fewer citizens who may now be exclusively served under the Veterans Benefit Program. A state trend towards the consolida- tion of all departments dealing in health, education, and welfare, patterned after the National cabinet level department, is now being studied, and the trend of legislative thinking in this direc- tion is now become more positive. One likely result will be a administrative costs beginning in a year or two when some con- crete results of the studies now taking place, are felt. John F. Corbett Agent REPORT OF THE PURCHASING AGENT During the year a total of 5932 orders were issued — includ- ing 1640 for the School Department. There were a total of 272 sealed bids — including 1031 major Items used by all departments. William F. Oates Purchasing Agent 188 TOWN OF WATERTOWN REPORT OF THE CIVIL DEFENSE AGENCY In the recurring pattern that has seemed to take place since 1950 when Civil Defense was reactivated, 1963 could be consid- ered a quiet year, as compared to 1962, when the Cuban crisis, plus the adoption of the first phase of the Federal Shelter Pro- gram made for a very busy time. Congress in 1963 failed to take action on the second step of the Shelter Program which calls for Federal incentive payments to business and industry, to help finance the inclusion of fall-out shelter spaces in new plant con- struction. The impact of such a cycle is that local programs of Civil Defense encounter great difficulties inducing citizens to take training during the so-called "quiet" years. This is unfortunate because the need for trained radiation monitor personnel, shelter managers, and persons with the knowledge of medical self-help is at its greatest at this time, as a necessary element of a work- able nation]. program of Civil Defense to complement our military strength. Watertown's most pressing need apart from the candidates for training mentioned above, is for physical improvements at the Control Center at the Highway Garage, to make the area both 100010 radiation proof, and habitable, for an extended period of time. The State Civil Defense Agency this year moved into a com- pletely underground headquarters at Framingham, costing nearly $3,000,000. Our neighboring communities of Waltham, Natick and Weston have all transferred their Civil Defense operations centers to new locations, which are fall-out safe. These moves have required substantial expenditures of money, whereas our community could achieve the same result with a much smaller outlay, since the physical design of our present center is 90%, satisfactory, an advantage that our neighbors did not have. Modi- fications such as installation of a ventilating system and toilet facilities are required, however, to attain a satisfactory location for carrying out the tasks that will be imposed by a fall-out situation. In addition, all governmental operations for the town will likely have to be carried out from the Control Center for several days after an attack. It is hoped that the town meeting will see the wisdom of ap- propriating the necessary funds in 1964. John F. Corbett Director of Civil Defense ANNUAL REPORTS — 1963 189 REPORT OF THE WIRE DEPARTMENT INSPECTIONS Seven hundred and ninety-three (793) permits for wiring and fixture installations and five (5) annual permits for plant opera- tions were issued during the year. Inspections and reinspections occasioned by the issuance of these permits plus inspections of buildings and 'business properties to be reoccupied resulted in approximately thirty-two hundred (3200) individual calls. Receipts for permits in the amount of $411.50 has been paid to the Town Treasurer. 11ZAINTENANCE The regular recurrent maintenance work of repairing, test- ing, oiling and cleaning 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 conditions. 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 $924.40, this includes labor and materials to Town owned traffic lights, Fire and 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. FIRE ALARM HEADQUARTERS This Division is on a 24 hour a day basis and handled one hundred and sixty-five (165) alarms of fire from boxes pulled on the streets; one hundred and thirty-five (135) alarms of fire received by telephone, two thousand five hundred and eighteen (2518) alarms received over our Mutual Aid circuits; fifteen (15) alarms of fire received over A.D.T. Circuits. The following tests were made by operators; Mutual Aid (4330), Auxiliary Generator 190 TOWN OF WATERTOWN (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 emergency work on Fire Alarm, Police and Traffic light breakdowns. Again I wish to call your attention to the fact that the Fire Alarm is operated with one man to a shift. This is a dangerous situation as one operator is on duty during an eight hour shift and the fire alarm headquarters is an isolated room in the base- ment 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. telephone board from Fire Head- quarters to Fire Alarm Headquarters and putting the personnel under the supervision of the Fire Departmnt, which I strongly recommend for the safety of the public and the safety of the operators. AM33ROSE P. VAHEY Superintendent of Wires REPORT OF THE PARK DEPARTMENT The Superintendent of Parks and Park Department have done an excellent job keeping the parks, deltas, tennis courts, skating rinks in top condition. This is no easy task as the number of activities that the Recreaton Department, Schools, and various clubs have are on the increase, while the number of men working in the department remains the same. The .fences surrounding Victory Field and West Junior Play- ground were painted this year, adding to the beauty of these two fields. During the winter months all bleachers and field houses are repaired and painted to prepare for the coming spring season. All the swings that the children of Watertown enjoy so much are repaired during the inclement weather. We have purchased one piece of new equipment, a Toro 76 inch Professional Power Mower and lights were installed at Bemis Playground for night games and night skating for the benefit of all. Frederick A. Parshley, Jr., Chairman John Manning, Clerk Paul Whittemore ANNUAL REPORTS — 1963 191 REPORT OF THE TREE WARDEN Approximately two hundred and seven (247) trees were plant- ed 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 he 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 forty-two (142) decayed and injured trees were removed during the year — fifty-four (54) of these had the Dutch Elm disease. Thomas P. Morley Tree Warden REPORT OF THE BOARD OF APPEALS From January 1, 1963 through December 31, 1963 the Board heard and decided thirty-six appeals. Two cases are pending court decisions. Many of the appeals heard were cases of first impression re- quiring extensive legal research in order to reach sound con- clusions of law. The Board took views of the subject premises of the appeals and the areas in which they were located 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 understanding, to give full consideration to the ap- plicable laws and statutes, to the interests of the appellants, abut- ters and neighbors and to the interest of the Inhabitants of the Town of Watertown. We trust that our decisions reflect our work, effort and diligence. We note that our recommendation for revision of the Zoning By-law has been met with and the proposed By-law will be ready to be presented at the 1964 Town Meeting. Christopher J. Christopher, Chairman Thomas F. Tracy, Clerk Lawrence E. Maloney, Member 192 TOWN OF `VATERT011W REPORT OF THE COUNCIL FOR THE AGING ACTIVITIES OF 1963 During the past year 12 trips were made by the elder citizens of this Town to the following locations: Summer — Hampton Beach 2 Salem Willows 1 Nantasket :9 Fall — Goff's Falls 2 Nashua 1 Mohawk Trail a Winter — Portsmouth 1 Andover 1 Carver y For the above listed trips, the Council has been asked to thank the Town for enjoyable moments otherwise unavailable to those who participated. PROJECTS FOR 1-964 In the coming year this Council hopes to afford these wonder- ful people a Drop-in-Center in the vicinity of Watertown Square. This Center will allow these senior citizens to relax with their own age group, hold meetings, run cake, rummage and white ele- phant sales and to have a central location which will inform them of coming events held in this town and else where in the state. We hope the Senior Citizens Club will be enlarged to twice its present size, and to be more active in its endeavors and projects. The tremendous growth of citizens in this age group is well known to everyone. We, in the Town of Watertown, should be ready to exercise our duty and privilege of being prepared to offer relax- ation and recreation to these same people, who by their tax dol- lars of so many years provided us with the same opportunities. Walter J. Oates, Jr., Chairman ANNUAL REPORTS — 1963 193 REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES OF THE FREE PUBLIC LIBRARY The Watertown Library suffered this year the loss of its Head Librarian. Miss Catharine M. Yerxa, who had administered the Library since 1949, retired on October 1st. Miss Yerxa's retirement is a severe loss to the Library. Her ad- ministration had covered a particularly difficult period of chronic personnel shortages, yet she maintained a staff of the highest standards, and extended the service of the Library in many di- rections. During her years the physical plant of the Library was greatly expanded, permitting the improvement of existing and the in- troduction of new services. Notable changes were the introduction of the record collection with an accompanying expansion of the Music and Art Departments the introduction of film loans, and the timely expansion of the Young Adult Department. The whole town paid an impressive tribute to Miss Yerxa at a public reception sponsored by the Friends of the Library and the Art Association. The Trustees wish to here record their deep sense of apprecia- tion to Miss Yerxa for her distinguished administration of the Library. After posting the position with the leading library schools and advertising in the professional journals the Trustees received nineteen application for the vacancy created by Miss Yerxa's re- tirement. After very careful review of the applications and many interviews, the Trustees selected Mr. Joseph S. Hopkins, then Director of the Meadville, Penn., Public Library and he assumed the position on October 14. Mr. Hopkins holds a Masters Degree from Simmons Library School and had experience at the Provi- dence Public Library and on the faculty of Simmons in addition to that at Meadville. He brings to Watertown, we believe, the ex- perience and personal qualifications which will make him a head Librarian in the Watertown tradition. Librarians go and come, but certain problems remain with us. The shortage of personnel, largely due to the inadequacies of the salary schedule, is becoming critical. We are returning to the 194 TOWN OF WATERTOWN town this year $10,000 in our salary account which results from unfilled vacancies during the year. Two retirements at year end will bring us to the point where services will have to be curtailed to some degree by a reduction in hours. CHARLES T. BURKE, Chairman REPORT OF THE LIBRARIAN To the Trustees of the Watertown Free Public Library: The 96th Annual Report of the Watertown Free Public Library is herewith submitted. PERSONNEL In 1963, Miss Catharine M. Yerxa, Chief Librarian for fourteen years, retired after a distinguished career, and in October, Joseph S. Hopkins was appointed to fill that position. Resignations con- tinued to hamper library service. The condition was aggravated by the library's inability to compete effectively in the recruitment of professional ilbrarians. Two retirements at the beginning of 1964 makes the future look bleak. Four general assistants and two professional librarians re- signed, and one new professional position was created in the Children's Department to alleviate its heavy work load. Replace- ments were found for the general assistants, but a yearly effort to recruit professional trained librarians failed. The failure has been heavily felt by the existing staff in that they have been called upon to cover departments outside of their training and experience and to assume additional evening work. The result has been a loss of productivity, efficiency and morale. BUILDINGS A major painting program was completed. Most of the main library's public rooms and many of its working areas were at- tractively brightened by new paint. The West Branch was com- pletely repainted. LIBRARY USE Adult book borrowings showed a slight but steady upward trend. An analysis by the staff, of what Watertown borrowers are reading, indicated that prominent personalities and contemporary ANNUAL REPORTS — 1963 195 events played an important role in the readers' choice. Interest and concern with Pope John XXIII, the Ecumenical Council, Civil Rights, and pesticides were reflected and augmented by the great demand for books authored by Morris West, James Baldwin and Rachel Carson. Continued favorites, high in popularity, were the writing of J.D. Salinger, Taylor Caldwell and Samuel Eliot Mori- son. These latter authors steadily enlisted a loyal and special following. Salinger captured youth, Caldwell stirred the feminine heart, and Morison recorded the memories of veterans of World War H. The Reference-Information Service is one of the library's strongest assets. Public use is substantial and grows greater with each expansion and intensificaton of our educatonal system. Fu- ture use will accelerate.In 1963, close to 18,000 bits of information were requested of the Information and Young Adult Departments of the Library. Users needed such diverse items as cooking recipes for heart patients, the Watertown Plumbing Code, a picture of an Etruscan warrior and President Kennedy's address to the United Nations. The library was able to accommodate all but one percent of these requests. Junior and Senior high school assignments continued to plague and press the resources of the library in terms of books, space and personnel. Efforts to alleviate this ever increasing de- mand thru coordination with the schools have been largely in- effectual. A Watertown School curricula handbook, soon to be published, may provide some needed assistance and guidance. A heavy work load and insufficient staff has limited the ability of the Children's Department to expand, promote, and develop valuable programs for children. Yet despite limitations, the library service to children was impressive. Staff visits to schools, class visits to the library, story hours, movies and sum- mer reading clubs were maintained at a high level of effort and response. Borrowed children's books rose better than 2�10 to a yearly total of 156,096, more than half the library's total circula- tion, and new registrations for children's cards climbed 22%. Elementary school and teacher interest and participation in library activites have been good. The Friends of the Watertown Public Library enlarged the library's use. They brought stimulating speakers and an appre- ciative audience to within our walls. There varied programs in- cluded a political cartoonist, drama critic and a Three Day Book 196 TOWN OF WATERTOWN Fair featuring Watertown authors. The Friends, in conjuction with the Watertown Art Association, co-sponsored an outstanding reception at the Phillips School in honor of Miss Catharine M. Yerxa, the retiring Chief Librarian. SPECIAL NOTE At the beginning of 1964 the Watertown Public Library will regretfully note the loss of three of its most experienced and competent librarians. Miss Catharine M. Yerxa, Chief Librarian, Mrs. Esther E. Testa, Librarian in Charge of the North Branch, and Mrs. Ruth L. Elphick, Children's Librarian at the East Branch, will have retired after a combined service of eighty-one years; eighty-one years of single minded devotion to the endeavor of presenting the world of books to the adults and children of the Watertown community. Miss Yerxa began her life long work at the Watertown Public Library in 1918, leaving in 1928 for the Boston Athenaeum and later for the Division of Public Libraries of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. She returned to Watertown in 1949 as Chief Librarian. In her administration library facilities were modernized and expanded and new programs instituted. Largely through her efforts the Watertown Public Library maintained a high level of competence and prominence noted throughout the State. Mrs. Testa came to the library in 1930. Eight years later she assumed charge of the North Branch at Waverly Avenue and Or- chard Street and over the following years developed this branch into a congenial center for questing minds of young and old. Mrs. Elphick started her library career in 1916 at Medford, Massachusetts, later moving to Somerville and New Jersey. She came to Watertown in 1941. At the East Branch on Mount Auburn Street she created and expanded a vital library program for chil- dren which won her a loyal and faithful following. Her work achieved regional recognition when she was selected to present the coveted Caroline Hewins lecture, devoted to children's library service, at the annual conference of the New England Library Association for 1964. The library is deeply proud of these three women, who in the pursuit of excellence in their chosen fields, added dignity, integrity, and human warmth in service to their community. JOSEPH S.

ANNUAL REPORTS — 1963 201 REPORT OF THE BOARD OF HEALTH To the Citizens of Watertown: The Board of Health respectfully submits the report of the Health Officer and Agent as the Annual Report of the Health, Department for the year ending December 31, 1963. Regular monthly and special meetings were held in compli- ance with the By-Laws and when particular issues deserved our consideration. Areas of particular interest to the Board of Health this year and given considerable attention — 1. Public Health Education 2. Infectious and chronic diseases 3. Health Regulations, state and local 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. JULIAN FELLONI, Chairman Mrs. Marie S. Andrews, Clerk REPORT OF HEALTH OFFICER AND AGENT As a new program, the Health Department conducted a di- abetes detection program for 1963 in conjunction with National Diabetes Week. This we hope will become a routine program to be conducted annually. The year 1963 terminated the oral Sabin program except for clinics for infants. By the end of May 1963 the Health Department had administered a record number of immunizations of oral vac- cine. In twelve months from May 1962 to May 1963, 43,504 doses of vaccine were given to children and adults in the Town of Watertown. The total number of immunization and tests ad- ministered by the Health Department for the year 1963 was 26,752. This total is the highest in the history of the Health Department. 202 TOWN OF WATERTOWN The Mantoux tests are relatively few in number because the bulk of the program is scheduled for the spring of the 1963-1964 school year. With the approval of the Board of Health, the department is actively programming an on-going immunization clinic to be held at regular intervals. This program would give booster doses against those diseases wherein the level of immunity is known to have decreased significantly. Typhoid fever, Tetanus, diphtheria and smallpox are in this area. During the year we were successful in recovering approximate- ly 50% of our filing space, thereby reclaiming for reuse half of the existing area the Health Department uses for various filing systems. The re-arranging of the filing system for more efficient operation is now in process. The environmental health program is being re-organized with more emphasis being placed on a fuller and more efficient use of the laboratory, more extensive and intensive efforts in the areas of pollution control, housing and more comprehensive system of evaluating the community's general food and dairy products sup- ply and the service establishments involved in the processing, storage and distribution of these products. During the year the staff of the department has been en- couraged to take part in in-service training opportunities which they have done with undoubted benefit to the community. These programs have been offered through both the Massachusetts De• partment of Public Health and the United States Department of Health, Welfare and Education as training courses in various institutions of higher learning in the Commonwealth and as sem- inars and workshops in various hospitals and other treatment facilities throughout this state. During the year, your Health Officer has been actively work- ing as a member of the executive committee of the Massachusetts Health Officers Association to provide more and better in-service training programs for local county and state public health per- sonnel. The beginning of what is hoped to be a truly progressive and on-going program was scheduled to start in the fall of 1963. This involved considerable effort on the part of the Executive Committee of the Health Officers Association, Division of Research and training of the Massachusetts Department of Public Health. ANNUAL REPORTS — 1963 203 PUBLIC HEALTH PHYSICIAN Eugene F. Gorman, M.D. The routine yearly examination of pupils in the schools as- signed were carried out in grades 1,4,7 and 10.

ANNUAL REPORTS — 1963 209 New emphasis was employed upon the laboratory bacterio- logical analysis of eating utensils from Watertown's eating and drinking establishments to demonstrate to the operators the significance of sound public health practices in this phase of sanitation. This will be continued in 1964 along with public notice of the results and educational classes for operators. Concentrated efforts of Air Pollution Control surveys were realized. This phase of environmental health warrants a high pri ority because of a heavy industrial complex intermingled with residential areas. Preservation of this natural resource — the air we breathe — is vital to the health of our community and our neighboring communities. This pollution of the atmosphere, caused by existing or any future air contaminants, may be con- trolled by our surveillance efforts, strict law enforcement and public support. Scientific research has bolstered the tools and broadened the fields of the sanitarian. Minimum housing standards, Air Pollution Control, modern methods of municipal refuse disposal are innova- tion which the Board of Health and the Health Officer will ad- ministrate for the coming year. The appointment of an additional public health sanitarian materialized in 1963 for the planned increase in environmental health services for Watertown citizens. 210 TOWN OF WATERTOWN Plumbing and Sanitation — Jan. 1, 1963 to Mar. 17, 1963 Plumbing and Gas Fitting — Mar. 18, 1963 to Dec. 31, 1963 Edward L.

On the average, a gas inspection involves more time and detail than a plumbing inspec- tion. Very briefly, appliances installed must be checked for com- pliance with the State Gas Code and A.G.A. Listings, all piping and appliances must be mercury tested for tightness and all piping and connections must be properly sized for adequate fuel supply. I believe it is needless for me to state how dangerous, and pos- sibly disastrous, undersized piping, gas leaks, faulty appliances, improper flues and vents and lack of sufficient air could be. It may be of interest to note that the amount received by the Town for plumbing permit fees represents a $432,477.70 total of installed plumbing. DENTAL PROGRAM MAX ZELERMYER, A.B., D.M.D. PHILIP D. FANTASIA, D.D.S. JANET D. LITTLE, D.H. LOUISE E. BICK, D.H. The fiscal year 1963 has witnessed a normal routine program fulfilled in the dental clinics functioning in the public and parochial schools of Watertown. The two simultaneously operated clinics have been compelled to make minor slight time adjustments, as the needs indicated, to compensate for the shifts in various school enrollments. Consequently, time allotments to some schools have been curtailed and increased in others, in proportion to the num- ber of children. Conditions, this year, have been found to be noticeably im- proved, generally speaking , in comparison with oral health found in our school children in the immediate past several years. We, in the dental clinics, may justifably lay claim to some of the credit for the presence of an increased amount of dental repairs, as well as orthodontia found manifest in the mouths of Water- town's school children. The indicated needs could conceivably have been overlooked in many instances and may have gone unnoticed, were it not for the timely and systematic regular screening ex- amination, with follow-up notifications sent home from our clinics. As in the past, Doctors Philip Fantasia and Max Zelermyer 212 TOWN OF WATERTOWN have alernated their duties bimonthly in the respective clinics operated on a full-time basis by Mrs. Louise Bick and Mrs. Janet Little. The public and parochial schools visited this year were: Browne, Cunniff, Marshall Spring, Lowell, Hosmer, Phillips, Coolidge, Parker, St. Patrick's and Sacred Heart Schools. Dr. Max Zelermyer was awarded a certificate by Tufts Uni- versity for his completion of a course in Oral Cancer during the year and, in February, 1964, will have completed twenty-five years of Civil Service in our clinic for the Board of Health of Watertown. The composite statistics for the dual clinics follow: Examinations 4343 Fillings 1715 Extractions 63 Treatments 32 Prophylaxes 523 PUBLIC HEALTH NURSING District No. 1 —Louise M. Concannon, R.N. District No. 2 —Mary A. Carr, R.N. The Health Department continued its program of supervi- sion and follow-up of reportable contagious disease cases of both patients and contacts. Regarding tuberculosis cases during 1963, there were four admissions to Middlesex County Sanatorium, two re-admissions, and three discharges. One patient was transferred from Rutland State Sanatorium to Middlesex County Sanatorium and one patient admitted to Norfolk County Hospital. There were ninety-six (96) persons transported to and from Middlesex County Sanatorium. Home visits were made to T.B. patients and contacts, as well as various other contagious disease cases. Trips were also made to secure supplies for the clinics which were held during the year — to A.S. Aloe, American Laundry and Diagnostic and Biological Laboratories. Arranged for and assisted the Board of Health Physician at physical examinations of 400 pupils at St. Patrick Elementary and ANNUAL REPORTS — 1863 213 High Schools and Sacred Heart School. Referral letters were sent to parents of all pupils who had positive findings. Daily visits, whenever possible, were made to St. Patrick Elementary and High Schools and Sacred Heart School throungh- out the school year, during which time the following was accom- plished: Screened the vision (via M.V.T.) of 151 pupils at Sacred Heart School and 107 pupils at St. Patrick High School; sent referral letters to parents of pupils who failed retests. Hearing tests were conducted on 648 pupils at St. Patrick Elementary School(, referrals were sent to parents of ten pupils who failed the tests. Results of all tests were noted on school records. Periodic inspections were made of the following, and reports given to the Agent on same: Watertown Home for Old Folks River Manor Nursing Home Rosary Academy Nursery School First Parish Nursery School Barbara Secord Dancing Studio Peggy Whyte's Dancing Studio Smith Convalescent Homes (2) Jeannette's Nursing Home Hidden Brook Nursery School Also inspected homes of persons who applied for massage license.

Armstrong, Supt. — Paul F. Murray, Commissioner Mosquito control followed essentially the same program as in recent years. Malathion was the principal material used on mosquito sources, except for street catch basins. The basins were sprayed with Dieldrin at the beginning of the Culex mosquito season. In mid-summer fuel oil was used. It was followed with a Baytex spray in August. There were no mosquito complaints from Watertown in 1963. However, after the season ended, one person reported annoyance from mosquitoes several months ago.

A total of 160 animals were quarantined after biting or scratching persons in Watertown in 1963. 2. The head of one animal was sent to the Wasserman Labor- atory in Jamaica Plain for examination for rabies. The examina- tion was negative. 3. There were no cases of rabies in Watertown in the past year. PAUL F. MURRAY Health Officer and Agent ANNUAL REPORTS — 1963 217 REPORT OF THE BOARD OF ASSESSORS In 1963, for the first time in many years, there was no in- crease in the tax rate. This was accomplished without a general assessment increase. The total new valuations of both real estate and personal property in the amount of $1,543,850.00 placed by the Board of Assessors during the year resulted in holding the tax rate. The Board was very pleased with this achievement and sin- cerely hopes that this trend will continue. The Poll Tax has now been eliminated, and the Legislature has passed, and the Governor has signed into law a bill providing a reduction up to $4000 on the assessed valuation of property owned by persons 70 years of age or older subject to certain qualfications. This in effect, reduces the amount of property sub- ject to the local tax rate. We certainly feel that these elderly people are justly entitled to this reduction in their property taxes. Other sources of income will have to be sought to broaden the tax base to offset this. The State offers no relief to us for this loss. RAYMOND J. MASSA, Chairman JAMES A. GILDEA, Clerk J.

SHEEHAN JOHN J. KENNEDY Auditor Collector of Taxes ANNUAL REPORTS — 1963 225 REPORT OF THE HIGHWAY DEPARTMENT I am asking for extra funds this year for Highway main- tenance, due to the fact that the past two years I have been un- able to perform the amount of surface treatment that has been the practice during -past years. In 1962 the department was with- out a roller most of summer which is the time that this work must be done, and due to a late start and lack of funds in 1963, we are about a year behind in this program. Traffic painting and signs are constantly on the increase, which cost are paid for out of this appropriation. Incinerator costs increased in 1963 over 1962 by an overall of $10,000 due to more maintenance costs, which of course will in- crease every year due to age, excessive heat and more burning. In 1962 we incinerated 15,431 tons of refuse at a cost of $4.28 per ton. In 1963 we incinerated 17,714 tons, an increase of Z283 tons, at a cost of $4.32 per ton. Receipts receivable in 1963 for disposal at the incinerator from industries, contractors and others, totalled approximately $18,500. In a period of one month (October) due to a break in the weather, the Highway Department constructed 600 feet of 66-inch drain and 620 feet of 60-inch drain through Gore Estate, now leased by Raytheon Company, at a cost of $50,000, which I esti- mate was an approximate saving to the town of $25,000. 226 TOWN OF WATERTOWN HIGHWAY APPROPRIATIONS Pay Rolls $606,893.00 Highway Overtime 18,000.00 Temporary Labor 8,400.00 Chapter 90 — 1963 61,600.00 Highway Construction 1,500.00 Highway Maintenance 20,000.00 General Maintenance 60,989.43 Highway Office 750.00 Garage Repairs 1,500.00 Highway Equipment 18,405.00 Highway Superintendent 9,240.00 Highway Assistant Superintendent 7,200.00 Highway Supervisor of Foremen 6,640.00 Highway Working Foreman Carpenter 5,935.00 Highway Timekeeper 5,350.00 Highway Principal Clerk 5,160.00 Highway Senior Clerk 4,320.00 Highway Transportation 300.00 Snow & Ice Removal 82,000.00 Sewer Construction 10,710.00 Sewer Maintenance 6,500.00 Sidewalk Construction 10,000.00 Sidewalk Maintenance 20,000.00 Ashes & Papers 4,000.00 Garbage 2,500.00- Drainage 17,500.00 Total Appropriations $995,422.43 Total Expenditures 903,706.40 Balance $91,716.03 Entered NAMES Town Employ Pensioned Deceased Caruso, James 4— 8-24 3— 1-47 11— 1-63 Johnston, E.

HAGOPIAN �3 TOWN TREASURER y O ANNUAL REPORTS — 1963 249 REPORT OF THE TOWN ENGINEER During the past year this department furnished lines and grades where required in the work of the Highway Department such as new sidewalk construction, new sewer and storm drain construction. One survey party is kept busy on the above work. The work of preparing plans for changes in location and new placement of parking meters was continued as in the past. 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 of Public Works. Each year new buildings 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 ori- ginal 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. This department prepared reports for the Town Counsel and investigated eight (8) accident claims by persons asking for dam- ages because of alleged defects on public ways.If court proceed- ings resulted from these claims, a member of this Department testified as to the conditions he found. Land Registrations filed with the Land Court concerning properties in the Town were checked by this Office to see that there was no encroachmnt on Town owned land and public streets. 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 Sewer and Drainage Committee, Parking Meter Committee, and Traffic Commissioner. The Town Engineer is a member of the above Committees and attended nearly every meeting held. SEWER AND DRAIN COMMITTEE This department has had an ever increasing work load since 250 TOWN OF WATERTOWN the inception of this committee five years ago. Our consultants, Fay, Spofford & Thordike, originally did all drain supervision and inspection of first and second phases, Hood Rubber Laundry Brook, California Park and Rosedale Road, Saltonstall Park Area and Acton Street. The Town Engineering Department performed all field work connected with these projects, including preliminary survey on the ground and preparing plans of same. We then furnished lines and grades for all construction performed by the various con- tractors. Doing this work by town forces brought about a sav- ings to the Town of thirty-five to forty thousand dollars. Following this work a contract was let in 1961 for work on the first part of Bemis Area System (constructed early 1963.) The En- gineering Department then took over additional work at a savings of about $12,000. The committee then decided to do all work on the continuing Bemis System with town forces. The Engineering Departmeni in this case designed, drew plans and performed all engineering work connected with job. Also we prepared contract plans and specification for manhole and syphon work that could be done by Town labor and equipment. This work is not complete but the original proposal by Fay, Spofford, and Thorndike for all engineer- ing services was $27,000. The Engineering Department thereby saved approximately this amount. Further extending the east end projects (Melendy Avenue, Nichols Avenue, Dartmouth Street, and School Street Area) we are new preparing plans for same. Work will probably commence during 1964 and extend into 19-65 with this department doing supervision and inspection. This phase will in all' probability be let out to contract. JAMES H.

An article for 1964 Town Meeting proposing changes on sign requirements and regulations has been prepared. We trust the Town Meeting will see fit to approve the proposed change. ELEVATORS: Annual inspection of all elevators was made during 1963. The Town has seventy-two elevators; this includes three installed during the year. The Department of Public Safety calls for many new regulation on elevators and escalators, effective January 1, 1964. It has been necessary to issue orders to discon- tinue the use of four until elevators are brought up to the standards of the new code. The owners of these elevators have given their full cooperation. ZONING BY-LAW: Numerous complaints and violations were reported, and all were investigated. Immediate cooperation was received by most violators. There were no prosecutions. BOARD OF APPEALS: Thirty-six request for variance, occupancy or special permits were filed with this Department. JAMES P. CLARK Inspector of Buildings ANNUAL REPORTS — 1963 257 REPORT OF THE FIRE DEPARTMENT The membership of the Fire Department at the close of the year 1963 is as follows: (1) Chief — (4) Deputy Chiefs — (4) Captains — (9) Lieutenants — (1) Mechanician — (84) Fire- fighters, for a total of 103 members. The total number of alarms for the year was 1,342 a decrease of 4 over the previous high of 1962. Of these, 1,058 were Still Alarms and 284 were Bell Alarms. The total number of False Alarms was 69 a decrease of 32 over the previous year. In addition the Fire Department assisted the Police Department, responding to 441 calls with the Ambulance. A condensed report on Fire Losses, Values and Insurance for the year is as follows: Insurance Values Losses Insurance Paid Buildings $1,026,000.00 $127,140.46 $914,800.00 $105,640.46 Contents 413,950.00 147,722.00 384,200.00 133,971.00 Totals $1,439,950.00 $274,862.46 $1,299,000.00 $239,611.46 A point of interest here is that $108,035.00 of our loss was for a General Alarm Fire which occurred on November 20th at No. 416 Arsenal Street. Loss from all other fires was $166,827.46. The total loss for the year 1963 was $78,920.40 less than that of 1962. Salaries It is my recommendation that the Salaries be in accordance with the requests made by the department members in the various Grades and Classifications to the Personnel Board. These requests are in line with those passed by the Massachusetts State Legis- lature under Permissive Legislation and which I recommeded in my report for the year 1962. Longevity Pay In compliance with a sense of the meeting vote taken at the Annual Town Meeting in March of 1963, I submit and recommend the amount of $9,500.00 as that which will be required in order to provide Longevity Pay for all the eligible members of the Depart- ment. 258 TOWN OF WATERTOWN New Officers The present ratio of officers to men in the department is far below that of surrounding communities, and that which was recommended by the National Board of Fire Underwriters in its recent survey. In order to insure and maintain efficiency, incentive and morale in the operaton of the department, I recommend, that (1) Deputy Chief; (1) Captain; and (2) Lieutenant promotions be made from the present ranks within the department. Radio Communications Due to the appropriation of the 1963 Town Meeting for Radio Communications, I am pleased to report that the Fire Depart- ment now has a separate radio transmitter for two way communi- cations, operating under a special and separate frequency as re- quired by the Federal Communications System. 1 New Triple Combination Pumper Engine No. 4 which has been out of service since October 25th, 1962 will be replaced by a new Maxim 1.000 gallon Class A Pump- ing Engine on or about January 2, 1964. Engine No. 2 which was delivered in 1937, has been in constant service ever since and, as previously reported, is no longer reliable for the Protection of life and Property. In addition, because of its age, repairs which may be required cannot be guaranteed. I recommend, that $28,000.00 be appropriated to replace En- gine No. 2. 2 Cars The Deputy Chief's car, a 1959 Chevrolet 4 door sedan, at the present time has gone well over 100,000 miles. It is constantly undergoing repairs and is no longer safe to operate as an emer- gency vehicle. The Fire Prevention Bureau has been using a 1948 Ford Panel truck in conjunction with its program. This fifteen year old vehicle was recently involved in an accident with an uninsured driver causing an estimated four hundred dollars damage. Repairs ANNUAL REPORTS — 1963 259 will not put this truck in good or safe operating condition and would be a waste of money. I recommend, the sum of $5,962.00 be appropriated to replace these two cars. Printing — Rules & Regulations An efficient Fire Department requires a comprehensive set of Rules and Regulations to guide its officers and men in the con- duct of their duties and obligations. The present rule book was issued and effective on May 1, 1929. Many of these rules and regulations have long since been outmoded and do not apply to a modern Fire Department. In order that a new set of Rules and Regulations may be drawn up, printed and distributed to each member of the department, I recommend, the sum of $800.00 be appropriated. Auxiliary Fire Department The Auxiliary Fire Department continues to show an avid interest in this important segment of Civil Defense, despite the fact, that its Engine No. 5 has been in the service of the regular fire department since October 25, 1962 replacing Engine No. 4. Its members have assisted the regular fire department on numer- ous occasions and I wish to extend my sincere thanks to the officers and men of the Auxiliary Fire Department for their loyal cooperation. Training Program Under the direction of our Drill Master and department officers, all members of the department received instructions and training in all phases of firefighting and emergency opera- tions. Due to the importance and hazardous nature of his work, a firefighter must be physically fit and possess certain specific knowledge concerning the work, if he is to perform his duties efficiently and with a minimum amount of risk to himself and his fellow firefighters. Our Training Program is based on a set of standard drills and evolutions which fit our department, apparatus, building and and special hazards. In part, the program is covered by group lectures and the distribution of "Company Drills' to the officers to standardize our procedure in all firefighting evolutions. The pur- pose being, that when a man from one company or station is detailed to another, due to manpower shortage or otherwise, he can immediately fit in with that unit and operate as part of a 260 TOWN OF WATERTOWN team. This program is standard procedure in many of our sur- rounding communities and is recommended by National and State Authorities. Fire Prevention The first duty of any Fire Protection Organization is the prevention of fires. For this purpose, the Fire Prevention Bureau has continued its comprehensive and vigorous program on a full time basis throughtout the year. This program in part includes the following: 1. Annual inspections of all Lodging Houses, Churches, Gas- oline Stations, Garage and Open-Air Parking Lots. 2. Semi-annual "In-Service Inspections" of dwellings, In- dustries, Stores, and other small Business Establishments. 3. Quarterly inspections of all Schools, Theatres, Nursing and Convalescent Homes. 4. Investigation of and approval or dis-approval of all Li- censes and Permits ralative to the storage, use and handling of all inflammable and hazardous fluids, solids and gases. 5. Numerous other activities, including lectures on Fire Prevention and Fire Protection to the owners and employees of various business establishments; instructions to school students under the Fire Marshall's Plan; the investigation of all complaints which come before the Fire Prevention Bureau and assisting the State Fire Marshall's Office, Appeals Board and other committees. Resignation and Retirement Ernest J. Melanson, a Veteran of World War 2, was appointed to the department on December 30, 1942 and resigned on Decem- ber 17, 1963. James F. Finnegan, a Veteran of World War 2, was appointed to the department on December 20, 1946 and retired on September 20, 1963. To Ernie and Jim, Thank you for your many years of devoted and loyal service and I extend our best wishes for a long, happy and prosperous life. THOMAS A. CONLON Chief of Fire Department 1C ANNUAL.

In addition, all "tips," whether anonymous or otherwise, are thoroughly in- vestigated. Although some of these "tips' prove to unfounded or it is impossible to gather sufficient evidence to present to the courts,we welcome all such assistance in our constant effort to keep the Town free of the gambling element. In 1963, the follow- ing "gambling" cases were prosecuted in the Waltham District Court and/or the Middlesex Superior Court: Being concerned in Setting Up and Promoting a Lottery . .. .. .. .1 Being concerned in Registering Bets . .. . . .. .... .. . . .. .... .. ... 1 Being Found in a Place w/Apparatus for Registering Bets . .. .. 1 Setting Up and Promoting a Lottery ... .. .. .. .... . . .. .. .. .. .. . 1 Registering Bets . . . .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .... .. .. .. ............ . 1 Using a telephone to Register Bets . .. .. .. .. .. ...... ... . .... ... 1 Allowing Premises to be Used for Gaming . .. .... .. .... .. ..... 1 Allowing 'an Illegality on Licensed Premises . .... .. .. .. .. ..... 1 Total 8 On several occasions we found it to our advantage to request assistance from the Department of Public Safety (State Police) in the conduct of our gambling investigations. In each instance such assistance was immediately forthcoming and rendered will- ingly. Frequent inspections were made of those establishments selling magazines, comic books, etc., with a view to preventing the sale or display of obscene or pornographic material. Because of the difference of opinion as to what constitutes obscenity, proprietors were requested to examine all material that is sent them and not to sell or display that which might be considered obscene. As of this writing, all proprietors are cooperating in this effort. 266 TOWN OF WATERTOWN JUVENILE DIVISION During the year ending 31 December 1963 there were two hundred and seventy-one (271) juveniles involved in more than one complaint. It should be noted that in many instances several several juveniles were involved in one complaint (e.g., Malicious Destruction of Property), while on the other hand there were cases of one juvenile being involved in multiple complaints (e.g., Motor Vehicle Violations).

Complaints involving juveniles not taken to court were handled in an informal manner after consultation with parents, clergy and teachers. In 1963 the Juvenile Division directly, or through the Court, recovered stolen property and secured restitution for money stolen and property damaged by juveniles to the amount of $1,141.85. Many potentially dangerous articles were taken from ju- veniles, including large quantities of firecrackers and fireworks.

Of this amount $5756.95 was for Conservation licenses and $2007.00 was for dog licenses. Fees amounting to $327.45 for writing Conservation Licenses were turned intc the Town Treasury. There was another decline in the number of dogs licensed. As Collector of Fees for the Board of Selectmen, the Town Clerk's Office turned into the Town Treasury the sum of $40, 331.50. TOWN MEETING The annual town meeting was completed in five sessions. The total sum appropriated was $8,449,745.11 and of this amount the sums of $371,200.00 was transferred from the Excess and De- ficiency Account; the sum of $370,000.00 was borrowed and the sum of $14,534.40 was paid from the parking meter funds. VITAL STATISTICS As of this writing, the office of Town Clerk has incomplete returns for the year in respect to births and deaths. This is be- cause the community has no hospital, the office must await re- turns furnished by neighboring towns and cities. A total of 379 couples filed Intentions of Marriage during 1963. The total number of marriages consummated, including records of Watertown persons married within the Commonwealth and whose records were forwarded to the Town Clerk, numbered 404. The foregoing total of 404 also includes out of town marriages taking place in Watertown. A total of 418 deaths, relating to persons who died in Water- town or Watertown residents who died out of Town, have been forwarded to the Secretary of State to date. This is an incomplete total as many returns have not as yet been received from neighboring towns and cities. The record of births relating to Watertown parents received in the office to date total 812. No births took place in the Town of Watertown for the year 1963. There was one birth received from outside the Commonwealth relating to Watertown parents. All other birth to Watertown parents took place in hospitals lo- cated in neighboring town and cities. ANNUAL REPORTS — 1963 279 CLAIMS AGAINST TOWN AND INVOLVING TOWN PROPERTY The office of Town Clerk processed 62 claims. The claims were mostly for alleged defects, etc., and for accidents involving town property, and town equipment. All such claims and reports of damage to town property are filed with the Town Clerk, who processes them for investigation, and files reports with the Town Counsel. DEATH RECORD INDEX COMPILED One of the outstanding accomplishments of the year was the compilation of a death record covering the years 1851 to 1962.

Sheehan Auditor 282 TOWN OF WATERTOWN REPORT OF THE WATERTOWN RECREATION DEPARTMENT FUNCTIONS The function of the Watertown Recreation Commission is to provide a year-round recreation program 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 development of new intersests and skills; education for safe and healthful living: constructive use of leisure time; opportunities for self-expres- sion and relaxation; and contribution toward character growth, social adjustment and good citizenship — these objectives of the Commission are aimed in providing a variety of activities for all ages within the four distinct seasons of the year. "The right to choose one's pursuits in one's own free time is democracy's Fifth Freedom." 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 employes hired during the year is necessary as it also involves the use of custodians, secre- taries, and various school personnel. Summer personnel also adds to the total as it involves mainly college students who work summers only. All prospective employes 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 every one the best and most satisfying use of his leisure time. During the year 1963 a two-day training program was pro- vided for summer playground employees. PROPERTIES The 1963 year-round recreation programs were superivsed on the following properties: 12 playgrounds — 7 tot-lots — 12 ANNUAL REPORTS — 1963 283 school buildings including St. Patrick's — Boston YWCA — Newton YMCA — Cambridge YWCA — MDC Pool —Boston Skating Club — Oakley Country Club — Wal-lex Rollerway — Randy's Bowl-a-Way — Riverside Bowling Lanes — and Sammy White's Bowl. Summer playground trips to Pleasure Island — Longwood Tennis Club —Historical Exucrsions in Watertown — Picnics at Storrow Drive MDC play area — Boatrides on Charles River — Sammy White's Bowl — and the Wal-Lex Roll-a-Way. EQUIPMENT LOANED For the year 1963 twenty-nine (29) organizations were loaned game equipment from the Recreation department. This service is growing each year as 1962 listed fourteen (14) organizations. PROGRAM The Recreation Commission sponsored a variety of 70 dif- ferent group activities during the year, as opposed to the 1962 total of sixty-four (64). I am happy to report that the overall suc- cess of the 1963 program was indicated by the fine attendance which increased in a number of activities over the previous year. Few activities were cancelled due to lack of interest. NEW PROGRAMS, 1963 Adult Tennis Association (summer & winter) Tennis Clinic (Instruction-indoors) Ten Pin Bowling (Winter & summer) Baton Twirling Instruction Historical Tour, Picnic, Boatride EXPANDED PROGRAMS PROGRAMS DROPPED, 1963 Outdoor Ice Skating Men's Conditioning Annual Field Day Square Dancing Children's Theatre Jr. High Touch Football (boys) Tennis-all-ages Playground Trips Bowling Swimming Summer Playgrounds Activities ATTENDANCE, 1963 The five year comparative figures will show differentials, either way, which are primarily due to weather conditions over a 284 TOWN OF WATERTOWN 12 month period, favorable or unfavorable for outdoor sponsored recreation activities. Even with increased activities in 1963 weather condtions, particularly the hot humid summer, were instrumental In showing a drop in attendance from the previous 1962 figures. COMBINED YOUTH AND ADULT COMPARATIVE A iL i reiv LANCE FIGURES 1959 1960 1961 1962 1963 157416 171,776 161,637 182,936 171,624 PROGRAM HIGHLIGHTS, 1963 Probably the most gratifying and successful program in- novation occurred during the summer months when the children were provided an all day special event including: an Historical Tour of Watertown, a picnic on the Charles River Play Area following the popular one hour and fifteen minute boat ride into Boston Harbor and back. A total of nine (9) trips were made in- volving almost 500 Watertown boys and girls between the ages of 8-14. In addition, each boy and girl received a very colorful Historical Map of Watertown. The promotion of an Adult Tennis Association of 50 men and women certainly proved an enjoyable and benficial group activity throughout the summer months. The registered members met two evenings a week at the Victory Field Courts during the entire summer. Instruction on Tennis fundamentals, court supervision, tournament play maintained a very enthusiastic group through out the entire outdoor tennis season. In addition to the promotion of the Adult Tennis Association, the Recreation Department's first Indoor Tennis Clinic, scheduled over a six week period last Spring encountered many fine praises. This program was successful and instrumental in the formation of the popular Adult Tennis Association. Another highlight for 1963 occurred last winter when a new Ten-Pin Bowling program for boys and girls at the senior high school level operated very smoothly for a ten (10) week period. Three afternoons a week a bus would transport forty to fifty highschool students to and from Allston. Transportation was provided by the bowling alley at no cost to the Recreation De- partment. 1964 will again, we hope, develop even greater en- thusiasm on this program. ANNUAL REPORTS — 1963 285 The annual playground Field Day returned to Saltonstall Park following an absence of eight years. The day's events were en- joyed by approxmately 2,200 children and parents and climaxed another successful recreation summer program. The annual Fourth of July Celebration, even though the fire- works display was cancelled, saw over-all estimated 30,000 persons enjoy the day's events. The afternoon visit to Victory Field by "Rex Trailer" and his caravan was just one of the many high- lights. Commendations are necessary for the magnificent program and fine work performed by the Watertown American Legion Organization in conducting the entire day's events. The department's indoor iceskating program initiated the sale of season tickets where four hundred 400) tickets were sold at a premium price; $2.00 covering the new ten (10) week program. Individual tickets were sold at the usual 350 per unit. The prevous fifteen (15) week program was reduced to ten (10) because of a previous six year loss of between $800 and $1.100 each year. With the cancellation of the five (5) sessions usually held in February and the innovation of the sale of season tickets, the new ten (10) week program is now self supporting and the attendance each week has surpassed the fifteen session program. This important program adjustment was approved following heavy consideration of facts submitted in a six page survey covering the period between 1957 and 1962. Miss Patricia Vahey ,well-known for her accomplishments in the art of Baton Twirling, is instructing the new recreation Baton Twirling program which started during the month of October. This program registered *one hundred (100) girls from grade four up thru grade twelve. The program will cover a 25 week period, meeting each Saturday between the hours of 9 to 12 a.m. There are three classes of instruction for beginners, inter- mediates, and advanced. Plans for public performances and uni- forms are already in progress due to the unexpected continual enthusiasm and interest by all girls participating in the program. PROGRESS Progressive steps taken by the Recreation Commission during the year 1963. were as follows: I. The year-round recreation program was expanded. 2. Additional equipment & supplies purchased to meet our needs. 286 TOWN OF WATERTOWN 3. Permanent office space secured in Administration build- ing to improve administrative procedures and responsibilities necessary in attaining a well-functioned program and department- al operations. 4. Permanent storage facilities for all supplies and equipment was secured on ground level at the Browne School. This will bene- fit the department greatly during the summer months when sup- plies and equipment are distributed to the various playgrounds, in addition to attaining efficient inventory control of all supplies. 5. Closer supervision of all activities assuring the citizens of the town a safe and enjoyable year-round recreation program. 6. Training programs for the staff helping to make for better organized and safer activities. 7. Additional office and program equipment proved beneficial for better departmental operations. 8. Three new events were added to the summer playground program. 9.The new summer program position of Arts and Crafts Supervisor will provide an improved summer Crafts program for future years. 10. The Recreation Department is affiliated with the National Recreation Association. This provides the department with materi- als and information regarding movements, progress and new programs taking place throughout the country. RECOMMENDATIONS The following steps are recommended: 1. The year-round program for 1964 be further expanded. 2. Development of a girls year-round program beyond the present scope of activity. 3. Evaluation of the condition and rate of progress of the department. 4. Expanding the volume of equipment to meet*the needs. ANNUAL REPORTS — 1963 287 5. Streamlining operations of the department in such a way that all functions of the department are properly scrutinized and evaluated. 6. Research, studies, surveys, evaluations and reports be made concerning areas and facilities, program, publicity and public relations and other phases of departmental operations. 7. That the publicity and public relations program be expand- ed and various medias of communication be used to inform and educate the public. 8. That the Summer playground salaries be increased and an additional week be approved to extend the present eight week program to nine. PHILIP D. COSTELLO Director of Recreation REPORT OF THE WORKMEN'S COMPENSATION DEPARTMENT The total number of accidents to employees and reported by the various Town Departments amounted to 134 an increase of 35 reported in 1962. 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 1963 we were carrying 12 cases of which one we have had since 1953, two since 1958, one since 1960, two since 1962 and six since 1963. There is one case pending before the Industrial Accident Board of which we are not now making any payments. JOHN P.

KELLY Superintendent of Schools REPORT OF THE SUPERINTENDENT OF SCHOOLS To the chairman and members of Watertown School Commit- tee I have the honor to submit herewith my twenty-fifth annual report of the Schools of Watertown which is the eighty-third in a series of annual reports of the Superintendent of the Watertown Public Schools. BIBLE READING AND RECITATION OF LORD'S PRAYER IN THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS On June 19, 1963 a letter was received from the office of the Department of Education for the Commonwealth of Massachusetts stating that the United States Supreme Court had made a final determination in the two cases, namely, Murray VS. Curlett( Mary- land) and Abington Township School District VS. Schempp, which held that the recitation of the Lord's Prayer and the reading of the Bible for devotional and religious purposes in the public schools is unconstitutional. And further advised that since the decision of the United States Supreme Court is the law of the land, the Lord's Prayer may not be recited nor may there be a reading of the Bible for devotional or religious purposes in the public schools. RESOLUTION On July 23, 1963 your school Committee unanimously adopted the following resolution copies of which were sent to all the members of the Congress of the United States. 294 TOWN OF WATERTOWN WATERTOWN MASSACHUSETTS SCHOOL CONIVixi-t'r:r; Whereas the framers of the constitution of the United States of America were God Loving and God Fearing men who created the most nearly perfect instrument by which people may govern themselves; And Whereas our founding fathers in the Declaration of Independence by their references to "Nature's God," "Creator" and "Divine Providence" clearly indicated their belief that this nation's foundation and survival were dependent upon the will of a Supreme Being whose intercession could be obtained by prayer; And Whereas every Congress, by its legislative actions has asserted a belief in the presence and infuence of a Supreme Being; And Now Whereas the Supreme Court of the United States has decreed that prayer and/or the reading of sacred scripture may not be a part of a public school exercise, ceremony, activity or assembly; Therefore be it resolved that, we, the members of the Water. town Massachusetts School Committee in session assembled on on July 23, 1963, go on record as requesting the Congress of the United States of American to so amend the constitution of the United States to allow the reading of sacred scripture in public schools and to create for recitation in public Schools a fitting sprayer calling upon that assistance of God without offending or intruding upon the religious beliefs of any individuals. MEDITATI E SILENCE In reply to one of several questions from Owen B. Kiernan, Commissioner of Education for the Commonwealth of Massachu- setts Edward W. Brooke, Attorney General gave the following opinion. Question: "Is it legal for a teacher to announce at the begin- ning of school classes in the morning that there will be a moment of `meditative silence' or a moment of `reverent silence.' " Attorney General Brooke opinion: "It is perfectly clear that a moment of meditation amounts neither to a state endorsement of any form of religion or deity ANNUAL REPORTS — 1963 295 nor state prohibition of any matter of conscience. A principal function of secular education is to encourage students to reflect upon problems of serious moment. A pause during the school day for the purpose of encouraging serious thought is entirely consistent with the function of the state in education, and there- fore would permissible." Your School Committee unanimously approved the following regulation effective as of September 1, 1963. VOTED: "As each day begins the teacher will call the class to order and then allow a minute of `meditative' or `reverent' silence during which the student follows the interest of his own mind in regard to prayer, meditation or spiritual devotion." BUSINESS MACHINES The demand for keypunch operators in the Boston area has been rapidly increasing, and in the Business Education Depart- ment, we are anxious to serve the community in training students to fill the jobs that are available. Therefore, we have added to our office machines room the IBM Printing Card Punch Machine and are giving the business-course students an opportunity to learn about the operation of this machine. This opens a new field of employment, offering excellent salary and advancement opportunities. There are jobs in banks, department stores, government agencies, insurance companies, manufacturing concerns, and in many other businesses for young people with this type of training. The IBM Card Punch is an all-electric machine used for re- cording information on IBM cards. These cards are fed auto- matically into the machine. The operator, reading information, registers it on a keyboard and the machine records the informa- tion on to a card in the form of holes representing letters and numbers. These cards are later used on other machines which automatically perform such operations as sorting, calculating and printing of payrolls, invoices, checks, and many other documents. The keyboard is run by touch, and it takes time and practice to become an efficient operator. Students must 'be extremely ac- curate in order to become successful at this type of work. It order to give more students an opportunity to learn the touch system of fingering for the IBM machine, we have purchased five Selectric typewriters. These typewriters may be used as regular type- 296 TOWN OF WATERTOWN writers, but they have the 'keypunch figures on one side of the keyboard. This gives the students an opportunity to learn the keyboard touch system of fingering and to develop skill in this part of the operation. In the junior and senior years, students taking the Business Course are required to take Office Machines, and the operation of the IBM Printing Card Punch machine is part of the course. This year, too, we have added to our Machines Course two new voice-writing machines. These machines are used exten- sively by the businessman in recording his dictation. Students are taught to transcribe from these recordings. Three of our business teachers, Mr. George Yankowski, Miss Helen Lordan, and Miss Elizabeth Desmond, Business Education Department Head, have taken a training course offered to teachers by the IBM Corporation. The course included the concepts of data processing, familiarizing the teachers with this process as it is used in today's business world. MODERN MATHEMATICS During the school year 1962-63 courses in modern mathematics were introduced in our junior high schools following the adoption which had already begun in our Senior High School. To help interested parents understand these new methods in mathematics a course was given at the Evening High School. The classes were well attended and the course will be offered again next year. I have appointed a committee of teachers under the Chairman. ship of Mr. William Corbett, Principal of the Lowell School, to study, investigate and recommend on the advisability of introduc- ing the new mathematics in the Elementary Schools. The members of this Committee have already taken courses in the teaching of modern mathematics and each one has an ex- cellent background in the field of mathematics and science. The Committee: Mr. William Corbett, Chairman Miss Catherine Tobin, Grade VI, Hosmer School Miss Mary Keenan, Grade III, Hosmer School Mrs. Norma Fahey, Grade III, Lowell School Mrs. Marjorie Scully, Grade V, Lowell School Mrs. Esther R.

The following release from the Office of Scientific Personnel of the National Academy of Sciences-National Research Council is an indication of the soundness of our curricula, the quality of our students and the importance of the oustanding work being done by our Guidance Department. We are indeed pleased that so many of our Watertown resi- dents and High School graduates have continued their education and have been granted the Doctorate Degree in so many important areas.

The Office of Scientific Personnel of the National Academy of Sciences-National Research Council — has been keeping a file of the people receiving third-level research degrees (not MD, DDS, or DVM) from United States universities. They have sent lists of those receiving doctorates since 1957 to the high school from which they graduated. 2. The National research Council feels that the choice of an eventual field of specialization is, to a great extent, dependent upon an individual's high school experiences. These would include courses available, courses taken, and grades earned. Also influ- ential in many way are counselors and teachers, parents and fel- low-students, as well as factors undoubtedly obscure and fre- quently not apparent even to the students making the decisions. All of "these influences may profoundly affect both the proportion of students entering higher education and advanced training, and the directions of their later academic endeavors." 3. The Council has been interested in knowing more about the "high-producing sources of these doctorate-holders," and hence has sought "information with respect to the community in which the school is located, and about the school itself." 4. From these studies the relative rank of high schools pro- ducing doctorate recipients within each state and among the top one thousand in the United States has been computed, According to the findings, Watertown High School ranks 22 among Massa- chusetts High School and 363 among the High Schools of the United States. These rankings are within the top 10 percent for each category. IN MEMORIAM EDWIN H.

The follow-up survey was undertaken by means of a letter and one-page questionnaire mailed to all who graduated in June of 1962. Postcard reminders were also sent as well as telephone calls made to those not replying in a few weeks. The survey was started and completed approximately one year following gradua. tion. This lapse of time after graduation has the advantage of allowing for some crystallization of values in regard to future plans. 2. The percentage of graduates reporting and included in the tabulations was 96.3 per cent of those graduating. This is two per cent less than those last year, but still considered a very high percentage of returns for a study of this kind. 3. The percentage of graduates continuing post-secondary edu. cation is above 50 percent for the first time in the 24 years in ANNUAL REPORTS - 1963 309 which the surveys have been made. For the previous eight years the percentage has been above 40, and this year reached 50.3, 3.4 per cent above the previous year. 4. Those continuing post-secondary education include 82 per cent of College Preparatory graduates, nearly 29 per cent of Business and nearly 4 per cent of Industrial Arts curriculum graduates. 5. Of the 184 graduates continuing their education, 58.7 per cent are attending four-year degree granting coleges or univer- sities as follows: Libreral Arts 20.6 per cent, Teacher Training 15.3 per cent, Engineering 9.8 per cent, Business Administration 8.2 per cent, Music, Nursing and Pharmacy 1.1 per cent each,, and miscellaneous 1.5 per cent. 6. The remaining 41.3 per cent of those continuing their edu- cation were attending schools and colleges below the degree grant- ing level as follows: Business and Secretarial 14.7 per cent, Junior College 8.7 per cent, Technological 6.0 pr cent, Preparatory School 6.0 per cent, Nurses Training 4.3 per cent, and miscel- laneous 1.6 per cent. 7. Of those attending four-year degree granting colleges and universities 74 per cent are attending within the Boston area, an additional 13 per cent within Massachusetts but beyond the im- mediate Boston area, 3 per cent in another New England state, and 11 per cent outside of New England. 8. The Massachusetts Department of Education conducts peri- odic studies, usually at two year intervals, into the number and percentage of public school graduates continuing education beyond high school. A comparison of the Watertown graduates of the Class of '62 with the most recent State study, public school gradu- ates table for '60, shows a striking similarity of percentages.

The number regularly employed, including those in military service and girls married, is equal to a little less than one half of the graduates. Included among these are 77.7 percent from the Business curriculum graduates, 74.9 percent the Industrial Arts, 63.8 per cent General, and 16.7 per cent College Preparatory. 10. The Business and Industrial Arts curricula are geared toward vocational training and are generally terminal in na- ture. The General curriculum may be vocational or academic, or a combination of each, and the College Preparatory is largely academic. The percentages regularly employed noted in paragraph number 9 above and attending school or college in number 4 indicate that each curriculum is generally meeting the needs for which it was intended. Of the College Preparatory graduates regu. larly employed, many indicated that the employment was temporary, until sufficient money could be acquired for college. 11. The graduates regularly employed, excluding those in Military Service, were distributed as follows: 48 percent working in Watertown, 35 per cent in communities contiguous to Water- town, and 17 per cent in Boston. 12. The mean weekly salary reported was $65.77, $2.19 higher than reported the year before and $7.57 than reported five years ago. 5.8 per cent reported salaries under $50. per week, 22.8 per cent salaries between $50. and $59., 36 per cent between $60. and $69., 21.8 per cent between $70. and $79., and 13.6 per cent $80. and above. 13. The percentage of graduates reported as married within one year of high school graduation were all girls and represent the smallest percentage of married graduates in the past five years. e ANNUAL REPORTS — 1963 311 TABLE VI KINDS OF EMPLOYMENT ENGAGED IN BY THOSE REGULARLY EMPLOYED, ACCORDING TO HIGH SCHOOL CURRICULUM FOLLOWED AS OF APRIL, 1963 Number & Percentage According to High School Curriculum KINDS OF EMPLOYMENT Col.

The term drop-out refers to students who withdraw from school before completion of year and who do not attend else- where. 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 196Z-63 in the Watertown grades 9-12 is 1.9 per cent of the total membership of these grades. This percentage is .6 of one percent higher than for the previous year, due largely to the increase in grades 9 and 10. 3. The greatest attrition occured again in Grade 11, in which grade were 2 out of 5 of those who dropped out. Although this is the grade where the largest number of drop-outs generally occur, the percentage this year was lower than the previous year. 4. If the drop-out rate for '62263 should remain relatively constant for the next three years, it would indicate that Water- town was retaining in school to graduate slightly more than 9 out of 10 of the students entering in Grade 9. This is deduced by multiplying this year's drop-out percentage of 1.9 by 4, the number of years covered in Grades 9-12, producing an overall four year drop-out rate of 7.6 per cent and a retaining rate of 93.4 per cent. 5. The percentage of drop-outs for the past four year, including the '62263 figures, were 1.9, 1.3, 2.2, and 2.5 respectively, a total of 7.9 per cent. From this we can conclude that during the past 316 TOWN OF WATERTOWN four years Watertown has graduated approximately 93.1 per cent of the students entering Grade 9. It must be borne in mind that each year a number of students transfer to other schools and enter from other schools. The number involved each year approximately balance each other. 6. The annual percentage of Watertown drop-outs is well be- low the average for the State, an indication of the retaining power of the Watertown schools. ANNUAL REPORTS — 1963 317 REPORT OF THE BOARD OF SELECTMEN TO THE CITIZENS OF WATER.TOWN: The Annual Report of the Board of Selectmen for the year ending December 31, 1963, is submitted to the citizens of Water- town with pride and pleasure. In March of 1963, John A. Ryan was elected to the Board for a three year term. Pasquale Sclafani was re-elected Chairman, and John A. Ryan elected Clerk for the year 1963 — 1964. The Board appointed H. Edward Santarpio as Town Counsel and Philip F. Grogan as Assistant Town Counsel. Edward W. Hagar was appointed Administrative Assistant to the Board and began his duties September 16, 1963. Miss Rita M. Powers was appointed Confidential Secretary to the Board effective July 29, 1963 to replace Miss Patricia Gondon who resigned to get married. John J. Mantenuto's resignation as Confidential Clerk to the Board was regretfully accepted. He was efficient and faithful. The tax rate was stabilized for the first time in many years and efforts are being made to maintain this stabilization. The Town Report Committee appointed by the Moderator at the 1962 Annual Town Meeting has made several suggestions designed to reduce the size of the Annual Town Report and as a result a new format for departmental reporting is being developed. The first stage is accomplished this year by decreasing in the report the content of the material submitted to the Board. We commend all concerned for their efforts in this matter. Full reports are on file at the Town Clerk's Office. Introductory and ackowledgement statements have been eliminated, as has all personal matter. In the interest of brevity, clarity and cost reduc- tion reporting units concur that insofar as conditions admit con- sistency and uniformity of presentation should prevail. As pointed out in the the Building Inspector's report, the estimated cost of 1963 construction in Town, including new construction, extensions, and alterations was $3,632,050.00. This figure represents a substantial fifty-three percent increase over 1962's total of $2,365,390.00. 318 TOWN OF WATERTOWN Public Welfare Director Joseph A. Murray has completed twenty-five years in this department and has filed a rather com- prehensive progress report which may be of interest to many. His complete report is on file at the office of the Town Clerk. On December 31, 1963, Assistant Superintendent of Highways, E. Harold Johnston, retired. Better know as "Jazz," his retire- ment culminated a record of faithful service to the Town of ap- proximately forty-two years. The short period of three and one- half months that the Ad- ministrative Assistant has been working with us has shown a reduction in agenda items and in improved public relations be- tween industry and the Town. Increasing responsibility and authority in adminstrative and personnel areas should result in better service for the citizens of the Town. On March 5, 1963, former Town Meeting Member John J. York passed away at the age of forty-six. On November 21, 1963, Dr. Robert S. York, lifelong Water- town resident, active in town affairs, passed away at age sixty- six. Two of the great leaders of our time also departed this life in 1963: President John F. Kennedy was assassinated by a sniper's bullet on November 22nd at the age of forty-six, and Pope John XXIII passed away on June 3rd at age eighty-two. We regret the passing of these persons. After several conferences with our Highway and Engineer- ing Departments, the Board decided to have our own employees design and install the drainage system at Gore Place. In making this decision, the Board took into consideration our employee capabilities and our equipment inventory. We are proud to state that this decision resulted in significant savings and gave us added confidence in our Highway and Engineering personnel. We are proud of them and the result thus far. Additional savings are ex- pected when the work is completed in 1964. The Board of Selectmen held regular meetings every Monday beginning at 3:00 P.M., with many special meetings in between as business warranted. ANNUAL REPORTS — 1963 319 As is the case in all town departments, the Board is busier each year than the year preceding. However, it has already been demonstrated that the employment of a full-time administrative assistant allows the Board more time to deliberate on important matters. It has been said many times but cannot be stressed too strong- ly that the Town is fortunate to have many able public- spirited citizens who serve so well on the various appointed committees for no remuneration. The Board is proud to state that due in great measure to the efforts of such civic minded citizens the Town tries to provide maximum service at minimum cost. The Board is very appreciative of these persons and takes pride in our combined aims toward progress in this direction. Our continued efforts will be directed toward a sound and reasonable financial policy based on community resources. We thank you all for your cooperation in helping to make Watertown an increasingly enjoyable place in which to live. PASQUALE SCLAFANI JOHN A. RYAN PHILIP PANE Selectmen of Watertown 320 TOWN OF WATERTOWN REPORT OF THE PERSONNEL BOARD The Personnel Board, created and existing under the pro- visions of chapter 10, section 15 of the By-Laws of the Town of Watertown, and supplementary provision thereto, does hereby sub- mit its report for the year 1963. Following the 1963 Annual Town Meeting, the Moderator, in accordance with the aforementioned provisions of the By-Laws, appointed the following to be members of the Board: MEMBER OF THE BOARD OF SELECTMEN Philip Pane, 37 Orchard Street MEMBER OF THE FINANCE COMMITTEE John Carroll, 30 Brandley Road EMPLOYEE OF THE TOWN OF WATERTOWN Lawrence Magnarelli, 71 Prentiss Street FOUL; RESIDENTS OF THE TOWN Henry Hansen, Jr., 134 Standish Road James Malvey, 33 Bradley Road Edward Reardon, 154 Worcester Street James Stanton, 106 Channing Road ORGANIZATION The first meeting of the Board was held on June 6, 1963, at the Town Hall. The Board organized by electing Selectman Philip Pane as Chairman and Edward Reardon as Secretary. Richard E. Mastrangelo was appointed to serve as Clerk with compensation to be paid from the Personnel Board Contingent Account. COMPREHENSIVE SURVEY On June 27, 1963 the Board met with representatives of several firms who had submitted bids for a professional wage and salary survey as authorized by the 1963 Annual Town Meeting. Follow- ing deliberaton, the Board voted to accept the proposal and con- tract of Charles M. Evans and Associates of Boston. The project began during the summer and the consultants began to file their findings with the Board in September. ANNUAL REPORTS — 1963 321 The Board devoted the months of September through December to the hearing of employee requests for changes on Chapter 10 and to meetings to act on progress reports on our consultants' study of duties of positions which are classified in Chapter 10 as well as the compensation of employees occupying these positions. Employee requests for changes, which under Section 15 of Chapter 10 must be heard by the Board if they are to take the form of Town Meeting articles, were heard in October. Two tentative revisions of the salary and wage schedules in Chapter 10 were prepared by the consultants in November to assist the Board in its determination of the pay policy which it would recommend for 1964. The first of these was predicated on the probable increase in significant price indices by March 1, 1964, in comparison with early 1963. The second encompassed the pattern of employee requests which the Board heard in October. It became apparent that to grant the increases which would result from the latter schedule would place too great an impact on the 1964 tax levy. On the other hand, despite the fact that com- parative information indicates that Watertown's present salary and wage rates are very competitive with other communities in the Boston Metropolitan Area and with private employment, the Board agreed that 1964 increases should be greater than the in- crease in living costs alone in order to maintain our competitive position. The consultants were instructed, therefore, to prepare a schedule which would increase personal services in 1964 not over an amount predetermined by the Board. The resulting schedules in general grant employees a 4010 increase over the median rate for their classifications computed from 1963 schedules for communities considered comparable to Watertown with respect to significant fiscal indices. The Board spent a month in weekly meetings with the consult- ants reviewing their findings and recommendations. A few ad- justments were made agreed upon by both the board and the consultants. Re-hearings were then held early in January. The schedules which the Board supports are those which appear in the proposed revision of Chapter 10. The preparation of a salary and wage plan which is equit- able is difficult under any circumstances. The Board feels that 322 TOWN OF WATERTOW`' its recommendations treat all groups of town employees fairly by applying the same standards and criteria in arriving at the rates proposed. The equity which we feel that we have built into the plan can be destroyed by preferred treatment to any one group of employees. RECOMMENDATIONS The recommendations of the Personnel Board have been drafted in form of articles for the 1964 Annual Town Meeting Warrant, and appear in that Warrant as Article 8. The chairman wishes to thank the members of the Personnel Board for their faithful attendance and the earnest discharge of their duties. As has been stated previously in reports of the Per- sonnel Board, the task of the Board is a most difficult one. The members of the Board have considered the problems of effective and equitable administration of the salary and wage by-law. The Board has considered at great length the recommenda• tions of the professional consultant. They have considered these recommendations carefully,and they commend it to the citizens of the Town for their approval. PHILIP PANE Chairman VOTED: That the Report of the Chairman be adopted and is the Report of the Personnel Board.

The various funds in the hands of the Town Treasurer, in- cluding 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 Treasurer and Collector of Taxes. During the year I have made* periodic examinations of the Collector's outstanding accounts and I have found them in agree. ment with the controls in my office. The balance in the Excess and Deficiency account at the close of business for the year 1963 is in the amount of $409,427.63. It is to be noted that this figure at the close of business last year was in the amount of $510,671.17. The outstanding debt of the Town of Watertown as of December 31, 1963 is in the amount of $3,095,000.00. Town Meeting has author- ized an additional of $370,000.00 for Sewer and Drainage.
