cide of 1915 and, in remembering signify their readiness to raise
a powerful voice against those forces which would unleash the
terrible weapon of genocide and

Building Committee, of which he was Chairman at the time of the
renovation and addition to the building.

HOSMER SC.'HOOL BUILDING COMMITTEE REPORT
Distributed at Town Meeting, March 22, 1965
To The Town Meeting Members of Watertown:
The following report is released in order that our Watertown
citizens might have an awareness to the findings of the Hosmer
Building Committee.
After a full year of study, with adequate funds to secure pro-
fessional advice, the Committee has arrived at a decision for pres-
entation to the Annual Town Meeting.
The Hosmer School was built in three stages with the most re-
cent addition in nineteen hundred and twenty eight. All three parts
are reasonably sound structually. In a total renovation program,
almost all mechanical equipment such as heating, lighting, ventila-
tion, plumbing, and wiring would have to be replaced. Large sums
of money would be spent for roofing, flooring, windows, and frames,
new exits, doors, pointing, and other pertinent work. As a teaching
facility the building does not meet minimum requirements. It is
the only public building in Watertown which is operating without a
certificate from the Massachusetts department of Public Safety.
Only by the expenditure of large sums of money with an antici-
pated life of twenty years could the Hosmer Building qualify for a
certificate. It is important to note that the State makes no funds
available for renovation but grants to the Town of Watertown a
forty per-cent reimbursement on a new school construction.
After a careful examination of the reports of engineers, the
architect and an economic feasibility study, the Committee voted
unanimously to seek a complete new building. This decision has
the approval of the School Committee, the School Administration.
as well as the recommendation and tentative approval (pending
final plans) of the Massachusetts School Building Assistance Com-
mission. it is most evident that with increasing costs of labor and
50 TOWN OF WATERTOWN
material, delay will only add to the total costs. Every avenue of
State and Federal aid has been investigated and will be used to
advantage.
Three basic proposals were studied and evaluated. They were,
Plan A, total renovation; Plan 8, renovate 1928 wing and replace
other two sections; Plan C, a complete new building.
Estimated Cost to Watertown
Plan A — Total Renovation $ 821,172
(no reimbursement)
Plan B — Addition and renovation $1,379,844
40% (State Aid) $928,000 371,280 $1,008,564
Plan C — New Building $1,608,456
Full 40% of State Aid of $1,325,000 530,000 $1,078,456
Difference in Plan B and Plan C in cost to the Town of $69,892.
(Ten new rooms with pertinent facilities for this amount).
During the construction period approximately three hundred
fifty pupils would be housed in the 1928 wing. The other pupils
would either walk to the Coolidge School, or if the distance is too
great would be transported to other buildings. On completion of
the new section, the 1928 wing would be demolished with a con-
tinuance of pupil transportation. No platoon sessions are planned
and pupils will follow the regular time schedule. Although this
schedule will necessitate some inconveniences we believe that it is
the best solution to our problem.
We seek total support of this project for it is the concern of
all the children and parents of Watertown and not merely those
residing in the Hosmer district.

REPORT OF THE FINartCE COMMITTEE
Your Finance Committees organized directly after the �:oderator appointed
new members, engaged in continous studies, hearings. and r.eet`_ngs, numerous
enough to help formulate recorrmendntions listed herein. Although meetings
were open to the public, attendance was nil. 'rowe-.er, readers of local
newspapers were kept informed thru news releases.
T'ne Finance Committee trusted the Personnel Board in d ing a more care-
ful analysis of job classification and aages, but still perm:tte,i Town Emp-
loyees the privilege of a hearing. With this spirit the F.ner.ue Committee,
Board of Selectmen, and the Personnel Board met and declared unanimity in
the recommendations or the Personnel Board.
clews throughout the ;odr reported extensive expenditures, the depletion
of the Reserve Fund, and Deficit Spending. One night think this due to poor
budgeting or an inadequate Reserve Fund. However, the pressing needs if the
Police Department, and injuries and illnesses among Town Employees, which
pressured the Workmen's Compensation Budget out of proportion, accounted for
some of the unprecedented expenditures. Despite all efforts at control,
needs continue to increase. Each Department, nat:rally enough, visualizes
its position as of outmost and singular importance, while each employee
strives for a higher income. These two factors, combined with the proposa_s
of Boards, Committees, and other protagonists of affl•ient living, point in
one direction - up! Moreto, the October 1951i issue .sf "Taxtalk" magnified the
problem when it stated, "rio reversal of the sharply rising trend in sa:.ariea
is in immediate prospect so long as municipal salaries continue to lag behind
state salaries for comparable positions and so long as the :.egtslature per-
sists in calling the tune in local polio; ror teachers, firefighters, police-
men and welfare workers."
Who would question the need of a spanking new school, or modern admin-
istration building, a recreation center, a private club on public grounds,
a chrome plated snow rem.)ver, a tot-lot at every corner, longevity, pay for
part-time workers, and the like. Consider, too, the number of abatements,
plus MBTA, County, .snd State deficits, and you can understand the difficult:-
the Finance Committee faces each year.
However, one might wonder if there is a proper balance between designed
need and real need - and, capability to pay. Is there awareness in terms of
real dollar expenditures that we might have the public services we need and
still encourage people to own their own homes, or tenants to rent at reason-
able rates? In short, are we budgeting and spending without thinking and
checking - or needing?
Some look to the new structure of Town Government to help, but it is
hardly likely that part-time e:te:utive and legislative bodies, an-1 a Finance
Committee without firm rules of procedure, especially in the area of Invest-
igation will h-lp. Some feel a re-evaluation at 100% of full and fair value
may help, btu. this too is unlikely. The lest hope, for this year at least,
rests with a discerning Town Meeting.
This year the Finance Committee was faced with requests fortll,207.254.25
and deliberations reduced this figure by $534,849.22. If Town
Meeting members inspect more closely and demand more sxplicitly, they may
help to further reduce the budget, and still retain efficient and effective
Town Services. Your Chairman urger you question every official concerned
with the Budget to justify every request for an appropriation. If answers
are not clear, then the vote should be against requests as well as recom-
mendations. Above all, Town Meeting Members must be vigilent and speak out
against requests for seemingly small sums, or seemingly reasonable requests,
that could just as well be done without. Our concern must not be with a
single person or issue, nor comparative figures, but to total needs of the
Town balanced by the ability of the Town to raise and expend money wisely.
The estimated tax.rate figures do not appear, but will be reported
when the Department of Corporations and Taxation releases the Cherry Sheet.
Please note :hat the Finance Committee report includes reports and Finance
Committee recommendations on articles appearing in the .;arrant involving
money.
In closing, I wish to thank the members of the Finance Committee for
voluntarily offering their time and effort in an arduous, and sometimes
thankless, task.

Chairman

REPORTS OF COMMITTEES SUBMITTED IN ACCORDANCE WITH NEW
AMENDMENT TO BY-LAW, CHAPTER 2. SECTION 16
PERSONNEL BOARD REP,)HT
The Personnel Board, created and existing under tie provisions of
Chapter 10, Section 15 of the By-Laws of the Town of Watertown and sup-
plementery ppro via ions thereto, pursuant to the outhoritj r.•�ntained in
Sections 1Of3A and 108C of Chapter 41 of the General Laws, contracted
with the personnel consulting firm of Charles Evans Associates to make
a complete survey of position classifications and compensations, to
develop an over-all salary and wage structure bast3d on fa^.tually-deter-
mined relative val,%es of all positions and to submit a report to us
containing findings and recommendations together with necessary schedules
and supplements.
After considerable diacis:iion and delioeration, the report as finally
presented to the Town reflected an increase of 4.1% over the 1964 payroll
cost based on 1963 schedules, for a total estimated additional cost of
$103,714.00.
The entire package was placed in the w9rrants for 1964 Annual Town
Hesting and was adopted(under Article #8) as amended, as the New Chapter 10
of the Town By-Laws, effective January 1, 1964. In substance, the Plan
enjoyed an excellent reception at the March Town Mon::ing.
The personnel Board, reorganized following the March Town Meeting,
consists of:

The Board met cons:'_,intiously during the year and has made recommend-
ations for adjustments of certain Inequities found in Chapter 10 which
appear in the darrent for l91' Town Meeting action.
In addition to these position adjustments, the Board recommends a
maximum of $6,300.00 for the Police and Fire Groups and a 2J% increase
(rounded out to the nearest $5.00 and nearest 1�) for all increment
atages in these groups and all departmenhs (under Chapter 10) other than
the Welfare Department, which operates under a Mas•:ac`iusetts Welfare
Compensation Plan, in conjunction with r^ecioral Funds, a revision of which
became effective September 28, 1964•
ANNUAL REPORTS — 1965 151
The Board has discussed at length with the professional consultant as
to the revisions and adjistments it recommends and finds that the consult-
ant is in accord with these recommendations. Inasmuch as the few position
ad,ustments do not alter the basic structure of the plan, the Board strongly
recommends adoption of these articles and the upward adjustment in all salary
and :rage scales.
We regret the loss to the Board by resignationeof James A. Yalvey and

ADMINISTRATION BUILDING SURVEY OONS::TTEE
During 1964, the Committee,consisting of your Chairman,James
George B. Wellman, Pauline C.Everett, John F. Corbett and :.awrence
(who replaced John J. Carver) completed its meetings with Architect ?E:::
Feloney and approved his final plans for renovations and the construction of
a third story on the Administration Building. Payment for the Architect's
services, in the amount of $13,850.00, was made through an interest-^^ee
advance of funds obtained from the Community Facilities Division of .he Fed-
eral Housing and Home Finance Agency.
An article seeking the appropriation of funds to carry forward r!ie pro-
ject was placed in the Town Meeting Warrant. The Finance Comr.i-tee re-
_ANNUAL REPORTS — 1965 153
commended "No Appropriation", and this recommendation was followed by the
Town Meeting. The Committee was continued in existence, and will follow a
similar course of action for the 1965 Town Meeting. It is hoped that the
wisdom of proceeding forth-with to implement the efforts of the Committee
during a year when the Town :s not faced with other costly building projects
will be recognized.
James E. Carty, Chairman
COMMITTEE ON TOWN ORGANIZATION AND STRUCTURE
The committee on Town Organization and structure has :a!ez as its main
item for study during the year 1964 the question of ex-offic+.o members in
the Town Meeting.
The revised Town Meeting act (Chapter 248 of the Acts of 1963, which
was accepted an the ballot at t:ie ann-ial town meeting held March 2, 1964)
does not designate town meeting members at largo, but states that such
::embers may be designated in the by-laws of the town.
Information was obtained as to ex-officio members in the towns of
Arlington, Belmont, Wellesley, Brookline, Framingham, Needham and 'leymouth.
With the exception of Weymouth, which has a Town Meeting Act almost iderit:oal
with Watertown's previous act, each of the towns studied has very few Town
Meeting members at large.
This committee feels that because of the reduction in the number of
town meeting members in the revised act, ex-officio members should be kept
to a minimum so they would not be out of proportion to the elected members.
Therefore, it is recommending that an article be inserted in the
;Tarrant designating the following as town meeting members at large:
"Pursuant to authority contained in Section 3, of Chapter
248 of the Acts of 1963, the following officers are designated
as town meeting members at large, namely:-
(1) the Moderator, who shall vote only in case of a tie vote
(2) the Board of Selectmen, (3) the Chairman of the Finance
Committee, or in his absence the Vice-Chairman of the
Finance Committee."
The Committee on Government has no knowleige whether or not an
Article has been filed for the 1965 Annual Town Meeting Warrant dealing
with ex-officio membership. The foregoing is merely the recommendation
of the Committee.

SEWER AND DRAINAGE COMMITTEE
Excellent progress has been made by the Sewer and Drainage Committee in
1964 as in previous years. Under contract, the engineering firm of Fay,
Spofford, and Thorndike prepared two master plans of the town, one for storm
drainage and the other for sanitary sewers, It was determined that the
drainage system was the most critical problem and therefore to be tackled
first.
All work was done via these contracts with the design, inspection and
supervision being done by our consultants and with our town Engineering
154 TOWN OF WATERTOWN
Department supplying the preliminary location plans and field englneering
during construction.
When work was begun in the Bemis area, a new policy was introduced
with the town Engineering Department taking over the daties of inspection
and supervision. At a later stage, construction contracts were dispensed
with and our own town Highway Department took over complete construction,
with the Engineering Department continuing the operations of design,
inspection and supervision. The cooperation and efforts of these two town
departments resulted in a savings of about one half the estimated $160,000
cost of this protect if done under contract.
The committee feels that with the completion of the above work which
was completed in 1964 that with the exception of the East End System the
mayor flooding areas ha•:e been taken care of and :hat the monies expended
have produced the desired results.
During 1964 the committee has had plans drawn to continue the East
End System from its present terminus on Xelendy Avenue, along said Melendy
Avenue to Nichols Avenue, thence along \ichols Avenue to Boylston Street
where the pipe lines of necessity out through private properties to reach
School Street; thence up School Street to a point northeast of Porter Street,
there will also be a branch put in Dartmouth Street. The Preliminary plans
for this protect were prepared by Town Engineer with design by Fay,Spofford
and Thorndike. This construction will be done by contract as it is the
feeling of the Committee that the town forces do not have the equipment
necessary, there being so many problems involved, site, as moving utilities
and bracing of buildings.
This Committee had hoped that construction on this phase would begin
in the Fall of 1964; however, because the property owners, through whose
property this e::tension must pass did not sign the necessary forms, we were
unable to proceed.
An Article has been. inserted in the March Town Meeting ',arrant to take
these easements by eminent domain which will ensure immediate construction
following affirmative Town Meeting action.
'he publication for bidding on the award of this contract has been
prepared by Fay, Spofford and Thorndike, Inc. This firm also contracted to
assist us to secure bids for construction, compile and ana L'ze bids, make
recommendations for award of contract and aid in executing contract at a
minimum cost to this Committee.
This Committee will not need addltional funds this year. The balance
in our Sewer-Drainage Committee Account as of December 31, 1964, was $251,
496.85. The balance in our Committee Account was $3,349.55 These amounts
are more than adequate to carry out the 1965 program.
The Chairman of this Committee wishes to thank its members for their
dedication and cooperation during the past year.

REPORT OF THE TREE WARDEN
The Honorable Board of Selectmen
Administration Building
Watertown, Massachusetts
Gentlemen:
I herewith submit the Annual Report of the Tree Warden for
the year ending December 31, 1965.
Approximately one hundred and forty-eight new trees were
planted this spring in various sections of the Town — a number of
these were replacements. All these trees were planted in fresh loam.
fertilized and secured to a stake to hold them firm until the roots
could get a good start. Most of these trees leaved out and were
growing by the end of the summer.
We have sprayed the trees on private property for Earwigs,
Poison Ivy, Japanese Beetles, General Spraying, Dormant and Birch
Leaf Miner whenever requested to do so by owners.
Ninety decayed and injured trees were removed during the
year — twelve of these had the Dutch Elm disease.
Your Tree Warden is a Legislative Officer of the Massachusetts
Tree Wardens' & Foresters' Association and is Past President of the
Middlesex County Tree Wardens' and Moth Superintendents' Asso-
ciation and has obtained valuable information in the care of your
trees at the various meetings and conferences.
I wish to express my appreciation to the Honorable Board of
Selectmen for their co-operation during the year.
Acknowledgments are made to the various Town Departments
— Wire, Highway, Park, Water, Cemetery and School Departments
for assisting the Tree Department this past year.
My appreciation also to the Metropolitan Transit Authority,
Boston Edison Company and the New England Telephone and Tele-
graph Company for their help in topping trees in this town
thereby, saving the Town of Watertown hundreds of dollars.
To members of my own Department, I take this opportunity
to publicly commend you for all your loyal and faithful service.
My heartiest thanks to all who in any way assisted me during the
past year.
Respectfully yours,
THOMAS P. MORLEY
Tree Warden
168 TOWN OF WATERTOWN
REPORT OF THE BOARD OF ASSESSORS
We respectfully submit the annual report fo;, the Board of
Assessors for the year 1965.
The year 1965 saw an increase in total valuation including Real
and Personal Property in the amount of $1,890,020.00, as a result of
new buildings and alteration work.
Statutory exemptions over which we have no control and in
the case of elderly property owners granted an exemption under
Clause 41 continue to be a factor in our tax rate. The Town re-
ceives no state reimbursement to cover these exemptions.
The release of fifty-five acres of land and buildings by the Fed-
eral Government at the Watertown Arsenal should help us greatly
in the next few years.
To the very efficient members of our staff, to the Engineering
Department and the Collector's Department and all other depart-
ments who assist us in the performance of our responsibilities, we
would extend our sincerest appreciation.
Respectfully submitted,
RAYMOND J. MASSA, Chairman

REPORT OF THE PURCHASING AGENT
This being my twentieth year serving as Purchasing Agent, it
seems fitting to recollect a few facts relative to the past perform-
ance of the Purchasing Department since its inception in June, 1945.
In March, 1946, the By-Laws governing the Purchasing Depart-
ment were adopted by the Town. These paved the way for a more
efficient operation and more substantial financial savings in pur-
chasing through group buying and combined contract purchasing.
In May, 1949, according to a ruling by the Supreme Court of
Massachusetts, purchasing for the School Department was incorp-
orated with the functions of this department.
A number of years ago a Revolving Fund was established which
provides purchasing materials commonly used by all departments.
These are retained at the Purchasing Storeroom and have sub-
stantially eliminated duplicate ordering. It is also used for the pur-
chase of useable surplus stocks which also add up to substantial
savings on miscellaneous clerical items. The Revolving Fund has
also been used to purchase items prior to and in anticipation of
price increases, thereby realizing additional savings.
A total of 6,379 orders were issued this year, of which 2,162
applied to the School Department.
Received this year were 298 sealed bids covering 1,475 items
purchased.
The department is deeply grateful to the Honorable Board of
Selectmen and all department heads for their cooperation, not only
during the past year but over all the years that the department
has been functioning.
Respectfully submitted,
WILLIAM F. OATES
Purchasing Agent

REPORT OF THE WIRE DEPARTMENT
The Honorable Board of Selectmen
Administration Building
Watertown, Massachusetts
Gentlemen:
The annual report of the Wire Department for the year ending
December 31, 1965 is submitted herewith:
INSPECTIONS
Seven hundred and three permits for wiring and fixture install-
ations and eight annual permits for plant operations were issued
during the year. Inspections and re-inspections occasioned by the
issuance of these permits plus inspections of buildings and business
properties to be re-occupied resulted in approximately twenty-eight
hundred individual calls. Receipts for permits in the amount of
$391.50 has been paid to the Town Treasurer.
MAINTENANCE
The regular recurrent maintenance work of repairing, testing,
oiling and cleaning of our Fire Alarm, Police and Traffic light
equipment was performed. Also repairs on all Town owned elec-
trical 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, Rec-
reation Lighting, etc.
DAMAGE TO TOWN PROPERTY
Motor vehicle accidents were responsible for damage to the
extent of $415.00 — this includes labor and materials to Town
owned traffic lights and 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.
ANNUAL REPORTS — 1965 175
FIRE ALARM HEADQUARTERS
This Division is on a 24 hour a day basis and handled one hun-
dred ninety-three alarms of fire from boxes pulled on the street;
one hundred and forty-three alarms of fire received by telephone:
two thousand eight hundred and sixty alarms received over our
Mutual Aid circuits; seventeen alarms of fire received over A.D.T.
circuits. The following tests were made by operators; Mutual Aid
(4330), Auxiliary Generator (104), daily circuit test (5175. The
operators also transmit "No School" signals; admit officials into the
Administration Building after hours and contact Wire Department
personnel after hours for emergency work on Fire Alarm, Police
and Traffic light breakdowns.
One operator is on duty during an eight hour shift and the fire
alarm headquarters is an isolated room in the basement of the Ad-
ministration Building, which is vacated at night, on holidays and
over the weekends — leaving this operator helpless if stricken by a
sudden attack or seizure — this situation prompted the recent sur-
vey by the National Board of Fire Underwriters to recommend a
two man shift and the shifting of the P.B.X. telephone board and
the two-way radio operator from Fire Headquarters to Fire Alarm
Headquarters and putting the personnel under the supervision of the
Fire Department, which I strongly recommend for the safety of the
public and the safety of the operators.
I wish to express my appreciation to the Honorable Board of
Selectmen for their co-operation during the year.
Acknowledgements are made to the various Town Departments,
the Boston Edison Company and the New England Telephone and
Telegraph Company for the courtesies and co-operation extended
to me during the year.
Respectfully submitted,
AMBROSE P. VAHEY

REPORT OF THE INSPECTOR OF ANIMALS
Board of Selectmen:
1. A total of 153 animals in Watertown were examined and
quarantined for biting persons in 1965.
2. The head of one animal was sent to the Wasserman Lab-
oratory in Jamaica Plain for examination of the brain for evidence
of rabies. It was negative.
3. There were no cases of rabies in Watertown this past year.
This is no reason for complacency however, since during the year
just ended there has been a steady advance on the borders of Mass-
achusetts of cases of rabies in domestic and wild animals. In this
connection it might be well to give as much publicity as possible
to the preventive inoculation program.
4. I want to take the pleasure of extending my appreciation
to Dr. Murray and his staff in the Board of Health and to the
Police Department for 'their excellent help and cooperation.
Respectfully submitted,
JOHN J. MURPHY, JR., D.V.M.

ANNUAL REPORTS - 1965 171
REPORT OF THE VETERANS' SERVICES
The Honorable Board of Selectmen
Administration Building
Watertown, Massachusetts 02172
Gentlemen:
Expenditures for Veterans' Benefits in 1965 were substantially
higher than the previous year, due principally to the tremendously
increased cost of medical care, and the advancing average age of
our veteran population and their dependent families. The per diem
rate for some hospitals now exceeds $50.00 per day, so that a single
case of a month's duration can cost in excess of $1.500.00, a sum
which can provide cash benefits for another eligible family for half
a year. All our neighboring communities experienced the same
problems, and had to request transfers of funds to finish the year.
Significant developments in the field of Veterans' Benefits
scheduled for 1966 are the elimination of the concept of "settle-
ments" which becomes effective March 10th, and the commence-
ment of Medicare on July 1st. The former will mean that any
veterans or eligible dependents residing in the community who meet
the qualifications of need shall receive assistance from this town
rather than having to be aided by the community in which he or
she last lived for five consecutive years. The impact of this far-
reaching change in administration is difficult to estimate, but it
would seem that Watertown, as a relatively built-up suburb, should
not be hit hard with new cases, since the ones residing elsewhere
but presently having a settlement here should more than balance the
new cases acquired. Medicare, with its time limitations on benefits.
will provide only a temporary interruption in the local cost of care
for permanent nursing home cases and the like, so that a year's
experience will be required before its impact on our expenditures
will be known.
It is startling to think that public assistance costs can keep
rising in the face of the country's highest employment level in his-
tory, but obviously old age and illness are little affected by such
economic concepts as a rise in the "gross national product, etc."
Respectfully submitted.

Fire Prevention
in 1965, the Fire Marshall Plan was continued in all schools at
the appropriate grade level. Thousands of posters and pamphlets
were distributed in conjunction with speaking programs at both the
public and private schools. Fire Prevention films were shown and
lectures given to many social and industrial organizations. In-
Service inspections of all dwellings, mercantiles and small businesses
were conducted in a large area of the town. Their purpose is to re-
duce or eliminate fire hazards and to enforce rules and regulations
relative to the storage and handling of inflammable fluids, solids
and gases.
The exceptionally low fire loss of $85,000.00 in the year of 1965
surely must reflect the effectiveness and success of our fire pre-
vention activities.
ANNUAL REPORTS — 1965 189
Training
Eight members of the department attended a training program
at Framingham, Massachusetts during the year of 1965 as follows:
Two (2) Deputy Chiefs — Supervision, discipline, target haz-
ards, fire fighting tactics and strategy including pre-fire
planning.
Two (2) Lieutenants — Fire ground operations, water supplies,
company operations, fire causes and arson.
Two (2) Senior 'Men — Methods and procedures, hydraulics,
pumper operations, fire prevention activities.
Two (2) New Men — Initial training of recruits; gas masks
and other protective equipment, hose and ladder evolutions,
salvage work and other basic training.
The Captain in charge of the Fire Prevention Division attended
a symposium at Chicopee, Massachusetts which included; inspection
bureau programs, company member activities, incendiary fires.
arson suspects, securing evidence, laws and regulations effecting
fire department operations.
Eighty-five (85) Members of the Watertown Fire Department
have completed the Radiological Monitoring Course conducted by
the Massachusetts Civil Defense Agency. This was necessary due
to the greatly increased use of radioactive materials at the United
States Arsenal, many biological, chemical and physical laboratories
as well as many industrial processes.
Public Fire Protection
The United States Arsenal Fire Department was disbanded
during the spring of 1965. The Fire Department consisted of a fire
station, fully equipped, a first line piece of fire apparatus (a 750
gallon triple combination pumper) and a staff of fourteen (14)
employees, one (1) -Chief, one (1) Assistant Chief, three (3) Cap-
tains, and nine (9) Fire Fighters. This provided a fire fighting
force of not less than (1) officer and three (3) fire fighters on
duty at all times. The loss of this fire protection vitally effects
the safety of the lives and property of the citizens of the Torn of
Watertown. It is obvious (and required by law) that the burden
of fire fighting in the United States Arsenal, which represents nearly
one sixth (1/6) of the Town, now lies entirely upon the Watertown
Fire Department and consequently the Town of Watertown.
190 TOWN OF WATERTOWN
During the last thirty-five (35) years the fire protection pro-
vided for the Town has steadily decreased to a serious point:
1929 1964
Population 31,000 Population 40,000
Valuation $51,000,000 Valuation $86,000,000
Fire Alarms 338 Fire Alarms 1,390
Fire Losses $42,221.27 Fire Losses $224,874.70
Number of Fire Fighters Number of Fire Fighters
on Duty 23 on Duty 28
In addition, in 1929, all fire fighters were required to have a
fire alarm tapper in their homes. Consequently, all fire alarms rang
in the fire fighters' homes as well as in the fire stations. The fire
fighters were required to respond at once to all alarms. (The re-
sponse was usually about 90%). This meant that in 1929, in addi-
tion to the twenty-three (23) men on duty, twenty (20) off duty
men also responded, which provided a working force of forty-three
(43) .fire fighters.
While it is appreciated that it is physically impossible to pro-
vide an absolute degree of fire protection, it must be realized that
when a city or town establishes a fire department there is an im-
plied obligation to provide a reasonable level of fire protection.
Its people have a right to expect the fire department to be properly
equipped and staffed to control such fire emergencies as may arise,
including simultaneous serious fires.
Upon this reasontble level of fire protection the fire chief must
make his recommendations and upon this consideration he must
draw the line, below which, reasonable fire protection is not pro-
vided.
The level of fire protection that I recommend is as follows:
Number of pumper companies equals .85 plus .12P (where P equals
population in thousands) or not less than five (5) pumper com-
panies.
Number of ladder companies equals 1 plus .03P (where P equals
population in thousands) or not less than two (2) ladder com-
panies.
Number of fire fighters equals four (4) men and an officer on all
companies in the high value district and three (3) men and
an officer on all companies in other districts.
An Officer to be in charge of each fire company at all times.
ANNUAL REPORTS — 1965 191
Therefore:
I recommend that one (1) Captain, three (3) Lieutenants and
ten (10) Fire Fighters be added to the ranks of the Watertown
Fire Department and that the Arsenal Fire Station and Pumper
Company be equipped and manned as soon as possible.
I recommend that in the near future sufficient men and offi-
cers be appointed to provide four (4) men and one (1) officer on
the companies at Fire Headquarters and three (3) men and one (1)
officer on all other companies.
The Fire Chief can only recommend. He cannot appoint, pro-
mote or appropriate money. Other services provided by the Town
are on a high plane, but the fire protection provided is seriously
low. I urge that all officials entrusted with the powers to appoint,
promote and appropriate money, as well as those who recommend
the appropriate action to such officials, consider seriously their ob-
ligation in providing a reasonable level of fire protection which our
citizens have every right to expect.
I wish to make it clear that although the quantity of fire pro-
tection is poor, the quality of its equipment and personnel is of the
the highest calibre and provides an excellent nucleus for expansion.
The citizens of the Town may rest assured that their welfare and
protection is entrusted to the hands of a dedicated, loyal and cour-
ageous group of men upon whom they can depend for maximum
effort in the protection of their lives and property.

REPORT OF THE BOARD OF HEALTH
Regular monthly meetings were held in compliance with the
By-Laws and special meetings were held when particular issues
deserved our consideration.
The Health Department functioned effectively in regard to its
routine programs and, in addition, activated an on-going service
program of Vision Screening Clinics for preschool and kindergarten
children. Diphtheria, Whooping Cough, Tetanus Clinics were held
in the schools and indicated immunizations, depending upon the
child's age, were given to grades 1, 6 and 11. In addition, an an-
nual Tetanus-Diphtheria immunization clinic was offered for adults
and at the same clinic Diphtheria-Tetanus and Whooping Cough
immunizations were offered for preschool children. These Diph-
theria-Tetanus and Whooping Couph immunization clinics represent
a revised program, activated this year and to be conducted an-
nually following the guidelines of the United States Public Health
Service funded Massachusetts Vaccination Assistance Program.
The department is also participating in regional Alcoholism
Clinics held at the Cambridge-Mount Auburn and Cambridge-City
Hospitals. These alcoholism Clinics are funded by the Massachu-
setts Department of Public Health with the local communities pro-
viding administrative and field functions.
The Board %vishes to join the Health Director in extending
thanks and apprt,ciation to the Health Department personnel under
its jurisdiction for the cooperation extended during the past year.
We also wish to extend our gratitude to the various other de-
partments, elected Town officials, both of Watertown and other
communities, and private citizens who were so generous in their
cooperation throughout the year.

This year Joseph J. DiVico, by the Director's nomination, was
fortunate in attending the fourth training course in "Food Inspec-
tion Techniques" conducted by the Federal Food and Drug Admin-
istration. `T'1,is course explained the methods, tools and procedures
used to enforce the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act. The use
of "tools of the trade" such as, camera, black light, oleomargarine
kit, sampling equipment and so forth were demonstrated at this
course by experienced Federal Food and Drug Inspectors.
Both Sanitarians were appointed to a Public Relations Com-
mittee by the leadership of the Massachusetts Association of Sani-
tarians. This work from a drawing-board stage resulted in a com-
plete display case which is now being used throughout the State.
The theme of this display can best be described by the definition of
Sanitation which is the prevention of diseases by eliminating or
controlling environmental factors which form links in the chain of
transmission.
Working on the Rubbish-Garbage Committee this year gave the
Sanitarians an insight as to how other communities are handling
this complex problem. By attending Planning Board meetings,
Board of Appeals meetings, working closely with the Building De-
partment, Highway Department, Water Department, Police Depart-
ANNUAL REPORTS — 1965 199
ment, Wires Department and Fire Department many problems
which come under Article II of the Sanitary Code were prevented
or resolved at a much faster pace than would normally be expected.
It is hoped that in 1966 individuals from various departments could
meet periodically to discuss environmental problems.
Among all the nuisance complaints which ranged from barking
dogs to spilled garbage, one problem in particular stands out as
unique. By borrowing a decibel machine, properly calibrated, from
the Harvard School of Public Health it was possible to prove
scientifically that a noise stemming from a compressor of a large
industrial company was responsible for making a nervous wreck
out of two elderly people.
One routine inspection of an establishment resulted in the de-
struction of 150 pounds of shortening, 50 pounds of oleomargarine
and 8,650 pounds of flour.
Introduction and enforcement of Article X of the Massachu-
setts Sanitary Code, "Minimum Sanitation Standards for Food
Service Establishments" was realized this year. Enforcement of
these more stringent regulations has called for more surveillance,
problem solving recommendations and research by our sanitarians.
However, complete compliance with the new code was realized by
most food and beverage service establishments to enrich the health
standards of consumers working. living and visiting in Watertown.
Richard F. Slein, R. S. has been appointed as Distric, Sanitarian
(So. East), Division of Sanitary Engineering, Massachusetts De-
partment of Public Health and terminated his service to Water-
town on December 31, 1965.

tion was given other Town departments upon request. A twenty-
foot clothes rack was built for the Welfare Department. Assistance
was given in the planning and installation of the toilet room for

made and help given the custodian regarding the heating system
in the Administration Building.
In the early spring of 1966 there will be one Uniform Plumb-
ing Code for the entire Commonwealth of Massachusetts. This
is something I have worked for for over twenty years and am
pleased to have played a major role in its becoming a reality. My
sincere thanks are extended to the Board of Health for permitting
me to serve on the Code Committee and for making the necessary
time available. Watertown can deservedly share in the credit for
this Uniform Plumbing rode since the Watertown Code, which has
202 TOWN OF WATERTOWN
been adopted by many cities and towns in Massachusetts in the
past several years, is in a very large measure, being used and
adopted as the Uniform Plumbing Code for Massachusetts.
I wish to sincerely thank the Director, Dr. Paul F. Murray and
khe members of the Health Department for their cooperation, help
and interest given me in 1965.
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 two simultaneously operating dental clinics in Watertown's
public and parochial schools performed their usual smooth routine
functions during the year 1965. Doctors Fantasia and Zelermyer
alternated their duties respectively with Mmes. Bick and Little,
bimonthly visiting the following schools: Coolidge, Hosmer, Phillips,
Marshall Spring, Lowell, Cunniff, Browne, Parker, Sacred Heart
and Saint Patrick's.
In our daily screening of our school children's mouths we note,
with great satisfaction, the continued absence of toothaches and
emergency situations such as existed in the same schools only a
decade or two ago. A persistent improvement in the care of our
pupils' mouths continues and becomes more apparent with each
passing year. The efforts of our dental clinic personnel with their
consequent educational impact may be credited in no small meas-
ure with these rewarding results over the years.
The statistics for the year are as follows:
Examinations 4581
Fillings 1359
Extractions 32
Treatments 23
Prophylaxes 479

ANNUAL REPORTS — 1965 203
Dr. Zelermyer begins his twenty-eighth year and Dr. Fantasia
has devoted more than twenty years in the dental clinics. Both
have rendered faithful and skillful professional service to the Board
of Health these many years in the clinics. Although virtue is its
own reward and this report is not meant to be a sounding board
for discontent, this might be just the appropriate opportunity to
make public the fact that the school dentists might easily and
justifiably be labelled the "forgotten men" in the roster of town
employees. For even at this late date when ideas of social security,
salary increases and labor benefits are at their pinnacle of popu-
larity, these two men, despite their noble sacrificial efforts, remain
the only employees without any classification, without voluntary
retirement status and, even as recently as this year, without inclu-
sion in the blanket raise in salary awarded all other employees
in the town publicly. Since individual efforts and avenues have
been exhausted this unfair situation remains characteristic of
Watertown and very few if any communities in the Commonwealth
with reference to school dentists. As a last resort, to erase this
injustice, it might be a worthy project for the Board of Health to
take the initiative in an appeal to the proper local authorities for
action to equate and correct the status of two professional men
in comparison to that of their labor counterpart in town employ-
ment.
Annually in closing our report we reiterate our sincere thanks
to the Board of Health, the Health Agent, the School Department
and the Sanitary Department for their steadfast dependability and
cooperation. .111 share in the continued success of the clinics in
maintaining oral conditions in our school children of which we may
be justly proud.

The Health Department continued its program of supervision
and follow-up of reportable contagious disease cases of both pa-
tients and contacts. Regarding Tuberculosis cases during 1965,
there were 11 admissions to Middlesex County Sanatorium. One
hundred twenty-two persons were transported to and from Middle-
sex County Sanatorium.
Home visits were made to T. B. patients and contacts, as well
as various other contagious disease cases.
204 TOWN OF WATERTOWN
A number of trips were also made to secure supplies for the
clinics which were held during the year, for example, to Massachu-
setts Biological Laboratories, Jamaica Plain, Massachusetts Pre-
vention of Blindness, Cambridge Mass.; stores and other business
establishments; schools and office buildings with posters for clinics,
(Wellbee).
Arranged for and assisted the Board of Health Physician at
physical examinations of 96 pupils at St. Patrick Elementary and
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 Ele-
mentary and High Schools and Sacred Heart School throughout
the school year, during which time the following was accomplished:
Screened the vision (via M.V.T.) of 766 pupils at St. Patrick
Elementary and High Schools and Sacred Heart School; sent re-
ferral letters to parents of 64 pupils who failed retests.
Hearing tests were conducted on 482 pupils of St. Patrick Ele-
mentary and High Schools and Sacred Heart School. Referrals
were sent to parents of 23 pupils who failed the test.
Periodic inspections were made of the following, and reports

The Cemetery Department had two major changes in person-
nel in 1965. John F. Horan was given a disability retirement and
Edward Gilligan retired, due to having reached the age of 70.
The replacements for the above men were Charles Ricci for
John Horan and John Aroian for Edward Gilligan.
The damaged sections of the fence at the Common Street Ceme-
tery were repaired and paid out of the Cemetery Contingent. This
deprived the department from doing repair work it had planned
on and also from purchasing a new Jack Hammer, which it needs
badly.
I wish to thank the Highway Department, Water Department
and Park Department for the assistance they gave my department
whenever we needed it.
To Tom Morley: Again I wish to thank him for the removal
of stumps from the Cemeteries and for the pruning of trees and
removal of several dead trees.

MOSQUITO CONTROL IN WATERTOWN IN 1965
Robert L. Armstrong, Superintendent
There was very little trouble with mosquitoes in Watertown
this year. Only two reports of mosquito annoyance were received
at the office. The lack of rain in late summer reduced mosquito
breeding.
The routine inspection and spraying schedule began early in
June and was continued into the first of October. No fogging was
done this year. Catch-basins were sprayed first with Dieldrin and
then with Baytex for the July and September applications. Mala-
thion was the principal spray material for most of the other ap-
plications.
The construction near the arsenal clump caused considerable
mosquito breeding for a time, but is expected to be cleaned up
next year.

20S TOWN OF WATERTOWN
INSPECTOR OF ANIMALS
John J. Murphy, D.V.M.
1. A total of 153 animals in Watertown were examined and
quarantined for biting persons in 1965.
2. The head of one animal was sent to the Wasserman Lab-
oratory in Jamaica Plain for examintion of the brain for evidence
of rabies. It was negative.
3. There were no cases of rallies in Watertown this past year.
This is no reason for complacency, however, since during the year
just ended there has been a steady advance on the borders of Mass-
achusetts of cases of rabies in domestic and wild animals. In this
connection it might be well to give as much publicity as possible
to the preventive inoculation program.
4. I want to take the pleasure of extending my appreciation
to Dr. Murray and his staff in the Board of Health and to the
Police Department for their excellent help and cooperation.
HEALTH DEPARTMENT
Paul F. Murray, Health Officer
In the spring of 1965 the research program in which the Water-
town Health Department had been participating involving the de-
tection of amblyopia exanopsia or lazy eye blindness in the three
to five-year-old group terminated. We were presented with the
problem of either discontinuing an eye program concerning the pre-
school and kindergarten children or continuing with an on-going
service program. Knowing that eye problems had been detected in
this group during the research phase and in one case a double
surgical operation was necessary to correct a situation in one child,
it was felt that not to at least try to do something about a con-
tinuing service program for these children would be a mistake. As
a result of considerable effort and the cooperation and assistance
of the National Association for the Prevention of Blindness and its
state affiliate, the Massachusetts Association for the Prevention of
Blindness, we now have four teams of volunteer women working
in the schools testing children in the Kindergarten and preschool
age groups.
I feel that these devoted women should be publicly thanked
for their efforts in this Annual Report. I am, therefore, extending

my most sincere thanks and that of the Board of Health to the
following Dedicated people:
Mrs. Winifred Feldman, 13 Dunton Road, Watertown —

In the area of Diphtheria-Tetanus and Whooping Cough im-
munizations, we have discarded our old method of offering booster
clinics every few years and are offering clinics in specific age
groups as was mentioned above in the report of the Board of
Health. In this manner we will have a more accurate picture of
the immunization status of all school children through high school
and preschool children, and as each year goes by we will auto-
matically accumulate more comprehensive and detailed statistics.
not only for this overall immunization level in the community but
also in regard to the individual immunity of each child.
Annual booster doses are being offered to the first grade of
Oral Sabin Trivalent (3 doses in one) Polio Vaccine. In all proh-
ability upper grades will be included when recommended by the
United States Public Health Service. To date clinics are being rec-
ommended by the Public Health Service only in the case of first-
grade children or in areas where epidemics exist or are imminent.
210 TOWN OF WATERTOWN
As a summary, in regard to child health the following clinics
or immunizations are being offered on an annual basis by the
Health Department in cooperation with the School Department.
Diphtheria-Tetanus and Whooping Cough Immunizations
Tetanus-Diphtheria, Diphtheria-Tetanus Immunizations
Tuberculin Testing
Preschool and Kindergarten Vision Screening
Daily Dental Clinics
Much of the materials used in these immunizations are funded
by the Federal Government by way of the Massachusetts Vaccina-
tion Assistance Program.
An active program of public health education has been con-
ducted by the department. Educational material in the form of
local press releases, film strips, booklets and pamphlets have been
extensively employed. Our environmental health personnel have
used both the film strip method combined with lectures and labora-
tory demonstration combined with talks to pupils in the junior and
senior high schools.
A regional system of glaucoma screening clinics is currently
being developed. When activated this program will be a cooperative
effort involving Watertown, Cambridge, Belmont, Arlington and
possibly one or more other communities. A resident of the glaucoma
region will be eligible to attend any clinic in the area regardless
of the community site of a clinic.
The provisions of this public health service on a regional basis
is a major step forward and hopefully will provide a positive
demonstration of the value of the concept of administrative region-
alization.

REPORT OF THE PARK DEPARTMENT
In compliance with the general laws of the Town of Watertown,
I hereby submit my report for the year ending December 31, 1965.
The year 1965 was one of growth and development for the
Park Department. A much needed tot lot, basketball court and
ice skating rink was erected on land leased from the Health De-
partment to the Park Department at Ridelawn-Cemetery. A basket-
ball court and ice skating rink was erected on Saltonstall Park,
and Hosmer Playground tennis courts were resurfaced.
It was a dry, hot summer and due to the water shortage the
monies appropriated to beautify Coolidge Playground were not ex-
pended, however, plans have been made to remedy this area this
year, weather permitting.
It was necessary to replace the sump-pump at Victory Field as
it was beyond repair.
The Park Department purchased a new Station Wagon and are
very pleased with it.
At this time we would like to thank the Superintendent of the
Water Department, D. Edwin Johnson, and his men; the Superin-
tendent of the Wire Department, Ambrose Vahey, and his men;
the Superintendent of the Highway Department, Thomas Dwyer,
and his men; and the Superintendent of the Tree Department, Tom
Morley, and his men for their assistance throughout the year.
The members of the Board would like to thank Joseph A.
Dwyer, Superintendent of Parks, and his men in the Park Depart-
ment for their cooperation in the past year.

REPORT OF THE WATER COMMISSIONER
To the Citizens of Watertown:
The Annual Report of the Board of Water Commissioners for
the year ending December 31, 1965, is respectfully submitted.
In March 1965, Leo D. Sullivan, Jr., was elected to the Board
fora three year term. James Igoe was elected Chairman, and An-
gela L. Wright was reappointed Clerk to the Board.
On August 17, 1965, the Board was deeply saddened by the
death of the Chairman, Mr. James Igoe. Mr. Igoe's service on the
Board was held in high esteem. The unfortunate vacancy on the
Board was filled by the Appointment of Mr. George Karalekas on
September 7, 1965. Mr. Sullivan was elected Chairman.
The Board wishes to express its gratitude for the many years
of faithful service by Harold K. Emands, who retired on January
29, 1965.
The Board also regretted the loss of Mary Ryan who trans-
ferred to the Office of the Assessors on April 15, 1965.
It is with pleasure the Board welcomes Richard Quinn and
Marguerite Coughlin who joined the department during the past
year.
The most significant concern of the Board during the past
year has been the sudden increase in "Red Water" in Watertown.
Many meetings were held with technical experts in order to ar-
rive at a solution to this problem. After extensive investigation
and discussion, the Board has taken the following course of action.
1. An Article will be placed before the 1966 Town Meeting
requesting the formation of a committee to direct a survey
of the water distribution system. This committee will pro-
vide the Board with a long range plan for maintaining the
system;
2. An appropriation has been placed in the 1966 budget for
the necessary funds to purchase and install five phosphate
feeders in the system. The treatment of the water with
phosphates has solved "Red Water" problems in mane
nearby cities and towns; and,
3, The Board has planned to increase the amount of recon-
struction during 1966.
218 TOWN OF WATERTOWN
The Board is very grateful for the advisements rendered by
Mr. Francis O'Hara, Manager of the Arlington Department of
Public Works, and Mr. James Sullivan, Town Engineer.
Due to the serious drought conditions existing in the area, the
Board was requested by the Massachusetts Department of Public
Health and the Metropolitan District Commission to institute a ban
on the use of water in the Town. It is hoped that these conditions
will be relieved in the coming months and that the need for a ban
would not exist next summer. The residents are urged to conserve
water during the drought so that restrictions on water use will
not have to be imposed.
We wish to thank the employees of the department for their
efforts in maintaining the water systems throughout the year. We
shall continue our efforts to provide the residents with the maxi-
mum service possible in the future.
Respectfully submitted,
LEO D. SULLIVAN, JR., Chairman

The State Street Bank and Trust continues to act as Fiscal
Agent in connection with temporary financing.
A bid by First National City Bank of New York of 2.77% plus
a premium of $22.00 was accepted on the 7th series notes dated
December 8, 1965, due December 9, 1966 amounting to $434,000 on
Watertown 667-1 (Elderly Housing).
A bid by the First National Bank of Boston of 2.68�/0 on the
11th series notes of Watertown 200-3C was accepted on $1,994,000
notes dated December 8, 1965, due December 9, 1966 on Watertown
200-3C.
The Union Market National Bank of Watertown acts as the
depositary in connection with the purchase and sale of U. S. Treas-
ury Bills for the Administration Fund of 200-3c and the Coolidge
Bank and Trust Company is depositary in this connection for Water-
town 667-1.
Watertown 200-3C was painted during 1965 at a cost of $26,775.
the lowest bidder being Modern Decorators of Winthrop.
It is contemplated painting of the trim on the brick apartments,
the trim on Watertown 200-2 (east end) and the trim on the Elderly
Apartments during 1966 as soon as the weather permits.
Inasmuch as the Elderly Project will be five years old in Au-
gust 1966, painting of the interior hallways is being planned and
possibly the apartments, or a portion of them may be done, during
the year.

' ')4 TOWN OF WATERTOWN
REPORT OF THE HIGHWAY DEPARTMENT FOR 1965
The following named streets were reconstructed and resur-
faced during the past year with funds provided for under Chapter
90 of the General Laws, which allows the State to pay 50�� of the
cost, the County 25°Ic> and the Town 25%:;
Waltham Street from Stanley Avenue to the Waltham Line
Pleasant and Bridge Streets, northwest corner was widened and
resurfaced.
Pleasant Street from Bridge Street to west of Howard Street.
Under Chapter 90 for 1966 we expect to start construction on
the Bridge Street bridge over the Charles River sometime after
April 1, 1966, also finish the resurfacing of Pleasant Street from
where we left off in 1965 to Church Hill Street where we stopped
in 1964.
With the balance of State funds allocated to the Town under
Section 4, Chapter 782 of the Acts of 1962 we were able to re-
construct sections of Melendy Avenue from Laurel Street to Oak
Street and Union Street from Morse Street to Eliot Street.
Under Section 5, Chapter 822 of the Acts of 1963, which also
provided the Town with State funds for road construction, we com-
pleted another section of Maplewood Street from School Street to
Langdon Avenue. I have a balance under this account of about
$13,000.00, which I hope will be sufficient to complete the remain-
der of Maplewood Street to Arlington Street during the coming
year.
Also, the Town's share for 1965 Chapter 90 costs and the in-
stallation of the new type traffic lights at six (6) different loca-
tions were provided for with funds allocated to the Town under
Chapter 822.
This department did a tremendous amount of work on new
crosswalks and traffic signs, as so required under the new pedestrian
traffic law, which is now in effect. Considerable more has to be
done in order to 'bring the Town up to the provisions required for
by this law.
ANNUAL REPORTS — 1965 225
The Municipal incinerator will be in full operation five years
as of May 1, 1966, and each year has shown a considerable in-
crease over the previous year in refuse being disposed of at the
incinerator. The following figures show the cost of operation and
maintenance for the past four complete years of operation:
Year Tons Incinerated Cost per ton
1962 15,431 tons $4.28
1963 17,714 tons 4.38
1963 17,714 tons 4.33
1965 24,601 tons 3.90
An incinerator is a costly proposition, especially when a lot of
industrial waste and rubber material is disposed of, such as we re-
ceive here in Watertown. For over a year now we are burning all
garbage, therefore repairs and preventive maintenance is a must
and has to be accomplished on weekends or early morning when the
equipment is cold. All repairs are done with the incinerator help,
therefore requiring much overtime of which I have heard a lot
about, but at no time since this plant has been in operation have
we called in an outside contractor for repairs, thereby saving the
Town thousands of dollars. I am well satisfied with the operation
of the incinerator.
Due to the increase of garbage disposals, dishwashers and
washing machines we have experienced a big increase in the main-
tenance of our sewer system all over Town, and it is my opinion
that this condition is created from a combination of grease from
the disposals and the detergents used in the washing machines.
There is no question but that we have outgrown our present sewer
system and in another year, after the new Metropolitan District
Commission trunk line sewer is put into operation we will have to
start a .program of enlarging some of our main sewer lines.

2,A TOWN OF WATERTOWN
ANNUAL REPORT OF THE COUNCIL FOR THE AGING
This Council is vitally concerned with that segment of our
older population which, for some reason or another, are in need of
some kind of care by other persons. While it is true that the pro-
portion of older citizens who need such care is small percentage
wise, it is nevertheless a sometimes overwhelming and frustrating
problem and the remaining citizenry must offer a solution. The
Town of Watertown has an impressive record of leadership in its
active concern for those citizens who are underprivileged or de-
prived. It is the intention of this Council to be especially involved
in the problems that surround the increasing number of older per-
sons who lack sufficient resources to meet these problems unaided.
During the past year trips were made by various organizations
of elder citizens to the following locations: Hampton Beach, Old
Orchard Beach, Guffs Falls, Hyannis, Portsmouth, Rockport, Salem
Willows, Nantasket and the Berkshires.
For the above trips and its many other activities, including a
highly successful Christmas Party, the Senior Citizens wish to thank
their fellow townspeople. It is the Council's hope for the coming
year to try to consolidate the many different elderly clubs into one
group in regards to trips, parties, and other recreational activities.
In this way we believe that they, and the Town, will receive the
greatest benefit of the budget allocated for this purpose.
Respectfully submitted,
WALTER J. OATES, JR.
Chairman
ANNUAL REPORTS — 1965 235
REPORT OF THE CIVIL DEFENSE AGENCY
The year 1965 has brought about further expansion of the over-
all program of the Civil Defense in Watertown.
The job of filling the water barrels in the shelters, which has
been a constant problem to the directors since the inception of
stocking in 1963, was finally accomplished this summer. The bar-
rels are now properly filled and stored for use by the public in
event of emergency.
The Civil Defense Agency has added five fallout shelters to its
former total of sixteen, bringing the number of shelters to twenty-
one. These five were acquired from the Federal Government due
to the phasing-out program presently being executed at the Arsenal.
The total rated capacity of the Watertown shelters is now 14,336.
The Town is in the process of being resurveyed for the purpose
of finding new shelters to be licensed and additional spaces in
existing shelters.
Attributable, also, to the change-over at the Arsenal, the Auxil-
iary Fire Department, a unit of the Civil Defense, has taken over
the running of the fire station on the Arsenal premises and is
presently cleaning and refurbishing the building. Engine 5 has been
moved to the station and the Auxiliary will have use of the engine
that is currently housed there. Furniture was obtained through
Surplus Property for their use and the Wire Department installed
"tapper lines" to the area.
The Auxiliary Fire Department sent seven men to the Civil
Defense Training Academy located in Topsfield, Mass. for a three-
day training course in fire fighting and rescue. Lieutenant Man-
kiewicz, Officer-in-Charge of the Watertown Auxiliary Police De-
partment, also attended a refresher course of six-day duration on
police procedure and instruction at Topsfield.
A local program was set up in November for Adult training
in Medical Self-Help and twenty members of this class received
their certificates on December 15th. Medical Self-Help has become
a realization as part of the Health program in the Watertown
Public and Parochial Schools. It is expected that, before the school
year is out, six hundred students will have completed the course.
236 TOWN OF WATERTOWN
The Civil Defense Agency's application for participation in the
Personnel and Administrative Expense Contributions by the Federal
Government was approved as of October 1, 1965. Watertown will
receive partial reimbursement for the director's and clerk's sal-
aries and allowable administrative expenditures under the pro-
gram, which should save the Town approximately two thousand
dollars a year.
"Operation Blackout", unscheduled and unrehearsed, provided
Civil Defense with an excellent opportunity to test its prepared-
ness. Watertown responded immediately to the necessities of the
situation, marshalling its resources and personnel to aid immensely
in alleviating critical problems within the Town. Generators were
set up to provide heat, light and power to the Police and Fire
Stations. Auxiliary Fire and Police and our Communications Team
responded 100% and were used to augment the regular protective
forces.

other exceptional year because the Highway Department rebuilt
so many older streets with State Aid Funds (see construction
charts) along with the usual amount of street, sidewalk, sewer and
drain construction.
The average number of street intersection plans for stop signs
to be installed were prepared. A plan is required by the Depart-
ment of Public Safety for approval by them before any such sign
can be legally enforced.
Your Town Engineer attended every meeting of Sewer and
Drain Committee; meeting of the so called Route 20 Committee.
all of these meetings being held in Sudbury or Wayland; the com-
mittee formed to clean up the Charles River, these meetings were
held in Waltham, Cambridge, Newton and Watertown; also serving
as member and engineer for the Commission and Police Department.
SEWER AND DRAIN COMMITTEE
(See Sewer and Drain Committee 1965 Report)
At the Waltham Street. Bridge further studies have been made
and consultations with Roston and Maine R. R. representatives held.
this problem is being carried over to 1966.
ANNUAL REPORTS - 1965 239
Each year new buildings or additions to buildings are relocated
directly on the ground and then plotted on original plans kept in
this office, with any new sub-divisions of lane'. Prints of these
original plans are made and given to the Assessors Department and
Building Inspectors so that plans are kept up to date in each de-
partment. 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 accident claims by persons asking for damages because
of alleged defects on public ways. If court proceedings resulted
from these claims, a member of this department testified as to the
conditions he found.
Land Registrations filed with the Land Court concerning prop-
erties in the Town were checked by this office to see that there was
no encroachment on Town owned land and public streets.
Upon request we supplied the Hosmer School Rebuilding Com-
mittee with a detail topographic plan with all present structures,
sewerage and drain pipes along with forestry showing thereon.

During the year ending 31 December 1965, it was necessary to
REVOKE only one (1) license for cause (Permit to Cam Fire-
arm).
ANNUAL REPORTS - 1965 249
For the purpose of encouraging cooperation between the licensee
and the Police Department, and xith a view to detecting possible
violations of the laws or regulations governing a specific license, the
License Bureau made 1,125 physical inspections of licensed premises
during the year.
Any irregularities observed during the conduct of these inspec-
tions, as well as any complaints received regarding any licensee
from whatever source, were investigated and corrected. Such cor-
rection was in most instances accomplished by reprimand or warn-
ing and proper notation of such irregularities and corrective action
taken was made on department records. In a few instances it was
necessary to bring the matter to the attention of the Board of Se-
lectmen in order to obtain-corrective action. With but a few excep-
tions, however, cooperation by the various licensees was excellent.
During 1965, the "Rules for Establishments Licensed under
(Chapter 138" and the "Rules and Orders for the Regulation of
Hackney Carriages" were revised and amended to bring them up
to date and into accord with newly enacted State legislation.
GAMBLING AND VICE
:ill oiticers are reminded from time to time of the necessity of
being watchful for evidence of violations of the laws prohibiting
various forms of gambling and/or vice, and of their responsibility
for taking proper action or reporting their observations or sus-
picions to headquarters. All reports from officers or from the gen-
eral public, are thoroughly investigated by one of our captains and
his staff who have been assigned to the specific task of suppressing
and eliminating all violations of the particular laws.
In the past year we have been unable to obtain any concrete
evidence of violations of these laws, except for minor infractions of
the gaming laws, regarding which warnings (at least to date) were
considered sufficient action. These particular violations were not
associated with what is commonly known as a "crime syndicate" or
"organized gambling".
230 TOWN OF WATERTOWN
JUVENILE DIVISION
During the year ending 31 December 1965, there were two
hundred and thirty (230) juveniles involved in complaints filed
with this department. Fifty-one (51) of these juveniles were in-
volved in more than one complaint. It should be noted that in many
instances several juveniles were involved in one complaint (e.g.
Malicious Mischief) while others were involved in multiple com-
plaints (e.g. Larceny). Each time a juvenile came to our attention,
a card was filed listing his or her name and the offense in which
he or she was involved. Tabulation of these cards is as follows:

the Waltham District Court on a total of forty-nine (49) com-
plaints. Some of these juveniles appeared before the court once on

,juveniles who appeared in court received Suspended Sentences, were
placed on Probation, or subjected to "long Continuance" of their
case.
252 TOWN OF WATERTOWN
Every .possible consideration was given each boy and girl before
they were brought to court. Complaints involving juveniles not
taken to court were handled in an informal manner after consulta-
tion with parents, clergy and teachers.
In 1965, the Juvenile Division recovered stolen property and/or
secured restitution for money stolen and property damaged to the
amount of $741.75. This was accomplished:
Directly through the Police Dept. $609.50
Through the Court 43.00

TRAINING
Although departmental training in 1965 covered a wide range
of subjects, particular emphasis was placed on Civil Rights problems
and Riot Control. In this connection, three superior officers at-
tended a special seminar conducted by the State Police and Military
Police from the 26th Yankee Infantry Division.
In June, all members of the department attended a course in
Crowd Control and Gas Familiarization. This course included actual
practice in handling rioting crowds and the proper use of gas and
gas weapons under such circumstances. In addition to this practical
training, all members of the department were issued special book-
lets on "Police and the Civil Rights Act" and "How the Reds Make
a Riot".
All 'ranking and superior officers were given a Training Guide
on the subject of "Inspection and Control" — dealing with super-
visory and administrative problems — and were given a written
examination on the contents of this manual in early May.
24 "Training Keys" (4-page, 8'J2" x 11" printed pamphlets) were
issued periodically to all members of the department and on four
occasions during the year all members of the department were
,given written examinations on the material contained in these
Training Keys. Among other things, these Training Keys covered
such subjects as:
Crime and Its Prevention
Principles of Investigation
Causes of Juvenile Delinquency
Testifying in Court
Professional Police Ethics
Handling Disturbance Calls
Aggressive Police Patrol
Examination papers of both superior officers and patrolmen
were marked and made part of the individual's permanent record.
During the year, nine (9) members of the department volun-
tarily attended a special two-hour-a-week, six-weeks course in "Pa-
trol Procedure' which was conducted by the State Police at the
State Police Academy in Framingham.
256 TOWN OF WATERTOWN
Three (3) members of the department attended the State
Police Training School for Local Police Officers. This is the basic
police training course and the men attending board at the Police
Barracks for the six weeks the course is in session. All three men
successfully completed this course and were graduated on October
15, 1965.
As an adjunct to the training classes, and with a view to pro-
moting efficiency and providing the town with a better-trained,
well-informed police force, the Chief, from time to time during
the year, in bulletin form, furnished all members of the depart-
ment with copies of certain laws, their interpretation and applica-
tion, as well as copies of all amendments to the General Laws in
the Acts of 1965.
All members of the department were issued copies of a re-
port on "Drug Abuse" published by the Massachusetts State Pharm-
aceutical Association and an in-depth study of the "Drinking Driv-
er" published by Northwestern University Traffic Institute.

AUXILIARY POLICE
At the close of the year 1965, there were fifty (50) uniformed
(members of the Auxiliary Police Force. During the year these
men worked a total of 2,496 man hours. Periods of major activity
were Memorial Day, Fourth of July, Labor Day Weekend, Hal-
lowe'en and the Christmas Season.
On an average of two nights each week during the year (and
each night during the Christmas Season) Auxiliary Officers reported
(in their turn) for Traffic Duty and/or General Patrol Duty be-
tween 8 P.M. and 11 P.M. The two Civil Defense Patrol Cars as-
signed to the Auxiliary Police rolled up a total of 6,054 miles on
General Patrol Duty.
Training classes were conducted for all Auxiliary Officers on
both single-action and double-action shooting, as well as the Duties
and Responsibilities of the Auxiliary Police Officer.
We are particularly indebted to the Auxiliary Force for the
assistance rendered by them during two "emergencies" in 1965.
During the month of May we had a Riot Alert and 25 Auxiliary
Officers responded and worked a total of 69 hours. On November
9th, when the entire Northeast was blacked out because of electrical
power failure, 24 Auxiliary Officers responded and worked a total
of 77 hours.
Members of the Auxiliary Police, under Auxiliary Captain
Thomas Sherry, are to be commended for their excellent spirit and
their willingness to serve the community and the efficiency with
which they accomplished all assignments given them. They were of
invaluable assistance to the regular force during the year.
PEDESTRIAN CONTROL. The Pedestrian Control Act, adopted
in 1963, became effective in Watertown on November 1st, 1965.
Prior to the effective date, a Pedestrian Control Education pro-
gram was carried out by this department. Through the generosity
of many merchants and industries in Watertown, funds were made
available for the purchase of 600 all-weather placards which were
posted at all pedestrian crossings and other vantage points through-
out the town by members of this department. In addition, a copy of
a pamphlet outlining the new law was distributed to every home
in Watertown and a copy given to all Watertown school students
— public and parochial.
Members of this department appeared before many service,
fraternal and ether organizations and lectured on the Pedestrian
Control Law and its ramifications. A team of officers was assigned
ANNUAL REPORTS - 1965 259
to various busy intersections to warn violators and instruct them
as to what was expected of them under the new law.
At the close of the year, improvement in this area was evident
and most pedestrians and motorists seemed to be making the effort
to comply with the provisions of the Pedestrian Control — or anti-
jaywalking — law.
SCHOOL SAFETY PROGRAM. During 1965, members of this de-
partment visited every school — public and private — in the town
and spoke to 8,500 pupils on Pedestrian Safety — Bicycle Safety —
and Good Driving Habits. As part of this program, our officers
spoke to all classes of the Driver Education Course at Watertown
High School. We are indebteded to the School Department for
their assistance in arranging schedules for these talks and to var-
ious insurance companies who furnished films and literature for this
program free of charge.
BICYCLE SAFETY. A Bicycle Safety Program was conducted in
all parks in the town with the cooperation of the Recreation De-
partment. Approximately 500 children participated in this program
which consisted of inspection of bicycles (for mechanical safety)
and instruction in safe-riding habits. At the conclusion of the pro-
gram, a contest was held at Victory Field to determine the safest
riders in each of several age groups, and prizes were awarded.
Pamphlets and other materials used in this course were furnished
through the courtesy of various insurance companies and the Vet-
erans of Foreign Wars.

REPORT OF THE SUPERINTENDENT OF SCHOOLS
To the Chairman and Members of the Watertown School Cimmittee:
I have the honor to submit herewith my twenty-seventh annual
report of the schools of Watertown which is the eighty-fifth in a
series of annual reports of the Superintendent of the Watertown
Public Schools.
THE PHILOSOPHY OF WATERTOWN HIGH SCHOOL
The "Philosophy of Watertown High School" is based upon an
initial statement prepared by a committee of seven members of
the faculty. The committee held regularly scheduled meetings from
March to October 1965 to discuss, to organize and to draft its re-
port. Suggestions and statements solicited from all members of the
staff, both orally and in writing, were examined, evaluated and in-
corporated in this statement.
Copies of this statement were distributed to the entire faculty
for their comments and suggestions. The final report (the third
draft distributed to the faculty) incorporates almost all suggestions
ANNUAL REPORTS — 1965 261
made by individual faculty members and represents the consensus
of faculty thought. It has been approved by the high-school staff
as its official philosophy.
MR. JOHN McNEALY, Chairman

MR. EDWARD COLBERT

MR. PAUL HUGHES
We the Faculty of Watertown High School, consider education
to be a life-long process in which the secondary school plays a
major role in co-operation with the family, the church, and the
community. The philosophy of our school is based on the primary
Haim of education — to aid the student to become a mature and
responsible individual, commensurate with growth as a person, fam-
ily member, neighbor, and citizen. We aim to reach for this goal
by assisting the maturing student to formulate good attitudes and
habits in the areas of moral, intellectual, emotional, physical, and
social life as he prepares to take his adult place in a free demo-
cratic society.
By instruction and by example, we strive to impress on our
students the satisfactions to be found in a life guided by high
moral principles. We think it is important for the student to apply
these principles and to develop an increasing awareness of his in-
dividual worth as he plans for and works toward his goals in life.
Through our curriculum offerings we desire to help our stu-
dents to realize how much richer their lives become through intel-
lectual pursuits. In guiding mental growth, we stress: the ability
,to think logically and clearly; the development of intellectual
curiosity and sound judgment; the endless search for knowledge;
and the acquisition of skills and good study habits — all produc-
tive of enjoyment and fulfillment.
We recognize the need for an individual to have emotional
stability, yet we are aware that close to the surface of every high
school student is the sometimes turbulent private world of the
adolescent. Therefore, we endeavor to promote good mental and
physical health by establishing attitudes of friendliness, understand-
ing of others, enjoyment of work, and appreciation of life. Our aim
is to have the adolescent become a well-adjusted adult who will be
independent, secure, self-confident, understanding, and responsible.
262 TOWN OF WATERTOWN
We see the school, the home, the church, and the community
as the social institutions that share the principal responsibility of
helping the individual to adjust. Today, the school plays an increas-
ing role in helping the teen-alter solve problems. In recognizing
the fact that the adolescent often finds life an ordeal rather than
a time for enjoyment, we attempt to establish and strengthen good
habits (moral, intellectual, physical, and emotional) that are to
give a strong foundation for his social development in facing the
obligations and responsibilities of maturity.
We, the Faculty of Watertown High School, believe in our
principles, policies and practices, and realize only too well that our
endeavors often fall short of our goals and ideals. Nevertheless,
we strive to maintain standards and to improve and re-evaluate
yourselves and the curriculum from time to time for the good of
our young people. With a population of 39,850 people, in a resi-
dential town that is highly industrialized, W.H.S. draws from a
community that is varied socially, economically and ethnically.
With an enrollment of 1,387 students, we must offer for approxi-
mately 55 percent of our students, preparation for entrance into
college and other schools of higher learning; and for the remaining
45 percent, who may be terminal, a general education and prepara-
tion for gainful employment.
It is our sincere wish that the W.H.S. education program in-
cluding a broad participation in extra curricular activities will help
the student to form a consistent philosophy of life that. will assist
him to meet the future with courage, confidence, and pride.
STATEMENT OF W.H.S. OBJECTIVES
1. A program of studies designed to present a meaningful and
challenging sequence of subjects for each student according to
his needs, abilities, and objectives including:
a. Academic preparation necessary to meet the diversified

leges, universities, and specialized schools.
b. Acquisition of a sound general education and basic oc-
cupational skills for those students whose formal edu-
cation is expected to end with graduation.
2. A profes4ionally trained staff, who possess a sincere interest
in youth as individuals and who, working together, create a re-
ANNUAL REPORTS — 1965 263
fined cultural and intellectual atmosphere conducive to learn-
ing.
3. Provision of an environment which includes adequate physical
facilities to carry out the school's program — curricular and
extra-curricular, social and recreational — and which is so

herent in American democratic principles.
b. Participation in in-school situations which provide ex-
perience for an active role in our democratic society.
6. Development of effective human relations including the atti-
tudes of tolerance; of consideration for the rights and dignity
of others; of respect for duly constituted authority; and of
service to school, community, and country.
7. Promotion of personal ideals of integrity, self-discipline, pride
in work well done, and a healthy attitude in daily living.
8. An increased appreciation of our American heritage and an
awareness of the importance of contemporary problems through
knowledge of how our present civilization has evolved.
9. Competence in communication and mathematical skills neces-
sary for a satisfying adjustment to one's economic and social
status in today's dynamic world.
10. An understanding of basic natural and scientific principles
vital for successful participation in our evolving atomic and
space age.
11. Adequate training in Physical education and the encouragement
of desirable personal health habits.
264 TOWN OF WATERTQWN
12. Opportunities for self-expression and enriched use of leisure
time through varied experiences in music, literature, and the
fine arts.
13. Maintainence of a comprehensive system of student records
including uniform practices for evaluating student achievement.
14. A realization that the happiness of the individual, the security
of the nation, and the peace of the world depend on an en-
lightened citizenship which strives for a peaceful solution of
human affairs.
HIGH SCHOOL ACCREDITATION
On the basis of the findings of a visiting Committee of evaluators
appointed by the New England Association of Colleges and Sec-
ondary Schools, Watertown High School has been notified that it
is continued as an accredited member of the Association. To receive
accreditation a school must undergo an evaluation by a visiting
team of qualified educators at least once in every ten years. Every
evaluation must be carried out according to the techniques and
procedures approved by the National Study of Secondary School
Evaluation.
Over the years emphasis in secondary education has shifted from
maintenanen of minimum standards to a striving for excellence.
To this end an evaluation has as its primary objective the improve-
ment of the services of the school to the young people in the com-
munity it serves.
As provided in the Evaluative Criteria the process of evalua-
tion falls into three logical stages:
1. The self-evaluation
2. The visitation
3. The follow-up
In the first stage the school faculty and administration set out
on a program of self-analysis of the school's services, program,
and personnel. At W.H.S. this was accomplished by dividing the
staff into 23 committees to investigate and study each specific sub-
ject field and the more general areas of educational philosophy,
plaint, program, guidance and health services, instructional ma-
terials and student activities. These committees held regularly
scheduled meetings from March to November 1965.
ANNUAL REPORTS -- 1965 265
Each committee analyzed and evaluated its area to determine
how well the philosophy of the school was satisfied and how well
the needs of the youth of Watertown were met. Their conclusions
and ratings, as provided by the National Study of Secondary School
Evaluation, were entered in 23 evaluation booklets submitted to the
visiting committee. Included in the booklets were 2726 checklist
items and 808 evaluation items, all rated on a five-point scale.
In addition, the visiting committee was given a statement of
W.H.S. educational philosophy, pertinent data about the community,
bell schedules, teacher manuals, building plans, courses of study,
teachers' schedules, salary plans, class distribution, copies and ex-
planations of all school forms, and other supplementary material.
In the second stage a visiting committee, selected by the ac-
crediting agency, The New England Association of Colleges and
Secondary Schools, checked the self-evaluation submitted by the
Watertown staff. This committee of 26 members, included experi-
enced teachers, administrators and specialists. Its members rep-
resented 23 different Massachusetts secondary school systems, the
State Department of Education, and the Massachusetts Department
of Public Health.
It was the visitors' task to obtain as comprehensive a picture
of the work of W. H. S. as was possible in the limited time avail-
able and to judge the school "in terms of what it is striving to ac-
complish (the school's Philosophy and Objectives) and in terms
of the extent to which it is meeting the needs of the students for
which it is responsible." From November 15 through November 17
the evaluators visited classes, investigated instructional materials,
inspected plant and equipment, and held formal conferences with
students and with different faculty groups. Twenty-three sub-
committees checked all sections of the self-evaluation booklets and
evaluated each item. Each subcommittee drew up a report, which
when approved by the entire committee, was included in the written
report to the school.
The report showed very close agreement between the findings
of the Watertown self-evaluation committees and the visiting com-
mittee. In evaluating 3534 different items, the visiting committee
raised .3% lowered 13.2% and agreed with 86.5%. On a five-point
scale the overall rating by the W. H. S. staff was 4.3, while the
visiting committee gave an average rating of 3.9 (a difference of
only .4 — it is generally held that differences of .5 or less are not
significant). The overall rating of 3.9 on the five point scale (Poor
— Fair — Good — Very Good Excellent) falls into the Very
Good classification.
266 TOWN OF WATERTOWN
The Graphic Summary (Form A) shows the weaker areas to be
Instructional Materials (3.) and Program of Studies (3.2), while
the strongest areas are Instructional Staff (4.5), School Staff and
,Administration (4.5) and Guidance Service (4.8). No rating in
Form A is lower than Good and most ratings are Very Good.
This report, twenty-nine pages in length, concludes with the
statement:
"On the basis of the findings, it is recommended
that Watertown High School be continued in
membership of the New England Association of
Colleges and Secondary Schools."
Copies of the report were sent by the visiting committee chair-
man to Headmaster John J. Kelley for use by the W. H. S. stuff
and school authorities, to the Evaluation Program Director of the
New England Association, and to the Massachusetts Department
of Education.
Stage three of the evaluation is the follow-up. This is the
adoption of a program of self-improvement in line with the findings
of the self-evaluation and the recommendations of the visiting com-
mittee. The New England Association requires progress reports by
the headmaster:
a) A Two-Year Report due by June of the second year after
the evaluation. This report is submitted with a copy of the
evaluation report and item by item statements of what has
been done in regard to each — plus any other improve-
ments not covered in the recommendations. This report
is considered by members of the State delegation on the
Commission with a representative of the State Department
as a consultant; then by the whole Commission. The sec-
retary notifies the school of Commission action on this
report.
b) A Five-Year Report — on form provided by Commission.
For continued membership these reports must show satis-
factory progress.
The follow-up program is thus largely up to the local school
system. It is generally agreed that the worst thing that could hap-
pen would be to do nothing; almost as foolish would be -an attempt
to change everything 'overnight." Since most schools will rate high
in some areas and lower in others, it is probably less significant
ANNUAL REPORTS - 1965 267
where a school rates in a given area than the extent to which it
continues to improve. It is equally important to continue to do well
(and try to improve) in those areas which are satisfactory, as it is
to improve in weak respects. To focus attention on weak points
alone is not wholesome.
Since evaluation in any progressive school system should be a
stimulating force leading to better educational opportunities for
students, logic dictates a planned program of improvement over a
period of time. Watertown's program provides for:
1. Reactivation of the Self-Evaluation Committees by depart-
ments.
2. Critical analysis of the visiting committees recommendations.
3. Organization of these recommendations into four categories:
a) Those which can be carried out at once.
b) Those which can be carried out in the near future.
c) Those which require long range planning.
d) Those which are invalid.
4. Presentation of the evaluation report and the schools rec-
ommendations at a joint meeting of the School Committee,
the Superintendent and Assistant Superintendent, school ad-
ministrators, and department heads.
These first four steps in W. H. S. plan for a continuous pro-
gram of improvement have been carried out. There remains the
vital task of implementing the recommendations by the faculty, ad-
ministration and school authorities.
Appended is the Graphic Summary of the W. H. S. Evaluation.
INDUSTRIAL ARTS DEPARTMENT - DIRECTOR'S REPORT
The Industrial Arts curriculum for the Town of Watertown in-
cludes three levels of instruction — Elementary, Junior High
School, and Senior High School.
The Elementary phase is an introduction to the art of wood-
working during the sixth year of school. A weekly period of one
and one-half hours is alloted. During this time the use of hand
tools, indoctrination in shop safety, and assemblage of projects
268 I-OWN OF WATERTOWN
is presented. Thus far the folloNving projects have been completed:
a sandpaper block, a kitchen rack, and a cutting board.
On the Junior High School level instruction includes the study
of woodworking, metal craft, and printing. Group activity is preva-
lent in the seventh grade providing the pupil with a knowledge and
skill in the use of basic hand tools in both woodworking and metal,
and the methods and types of printing used in industry. Common
woods and metals, their characteristics and uses, have been pre-
sented to the first-year student. Since September, pupils have com-
pleted the construction of a shoeshine kit, a recipe box, and a tie
rack in woodworking; a metal scoop and a cooky cutter including
the soldering of each in metal; the importance, the types, the meth-
ods, and the reading of type in printing.
Practice of skills previously acquired and the development of
new hand tool skills and processes have been stressed in the eighth
and ninth grades. Pupils have been encouraged to assume respons-
ibility for the upkeep and maintenance of school shops. They have
been taught to care for and sharpen tools, to perform the basic
operation of woodworking and sheet metal machines. Avocational
interests have been developed through the use of power driven
machines and in the free selection of projects to be completed
throughout this school year. Fabrication and finishing processes
have been introduced. Class projects completed in woodworking
at this time include a night lamp, magazine rack, bookcase, and
sailboat. Extra curricular activities have encompassed the repair-
ing of classroom furniture, the construction of several classroom
bookcases, scenery and prope for the Watertown Teachers' fashion
show, the Veteran's Day program, and the Christmas pageants.
Printing and metal activities for this half-year period comprise
many extracurricular accomplishments such as the soldering and
maintenance of school musical instruments, the printing of Guid-
ance Counselors' admittance slips, program cards, teachers' menu
slips, homeroom attendance slips, corridor passes, return addresses
on school envelopes, and Parents' Night flyers.
With the onset of this school year, the director and his High
School staff held meetings twice weekly in preparation for the
school's evaluation program. A course of study was developed in
correlation with the work of the other departments in the school.
However, the objectives of the evaluator appointed for the Indus-
trial Arts Department were in conflict with those of this depart-
ment; stress was placed by the evaluator on monetary expenditure
for new equipment rather than on pupil achievement. Nevertheless,
ANNUAL REPORTS - 1965 269
it is the opinion of the director that a thoroughly adequate and
comprehensive course is being given to the high school student under
the able tutelage of his staff.
This High School course includes development of skills in auto-
mechanics, machine shop, electricity, woodworking, printing, and
drafting.
Auto-Mechanics
Underclass study has involved the theory and practice of auto-
mechanics. Each pupil has been given a knowledge of tools used
in the machine shop. Each project includes dismantling an individual
engine, studying its component parts, adjusting and reassembling it.
A small Hillman-Mink, donated by a former student, is the
class study of Juniors and Seniors. This entails the removal of the
engine and transmission as a unit. Checks are made on compres-
sion, vacuum, voltage regulator, and timing. Boys who operate cars
have opportunity to work on them, replacing brakes and clutches,
changing tires, checking ignition switches, changing oil filters and
oil, testing and charging batteries, and performing general tune-
ups. Every car is inspected for road safety before leaving the
school shop. Since September many boys have obtained after-
school work in garages and gasoline stations.
Electricity
Pupil participation has taken place in the wiring and increas-
ing of booth space in the electrical shop by 50%. This wiring en-
tails a switching arrangement which makes low voltage alternate
and variable direct current readily available. It also provides simul-
taneous operation of alternate current in one area and direct cur-
rent in another. Metal racks on which motor controls are mounted
for more efficient shop use have been extended. Continuing work on
the modification of motors for more complicated operations has
been carried on extensively. A renewed interest in the school's
radio club has taken place through class work on personal radio
equipment. Three boys are taking the Novice Radio Operator Ex-
amination during the Christmas vacation. Enthusiastic participa-
tion of one boy has sparked the wiring of the electrical shop for
sound. After completion of a suitable enclosure for a second speak-
er, stereophonic music will be available throughout the shop.
270 TOWN OF WATERTOWN
Printing
Work outlined for First-year students entails learning the job
case, setting type, taking proofs, reading the composition, the art
of distributing type, and the operation of the presses. All but the
last-mentioned procedure have been taught at this time.
Lesson planning for the upper clansmen is centered around proj-
ects referring to the needs of the school. Since the opening of
school this year, training has been devoted to printing used in the
Federal Lunch Program. Other activities encompass the printing of
World, European, and United States maps used in the History De-
partment, and the compilation of the Teachers' Manual.
An interesting and challenging innovation has been added in
the Printing Department this year. A former graduate, now work-
ing in the printing industry, has returned for a post-graduate course
in order to shorten the time of his apprenticeship. This plan has
received the approbation of the printing firm with the hope that
future students interested in this type of work may have this op-
portunity on a full-time scale.
Machine Shop
This course consists of acquiring knowledge of the nomenclature
and rudiments of the lathe, drill press, and miller, in addition to
the small tools and attachments used on these machines. Projects
for the first year are a medium screw driver and a "C" clamp.
The second and third year machine student has continued using
the same machines; however, the operation is more complex. This
further study also includes training in the use of a shaper, power
saw, and grinder. Projects range from tools to repair parts. At
present, the major project is an axle, pulley, and bearing remover.
Drafting
First-year students have been initiated in the use of terms,
tools, and geometric figures pertaining to mechanical drawing. As
pupils become more proficient, they are directed to basic ortho-
graphic drawings with emphasis on neatness and clarity.
Terms such as "auxiliary", "perspective", and "isometric" are
investigated in the second year of study. Drawing deals mainly
with blueprint reading. Reproduction of student drawings by means
ANNUAL REPORTS — 1965 271
of the ozalid process is done. Auxiliaries and oblique procedures
are done at this time.
An introduction to blueprint reading and the making of a set
of house plans is the work of the third-year-student. Many new
facets of construction such as the use of sound waves instead of
the pile-driver, cost of urban and suburban home sites, land clear-
ing and foundation costs, and methods of systematic and logical
planning in home construction have been discussed. Audio-visual
aids and reference materials very effectively contribute to this
course.
Woodworking
The beginner in the woodworking class starts on an instruc-
tional basis learning tool handling, layout work, and the properties
of wood before continuing on to projects of their own choosing.
These consist in the construction of wall shelves, jewelry boxes,
smoking stands, book ends, bird houses, and small tables.
The advanced second and third year student has progressed
to the use of machines. They are instructed in the safe operation
of the circular and band saws, the jointer, planer, shaper, and
mortise machine. All personal projects are selected by the boys.
They are tables, desks, bookcases, chests, etc. Projects which benefit
the school are: a twenty-compartment mail box, field hockey goals,
bookcases, picture frames, cutting boards, and knife holders. Re-
pair of school furniture is a major project in this class.
The ultimate goal of all phases of the Industrial A:is Depart-
ment is to instill in the pupil, the future citizen, an awareness of
his role in the progress of industry and education through the prac-
tical application of the skills acquired in these classes.

COMMENTS ON FOLLOW-UP SURVEY,
WATERTOWN HIGH SCHOOL CLASS OF 1964
1, The follow-up survey was undertaken in the Spring of 1965
by means of sending a letter and a one-page questionnaire to all
who had graduated from Watertown High School in June, 1964. It
was also necessary to send postcards and to make telephone calls
to those who had not replied before the termination of the study on
June 15, one year following graduation. A study of this kind is
known as a one year follow-up survey and this year's is the 26th
consecutive annual study made of Watertown High School grad-
uates.
2. The percentage of graduates reporting and included in the
tabulations was 95.3 percent of those graduating. This is four per-
cent larger than the percentage reporting in the previous year, and
is considered a very high rate of return for a study of this kind.
3. The percentage of graduates from this class continuing post-
secondary school education is five percent lower than the previous
year and represents a dip in the percentage attending school or col-
lege observed in recent years. It is interesting to note that a similar
five percent dip occured in the class of 1958, followed by five years
of gradual increase.
4. Those continuing post-secondary education include 76 per-
cent of College Preparatory graduates, 24 percent of General, and
11 percent of Business.
5. Of the 181 graduates continuing their education, 57.4 per-
cent are attending four year degree granting colleges or univer-
sities as follows: Liberal Arts 24.3 percent, Teacher Training 13.2
percent, Engineering 8.8 percent, Business Administration 7.2 per-
cent, College Art, Pharmacy and Physical Therapy, 1.1 percent
each, and College Nursing less than 1 percent.
6. The remaining 42.6 epreent of those continuing their edu-
cation were pursuing the following types of programs: Two-year
Associate Degree 8.3 percent including Liberal Arts, Technological,
Business, Art, and Dental Hygiene; Three-year Diploma 7.2 percent,
including Nurses Training, Art, Business, and Teaching: Two-year
Diploma 10.0 percent, including Business, Merchandising, and X-ray
Technician: One-year Diploma or less 17.1 percent including Pre-
paratory School, Business, Technology, Beauty Culture, etc.
7. The percentages noted in No. 5 and No. 6 are substantially
similar to those reported for the previous graduating class.
ANNUAL REPORTS — 1965 289
8. Of those attending four-year degree granting colleges and
universities, 58.7 percent are attending within the Boston area, an
additional 25 percent within Massachusetts but outside the Boston
area, 4.8 percent in another New England state, and 11.5 percent
outside of New England.
9. The Watertown percentages of this Class continuing post-
secondary education are strikingly lower than we have had in re-
cent years and lower than those of other public high. schools in
Massachusetts. A comparison of the Watertown figures with those
for the State (taken from a report of the Massachusetts Department
of Education, June 1965 and based upon a study of 1962 graduates
is given below. The categories of schools and colleges attended are
those given in the State report.

Graduates Attending High School '64 High Schools
Massachusetts State Colleges (4 yr.) 4.0 5.7

Nurses Training (3 yr.) 2.2 3.3
Other Colleges and Schools
(1, 2, & 3 yrs.) 13.7 12.6
Total Continuing Education 45.0 52.4
10. The number regularly employed, including those in mili-
tary service and girls married, is slightly more than one-half of
those graduating, namely 54.0 percent. Included among them are
88.9 percent of the Industrial Arts curriculum graduates, 89. per-
cent of the Business, 75 percent of the General, and 22.7 percent of
the College Preparatory.
11. The percentages of the different curricula reporting regu-
lar employment (No. 10 above) and continuing post-secondary edu-
cation (No. 4 above) indicate that each curriculum is generally
meeting the needs for which it was intended. The Industrial Arts
and Business curricula are geared toward vocational training and
are terminal in nature. The General is both vocational and aca-
demic, and the College Preparatory academic. The percentage of
College Preparatory going to work directly from High School is
7.5 percent higher than for the previous year.
290 TOWN OF WATERTOWN
12. The graduates regularly employed, exclusive of those in
Military Service, were working in the following locations: 46 per-
cent in Watertown, 31.3 percent in communities contiguous to Wa-
tertown, 21 percent in Boston, and 1.7 percent outside of State.
13. The mean weekly salary of those regularly employed was
$67.00. 2.7 percent report salaries under $50. per week, 17.8 per-
cent within the range $50-$59., 44.8 percent $60-$69., 17.3 percent
$70-$79., and 17.4 percent $80. and above.
14. The percentage of graduates reported as married within
one year of high school graduation was 2.0 percent, 1 boy and 3
girls.

1. The term drop-outs refers to students who withdraw from
school before completion of year and who do not attend school
elsewhere. Those withdrawing to attend another school are called
transfers and are not included in the drop-out count.
2. The percentage of drop-outs for the year 1964-65 in the Wa-
tertown grades 9-12 is 2.0 percent of the total membership for these
grades. This percentage is .4 of one percent lower than the per-
centage for the previous year.
3. The greatest attrition occured again in Grade 11. Although
this is the grade where the largest number of drop-outs generally
occur in Watertown, this year's Grade 11 percentage of the total
number of drop-outs was 13.3 percent lower than it was last year.
4. If the drop-out rate of '64-'65 should remain relatively con-
stant for the next three years, it would indicate that Watertown
was holding in school to graduate approximately 92 out of 100 of
the students entering in Grade 9. This would be inferred by multi-
plying the present drop-out rate of 2.0 percent by 4, the number
of years covered in Grades 9-12, producing an overall four year
drop-out rate of 8.0 percent and a four year holding-power of 92
percent. The holding-power rate for the one year '64-165 is 98.0
percent.
5. The percentages of drop-outs for the past four years, in-
cluding '64-'65, «vere 1.3, 1.9, 2.4 and 2.0 respectively, a total of 7.6
percent (see Table 8). From these data we can conclude that dur-
ing the past four years Watertown High School graduated approxi-
mately 92 percent of the students entering Grade 9 in 1961. It
must be borne in mind, however, that each year a number of stu-
dents transfer to other schools and enter Watertown High School
from other schools, the number involved approximately balancing
each other.

WORK STUDY PROGRAM
Effective in September 1965, a work-study program was offered
to high school students following a vocational educational program.
The work-study program allows the student to attend school in the
morning and to work in the afternoon, generally on a related job.
A counselor acts as coordinator of the program acting as a liaison
between the school and the employer. One of the major aims of
the program is to encourage potential drop-outs to stay in school.
It helps such students gain a sense of status and aids them in the
development of their social maturity. Furthermore, many of these
students are enabled to increase their sense of responsibility by
contributing to the support of their families, a financial contribu-
tion that is often a necessity.
As of December 31, seventy-three (73) students were par-
ticipating in the program. This included fifty (50) boys and twenty-
three (23) girls, with the majority working at local places of busi-
ness (Table 14). The total weekly compensation for the 73 stu-
dents is $2,156.00, an average of $29.54 per week per student.

REPORT OF THE CHAIRMAN
This year has shown a continuation and acceleration of a trend
in library use which became evident several years ago. To an in-
creasing extent, the Library has become a reference resource for
students in Watertown schools and in the neighboring colleges. The
opening of community colleges in Boston, and at the Watertown-
Waltham line, without library facilities of their own has greatly
increased this pressure.
This development is reflected in demands both upon staff and
materials. Indeed the insistent requirement for books to serve this
demand has seriously interfered with the service of what used to
be considered the principal clientele of the library, the adult reader
for recreation or study in particular interests or hobbies. If we
are to continue to meet the needs of both, our book appropriation
must be expanded.
In June of this year, legislation became effective which re-
quires certification by the State for professional Librarians, who
must meet certain standards, in general a graduate (Master's) de-
gree in Library Science.
This legislation intensifies the problem of hiring and main-
taining professional staff.
The Trustees have requested the Personnel Board to re-classify
professional positions in the Library, placing them in the same
grades as other professional positions in the Town service.
A re-organization of the staff, started last year has been con.
tinued. Its object has been to reduce the number of professiona
employees by re-assignment of duties, permitting professionals t(
give all their time to duties requiring their training, and increasing
the proportion of employees in sub-professional grades. This has re
sulted in economies so extensive that if the changes in professiona
grades are made as requested, the Library salary appropriatio
will be slightly less than it was in 1965.
An effective organization and administration by our Directo:
Mr. Joseph S. Hopkins, has permitted a program of expanded sere
ice and improved staff compensation with a budget increase c
but 2.9%.
CHARLES T. BURKE,

304 TOWN OF WATERTOWN
REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR
To the Trustees of the Watertown Free Public Library:
The 98th Annual Report of the Watertown Free Public Li-
brary is herewith submitted.
Since my appointment to the Directorship of the Library in
October of 1963, I have given studied emphasis to two areas
of established operations: the organization of the staff in terms of
job-classification, work schedules, and professional status; and the
book and periodical collection in terms of selection procedures, ac-
cess to stored materials, and the retention and disposal of old and
seldom used materials. Although both areas have been under
parallel, constant examination and revision, I intend here but a
summary comment on staff organization, as this has already re-
ceived attention in my 1964 report, and devote much of this 1965
report to the organizational efforts relating to the book and period-
ical collection.
In brief, the present staff structure shows personnel strength,
not heretofore available, in the Young Adult and Reference De-
partments of the Main Library. Classification requirements for
staffing of the West Branch and the Catalog and Circulation De-
partments of the Main Library have been revised resulting in sal-
ary savings estimated near ten thousand dollars. Work schedules
have been Aabilized and the status of the professional examined,
publicized, and hopefully recognized by members of the Town
Meeting.
Average book prices in 1963 rose from $6.55 to $7.65 in 1965,
Book production, in the same period, increased from 25,784 titles
to 28,595. These two factors, increased prices and production, have
reduced the Library's book purchases to slightly more than ten
percent of the available market despite increases in library book
expenditures. This result accentuated the need for efficient and
careful selection procedures.
In September of 1964 new procedures were established. They
were based on the premise that it is physically impossible to per-
sonally examine, in a thoroughly critical manner, the yearly out-
put of books or even the library's yearly acquisitions. Consequently,
the library staff must, in the majority of cases, depend upon
authoritative, critical, published reviews as a major aid in the se-
lection process. In cases where a book lent itself to serious public
controversy, it is to be personally examined and selected or re-
ANNUAL REPORTS — 1965 305
jccted on the basis of both library and published evaluations. It
was the purpose of these new procedures:
1. To provide a competent selection of critical reviews which
would cover the bulk of books that could be expected to be
considered in view of the library's objectives and finances.
2. To provide flexibility whereby the unheralded or question-
able book and the specialized or obscure review may be
presented and considered.
3. To assign responsibility for the selection of books to staff
members according to their appropriate subject areas.
4. To provide a limited overlap of selection responsibility in
order to achieve varied views.
5. To expedite the acquisition of books by established authors
or those on timely subjects whose value to the library is
readily recognized.
6. To prevent unnecessary duplication of orders.
7. To provide the Library Director with a monthly financial
analysis of book expenditures by departments and an over-
all view of the titles selected.
A substantial, growing emphasis on periodical use in student
assignments has led to a heavy demand for the prompt availability
of contemporary magazines and newspapers. At the same time, the
library faced overflowing, dimly lighted, storage facilities that
worked against the rapid retrieval of wanted magazines and often
caused damage to its flimsy format,
To meet this demand and to overcome existing handicaps, the
following steps were initiated and executed:
1. A checklist of holdings of defunct periodicals was com-
piled, reviewed, and evaluated in terms of their past use,
reference value, and worth to the community. Much was
withdrawn.
2. Similarly, retention practices of current magazines were
also reviewed, evaluated and revised.
3. New lighting was installed and protective binding measures
instituted.
W6 TOWN OF WATERTOWN
4. Periodical storage racks were purchased and visible index-
ing established.
5. Microfilm and a reader were added.
6. Magazines on heavy call were placed on reference and a
comprehensive review of circulation practices planned.
In 1956, a new addition to the Main Library increased its book
capacity by more than fourteen thousand volumes. At the begin-
ning of 1964, the library staff, both at the branches and the Main
Library, were hard put to find shelf space for new books which
were added in greater numbers. What was recognized by Joseph
Wheeler in his Library 'Survey of 1952, when he wrote that the
book stock "includes thousands of volumes no longer profitable to
house; they should be weeded", becomes absolutely essential in
1964. These steps were taken:
1. The establishment of a written policy spelling out the bases
for the withdrawal and disposal of library materials com-
patible with the Town's By-Laws, the Board of Library
Trustees, and the Purchasing Agent.
2. The execution of an accelerated system-wide drive to with-
draw and dispose of readily recognized obsolete materials.
Materials published prior to 1870 and those containing any
aspect of New England history were automatically re-
served and set aside for a more detailed examination.
3. The initiation of a continuous program, in the Main Library,
for evaluation and disposal of all books published prior to
1930 whose present value or lack of value could only be
determined by lengthy study.
4. The requirement of monthly departmental, statistical re-
ports showing books added and withdrawn within each de-
partment. Department heads were instructed to use these
reports as a guide for maintaining a reasonable balance be-
tween acquisitions and withdrawals.
5. A large scale shift and consolidation of books involving the
Adult Reading Room, the Reference Department and the
2nd and 3rd stack storage areas in the Main Library. Its
purpose was to clarify the location of books as it related
to currency, public use, shelf capacity and department
needs.
ANNUAL REPORTS - 1965 307
Except for the reduction of book stock from 155,595 volumes
in January of 1964 to a more meaningful and manageable propor-
tion of 131,595 at December of 1965, no measured results of the
multi-faceted effort, described in this report, is now available. It
is unlikely that clear cut figures of progress will be available in
the near future. This is primarily due to the inherent nature of the
effort which strove for qualitative results, an attribute not easily
and quickly assayed. Consequently, any immediate evaluation must
concern itself with the logic and reasonableness of the procedures
themselves and their execution.

A total of 11,147 persons voted in the Town Election.
VITAL STATISTICS
As of this writing, the office of town clerk has incomplete re-
turns for the year in respect to births and deaths. This is because
the community has no hospital, and the office must await returns
furnished by neighboring towns and cities.
A total of 419 couples filed Intentions of Marriage during 3.965,
which was an increase of 18 over the preceding year. The total
number of marriages consummated, including records of Watertown
persons married without the country and out-of-state, numbered
447. The foregoing total of 447 includes records of out-of-town
couples who were married within Watertown, the law requiring
that a copy of such marriages be recorded in Watertown.
A total of 312 deaths, relating to persons who died in Water-
town or Watertown residents who died out of town, have been for-
warded to the Secretary of State to date. This is an incomplete
total as many returns have not as yet been received from neigh-
boring towns and cities.
The record of births relating to Watertown parents received
in the office to date totals 905 This is an incomplete total as
324 TOWN OF WATERTOWN
many returns have not been received. A11 births to Watertown
parents took place in hospitals located in neighboring towns and
cities, and one birth took place in an out-of-state hospital.
CLAIM'S AGAINST TOWN AND INVOLVING TOWN PROPERTY
The office of Town Clerk processed 58 claims. The claims were
mostly for alleged defects, etc., and for accidents involving town
property and town equipment. All such claims are filed with the
Town Clerk, who processes them for investigation, and then are
turned over to the Town Counsel.
BY-LAWS REVISED
The office of the Town Clerk revised the by-laws and brought
them up-to-date and published a new book. The office also assisted
the Planning Board in revising the Zoning By-Laws.
SERVED AS INTERNATIONAL PRESIDENT
As your town clerk, I was distinctly honored by election to
the Presidency of The International Institute of Municipal Clerks,
with offices in Chicago. The Institute has a membership of 2000
clerks from every state in the Union, and several foreign countries.
I presided over the largest convention of the Institute in Denver,
Colorado during the month of May. I greatly appreciate the honor
and the distinction bestowed upon the Town of Watertown through
my election as president. During my vacation in the month of July
I took a trip into 22 states and four Canadian Provinces and had
an opportunity to visit the home bases of several clerks.

REPORT OF THE WATERTOWN PLANNING BOARD
In 1964 the Planning Board prepared a report on Watertown
Square outlining the nature of the problems and suggested alterna-
tive actions that the Town might take to solve them.
The Board felt that a renewal project could be undertaken
only if there was general support from the merchants and the
public. A series of public and private meetings were held in order
to determine the pulse of public opinion. It became quite obvious
that public opinion was against a renewal project. The Board,
therefore, recommends to the Board of Selectmen that a renewal
project for the Square should not be undertaken. However, the
Planning Board suggested that a major traffic study be under-
taken that would lead to an action program.
With the phasing out of the Watertown Arsenal the Selectmen,
Planning Board and Arsenal Study Committee met on numerous
occasions to decide what steps should be taken in order that the
Arsenal land be reverted to the Town. The Board, after many dis-
cussions, recommended to the 'Selectmen that the most effective
method for the development of the Arsenal site would be the
creation of an urban renewal authority. It was suggested that a
Special Town Meeting be called as soon as possible to create the
renewal authority.
Many meetings were held with the Board of Park Commis-
sioners and the Recreation Director to see if it would be feasible
to have a comprehensive study of the recreation program and
facilities of the Town. It was decided by the various Boards in-
volved that it would be better to wait until the fall of 1966 before
further consideration be given to such a study.
Members of the Board served on many important committees
during the year: Arsenal Study Committee, Boys Club Committee,
Xletropolitan Planning Committee, Route 20 Transportation Co-
ordinating Committee, Capital Oulay Commitee and Conservation
Study Committee.

REPORT OF THE RECREATION DEPARTMENT
To the Chairman and Members of the Watertown Recreation com-
mission:
The annual report is respectfully submitted covering the de-
partment's progress, development, and services extended for the
year ending December 31, 1965.
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
interests and skills; education for safe and healthful living; con-
structive use of leisure time; opportunities for self-expression and
relaxation; and contributions toward character growth, social ad-
justment and good citizenship — these objectives of the Commis-
sion 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."
ORGANIZATION
The Watertown Recreation Commission is composed of seven
members, four whom are permanent. The other three are appointed
by the Selectmen. The four permanent members include the Su-
perintendent of Schools, Chief of Police, Head Librarian and Su-
perintendent of Parks. The Recreation Director is appointed by
the Commission.
1. Officers of the Commission
a. Chairman
b. Secretary
2. Other members
The members are responsible for the overall function of the
Department in providing legal authorization for the community to
furnish recreation services as permitted by local government; and
to define powers, duties, functions, and responsibilities of the se-
lected managing authority. The job of the Recreation Director is
to advise the board; to bring to the attention of the board all the
pertinent information at his command concerning any problems; to
carry out the policies and order of the Commission; and to plan,
organize and supervise the year-round recreation program. The
ANNUAL REPORTS — 1965 335
Recreation Commission also receives suggestions from the citizenry
of whom the Commission is really representative and who's desires
it seeks to interpret.
All employees of the Recreation Commission, excepting the
Recreation Director and Secretary are part-time employees. Part-
time employees are hired to instruct and supervise various pro-
grams during the four seasons of the year.
The large number of part-time employees hired during the
year is necessary as it also involves the use of custodians, secre-
taries, and various school personnel. Summer personnel also adds
to the total as it involves mainly college students who work sum-
mers only.
All prospective employees are required to fill out application
forms, making note of their previous experience and education.
This insures the citizenry a recreation program that will provide
for every one the best and most satisfying use of his leisure time.
During the year 1965 a two-day training program was provided
for summer playground employees.
PROPERTIES
The 1965 year-round recreation programs were supervised on
the following properties: 15 playgrounds — 9 tot lots — 15 school
buildings including St. Patrick's — Sacred Heart — Rosary
Academy — St. Luke's — Boston YWCA — Newton YMCA —
MDC Pool — Boston Skating Club — Oakley Count:: Club —
Wal-Lex Rollerway — Randy's Bowl-a-Way — Riverside Bowling
Lanes — and Sammy White's Bowl.
Playgrounds are: Victory Field — Cunniff Tot Lot —

EQUIPMENT LOANED
For the year 1965, an increase on the loaning of Recreation
Equipment was evident. During the summer months our Picnic
Kits serviced various organization on 43 occasions. During the
year other equipment, such as, our P.A. System, Recording Ma-
chine and Records, our Bull Horn, etc., serviced various organiza-
tions on 23 occasions. This service continues to grow each year.
Much thought is given to this inventory towards repairs and the
purchasing of modern equipment to add to the variety which will
further serve our citizenry in this department.

ATTENDANCE
Attendance for the year 1965 reached a new high totalling
213,667, a substantial increase over the good attendance figure of
188,236 for 1964. Expansion of standard and successful programs
in addition to the increase in our nine week summer playground
programs with adequate weather conditions are the main reasons
for the large increase in year-round attendance estimates.
PROGRESS
Progressive steps taken by the Recreation Commission during
the year 1965 were as follows:
1. The year-round programs were expanded.
2. 85 group activities were sponsored in 1965 as against 81
for the year 1964.
3. Fifteen activities during the year increased in terms of
number of sessions held in length of program.
4. Two new facilities at Ridgelawn and Saltonstall were
erected to add to the Town's playground program.
338 TOWN OF WATERTOWN
5. Four new group activities were added to the 1965 pro-
gram.
6. The Playground Orientation and Training Programs were
expanded to provide additional training for our Recrea-
tion Supervisors in the field.
7. Additional office and program equipment improved de-
partmental operations and program functions.
8. The pilot program at the West Housing proved success-
ful for pre-school and older boys and girls who cannot
regularly attend a playground because of distance.
9. The Summer Field Day held at Saltonstall Park was the
best ever with changes and improvements recommended
from the previous year.
10. The experimental Saturday Day Camp for Retarded Chil-
dren conducted in the spring for ten (10) Saturdays
proved beneficial to recommend as full year Saturday
Day Camp between September and June.
11. The boys and girls Winter Basketball Program expansion
over the period of three years now involves 1100 boys
and girls, 86 teams, 442 league games, over a period of
14 weeks. Three years ago there were 42 teams, 170
league games over a 10 week period.
12. The Recreation Department is affiliated with the National
Recreation Association. This provides the Department
with material and information concerning movements,
progress and new programs taking place throughout the
country.
NEEDS
Because of the growth of recreation in Watertown, definite
needs for successful departmental operation have become ap-
parent.
1. Continued development of the year-round program to meet
the ever increasing needs of the entire citizenry.
2. Additional facilities to take care of program expansion.
3. Increased funds to meet the needs.
4. Further development of the Teen-age Program.
5. Additional equipment and supplies.
6. The lack of adequate indoor and outdoor recreation facilities
is an ever concerning point with the Watertown Recreation
Commission. The Commission and Department must be fully
aware of programming covering the ten major areas of rec-
reation, which are; Arts & Crafts, Music, Dancing, Dramatics,
ANNUAL REPORTS — 1965 339
Nature Study, Sports & Games, Hobbies, Camping, Social and
Adult Recreation. Without further study and research and
efficient and proper planning regarding the shortage and
lack of facilities, the development and needed expansion of
the department will be curtailed, indefinitely.
RECOMMENDATIONS
The following steps are recommended:
1. The year-round program for 1966 be further expanded.
2. Further development for the Teen-age Programs, both boys
and girls.
3. Evaluation of the condition and acts of progress of the de-
partment.
4. Close supervision of all activities assuring the citizens of the
Town a safe and enjoyable year-round recreation program.
5. Expanding the volume of equipment to meet the needs.
6. Research, studies, surveys, evaluations, and reports be made
concerning areas and facilities, program, publicity, and pub-
lie relations and other phases of departmental operations.
7. Cooperative efforts be increased throughout other departments
and schools in the Town to insure proper planning and fair
distribution of programming for the welfare, happiness, and
safety of every citizen.
8. The residents of Watertown give serious thoughts and con-
sideration for a Recreational Building.
9. To promote and educate the citizenry of the high value and
protection of open space, particularly our Park Land with
thoughts of increasing the acreage.
10. To investigate the potential value of conducting a survey on
Park and Recreation in our Community including a long range
Master Plan for future reference and guidance to maintain
the pace with the ever fast and changing times. The Com-
munity is responsible to provide the facilities, programs, and
funds, to fulfill the needs of the people to place high value
on the constructive use of leisure time.

REPORT OF THE BOARD OF SELECTMEN
To the Citizens of Watertown:
The Annual Report of the Board of Selectmen for the year
ending December 31, 1965, is respectfully submitted.
In March of 1965, Philip Pane was re-elected to the Board for
a third three year term. John A. Ryan was re-elected Chairman
and Pasquale Sclafani elected Clerk for the year 1965-1966.
Our Administrative Assistant, Edward W. Hagar, and Confi-
dential Secretary Miss Rita M. Powers, were re-appointed.
Attorney Philip F. Grogan was re-appointed Town Counsel and
Attorney Joseph Grassia was appointed his assistant.
Comprehensive details of the business of operating our large
Town are embodied in reports of the various departments.
As in the past, the Town's excellent financial condition is re-
flected by reports of progress elsewhere in this report.
CHARLES RIVER
Due to conditions of and along the Charles River, we initiated
a meeting of leaders of core communities abutting the Charles
River with the goal of a cooperative effort toward resolving some
of the river's problems, such as:
1. Pollution
2. Condition of dams, bridges and river banks
3. Beautification (riverside parks, etc.)
Several such meetings were held here and in other communi-
ties with Cambridge, Newton, Waltham and Watertown which
were attended faithfully by officials from the Metropolitan District
Commission.
Early this year, a special expanded meeting was held for the
purpose of informing interested persons which and in what aspect
groups and agencies are involved in river problems generally and
the Charles River particularly.
In attendance were officials from U.S. Army Corps of Engi-
neers, Metropolitan Area Planning Council, League of Women
Voters, Mass. Water Resources Commission, Norfolk County Ex-
tension Service, Mass. Department of Natural Resources, Metro-
politan District Commission and other representatives, planners,
engineers, highway superintendents, etc. from Cambridge, New-
ton, Waltham, Watertown, Wellesley and Weston.
ANNUAL REPORTS - 1965 341
As a result of this meeting, the original, smaller group may
know to whom to direct its pressures toward solving various as-
pects of our Charles River problems. We have assigned Adminis-
trative Assistant Edward W. Hagar to organize, plan and coordi-
nate these meetings which should continue if we are to make
headway in eliminating offensive odors, etc.
COLLECTIVE BARGAINING
Enactment by the Mass. Legislature of Chapter 763, Acts of
1965, makes mandatory official recognition of local, legally consti-
tuted municipal unions.
We believe that Watertown is the first community in the State
to take this action. Employees of the Cemetery, Highway, Park,
Tree, and Water Departments by election conducted by the Mass.
Labor Relations Commission on March 19, 1965, named Watertown
Municipal Union Local No. 1210 as its official bargaining agent
for all union matters. Here again, Watertown's pioneer spirit
shows through.
Chapter 763 becomes effective February 16, 1966, and since
it is so new much thought must be put into its meanings and
interpretations. All of Watertown's citizens and taxpayers may rest
assured that we will act at all times in the Town's best interests,
as will, we are certain, representatives of local unions who seek
to meet with us on any personnel matters.
PERAMBULATION
Under the Mass. General Laws, the perambulation of the
Town's boundaries must be accomplished every fifth year. We
therefore requested the Town Engineer to act as our agent in
this matter and there is on file a record of perambulation for 1965.
WATER
Because of rusty water conditions in various parts of the
Town, we instructed the Highway Department to lend mappower
and equipment to the Water Department in the replacement of
several water conduits, especially in the East end of Town where
approximately 2,000 feet of pipe were installed. which took about
six months to accomplish.
We met on several occasions with the Water Commissioners
and Superintendent and unanimously recommended that they in-
clude in their 1966 budget sufficient money to make a complete
survey of water construction needs.
342 TOWN OF WATERTOWN
WATERTOWN ARSENAL
As proposed in our article, the 1965 Annual Town Meeting
authorized the appointment of a formal Watertown Arsenal Study
Committee, consisting of the Selectmen, Town Clerk, Town Auditor,
Administrative Assistant to the Selectmen, Veterans' Agent and
one member of the Planning Board to have as its duties and pur-
poses the following:
(a) Investigate possible alternative uses of the Watertown
Arsenal.
(b) Take whatever steps appear possible to influence the
future development of the Watertown Arsenal property
and facilities, in accordance with the community inter-
est.
(c) Jointly with the Watertown Planning Board determine
the relationship between any such alternative uses being
considered and the current Comprehensive Plan of the
Town of Watertown.
(d) Report the results of its investigations to the Town
Meeting, and
(e) Recommend appropriate courses of action to the Town
Meeting.
This Committee elected as its Chairman, Veterans' Agent John
F. Corbett. Many meetings were held, including several with key
personnel at the Mass. Department of Commerce (Divisions of
Development & Community Programs) both in Watertown and at
their offices; with the Governor at his office; with officials of the
General Services Administration; and with the Director and his
staff of the Economic Adjustment Bureau (Department of De-
fense) here and in Washington, D.C.
Every possible avenue has been explored and re-explored to
determine the best means of acquiring that part of the Water-
town Arsenal to be declared excess.
For Special Town Meeting consideration (February 10, 1966)
there is an article in the warrants to authorize the formation of
a Redevelopment Authority to acquire and dispose of the approxi
mate 50 acres involved. We strongly urge affirmative action on this
proposal, since it means a vastly wider spread to our tax base and
a great addition to our business revenue.
ANNUAL REPORTS — 1965 343
We shall continue to keep ourselves fully apprised of any
further development or change in the Watertown Arsenal status in
order to move quickly in any direction which may be of ultimate
benefit to the Town.
Our regular selectmen's meetings were held during the year
and special meetings and hearings were scheduled as the heavy
work-load of Town business dictated. Details of our day-to-day
business may be ascertained from our minutes log.
Again we express our sincere thanks to all Town employees
and to the many public spirited volunteers for their personal
services and efforts in the Town's behalf. We shall continue to
maintain and improve services as reasonably as is consistent with
financial ability.

REPORT OF THE TOWN COUNSEL
The annual report of the office of the Town Counsel for the
calendar year 1965 is herewith respectfully submitted.
During this time the office has disposed of thirty-two claims
against the Town and/or employees, for the most part, consisting
of actions arising out of the use and operation of town owned
vehicles and to a lesser degree, actions arising out of defects in
public ways. New claims added to those pending numbered fifty-
eight, some of which are included in the above dispositions. Work-
men's Compensation claims, which do not reach this office until
assigned for hearing before the Industrial Accident Board and
which were disposed of in that forum numbered three. Claims
successfully prosecuted on behalf of the Town numbered fifteen.
The enactment in 1964 of a new Chapter 10, a wage and
salary plan encompassing for the first time the regulation of hours
of employees thereunder, presented, as such novations invariably
do, many problems not previously encountered. One controversy
arising therefrom, necessitated a hearing before and determination
by the Superior Court and at this writing has been argued before,
but not yet decided by the Supreme Judicial Court of the Com-
monwealth.
A new Zoning By-Law, also enacted in 1964, presented, as such
invariably do, many new problems. One of these necessitated a
hearing before and determination by the Superior Court and has
at this date been entered on the docket of the Supreme Judicial
Court.
In matters concerning the new Zoning By-Law, which in many
cases involves the Town Building By-Law, I have received the
utmost cooperation and invaluable assistance from James P.
Clark, Inspector of Buildings. For this I am deeply grateful.
I wish to express my gratitude to Joseph Grassia, Esquire for
his valuable contribution to the solution of the many problems
confronting the office. His competency and efficiency have been
most reassuring and the burdens have been lessened to no small
degree by his cooperation.
During the past year I have written a number of legal
opinions and have been called upon to draw contracts, easements
and other legal documents. Also I have met with and counseled
ANNUAL REPORTS — 1965 345
various departments and Boards and. employees regarding Town
matters. In all of these I have found a spirit of cooperation and
sincere desire to be of assistance unsurpassed in other fields of
endeavor.
I wish to express my appreciation to the Honorable Board of
Selectmen for the confidence they have placed in me and sincerely
trust that I have merited the same.

346 TOWN OF WATERTOWN
REPORT OF THE TREASURER
For two years now, the Town Treasurer has been filing an
article in the Town Warrant to have the Town Meeting adopt
colors in heraldic terms, as the official colors of the seal of the
Town of Watertown. Finally, in the 1965 Town Meeting, the
heraldic terms were adopted as the official colors of the Town.
I wish to commend a most talented member of our Town, and
a man who has considerable pride in his community: this man is
our fire fighter Frederic J. Milmore, who spelled out the artistic,
heraldic terms. He kept an appointment with the Town Treasurer
in the Town Hall on a cold, wintry, and snowy night in order to
help prepare the article for the Town Meeting, and the unfortu-
nate part of the whole thing was that the Town Treasurer had
nothing in his office to warm the bosom of this fine citizen.
An article has also been placed before the Town Meeting to
have the Town purchase colored tiles of the Seal and Town Hall,
for re-sale by the Town Clerk to the general public. This article
has failed passage as of this date, but it is hoped that the 1966
Town Meeting will become cultural-minded and start something
which should have been accomplished years ago.
For future generations, I wish to record here. that our present
generation seems to lack interest in the great history of our Town,
and has very little interest in civic or cultural aspects of our
community.

AUDITOR'S REPORT
I herewith present the Annual Report of the Financial Transactions
of the Town of Watertown for the year ended December 31, 1965.
The various funds in the hands of the Town Treasurer, including
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 agreement with the
controls in my office.
The balance in the Excess and Deficiency account at the close of
business for the year 1965 is in the amount of Five hundred forty-
three thousand, seven hundred eighty-eight dollars and three cents
($543,788.03) . It is to be noted that this figure at the close of
business last year was in the amount of Three hundred ninety-nine
thousand, nine hundred thirty-four dollars and sixty-three cents
($399,934.63) .
The outstanding debt of the Town of Watertown as of December 31,
1965 is in the amount of Two million, five hundred thirty-five
dollars ($2,535,000.00) . Additional indebtedness in the amount of
One million, six hundred seventy-seven thousand, five hundred dollar
($1,677,500.00) was authorized by the 1965 Town Meeting.
To my staff in particular, I wish to express my appreciation for a
job well done. I also wish to thank the employees of all department
for their excellent cooperation during the year.
Respectfully submitted,
John J. Sheehan,
TOWN AUDITOR
Watertown, Massachusetts, February 2, 1966.
