MARCH 21, 1968
The following resolution was read to the meeting and unanimously
adopted.
RESOLUTION IN RECOGNITION OF THE PUBLIC LIBRARY'S
CENTENNIAL ANNIVERSARY
On January 28, 1868, a special town meeting voted to accept
the profferred gift of a group of citizens of$6,000 for the purchase
of books, and to establish a Free Public Library, and to provide
a place to receive it, and make it useful to the citizens. 'The said
Library shall belong to the Town, and shall be cared for, and enlarged,
as circumstances will permit, by annual votes of the Town in meeting
assembled." A subsequent meeting elected trustees, appropriated
money, and assigned a room in the Town Hall for use of the Library,
which opened for business on March 31. 1869.
From that small beginning grew the Watertown Free Public
Library, one of the leading institutions of its kind in Massachusetts.
While seed money was provided by private subscription, the Watertown
Library has no patron, and has not been substantially endowed. It
owes its growth to the enlightened support of citizens. It is truly
a Public Library, maintained for all the people, by all the people
of the town.
As the Library enters its second century.
BE IT RESOLVED:
That this Town Meeting felicitates the Library on the occasion of
its centenary year.
That this Town Meeting expresses its thanks to the donors ana
citizens who have supported the Library through the years, and
the Trustees, Librarians, and staff who have guided it. That
this Town Meeting recognizes the Free Public Library as in-
stitution of incalculable value to the Town, and reaffirms.the
vote of one hundred years ago that it "shall belong to the Town,
and shall be cared for, and enlarged, as circumstances will
permit, by annual votes of the Town in Meeting assembled."

Mr. Joseph Hopkins
Mr. Francis Lightbody

as Chairman, and John A. Ryan as Clerk. August M. Stiriti was unan-
imously re-appointed Administrative Assistant to the Board of Select-
men. Secretary, June Condon;,and part-time secretary Ruth Devine;
were unanimously re-appointed. The Board also unanimously re-
appointed Philip F. Grogan, Esquire as Town Counsel, and Herbert
0. Berry, Esquire as Assistant Town Counsel.
The purpose of the annual report of the Board of Selectmen is
to help interested citizens understand and evaluate standards of
performance rendered, and to apprise residents of progress made
by their community in an ever-changing world. Watertown has earned
a fine reputation among surrounding communities and the Board
of Selectmen seeks to maintain this reputation by increasing the
high standard of performance by Watertown employees.
Weekly meetings of the Board were held throughout the year,
except for the summer months during which we met bi-weekly. A
number of special meetings were held to consider and act upon matters
of unusual importance.
The numerous routine duties of our office were carried out in
the usual manner and entailed the granting of various licenses,
permits and hearings of similar matters coming within the Jurisdiction
MASSACHUSETTS BAY TRANSIT AUTHORITY
Of particular concern to the governing body of Watertown has
been the ever-increasing deficit of the MBTA. Our Town's share
of this deficit has increased from$278,962.57 to a projected $340,662.10
for 1968.
Public transportation is so vital to the development of our community
that every effort must be made by your town officials to maintain
services, and wherever possible increase these services, without
120 TOWN OF WATERTOWN
undue adverse effect on the Town tax burden. New downtown and
uptown Boston express bus service via the Massachusetts Turnpike
was initiated during 1968, and its tremendous success is exemplary
of the kind of service expansion we urge.
THE BOARD OF PUBLIC WELFARE
The Board of Public Welfare is composed of the Board of Selectmen,
Robert A. Manzelli, Chairman, John A. Ryan, Clerk, and Richard
E. Mastrangelo, who serve to carry out the laws and regulations
of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts pertaining to Public Assistance
in furnishing financial and medical aid to residents of the Town of
Watertown who are determined eligible for such aid.
As a result of the signing by the Governor of Chapter 658 of
the Acts of 1967,this legislation,on July 1, 1968, removed administration
of public assistance programs in this State from the local municipal
level to the State governmental level, and all municipal personnel
administering the various public assistance programs became State
employees and all expense both for administration and assistance
was assumed by the Commonwealth,the State Public Welfare Department.
THE WATERTOWN ARSENAL
Watertown History was made this year when a great number
of meetings with local, state and federal officials culminated in
the passing of title to the Watertown Arsenal site from the United
States to the Town of Watertown for 5.5 million dollars; thus, by
vote of the Special Town Meeting, Watertown acquired ownership
in a 55 acre tract of prime land. The Board of Selectmen, working
with the Watertown Redevelopment Authority and other Town agencies
and officials will endeavor to insure that this valuable property
be developed in the best interest of the Town -- financially as well
as aesthetically.
WATERTOWN SQUARE
A major disappointment in 1968 came at the closing session
of the Annual Town Meeting when a comprehensive traffic project
which would have alleviated the intense congestion in Watertown
Square was approved by a majority of the Town Meeting members,
but did not get the required two-thirds vote necessary to passage.
ANNUAL REPORTS - 1968 121
A fine study with excellent recommendations was made by Bruce
Campbell & Associates, Inc., Consulting Engineers of Boston, and
the burden on the taxpayer for this safety project would have been
substantially reduced through a state grant under the provisions
of Chapter 519 of the Acts of 1967. The Board is quite concerned
about the future of Watertown Square and the retail merchants therein;
we feel this project will greatly assist the area, and have therefore
determined to recommend adoption of an appropriate article to the
1969 Annual Town Meeting.
BOY'S CLUB
After many meetings and reports the Town received permission
to erect a sorely needed Boy's Club in the northeast corner of Saltonstall
Park. Although this club will occupy park land, we feel that it will
be a great asset to the development of the youth in Watertown. Ground
breaking is scheduled for March of 1970.
WOODLAND PROPERTY SITE
The Selectmen, duly authorized, conveyed 'by deed, the property
previously owned and occupied by the Woodland Dairy on Waverley
Avenue, to the Watertown Housing Authority. Construction is now
underway of do 8-story 164 apartment complex for the elderly of
our Town.
WATER CONSTRUCTION COMMITTEE
This committee with an appropriation of $787,000.00 has begun
work for the purpose of replacing, constructing, modernizing or
acquiring water supply and distribution facilities. All of the work
on this project for this year was accomplished by Town forces thereby
effecting sizeable savings to the taxpayers.
DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC WORKS
At the November 5 Election, an event took place that we feel
will be a tremendous asset to the operation of the basic Town services.
It was the overwhelming acceptance by the voters of the Town of
an act passed by the General Court in 1968, establishing in the Town
of Watertown a Board of Public Works exercising the powers of
certain other departments and Town officials. Under this act the
122 TOWN OF WATERTO WN
Board of Selectmen, acting as a Board of Public Works, has responsi-
bility for, and supervision of the following departments and inspectors:
the Highway Department, the Water Department, the Engineering
Department, the Park Department, the Tree and Moth Department,
the Cemetery Department, the Inspector of Buildings, the Wire De-
partment, the Sealer of Weights and Measures and the Plumbing
and Gas Inspector;also the responsibility forthe operation, maintenance
and repair of public buildings other than school buildings.
Upon the acceptance of said Act the office of Tree Warden, Park
Commissioners and Water Commissioners were abolished.
We feel that this Department will greatly streamline and consolidate
our Town services thereby effecting a more efficient and flexible
operation.
COLLECTIVE BARGAINING
Pursuant to statutes authorizing, the Board appointed a collective
bargaining unit to bargain with Town employees on pay scales and
working conditions. Every effort is being made to insure that our
employees continue to receive wages commensurate with their fine
work, while keeping a realistic view on the Town's tax rate.
In concluding this report, we would like to express our sincere
appreciation to all Department Heads, various Boards, Commissions,
Trustees, 'down Officials and Committees who have contributed their
talents to Town affairs and to each memberof our staff for the efficient
and dedicated service they have rendered in our behalf, in behalf
of every citizen of the Town of Watertown.

Town owned trees are also sprayed several times during the
spraying season.
Ninety-four decayed and injured trees have been removed, nineteen

I wish to express my appreciation to the Honorable Board of
Selectmen for their co-operation during the year.
I also wish to thank the various Town Departments who have
assisted me in any way this year.
Sincerely,

PURCHASING DEPARTMENT
The Honorable Board of Selectmen
Watertown, Massachusetts
Gentlemen:
This is the report of the Purchasing Department for the year 1968.
During the year a total of 7362 orders were processed and issued.
This included 3414 orders for the School Department. There was an in-
crease of 614 School Orders processed over 1967, mainly because of
the Federal Program.
There was a total of 488 sealed bids, which included 2846 major
items used by all departments.
During 1968 this department also processed the orders for material
as used by the Water Construction Committee.
Once again the Revolving Fund proved its worth by having the nec-
essary funds to purchase both scarce and standard items at the proper
time.
I wish to express my appreciation to the Honorable Board of Select-
men and the heads of all departments for their cooperation.
Respectfully submitted,

BOARD OF ASSESSORS
We again proudly report an increase in our overall valuation reach-
ing a n e w h i g h o f both r e a l a n d personal property in the amount of
$90,581,575.00. The increased valuation is reflected mostly in new con-
struction although the Board has continued to make adjustments in val-
uation in order to effect equalization.
Unlike 1967, we, fortunately, were not called upon to defend values
in the Appellate Tax Board although there are several cases pending
before the Board and the Supreme Court. It becomes increasingly more
apparent that tax appeals will occupy much of the Board's time.
We are concerned with spiralling municipal costs of government, with
the financial pinch facing the Commonwealth, with the serious depletion
of the local aid fund, with the apparent necessity of new school building
construction, and recognize the utmost urgency of wide scale general
tax reform. It is hoped that the State Commission charged with this
responsibility will find a more equitable method of meeting these needs.
We simply can no longer rely so heavily on the local real estate tax.
Our appreciation to the citizens of the Town for their many expres-
sions of confidence in our efforts and especially to the girls in our
office, the Town Counsel, the Engineering staff, the Auditor, Collector,
Treasurer, and Building Department staff without whose assistance our
work could not be accomplished, is most gratefully acknowledged.

elected to the Board for a three year term. G. Jack Zollo was reelected
as Chairman and Vahan J.Khachadoorianas Secretary for the year 1968-
69. Board members were also given assignments to other committees
which are of vital concern to the community's growth and development.
Paul H. Krueger will continue to serve as the Board's representa-
tive to the Watertown Redevelopment Authority; Robert D.Marshall re-
mains as the Board's representative to the Board of Appeals. New com-
mittee appointments are: Francis J. Maloney serving on the Library

mittee, filling the vacancy of G. Jack Zollo who had resigned. Vahan J.
Khachadoorian was appointed as Chairman to the Citizens Coordinating

During 1968, the Board succeeded in completing a study related to
the B. F. Goodrich Site, a traffic study of the Walnut and Arsenal Street
Areas, as well as additional studies concerned with the implementation
of the Comprehensive Plan.
Maintaining an interest in the Arsenal Site, the Board directed their
consultant to review the preliminary plans proposed by the Redevelop-
ment Authority of the Arsenal Site.
As a conclusion to the Board's 1968 program, two important studies
are presently being undertaken: (1) the relocation of the present Town
Barn Site to another area within the community, and(2) the feasibility
of using a portion of the present East Junior High School as a future

Park Department
In compliance with the general laws of the Town of Watertown, I
hereby submit my report for the year ending December 31, 1968.
The Park Department will always consider the year 1968 as a time
of deep sorrow and loss due to the sudden death of its Superintendent,
Joseph A. Dwyer, on August 10th. Mr. Dwyer had worked for the Town
for thirty years and was respected and liked by all who knew him,
especially those who considered it their good fortune to have worked
directly under his supervision. The Park Department will never be
quite the same, Joe's easy manner and ready smile will be sorely
missed.
The construction of Coolidge Playground.was completed this year
and the children were able to enjoy the wading pool as well as the base-
ball field. Basketball backboards and playground equipment have been
ordered for this area but due to late completion of the field will not
be installed until the spring of 1969.
Much to the delight of parents living in the Lowell School area the
basketball court was resurfaced this year. A new tennis court roller
was purchased for Victory Field and the fences at Bemis and Lowell
Playgrounds painted.
On November 5th the Department of Public Works was voted into
effect by a majority vote and as of that date the Board of Park Commis-
sioners ceased to exist. The Park Department would like to extend
their appreciation to Messrs. Palladino, Santamaria, and Manning for
their unstinted efforts in directing and guiding the department while in
office. The Town should be proud of these men who gave of their time
and talents always showing interestand concernforthe people of Water-
town.
While in office the Board of Park Commissioners appointed James
Ryan as Acting Superintendent of Parks pending a Civil Service exami-
nation. Mr. Ryan would like to thankthe Park Commissioners for their
faith in his ability to take charge of the department and all the Park
Department employees for their full cooperation since the death of Mr.
Dwyer.
The Park Department would like to extend theirthanks t) the Water,

Civil Defense
The Civil Defense System in this country is set up primarily as a
means of protecting and saving lives in time of natural or man made
disaster. Thus, the past year (1968) has been spent in furthering and
expanding the overall program of Civil Defense in Watertown.
The Community Fallout Shelter Plan is the foundation of local emer-
gency readiness and in recognition, this Agency has stocked 7,232 li-
censed spaces this year with emergency food, medical, sanitation and
radiological supplies, at a cost to the Federal Government of $11,859.35.
This addition brings Watertown's total to 12,631 spaces stocked of the
32,647 spaces that have been surveyed and approved as shelter areas.
Watertown presently has 4,392 private dwellings that have been desig-
nated as adequate fallout shelters under the Home Fallout Shelter Pro-
tection Survey conducted by the Bureau of Census.
We have three Federally stocked Civil Defense Emergency First
Aid Stations located at Watertown's three fire stations. The Attack
Warning System, which was installed in 1951, consists of 6 electron-
ically controlled sounding devices located at key points throughout the
Town and are tested each week.
On July 10th the Civil Defense Agency, in conjunction with Belmont
and the Mount Auburn Hospital, engaged in an extensive disaster drill.
Held at the Payson Park School in Belmont, the exercise assumed that
a B-52 aircraft crashed into the school and surrounding dwellings.
Drills such as this enable Civil Defense to test its readiness in emer-
gencies and also assures accreditation by the Federal Government of
the Mount Auburn Hospital.
From March 16th to the 23rd a flooding situation existed in Water-
town. This Agency was fortunate to acquire 8,000 sand bags for emer-
gency use. Water marker stakes were placed and recorded every two
hours, cellars were pumped and sand bags filled and distributed to
critical areas. In all, over 1,000 volunteer hours were logged during
this period of flooding.
Believing in the adage that"Knowledge Replaces Fear", this Agency
has instituted an active training program. Courses held this year were:
Shelter Management, from which 11 citizens graduated and will be
assigned to take charge of our local shelters; Radiological Monitoring
with 14 graduates; Medical Self-Help and Personal and Family Survival
were inserted into the High School curriculum, the former taught 500
students, the latter 175.
ANNUAL REPORTS - 1968 137
The Auxiliary Fire Department, currently numbering 26 men, sent
members to Basic and Light Duty Rescue and Fire Training Schools at
the Bradley Palmer State Park Training School in Topsfield. The
Auxiliary is becoming increasingly active, having its own fire station
at the Watertown Arsenal which is operated four nights a week, a Rescue
Truck and Fire Engine. This unit answered 31 fire responses and con-
tributed 2,719 man hours during 1968.
The Auxiliary Police Department, comprising 55 men,.has been ex-
tremely active) having trained men readily available for holiday and
weekend traffic, parades, field events and special duties of varied
types. These men are continually being trained in police procedure,
including proper weapon maintenance and use, patrol, search and sei-
zure, traffic control, rescue, first aid, etc. They are used to augment
the regular police force during emergencies and are supplied by Civil
Defense with proper police equipment, uniforms, two police cruisers
plus a new transceiver. This department has contributed over 3,000
man hours during 1968.
Radio drills are held monthly with State and Federal authorities,
originating from our Emergency Control Center, by the Communica-
tions Division, Radio Amateur Civil Emergency Service (RACES). New
members are urgently needed to volunteer for this group.
National Air Warning Tests were held in May and December and an
Emergency Operations Simulation Training Program to prepare and co-
ordinate all departments of the town in procedures to follow in case of
nuclear attack or disaster of any type was implemented December 18th.,
to be completed on January 21, 1969.
Civil Defense received 3 surplus trucks from H. P. Hood Company
and 25 hospital beds from the Metropolitan TB Hospital at no cost to
the town.
This Agency has received partial reimbursement under Federal
Contributions for Personnel and Administrative Expenses this year
amounting to a total of $2,473.24. This has been turned over to the
E &D Town Account.
The amount of Surplus Material acquired through the Commonwealth
of Massachusetts, State Agency for Surplus Property, in the year 1968
totals $19,259.52 (Federal Acquisition Cost). This was purchased at a
cost to the Town of Watertown of $950.62. Since 1957, Civil Defense
has obtained a total of $162,122.08 of surplus material through this
program at a total cost of only $6,661.27.

Town Physician
In the performance of my duties as Medical Advisor and Physician
for the Town of Watertown, Massachusetts, I found 1968 to be a very
busy and rewarxWyear. By carefully scheduling my time, I was at
liberty to devote my services and cooperation to the requirements of
the Board of Selectmen and the various Department Heads of the Town.
Paramount in my mind*is the health and welfare of all our Town
Employees. Through effective and diligent treatment of their many
illnesses and unfortunate accidents, I am proud to say that my physical
therapy and rehabilitation department greatly accelerated their re-
covery and therefore resulted in considerable reduction in days lost
from work in the Town.
It was a successful year.

ANNUAL REPORTS - 1968 139
Veterans' Services
In last year's report, we predicted that the escalating cost of finan-
cial assistance to needy veterans and dependents would compel some
action in the direction of the State or Federal government taking over
the administration and fluxling of Veterans' Services programs. All
signs pointed to at least a start being made through legislation in the
1968 session. The problems unearthed in the Welfare takeover, effec-
tive July 1, 1968, however, prompted a "go-slow"attitude in this area,
and bills calling for State assumption of Veterans' Services were never
enacted. Even locally, the cutting back of allocations from the local
aid fund because of the skyrocketing cost of welfare, has made officials
wonder if relinquishing local control over programs that will be fi-
nanced by local' assessments, directly or indirectly, is a good idea.
The delay in resolving the issue has had no effect on the upward
trend of expenditures in the Watertown Veterans' Services Department,
which, for the past three years,*have been rising at the rate of twenty
per cent per year. Some of this is due to the increasing veteran pop-
ulation, more to aging of the World War H group (our largest category),
but the principal factor is still the spiralling cost of medical care.
Seldom is a hospital bill for less than $500.00 seen, and bills in excess
of$2,000.00 are not uncommon.
Just a few years ago the bulk of our cases involved supplementing
inadequate Social Security or pension payments for elderly veterans
and widows. While we still have a number of these, the most costly
direct aid (as distinguished from medical) problems are younger family
types who are out of work due to non-job-related illnesses or injuries.
In 1968, another category requiring the expenditure of nearly $12,000.00
was labor disputes, particularly the lengthy one involving the telephone
company.
Society's determination that there shall be no second class citizens
carries wft it a sizable price tag.

Council For The Aging
What do older adults need? What types of services can be developed
to help meet their needs? The purpose of the Council For The Aging
is to become involved in theseproblems and to arrive at solutions which
meet the needs and stimulate the development of new services. It is
up to us as interested citizens to improve the older adults functioning,
add meaning to life and achieve a maximum realization of his potential.
Because of the tremendous growth inthis age group, seemingly over-
whelming problems and frustrating situations constantly arise. Working
in cooperation with other departments of the town, most of these burdens
are lightened. Mutual supported aspects of related services need to be
unified in one project. Knowing where to go with a specific need is a
problem for many older citizens. By the time they are referred to
several organizations or agencies, the older adult may feel that the
service is not worth the energy expended. Thus a Referral and Infor-
mation Center, staffed by a counselor, sensitive to the needs of the
elderly, is the primary objective of this Council and will be vigorously
pursued in the coming year.
The past year was very successful in regard to the many trips,
Christmas Party, and other activities enjoyed by our senior citizens.
On behalf of the various organizations who participated in these enjoy-
able outings, this Council thanks the citizens of Watertown.

Inspector of Animals
To the Board of Selectmen
A total of 147 animals in Watertown were examined and quarantined
for a ten day period for biting persons in the past year.
The head of one animal was sent to the Wasserman Laboratory in
Jamaica Plain for examination of the brain for evidence of Rabies. It
was negative.
Again I stress the fact that although there were no cases of the dis-
ease in Watertown we must always be on the alert for any outbreak due
to its presence in wild life and bats. A continuation of the anti-rabies
clinic with as much attendant publicity is of great importance.
I wish to extend my appreciation to Dr. Murray and the staff of the
Board of Health for their great help and cooperation in my work. I
also wish to thank the Dog Officer and the police.

WATER COMMISSIONERS
The Annual Report of the Board of Water Commissioners for the
year ending December 31, 1968, is respectfully submitted:
In March, 1968, Mr. Joseph C. Leah was elected to the Board for
a term of one year. Mr. Leo D. Sullivan, Jr. was re-elected for a
three year term. Mr. T. Thomas D'Onofrio continued in his elected
capacity, thus tilling out the three man Board. Mr. Leah was elected
Chairman of the Board at the organizational meeting held March 5,
1968.
The Board met with the Water Construction Committee on numerous
occasions and it was agreed that four men from the Water Department
would work on the Water Construction Program, to help with the-instal-
lation of new water mains throughout the Town. The Water Department,
with the help of the Water Construction Committee, made a connection
between the Intermediate High Service to the Southern High Service on
Whitney Hill by installing a new connection across Orchard Street from
George Street to Lawrence Street, thus changing the pressure on the
Hill from 27 pounds to 59 pounds.
In 1968, the Hersey Remote Reading Device was introduced to the
Consumers of, the Town. Registers can now be placed on outside walls
of homes or commercial buildings, eliminating the need of the meter
reader to enter the premises. A number of these devices have already
been installed.
The Act authorizing the Town of Watertown to establish a Board of
Public Works was voted upon and passed November 5, 1968. This Act
eliminated the need of the Board of Water Commissioners, therefore,
making this their final report.
We wish to thank the employees of the Department for their effort
in maintaining the water system throughout the year. We also wish to
thank the Citizens of the Town for electing this Board of Water Com-
missioners, and feel it has been an honor to serve them.

Town Counsel
The annual report of the office of the Town Counsel for the year 1968
is herewith respectfully submitted.
During the past year 53 cases have been received by the office,
13 of which involve claims for injuries suffered by alleged defects in
public ways. These claims fortunately appear to be on the decrease
and it is hoped they will continue in this direction. The investigations
of these claims by the highway department, engineering department and
Police are excellent and place the Town in an advantageous.position in
the trial of these cases. No city or town can wholly eliminate these
claims but we are adopting preventive measures which will insure in
time their minimum.
Claims arisi,.6 out of care afforded indigent persons by various
hospitals munbering seven, have been disposed of andthese claims for-
tunately are now the problem of the State.
Two appellate Tax Board cases are now in the Supreme Judicial
Court and eight cases are' now pending in the Superior Court. In con-
nection with these and other cases in the District Court it has been
necessary to appear in Court on motions, conciliations, demurrers and
trials on numerous occasions.
In addition to the above the office has been called upon for opinions
in connection with collective bargaining contracts procedures andprob-
lems arising thereunder and consulted with various boards and com-
mittees relative to various matters within their jurisdiction.
In the above I have again been-greatly assisted by Herbert C. Berry,
Esquire who has always been most cooperative and whose judgement
and experience have been invaluable to me and the office.
I again wish to express my appreciation to the Honorable.Board of
Selectmen for their confidence,and cooperation and to Mr. Stiriti, the
Administrative Assistant and Mrs. Condon and Mrs. Devine for their
thoughtfulness and consideration throughout the year.

Redevelopment Authority
1968 was a year of accomplishment for the Watertown Redevelopment
Authority; a year in which significant first steps were taken by the
Authority to insure a planned, financially rewarding development
of the former Arsenal Site.
In February the Town and the General Services Administration
completed final negotiations to arrive at a 5.5 million dollar sales
price for the former Arsenal. This representeda reduction of $500,000
from the original sales price established by the General Service
administration.
At a special Town meeting in May, the Town authorized a 6.3
million dollar bond issue to undertake the development of the Arsenal
as an Office Industrial Park. Between May and August, when the
land was actually purchased from the General Service Administration,
the Authority's Planning Consultants prepared for submission to
the Commonwealth of Massachusetts an application for State financial
assistance to carry out the Urban Renewal Project.
On August 31, 1968 the State approved the application for Urban
Renewal assistance, authorizing the Authority to proceed to develop
the site in accordance with the provisions of the Urban Renewal
Plan.
Immediately, the Authority began a program of temporary leasing
of storage space in the old Arsenal facilities in order to secure an
income to meet operating expenses; at the end of December, 1968
the Authority had received more than $20,000 from this operation
and was able to project an additional $100,000 income from 1969.
In addition, the Authority entered several contracts with Consultants
for evaluating Cranes and electrical equipment which will be sold
in 1969.
In October the Authority began a program of systematic salvaging
of the old structures through contract with a private firm. A yield
of $12,500 was realized from the first building.
Building 34, contaminated by radioactive material was decontaminated
by the Authority in December of this year and was also placed on
the temporary leasing inventory.
ANNUAL REPORTS - 1968 153
The actions listed above were designed to produce a self-sustaining
income for the Authority, and in 1969 will produce enough income
to sufficiently cover all operating expenses of the Authority short
of actual demolition, project improvements, and construction.
In its relationship with the Commonwealth, the Authority has
met all its obligations. The Authority has completed through its
consultants a Land Use and Marketability Study, a Re-Use Appraisal,
a Demolition Report, and other studies needed to supplement the
Urban Renewal Plan.
During the year the Authority added an Executive Director and
a Secretary as staff members and a Consultant to evaluate and oversee
salvage operations.
The Authority, in the latter part of the year, met with several
prospective developers interested in acquiring the entire site for
development as an office industrialpark. Initially, Polaroid Corporation
dominated the field and the immensity of this firm had a discouraging
effect on competing developers. Accordingly, when Polaroid withdrew
from contention in November, a void was left that has slowly been
filling since. Informal meetings between the Authority and new
developers have produced a mutual understanding of the development
probabilities of the site and it is anticipated that a developer will
' be selected in 1969.
This report commenced with the statement that 1968 was a year
of accomplishment for the Authority. On the one hand it has met
its obligations to the Commonwealth to obtain approval of an Urban
Renewal Project for Watertown; and on the other hand, the Authority
has been able to pay its own way through programs of temporary
leasing and salvage.
1969 presents even a more optimistic picture in terms of project
financing and actual work accomplishments such as demolition, con-
struction of sewer, water-systems and street tgork. Also, reasonable
projection of events and time would indicate that within a four to
five year period development will be completed on the former Arsenal
Site and that the Town will realize the financial and other benefits
from the development.

BOARD OF HEALTH
The Board of Health respectfully submits the report of the Health
Officer and Director as the Annual Report of the Health Department
for the year ending December 31, 1968.
Regular monthly meetings were held in compliance with the Town
By-Laws and special meetings were held when certain issues indicated
particular consideration.
Public Health units with a positive attitude toward the delivery
of health services to the people they serve are confronted with a
constantly expanding workload.
During the fall of 1968 the United Slates Food and Drug Administration
permitted manufacture and sale of a mumps vaccine. The Health
Department held its first mumps vaccine cliniq for all 7th, 8th and
9th grade students in Watertown during the fall and winter of 1968.
An annual mumps immunization clinic will now be held by the Health
Department
The Board of Health and the Health Department became responsible
for this enforcement of 'Mules and Regulations Relative to Retail
Food Establishments." The above named Rules and Regulations were
adopted as a statewide Code by the Massachusetts Department of
Public Health in 1968 under authority given it under Chapter 94
Section 305A of the General Laws of Massachusetts. This Code
consists of 20 pages of Rules and Regulations and provides for the
annual registration of every 'Retail Food Establishment," defined
as 'Lan establishment in which food is sold, processed or prepared
for sale directly to the consumer other than an Eating and Drinking
Establishment."
Thus the Board of Health is confronted with a workload that has
been increasing annually for the last decade -and which will continue
to do so in the foreseeable future. This increased workload has
been handled successfully so far despite a decreasing budget-for
services. Salaries, particularly in the administrative area of Public
Health, are inexcusably inadequate.
With some newly authorized or legislated services still to be
implemented it is quite possible that the day of asking the impossible
has already arrived.
ANNUAL REPORTS - 1968 155
The Board wishes to Join the Health Director in extending thanks
and appreciation to the Health Department personnel under its juris-
diction for the cooperation extended during the past year.
We wish to extend our gratitude to the various other departments,
elected Town officials, both of Watertown and other communities,
and voluntary agencies as well as private citizens who were so generous
in their cooperation throughout the year.
The Board of Health notes with regret the retirement of Miss
Alice Farnham after thirty-five (35) years of faithful service to
the Town, and to Mr. Edward L. Maurer who retired after twenty-
eight(28) years of faithful service.

REPORT OF THE HEALTH OFFICER
To the Board of Health:
Gentlemen:
I herewith submit the report for the year ending December 31, 1968.
It is difficult for most people to understand prevention. In fact,
It is often difficult to explain it.
How can one explain that which does not happen? There was
no epidemic, so what is there to explain? There was no permanent
disability following the stroke, so what is there to explain? The
baby was born with no defects, so what is there to explain? The
dog wasn't rabid. It wasn't a strep throat. The cancer was prevented.
The food was safe. The water was potable. Nothing happened -
so what is there to explain?
All of this is a way of saying that nothing damaging to health
happened because many persons in a variety of health professions
performed many services to keep damaging things from happening.
They prevented them entirely, alleviated them, or found that the
treatment was not needed.
When health impairments or adverse health conditions affect
large numbers of persons, then we say that the public is affected.
It is then that prevention or alleviation of impairments and adverse
conditions become the sphere of action of public health personnel.
In this annual report we are attempting to show that your state
of health is important not only to you, but to the city and state in
which you live, and to your life itself-the "good life,"the comfortable
satisting life that We all seek.
In fact, we are going a step beyond this and attempting to show
that this Health Department came into being as-the need for services
to protect the public was noted. Since there was no one to provide
the needed services, someone was employed, and finally these persons,
each of whom provided a preventive service to guard the health of
citizens, were combined into a single entity -a health department.
Today there are many more health related problems, and there
are many more public health professions attempting to meet the
community needs for public health services, and dedicatedto improving
ANNUAL REPORTS 1968 157
or maintaining the good, healthy life for you, your family, and your
friends and neighbors.
Prevention of disease, death, and disability is important. It-helps
reduce absenteeism in business and industry. It reduces the costs
of medical and hospital care. It relieves suffering. It increases
the average daily attendance in schools and universities. The list
could go on and on.
If these things are so, and studies show that they are, then why
Is the concept of prevention so difficult? Why is it so much more
difficult to get appropriations for prevention than for medical and
nursing care and treatment?
Quite frankly, we do not know, but we are dedicated to the premise
that we must keep trying to prevent disease, death, and disability -
to help people help themselves in matters affecting their health,
which in turn so definitely affect their quest for the good life.

VACCINATION ASSISTANCE PROGRAM
I am happy to report that up to this date, I have found no babies
or older children who are unimmunized; except for the very young
infants, and in these cases, plans have been made for their future
medical care. Some of the older children are a little behind in the
matter of boosters, but this was usually a matter of oversight, rather
than intent, and I'm sure this will be corrected in the near future.
In all cases, except a few, the project has been well received;
in many cases, the parent stating how pleased they were, that the
town was taking an interest in their children's well-being.
Many mothers have expressed interest in the 'mumps vaccine, "
especially those of older children. They are inquiring about the
future plans for distribution in the town. They particularly want
to know about older children, who are already beyond the seventh
grade level. I have told them to wait until they receive notice from
the schools, and direct their enquiries to either the school or the
Board of Health.
I have revisited the city halls of Waltham and Cambridge and
obtained additional information and I shall continue to make the
home visits until the project is finished for the year.
Total families visited and interviewed including information of
the immunization status of all children and parents since the activities
of the Home Visit Program to determine the immunization status
of newborn infants and their families in June, 1968 is 315.

ANNUAL REPORTS - 1968 163
This year through the efforts of Dr. Murray and the Board of Health
the Sanitarians attended Massachusetts Bay Community College for the
Rehabilitation Specialists Program in the field of Housing. This in-
service training keeps the department up to date in matters concerting
environmental sanitation.
The Commonwealth of Massachusetts Civil Defense Agency awarded to
Joseph J. DiVico in 1968 a Certificate of Graduation in recognition of
satisfactory completion of the training course for Radiological Mon-
itors.
In addition, the President of the Massachusetts Association of Sani-
tarians, Mr. William Hurley, R.S. appointed Joseph J. DiVico to the
Public Relations Committee of the Association, and Joseph D. O'Leary
was appointed Public Relations Coordinator.
This year much time was consumed with miscellaneous activities.
This, we believe, was due to the public becoming more cognizant of
public health activities. Thus in 1969 care will be taken to focus more
time on essential routine inspections.

MOSQUITO CONTROL IN WATERTOWN IN"1968
The East Middlesex Mosquito Control Project experienced a routine
and rather trouble free season in Watertown in 1968. This was charac-
teristic of the easternpartof the district. Quite in contrast, the western
towns had a great deal of trouble this year. Watertown seemed to be
out of range of mosquito flights from the west
There were veryfewmosquitocomplaints from Wa",,L"I_,. However,
two were received from the Arlington-Grove Street vicinity and no
mosquito sources were found. Aboutthis time the catch basin spray men
were reporting lots of adult mosquitoes flying out of the basins as they
were being sosayed. In dry weather this may be an indication of mos-
quito breeding in stagnant drains connecting to catch basins. The very
heavy pour of rain on August 7th may have cleared out such a situation.
Catch basins were routinely sprayed three times beginning on July
3rd, July 25th and August 22nd. Inspection and spraying of surface
water mosquito sources, did not require as much material as in aver-
age years. There was no fogging and no aerial spraying in Wst,,k%,r:.,.
The insecticides used were mainly Baytex for catch basin spraying and
Abate, fuel oil or pyrethrum for surface water mosquito sources.

REPORT OF PUBLIC HEALTH PHYSICIAN
During the past year I continued to perform my duties as Public Health
Physician of Watertown.
I have continued my visitations to the Watertown Parochial Schools and
and consulted on specific medical and epidermiological questions for the
school principals.
We have utilized annual physical examinations again as a framework for
a Preventive Medicine approach to the health and well-being of our
children.
The immunization program for school children and selected members
of our adult community, e.g., police, fire and public works have also
been continued.
I am in the process of personally evaluating all positive tests and per-
forming more specific testing and evaluating when indicated.
I have continued to review pronouncements from the State Department
of Public Health and the United States Public Health Service in regard
to immunization and Preventive Medicine policies.
250 key employees were given Hong Kong Flu shots in a special clinic.
A preventive program for mumps has also been initiated.
ANNUAL REPORTS - 1968 169
REPORT OF INSPECTOR OF ANIMALS
A total of 147 animals in Watertown were examined and quarantined
for a ten-day period for biting persons in the past year.
The head of one animal was sent to the *ftsserman Laboratory in
Jamaica Plain for examination of the brain for evidence of Rabies. It
was negative.
Again I stress the fact that although there were no cases of the disease
in Watertown we must always be on the alert for ary outbreak due to
its presence in wild life and bats. A continuation of the anti-rabies
clinic with as much attendant publicity is of great importance.
I wish to extend ay appreciation to Dr. Murray and the staff of the
Board of Health for their great help and cooperation in my work. I
also wish to thank the Dog Officer and the Police.
The Health Director.during 1968 participated in the Public Health
effort on a statewide level as a member of the executive Committee of
the Massachusetts Health Officers Association and as a member of the
legislative committees of the Massachusetts Public Health Association
and the Massachusetts Health Council, Inc.

The annual report is respectfully submitted covering the department's
progress, development, and services extended for the year ending
December 31, 1968.
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; constructive use of leisure time; oppor-
tunities for self-expression and relaxation; and contributions toward
character growth, social adjustment and good citizenship, these objec-
tives of the Commission are aimed in providing a variety of activi-
ties for all ages within the four distinct seasons of the year.
ORGANIZATION
The Watertown Recreation Commission is composed of seven mem-
bers, four which are permanent. The other three are appointed by the
Selectmen. The four permanent members include the Superintendent
of Schools, Chief of Police, Head Librarianand Superintendent of Parks.
The Recreation Director is appointed by the Commission.

2. Other members
ANNUAL REPORTS - 1968 171
The members are responsible for the overall function of the depart-
ment in providing legal authorization for the community to furnish
recreation services as permitted by local government; and selected
managing authority. The job of the Recreation Director is to,advise
the board; to bring to the attention of the board all the pertinent In-
formation at his command concerning any problems; to carry out the
policies and order of the Commission;and toplan, organize, and super-
vise the year-round recreation program. The Recreation Commission
also receives suggestions from the citizenry of whom the Commission
Is really representative and who's desires it seeks to
All employees of the Recreation Commission, excepting the Recrea-
tion Director and Secretary are part-time employees. Part-time em-
ployees are hired to instruct and supervise various programs during
the four seasons of the year.
The large munber of part-time employees hired during the year
is necessary as it also involves the use of custodians, secretaries,
and various school personnel. Summer personnel also adds to the total
as it involves mainly college students who work summers only.
All prospective employees are required to fill outapplicatdon forms,
making note of their previous experience and education. This insures
the citizenry a recreation program that will provide for everyone the
best and most satisWng use of his leisure time.
During the year 1968 a two-day training program was provided for
summer playground employees.
PROPERTIES
The 1968 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,
Newton YMCA, NDC Pool,. Boston Skating Club, Wallex Rolleraway,
and Cambridge YWCA;

EQUIPMENT LOANED
During the year equipment, such as, our P.A. System, Recording
Machine and records, Bull Horn, etc. serviced various organizations
on a number of occasions. This service continues to grow each year.
Much thought is given to this inventory towards repairs and the pur-
chasing of modern equipment to add to the variety which will further
serve our citizenry in this department. The department still provides
the popular service for use of family recreation picnic kit rentals dur-
ing the summer months.
Attendance for the year 1968 reached a total of 154,666, a small
decrease over the good attendance figure of 155,052 for 1967. These
figures would be much higher if the formula for taking summer play-
ground attendance was maintained. (The new system involves no mul-
tiple recordings which decreases the summer attendance at an esti-
mated 50,000 persons.)
Below is a comparative accumulation on activities and attendance

ANNUAL REPORTS - 1968 173
Overall between September and June, a healthy increase in partici-
pation was recorded. Our summer program, mainly due to adverse
weather conditions, recorded a 1500o drop in attendance. Yet, on a com-
parative year-round basis our total attendance for the year was only
minus of a total of 154,666 - 386 persons. Our activity breakdown was
equal 163. Based on department's records we would have to conclude
that 1968 was a very productive and successful year.

and members of the Recreation Commission, to the Park Department,
School Department, Board of Selectmen, Town Officials, Department
Heads, and the local newspapers for their helpful assistance and coop-

appreciation to all recreation personnel for their outstanding services
to the department's aims during the year 1968 with particular thanks
to both Assistant Directors, John J. Mantenuto and Mary Mahoney. I
would like to thank the citizens of Watertown, without whose help such

188 TOWN OF WATERTOWN
Wire Department
Honorable Board of Public Works
Administration Building
Watertown, Massachusetts
Gentlemen:
The annual report of the Wire Department for the year ending
December 31, 1968 is submitted herewith:
INSPECTIONS
Six hundred and sixty-three (663) permits for wii ing and fixture
installations and five 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 (2800) individual calls. Receipts for permits in the amount
of five hundred and twenty-four dollars ($524.00) was taken in and
turned over to the Town Treasurer.
MAINTENANCE
The regular. recurrent maintenance work for repairing, testing,
oiling and cleaning of our Fire Alarm, Police and Traffic.light equipment
was performed. Also repairs on all Town owned electrical equipment
In buildings were made whenever we were able to do so. The supervision
of street lighting was given much time and many corrections'made
to better our lighting conditions. Also the C. D. Signal system has
been maintained and many special lighting programs carried out, such
as, Christmas lighting and recreation lighting.
NEW CONSTRUCTION
The Wire Department has run new aerial cable supported by
messenger cable on Lexington Street, from Main Street to Belmont
Street, also on Common Street from Spring Street to the Belmont
line for Fire Alarm and Police Signals. We have installed speakers
in Fire Alarm Headquarters and in all three Fire Stations and ran
the necessary conductors for the new vocalarm to operators between
these points.
Several new electrical outlets have been installed in all three
fire stations, the police station and in several of our school buildings.
ANNUAL REPORTS - 1968 189
We installed the electric service and pump in calgon pit at North
Beacon and Brooks Street for the Water Department.
DAMAGE TO TOWN PROPERTY
We had five of our traffic light posts and underground pedestals
struck and damaged by motor vehicles to the extent of$839.40 and
a report of these accidents and costs were forwarded to the Town
Counsel for collection of damages.
FIRE ALARM HEADQUARTERS
This Division is on a 24 hour a day basis and handled 237 alarms
of fire from boxes pulled on the street; 134 alarms of fire received
by telephone; 2860 alarms received over our mutual aid circuits
and 20 alarms of fire received over A.D.T. circuits.
The following tests were made by operators: Mutual Aid(4330),
Auxiliary Generator (104), daily circuit test (5175). The operators
also transmit"No Schoor'signal s;admit Officials into the Administration
Building after hours and contact Wire Departmentpersonnel after hours
for emergency work on Fire Alarm, Police and Traffic light breakdowns.
One operator is on duty during an eight hour shift and the Fire
Alarm Headquarters is an isolated room in the basement of the
Administration Building, which is vacated at night, on holidays and
over the weekends, leaving the operator helpless if stricken by a
sudden attack or seizure. This situation prompted the recent survey
by the National Board of Fire Underwriters to recommend a two-man
shift and the shifting of the P.B.X. telephone board and the two-way
radio operator from Fire Headquarters to Fire Alarm Headquarters
and putting the personnel under the supervision of the Fire Department,
which I strongly recommend for the safety of the public and the
safety of the operators and I am happy to state that a move is now
under way to accomplish this change.
I wish to express my appreciation to the Honorable Board of
selectmen for their co-operation during the year.
acknowledgements are made to the various Town Departments,
Boston Edison Company and New England Tel. & Tel. Co. for the
cour$esies and co-operation extended to me during the year.
Respectfully submitted,
AMBROSE P. VAHEY
Superintendent of Wires

ADDITIONAL PERSONNEL.
Due to the majority vote granting the 42 Hour Work Week to Fire
Fighters, under the provisions of the statutes in March of 1968 it
will be necessary to add 1 Captain, 3 Lieutenants, and 12 Privates
to the Fire Department.
I should like to point out the protection provided in the last 40
years.

1929 84 25

1951 56 29
1959 48 29
1968 42
It will require 16 additional men to provide 29 men on duty in
1969. Undermanned fire companies and inadequate fire protection
may save a few dollars but only at the expense of human suffering
and human life and the needless destruction by fire.
High rise apartment and convalescent buildings,increased population
and construction and many other pertinent factors surely justifies
the goal of 33 men on duty in the near future as recommended by
the National Board of Underwriters, the Committee of Seven Report
and the present and former Fire Chiefs of Watertown.

TRAINING REPORT
PUMP INSTRUCTIONS:
Instructions on pump operations from draft were held at the
Charles River. Pumper operations from a hydrant were conducted
at the Bemis Dump and the Town Incinerator Dump areas. These
drills were held during the months of April and September. All
operations pertaining to pumpers were covered during this period.
LADDER WORK:
Station #3 provides a suitable area and building for conducting
ladder drills. These drills are usually performed with an engine
and ladder company working together. These companies are drilled
in raising and lowering ladders and carrying hose over the same.
Iligh rise apartments are of special interest to the Fire Department
and methods of advancing hose lines through interior stairways
have been practiced and demonstrated.
NEW AERIAL LADDER #1 (100 Foot Aerial Ladder, Maxim Tiller)
A Maxim 100 foot aerial ladder was delivered to us in July of
1968. Training with this new unit has been carried on constantly
since the date of arrival. Drivers and tiller men have been trained
day and night on all groups on the proper driving, handling and use
of this apparatus. All personnel have been training regularly in the
handling, use and operation of all tools, appliances and equipment
carried on this apparatus.
SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS:
The life gun and life net were demonstrated and used at the Station #3
training area.
Special instructions were given in the use and operation of the
Foam Generator. Personnel were also trained in the use and operation
of the M. S. A. Foamaker Unit.
The old Arsenal property now under control of the Watertown
Redevelopment Authority proved to be ideal for training with foam,
hydrants, buildings and driver training.
ANNUAL REPORTS - 1968 205
PUMP TESTS:
Service tests of pumping apparatus were conducted during April.
These tests are made with the assistance of the department mechanician.
All tests were held at the Charles River and are in accordance with
the National Board of Fire Underwriters' requirements.
INDOOR TRAINING:
In the winter months, indoor training was conducted in the various
stations. A particular training subject was assigned each week.
These drills were conducted by the Company Officer under the general
supervision of the Department Training Officer.
OUTDOOR TRAINING:
Outdoor training was held from April through October at the
Station *3 training area, the Charles River, the Bemis Dump, the
Incinerator Dump and the old Arsenal property.
FIRE PREVENTION BUREAU
During the year business and commercial establishments, schools,
institutions, etc., were visited and inspected for the purpose of correcting
any conditions which may be hazardous and further to see that all
ordinances, rules and regulations were being observed.
All public, private, and parochial schools and nursing homes
were inspected quarterly as required by law. These inspections
proved valuable to both this bureau and to those institutions visited.
In-service inspections were conducted in the spring of the year
in dwellings by members of the department under the direction of
this bureau. This program enables the firefighter to gain valuable
knowledge of building layouts, types of hazards to expect, etc., so
that he may be better prepared to operate more effectively in the
event of fire or other emergency. This knowledge helps us in the
protection of life and property.
Fire Prevention Week was observed as usual with visitations
to all schools. Fire drills were conducted, appropriate films (provided
by the Audio-Visual Aid Department of the Watertown School Department)
were shown and a lecture on Fire Prevention given at each school.
The Fire Marshall program conducted in the schools at the sixth
206 TOWN OF WATERTOWN
grade level has proven a valuable asset in educating not only the
youngsters but also their parents to the advantages of practicing
Fire Prevention at all times.
CONCLUSION
I wish to thank the Honorable Board of Selectmen and the Members
of the Finance Committee for their untiring efforts to understand
the administrative problems of the fire department, particularly
in regard to implementing the 42 Hour Work Week.
To the Members of the Fire Department, I extend nay admiration
and thanks. Not withstanding undermanned fire companies, your
loyalty, courage and devotion to duty kept life loss and fire loss
at a minimum.
Respectfully submitted,
THOMAS C. CONLON

REPORT OF THE CHAIRMAN
In 1969 the Library entered its second century. A special Town
Meeting in January of 1868 provided for the establishment of a Free
Public Library. The flourishing institution which has now served
several generations of the Town's people well justified the faith
of those who subscribed the seed money.
The new century started with a new development of the perennial
problem of staff salaries. The library employees formed a Staff
Association and petitioned the State Labor Commission for recognition
in collective bargaining under the recent act. The Labor Commission
recognized the Staff Association as repkesenting the Library employees,
and the Library Trustees as representatives of the town. The Town
ANNUAL REPORTS - 1968 209
Counsel has said that the. Selectmen are the only legally qualified
agents to negotiate for the town, and the Selectmen have requested
the Labor Commission to reconsider their action.
In the meantime, negotiations were started between the Staff
Association and the Trustees. Since agreement had not been reached
at the time of the deadline for Town Meeting action, the Trustees
have submitted articles containing their recommendations to the
Town Meeting. The Trustees recommendations include the setting
up of a separate classification for Library employees in Chapter 10
of the Bylaws. They are also proposing that Library employees
be removed from the provisions of Chapter 10.
For a detailed report of library affairs you are referred to the
report of the Director.
CHARLES T. BURKE
Chairman
REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR
Inflationary pressures on staff salaries and mounting book and
construction costs had the most significant effects on library operations
in 1968.
Cost effects diminished the rate of book acquisitions. Each year,
for the past two years, book and periodical expenditures rose by
$2,800. Despite these money increases, the number of added books
decreased. Acquisition totals in 1967 numbered 7,769 a drop of
192 from the previous year. And, in 1968, an additional decrease
of 913 titles was recorded. This reduction in the availability of
new books resulted in a loss inthe number of books borrowed. Although
the loss was relatively small it is clear that the informational needs
of the community are not being met. My best judgment is that the
library needs to maintain a minimum acquisition level of 8,000 books
annually. This means an annual increase in book appropriations
by at least $5,000.
Costs slowed our building modernization program. The library,
for the past several years, has maintained a policy of preventive
maintenance and modernization of our physical plant. This is based
on the premise that it is best to annually expend moderate amounts,
on our facilities, in addition to our regular maintenance appropriations,
than to hold off for several years when a major investment would
be required. Rapidly rising construction costs;i have supported
210 TOWN OF WATERTOWN
the soundness of this premise. However,-these costs have made
important inroads even in our modestSpecial Maintenance appropriation
Expansion and re-lamping of the Children's Department at the East
Branch this year showed that an amount of $5,000 was insufficient
to accomplish even minimum goals. Future appropriations will
require sums between$7,500 and $10,000.
The rise in the cost of living along with long standing deficiencies
in salary schedules were reflected in the staffs desire to utilize
collective bargaining as a means to secure a reasonable and fair
remuneration, in accordance with their training, education and re-
sponsibilities. Collective bargaining is a new experience for Town
officials and employees. The law itself is sufficiently vague so
as to provide for honest differences of opinion in its interpretation.
Cumulative court and State Labor Relation Board decisions will
ultimately clarify this new and changing relationship between the
employer and employee. Although there will be a new era in the
legal relationship between the Librarian, Library Directorand Trustee,
the human relationship will remain. Faith, trust and goodwill are
still part of the human- condition and are the essential ingredients
that will determine the success or failure of people worldng towards
a common goal.

TOWN TREASURER
On December 12, 1967, Mrs. Roxy E. Sahatjian was appointed tem-
porary treasurer by the Board of Selectmen. Mrs. Sahatjian served in
this capacity until March 7, 1968. The Town of Watertown is apprecia-
tive of the excellent service rendered by Mrs. Sahatjian.

On May 10, 1968, this office borrowed $500,000. - in 10 year water

5,000.000. - New England Merchants National @ 2.92°'6 Interest
The Treasurer's Office invested Town Funds so as to earn for the
Town an amount of$46,112.98. This amount will help to defray the in-
creasing costs to the Town for both short term and long term borrow-
ings.
A concentrated drive was conducted to collect monies owned on prop-
erties held in Tax Titles. I am pleased to reportthatsixproperties have
been redeemed by the owners and the Town has been paid in full, several
others have made substantial payments and three others are in process
of foreclosure.
To help increase income in the Cemetery Perpetual Care Account,
this office purchased the following:

For the purpose of encouraging cooperation between the licensees
and the Police Department, and with a view to detecting possible vio-
lations of the laws or regulations governing a specific license, the
License Bureau made 883 physical inspections of licensed premises
during the year. Any irregularities observed during these inspections
or otherwise brought to our attention, were thoroughly investigated
and corrective action taken. In most instances, this was accomplished
by reprimand or warning and such irregularities and corrective ac-
tion taken were noted in department records:
In 1968 it was necessary to revoke the license of one (1) Class II
Auto Dealer because of financial problems of the licensee.
GAMBLING AND VICE
All persons known to have been concerned in gaming activities in
the past and all establishments likely to foster or encourage such ac-
tivities are kept under constant surveillance. In addition, all "tips",
whether anonymous or otherwise, are thoroughly investigated. Al-
though some of these 'tips" prove to be unfounded, or it is impossi-
ble to gather sufficient evidence to present to the courts, we welcome
all such assistance in our constant effort to keep the Town free of
the gambling element. In 1968, the following "gambling" cases were
prosecuted in the Waltham District Court:
Allowing Premises to be Used for Gaming 2
Being found with Apparatus for Registering Bets 4
Being present where Lottery is Concerned 1
Setting Up and Promoting a Lottery 1
240 TOWN OF WATERTOWN
In the area of Narcotics and Harmful Drugs too, we welcome assist-
ance given us by citizens in the way of"tips"or confidential informa-
tion. All such information is thoroughly investigated and the identity
of the person furnishing such help is held in strict confidence.
We enjoy splendid cooperation from the personnel of the Federal
Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs and the State Police Nar-
cotics Bureau, both on investigations and exchange of information.
During 1968 the members of our License Bureau, Inspectors Divi-
sion;IrA Juvenile Division investigated several cases involving narco-
tics or•harmful drugs. The following cases were prosecuted in the
Waltham District Court
Being Present Where Narcotic Drugs Illegally Kept 9

Conspiracy to Violate the Narcotic Drug Laws 12

JUVENILE DIVISION
During the year ending 31 December 1968, there were two hundred
and seventy (270) juveniles involved in complaints filed with this de-
partment. Fifty-eight (58) of these juveniles were involved in rqore
than one complaint. It should be noted that in many instances several
juveniles were involved in one complaint (e.g. Malicious Mischiefl
while in other cases a single juvenile was involved in multiple com-
plaints (e.g. Drunkenness, Disturbing the Peace, etc.). 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:

they were brought before the Court. Complaints involving juveniles
not taken to court were handled in an informal manner after consulta-
tion with parents, clergy, and school authorities.

issued. Of this number 5,467 were for Parking Meter Violations, and

tions over the previous year(4,208 or 335%) can be attributed directly

tance in arranging schedules for these talks.
BICYCLE SAFETY: A Bicycle Safety Program was conducted in all
parks in the town with the cooperation of the Recreation Department.
Approximately 500 children participated in this program which con-
sisted in inspection of the bicycles (for mechanical safety) and instruc-
tion in safe-riding habits. At the conclusion of the program, 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 Veterans of Foreign Wars.

TRAINING
In 1968, the New England Association of Chiefs of Police presented
nine (9) separate three-week sessions on Command Trainingat the Com-
mand Training Institute, Babson Institute, Wellesley, Massachusetts.
This Institute was supported by a grantfrom the Office of Law Enforce-
ment Assistance, United States Department of Justice. The teaching
staff was composed of members of various college and university facul-
ties in the Greater Boston area, representatives of the FBI and leading
police executives from New England. The curriculum included inten-
sive courses in Community relations, human relations,decision making,
planning, staffing, motivating, and controlling as those subjects apply
to the duties and responsibilities of ranking and superior officers in
a municipal police department. The following-named members of this
department attended and successfully completed this course:
Captain Joseph H. Sheehan, Jr.
Captain V. John Mankiewicz
Lieutenant Salvatore C. Cristello
Sergeant George A. Terrazzano
In April-May, 1968, Sergeant George A. Terrazzano attended a four-
week training course for Community Service Officers at the State
College, Boston. This course was presented by the Greater Boston
Police Council in conjunction with the Municipal Police Science Insti-
tute, Inc., and was aimed at improving communications and coopera-
tion between the police and the community. The curriculum covered
such subjects as Metropolitan Environment, Internal Dynamics of the
Metropolitan Community, Intergovernmental Agencies and Public Re-
lations.
In August-September, 1968, a 16-hour course in Radiological Moni-
toring was conducted by the Massachusetts Department of Education
at the Watertown Arsenal Fire Station. This course was completed by
three members of the department who were awarded certificates.
Sergeant John F. Papalia
Patrolman William Martin
Patrolman Gino DiPietro
ANNUAL REPORTS - 1968 247
Nine new members of the department attended Basic Police Train-
ing School for a period of six weeks as required by law. All nine men
successfully completed the course and were graduated:
Patrolman Edward A. Bakerian Patrolman David F. Keefe, Jr.
Patrolman Cornelius F.Farrell Patrolman Frederick S.h1acFadgen
Patrolman Donald P. Higgins Patrolman Francis P. Mullahy
Patrolman Charles A. Jacoppo Patrolman George M. Tocci
Patrolman John J. York, Jr.
In October, all members of the department with the exception of the
nine men who had attended the Basic Police Training School this year,
completed an eight-hour First Aid Refresher Course as required by
law. This course was presented by the American Red Cross and con-
ducted by Mr. Harry DiPietro, 37 Hillcrest Circle, Watertown.
With a view to promoting 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 application,
as well as copies of all amendments to the General Laws in the Acts
of 1968 which were pertinent in any way to police work. In addition,
the Chief researched and furnished each member of the department with
an in-depth explanation of the General Laws and Supreme Court deci-
sions as they pertain to:
'THE CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS OF JUVENILES ARRESTED"
Throughout the year all members of the department were issued
'Training Keys" (4-page, 8-1/2" x 11" printed pamphlets published
twice monthly by the Field Service Division of the International Asso-
ciation of Chiefs of Police). Periodically, written examinations were
given on the material contained in these training keys. Since this in-
service training device was introduced in 1964, we have issued 110
Training Keys. In 1968, these training aids covered such subjects as:
Auto Theft Investigation The Runaway Juvenile
The Family and Delinquency Dangerous Drugs
Improving Officer-Citizen
Contacts Pursuit Driving
Examination papers of both superior officers and patrolmen were
marked and made part of the individual's permanent record.
In 1968 we continued our use of Film Strips issued by the inter-
national Association of Chiefs of Police Field Service Division. Each
Film Strip runs about ten minutes and includes a running commentary
on the illustrations being shown. These films are shown before Roll
Call and repeated frequently so that each member of the department
248 TOWN OF WATERTO WN
sees each film strip several times. Some of the subjects covered in
1968 were:
Searching Arrested Persons The Prowler
Severe Mental Illness Felony Arrests
Burglary Prevention Crime Prevention
During the year, seven(7) members of the department availed them-
selves of the opportunity to take Law Enforcement Courses at North-
eastern University. All of the courses taken are accredited and appli-
cable to the eventual attainment of a Bachelor's Degree in Law En-
forcement.
AUXILIARY POLICE
At the close of the year 1968, there were forty-eight(48) uniformed
members of the Auxiliary Police Force.
During the year, the men of the Auxiliary Police Force worked a
total of 3,082 hours. Periods of major activity were Memorial Day,
Fourth of July, Labor Day weekend, Halloween and the Christmas
Season. During the Christmas Season alone, the Auxiliary men logged
192 hours on duty.
Regularly - on an average of two nights each week during the year
(and each night duringthe Christmas Season)Auxiliary Officers reported
(in their turn) for Traffic Duty and/or General Patrol Duty between 8 PM
and 11 PM. The two Civil Defense Patrol Cars assigned to the Auxiliary
Police traveled more than 15,000 miles on General Patrol Duty through-
out the town.
Regular training classes were held for all members of the Auxiliary
Force in the Guard Room at police headquarters. Some of the subjects
covered in these classes in 1968 were:
Rescue Breathing Duties and Responsibilities of
Safe Driving Techniques Auxiliary Police - On and
Police Ethics Off Duty
Search of Prisonero Crime Prevention
Target proctice sessions were conducted weekly at the Police Fir-
ing Range.
Members of the Auxiliary Police Force under the supervision of
Captain V. John Mankiewicz of the regular force and Auxiliary Captains
Thomas.Sherry, Joseph Poirier, Francis Vallely and Carl Pentz, were
of invaluable assistance to the regular force during the year and are
deserving of the highest praise for the excellent manner in which they
carried out their assignments.

REPORT OF THE FINANCE COMMITTEE
After a two year retirement, your Finance Committee Chairman was
invited to return mid-year amidst numerous problems. An already complex
situation was compounded when we ran into the following problems; excessive
transfers from the Reserve Fund, indicating questionable State laws and local
budgeting; apparent mis-use of overtime and unpaid bills which continue to
remain unchallenged problems; demands for budget increases; the continuing
decrease of "free cash", which is even lower this year; County and State
costs sinking togreater deficit levels;and M.D.C.charges along with M.B.T.A.
deficits. In short, we are in a fizzling financial fix, and not many really
want to do much about it.
A few regularly attending members of the Finance Committee have done a
good deal of work in a variety of areas. No longer are they passively look-
ing at simple budget sheets alone, but have broadened their perspective
with the following innovations and recommendations: (1) The Town should
no longer fiddle faddle about Public Works. We need it, and what we now
want is able assistance in shaping out the best Public Works system going;
(2) Sponsorship of 'unity meetings" with responsible Boards, Committees,
and Personnel in an effort to achieve harmony and economy; (3) A clerical
pool should provide greater leverage to Selectmen for the more efficient use
of part-time clerks; (4) A mail service center for the processing of all
Town incoming and outgoing mail which should prove a saving in stamps,
stationery, and time; (5) A data processing system not only to save time,
but also for faster bill collections, as well as for countless other purposes;
(6) A freeze on employing new personnel in order to control the heaviest
area of expenditures, to permit Public Works consolidation, and a pending
study of the Police and Fire Department; (7) The cancellation of out of state
travel for all but limited personnel; (8) A reduction of excessive or unclear
contingent Items; (9) An inventory system as a check on lost, damaged,
and stolen equipment; (10) Cars, equipment, and items which can be used
for an additional year kept; (11) A study to permit Watertown to become
self-insured rather than pay large insurance premiums; (12) An article
to consolidate certain departments dealing with personal services;(13) Expen-
sive projects which may be partly financed by Federal or State funds not
started until such funds become available.
The Finance Committee, fortunate in not having to deal with personnel
matters, looks with special favor on the efforts and results of the Personnel
Board, and accepts their report as submitted. It also looks forward to the
continuance of the excellent accord in,the collective bargaining proceedings
evident this year.

252 TOWN OF WATERTOWN
Budget requests for this year amount to$12,313,998.36 and the Finance
Committee has reduced this figure by $700,808.64. The recommendations
made reflect the needs of the community. However, there is a greater
need for sharp Town Meeting members who will objectively challenge
these recommendations. This has been a difficultyear, and the next promises
to be even more difficult. We must join together in constructing a budget
that will avoid repeating the excessive tax increase of last year.
In closing, I wish to thank those few members of the Finance Committee
who have attended regularly and who have shown an objective pattern of
behavior. I also want to thank the many Department Heads and town em-
ployees who, in supporting Public Works, continue to show the best example
of cooperation, production, and economy to be found anywhere. If this
spirit prevails by all committees, commissions, departments, and boards
at this Town Meeting, there is no question that we shall succeed in paying
worthy town employees high wages, obtaining the best services, and at the
same time, keeping our tax rate under sensible control.
Charles K. Avery
Chairman
P.S The "Cherry Sheet" is not available at this time from the Department
of Corporations and Taxation.
However, using last years' estimate of income figures along with 1968
recommendations, and assuming. state and county charges will be about
the same, it appears that an additional $700,000.00 will have to be raised
by taxation on property. This means that depending on how much our val-
uation is increased by the Assessors that the Town faces an $8.00 to $9.00
increase for 1968 if Town Meeting follows the recommendatons of the
Finance Committee.

PERSONYEL BOARD
The !'ersonnel Board, an agent of the Town Meeting, and functioning under
the pnovi:Iions of Chapter 10, Section j of the By-laws of the Town organized on
.Tune 21, 1967. Lawrence E. Beloungio was elected Chairman and Robert Manzelli,
Secretary. Thomas Heilly Was later appointed clerk of the Board.
The Board presently consists of the following members;
Member of the Board of Selectmen for 1968
Robert Manzelli
Member of the Finance Committee for 1968
Michael J. Savas
Employee of the Town for 1968
George Doyle
Citizens at large of the Town:
Lawrence W. Beloungie until 1968
Angelo Castellani until 1970
Edmund J. Mc Devitt until 1970
James Mozzicato until 1969
The Board of Selectmen appointed the Personnel Board as the Collective
Bargaining Agent of the Town under the powers granted them by the State.. In ful-
filling this duty, the Personnel Board held forty sessions with the bargaining
units of the three large groups, Police, Fire, and hourly paid employees. Agree-
ments were negotiated with all three.
The Board met regularly during the year to review personnel requests and
problems of the employees of the Town. Recommendations for ammendments to Chapter
10 appear in the Warrant for the 1968 Town Meeting.
In view of the continually increasing complexity of personnel administra-
tion, the need for a full time Personnel Director has become more apparent. This
matter should be given serious consideration by the town and a change recommended
for next yearls Town Meeting action.
The work of the Personnel Board has increased in scope and complexity
while its character remains so confidential that more isolated quarters whould be
found for records and a more private meeting place. This need is even greater if
the Personnel Board is to remain the Bargaining Agent of the Town.
My personal commendation is herewith made to the members of the Personnel
Board for their steadfast and unselfish service to the town despite the rigorous
and demanding schedule necessary to complete the work of the Board.
Lawrence W. Beloungie,
Chairman
Voted: That the report of the Chairman be adopted and is the report of the Per-
sonnal Board.

REPORT OF THE HOSMER SCHOOL BUILDING COMMITTEE
After an exhaustive economic and engineering feasibility study by the
Stoffian Associates the Hosmor Survey Committee decided that it was in the best
interests of the Town to build a now school. The Survey Committee became the
Building Committee. After interviewing fourteen architects and visiting over
fifty schools, the firm of Korsland, Lo Normand and Quann, Inc. was selected.
The sum of one million, seven hundred thousand dollars was appropriated. The
Leonard Rugo Company was awarded the general contract. The committee will com-
plote the building wall within the appropriation.
The target date of August, nineteen hundred and sixty-seven, was set for
the completion of the building. Although several minor items oust be completed
bofore acceptance the school opened on schedule.
The school has twenty-coven classrooms, two kindergartens, throe class-
rooms for the educable and trainablo, two all purpose rooms, a dental and health
clinic, science room, art room, library, guidance rooms, remedial rooms, offices
and adequate storage space. All classrooms have sinks, bubblers and screens for
audio-visual education. Kilns for ceramics, closed circuit television and receiv-
ing, a palnetorium, a climatorium, learning centers, recordings and many other
types of innovative materials and equipment are available to the staff. Some of
the classrooms are expandable to allow for team teaching or large group activity.
The building and equipment should make possible a moderm educational pro-
gram for a jet society.
Ease of maintenance, pupil safety and pupil comfort have at all times been
a serious consideration of the Committoo.
The Now Hommer School will make possible a school plant that will enable
the children of the district the opportunity to develop their minds and bodies to
the limit of their capacities in an environment conducive to sound educational
practices. The school should also servo as a meeting place for the adult and rec-
roational groups of the neighborhood.

REPORT OF TILE PERMANENT SCHOOL BUILDING COMMITTEE
Because of the need for more classroom space in Watortown, the School Com-
mittoo filed an article for the appointment of a Permanent School Building Com-
mlttoo. This committoo would study population trends in the town and consider the
total town classroom need. It would report such need to the School Committee for
approval. It would recommend new construction, replacement of old buildings, or
additions to existing structures.
The article was adopted unanimously at the last regular Town Meeting and the
members were appointed.
The Permanent School Building Committee is composed of nine membors: two mem-
bers of the School Board, that member of the School Administration in charge of
buildings and maintenance, the Town Auditor, the Town Treasurer, a member of the
Planning Board, and three citizens of the town, two of whom must be experienced
in building construction, architecture or engineering.
When recommendations have been approved by the School Committee and voted
by the Town Meeting, the Permanent Building Committee in office at that time will
act as the Building Committee for the specific project.

262 TOWN OF WATERTOWN
The Committeo was organized, and Mr. Joseph Boyce was elected Chairman,
and Mrs. Betty Doherty, Secretary. Several meetings wore hold with the School
Committee. Close relations were established with the Planning Board. The studies
of all previous survey committoes were reviewed. After much deliberation and
study, the Building Committeo decided that their first consideration should be a
four year high school. It was unanimously agreed that only two sites should be
considered-tho Victory Field area and present high school site. The firm of"
Davies and Wolf was selected and commissioned to report on the feasibility of the
proposed sites. Educational specifications will be prepared by the school admin-
istration. The architect will study the advisability of constructing an entirely
now high school on the Victory Field site and will determine total costs of all
construction.
The alternate proposal being studied is the possibility of a total ronov-
ation and addition to the present high school. In order to use this site, twelve
homes must be taken by purchase or eminent domain. This plan also involves the
problem of finding additional space to relieve our elementary ovor-crowding in
the northwest section of the Town. When all the studies are complete and the
Building Committee has reached a decision, the recamasondations will be presented
tp the School Committee for approval. The matter then will be taken to a Special
Town Meeting and the decision will be made by the Town Meeting Members.

REPORT OF THE WATER CONSTRUCTION COMMITTEE
The Water Construction Coasaittee was formed in accordance with Article 25
of the Annual Town Mooting of 1967.
The following persons were appointed:
Selectman, John A. Ryan
Water Commiasionor, Leo D. Sullivan, Jr.
Treasurer, Robert C. Hagopian
Auditor, John J. Sheehan
Town Engineer, James H. Sullivan
Finance Committee Member, Thomas E. Roche, Jr.
Aast. SuP't• of Water, Edward R. Marchant
and citizens, J. Allen Kimball and Robert A. Fitzgerald.
The committoe was duly organized on June 21, 1967 and elected Leo D. Sul-
livan Jr., Chairman, and Robert A. Fitzgerald, Secretary. Angola Wright was ap-
pointed Clark. The Committee also voted to hold mootinge on a monthly basis.
A number of meetings were held with the Consultant Firm of Metcalf and
Eddy, Engineers, and the Watertown Redevelopment Authority to determine the pos-
sibility of receiving Federal Funds for the water renewal project. It was doter-
mined that, at the present time, no Federal Funds wore applicable to those pro-
jects.
After a detailed study into the scope of work and the Town resources, the
committee voted to utilize town forces and equipment for about 90 percent of the
project. This mothod is expected to reduce the cost of the Water Construction
project by a considerable amount. In joint meetings with the Selectmen and Water
Cocmmissionors it was determined that a task force consisting of four key men
14

from the Water Department and six man from the Highway Department, under the dir-
ection of Mr. Edward R. Merchant, could be sot up to handle most of the construc-
tion projects. The Committoo further voted to retain the firm of Metcalf & Eddy
of Boston, to provide engineering services in connection with the cleaning and
lining of mains, as recommended in their study. This project will be accomplish-
ad by outside contractors in early 1968.

REPORT OF THE SEUER AND DRAM COMMITTEE
The committee on Sowor and Drains has boon inactive during the past year.
This, because the heaviest drain problems appear to be solved at presatt
conditions.

ditions will demand our attention, especially as they pertain to the aged trunk
line servicing Watertown Square and Pleasant Street area, as far west as the
Bemis area.

264 TOWN OF WATERTOWN
WATERTOWN CONSERVATION COMMISSION
Report for 1967
This past year your Committee held and attended meetings to gain a working
knowledge of its subject matter for further dissemination. Subject matter
included:
1. Comprehensive Plan for this town, purchased for many thousand of
dollars, which is being largely ignored as each individual item is decided.
2. Pollution control:
a. Charles River - Attendance at Army Corps of Engineers meetings.
Membership in and attendance at Charles River Watershed Association meetings.
James Lambie from Federal Northeast Water Quality Management Center was local
speaker, as was Denny Whitmarsh of Station WBZ.
b. Atmospheric - Members of your Commission attended meetings held
locally conducted by State authorities on air pollution. Major sources of
pollution in addition to the automobile and leaf burning activities are the
stacks of the Lewandos building, Western Electric, and the Town of Watertown
Incineration plant.
c. Litter - One container furnished for Saltonstall Park area and
one barrel at the corner of Mt. Auburn Street and Parker Street through the
assistance of Mr. Stiriti.
3. An attempt was made to publicize the need for open space by asking
that the Watertown Arsenal be made Town property for use as park, recreation
and open space, as well as school and municipal purpose land.
4. B. F. Goodrich petitioned and was granted the privilege of dredging
and filling a portion of Sawin's Pond. The results have been disastrous.
S. Raytheon's removal of natural cover from Walkers Pond area prompted
a reminder that filling required a standard "Hatch Act" procedure, and that
filling was not desirable.
6. Your Commission was represented at the M. D. C. Annual Meeting
where some of the plans of the M. D. C. are aired, and questions were made
in regard to the solid fill area in West Watertown, as well as a complaint
registered on the condition of the pool, with the M. D. C. Commissioner
Whitmore agreeing that repairs would be made for the coming season. Re-
version of Arsenal lands to the M. D. C. was discussed. Appreciation reg-
istered for repair of dam.
7. A proposal was submitted to your Selectmen to eliminate the nuisance
of the pest and trash-ridden area between Whites Avenue and Waverley Avenue
involving the use of incinerated refuse and existing town facilities. The
matter was referred to the Town Engineering Department and the Highway Depart
went and returned from there with suggestion of further delay. We would
appreciate interested citizens' concern in this matter.
8. The necessity for an Arbor Day or similar related effort in public
and parochial schools to acquaint and stimulate future citizens' environ-
mental awareness was discussed with hopes of near future implementation.
16
ANNUAL REPORTS - 1968 265
9. Modification, printing and circulation of it conservation pamphlet
with the assistance of the Water Department of the town is in process.
10. Continual efforts are made to coordinate M.A.P.C. Park, Recreation
and Conservation activities.
11. Pamphlets and literature have b9en distributed at town meetings and
other public assemblies.
The possible loss of open space due to the building of a Boys Club may
be more than compensated by augmentation of item #7 above.
Your Commission appreciates the privilege of service and hopes to improve
its effectiveness in the near future.
Respectfully,
Robert B. Chase, Chairman
REPORT OF COMMITTEE TO STUDY THE ADOPTION OF CITY GOVERNMENT
The Committee appointed by the Moderator to study the adoption of
a city form of government met frequently during the Fall of 1967. It
decided to begin by inviting as guest speakers men with expert knowledge
or experience in various forms of municipal government. Then, having
looked at the problems in a general way, the Committee planned (as the
second phase of its study) to invite local citizens and groups from
Watertown to give their specific recommendations and comments.
The Committee feels that it has almost completed the first phase,
having heard interesting presentations by former Selectman, Pat Sclafani,
Mayor Richard Dacey, Professor Robert O'Hare of Boston College, former
Selectman, E.J. Seferian, and former Treasurer Bob Hagopian.
The Committee soon came to realize that the topic was far more com-
plex than its members had first thought. The new home rule law makes it
possible for a community to set up almost any form of government that
suits its particular needs. It is not a single matter of "town vs. City,"
but rather, what kind of town structure, or what kind of city structure,
might be best for Watertown. Mr. O'Hare pointed out that there are good
reasons under the home rule act for electing a charter commission even if
Watertown wished to retain its present town government without change.
All the speakers urged the Committee not to be hasty, but to take
time and draw up its final recommendations with great care. For this reason
and because there are probably a good many citizens of one town who will
want to make their opinions known to the Committee, we ask that the Committee
be continued for one year, to report its finding to the Annual Town Meeting
in 1969.
Respectfully submitted,
Alfred E. Nugent, Chairman

DR. RAYMOND R. DELANEY
Superintendent of Schools
Iamhonored to present the eighty-eighth Annual Report of the Super-
intendent of the Watertown Public Schools.
I express may appreciation to Mr. Joseph Carroll, Jr. and other
members of the Staff who participated in the preparation of this report,.
On October 8, 1968, the first contractual agreement was entered
into by the Watertown School Committee and the Watertown Teachers'
Association. The contract includes articles related to wages, hours
and other conditions of employment.
Throughout prolonged negotiations improvement of the total instruc-
tional program was the primary objective of both parties.
WATERTOWN PUBLIC SCHOOLS
School Organization
The Watertown School System has been reorganized. The base
structure, Figure 1, is static, it reflects the organization at a given
time. Note that the organizational chart has been developed to show
lines of authority and communications. These lines bring fluidity
to the organization.
Three Administrative Assistants have been assigned to the staff.
One assistant is responsible for business services,the other two assis-
tants are generalists who are directly responsible to the Superintendent
of Schools for such duties as may be assigned to meet changing organi-
zational needs.
The organizational chart depicts only the formal organization. From
the formal organization, task teams are developed. The teams give the
organization more flexibility. The task teams are assigned by the super-

intendent. The need for task teams are identified by advisory groups
such as the Administrative Staff, Instructional Council,Parent-Teacher
Council, Parent-Teacher Association and the Teachers' Association.
An example of such a recommendation came from the Instructional
Council.
The Instructional Council is a general advisory body composed of a
representative of the superintendent, directors and faculty members.
It is the major communication vehicle between the superintendent and
the faculties. The Council is concerned with two areas, curriculum
development and in-service education. It identifies and suggest pri-
orities related to instructional needs. The needs may be immediate
and/or long range.
Recommendations were made by the Council to form study teams in
the areas of: Science, Social Studies, Mathematics, Language Arts,
Pupil-Personnel services and new areas of development for the cur-
riculum. The superintendent and principals selected the six commit-
tees for curriculum study.
The Administrative Staff, a group composed of the Superintendent
of Schools and principals, gave priority to curriculum work in language
arts for the summer. A task force of five staff members and Dr.
Raymond Buddle of the University of Massachusetts, a consultant,
studied alternative approaches to the methods and content used in the
teaching of creative writing and written expression. The proposed
philosophy and the implementation of the areas studied are now sub-
ject to trial in the elementary grades.
The group compiled a teacher's guide. Itis a comprehensive refer-
ence of functional writing skills, suggested activities for implementing
these skills, and suggested activities for creative writing.
Staff members are working on a preliminary program evaluation
for Watertown High School. Mr. Samuel M. Busselle, Educational
Consultant from the Educational Services Division of General Learning
Corporation, coordinates the study groups. All departments of the high
school are involved in the evaluation and are developing recommenda-
tions for a comprehensive educational program.
Some of the philosophical highlights are:
1. The high school should offer a comprehensive educational pro-
gram.
2. The educational program should offer every student, regardless
of personal plan or educational goals, an opportunity to acquire a sound
foundation for learning.
278 TOWN OF WATERTOWN
3. The curriculum should be adaptable and flexible and should em-
phasize individual programs of learning for every student according
to the needs of each individual.
4. The .curriculum should include opportunities for vocational
training which will prepare for employment those students who do not
plan to continue formal•education beyond high school or who plan to
continue in special vocational programs after graduation.
5. The educational program should more actively involve the stu-
dent in the learning process by encouraging individual responsibility,
independent study, and opportunities for informal student-teacher re-
lationships.
6. The educational program should offer competent and continuous
counseling to students in planning their educational and future careers.
This continuing study is being conducted by departmental groups
within the organization with their output coordinated into a general
program.
One must note that the lines of communication,as depicted in Figure
1, allow the educational leaders, the principals, to form task teams.
Such a team may be set up to solve pupil problems. For example, a
child with a reading problem may be assisted by a team composed of
the School Psychologist, counselor, reading specialist, speech and hear-
ing specialist, teacher, parent and the nurse. The principal would be
a part of the team and coordinate its activities.
The organization of the teams is designed to meet identified needs,
thus setting up goals for each task to be accomplished.
The above examples denote how the organization remains flexible
enough to meet the ever changing needs of the system. The organiza-
tional structure is so designed as to achieve institutional purposes and
to satisfy the needs of personnel within the organization.

WATERTOWN PUBLIC SCHOOLS
Happenings 1968
In an inexDrable drive to individualize instruction, many programs
in Watertown schools go through gradual changes. These changes have
as a basis, current research and testing. However, are the changes
adaptable to our curriculum? To matte this determination, they are
subject to trial with our children. Some of the programs and changes
are as follows:
L Social Studies:
1. A new social studies program, Man: A Course of Study, de-
veloped by the Educational Development Center of Cambridge is
being taught to fifth and sixth grades. Some of the questions ad-
dressed in the program are: What is human about human beings?
How did they get that way? How can they be made.3nore so?
One of the aims of the program is to give perspective to things
that children take for granted about themselves,the need for learn-
ing, the ever-presence of parents, the helplessness of babies, the
power of language.
The materials of the program offer the child a unique oppor-
tunity to explore the immense diversity of informationabout human
conditions.
2. Children in grades one, two and three study economics. Using
resource units, the children discover the order of the world around
them. They may see the relationships between events and ideas.
The ideas are related to life in the home, neighborhood and the city.
The approach draws upon the child's experiences and his own
"sphere of understanding''. Most of the ideas in the program are
based on economics, but much is done to bring in sociological,
historical, political, geographic, and anthropological understand-
ings. The teaching methods include the-use of stories, dramatiza-
tions, films, displays, poetry, games and topics for class discus-
sions. One can hope to develop attitudes and values necessary to a
free society.
3. In the secondary schools progress has been made to make the
social studies program more relevant to today's world. More
rote memory courses that have beenprevalent in the social sciences
have given way to the development of concepts that are appropriate
to the understanding of our times. Group work now aids in the
exploration of social fields of knowledge to discover answers to
questions of the day.
ANNUAL REPORTS - 1968 281
U. Science:
1. In the elementary schools, child-centered science investigations
are conducted. Through the use of Elementary Science Study units,
the children have the opportunity to manipulate materials on their
own, to observe, to hypothesize, to test and draw conclusions for
themselves. The methods used place the child in an environment
which stimulates a variety of activities, thus the child finds and
solves his own problems.
2. The high school Science Department initiated pilot program of
"team-teaching!'in the area of Physical Science. Students meet four
times a week. Two periods are held in the auditorium for large
group instruction under the direction of a master teacher with three
group leaders. The other two meetings are with small groups of
about 20 to 22 students for more individualized instruction and
group activities.
III. Language Arts:
1. A co-op program was instituted in conjunction with Northeastern
University. Three students from Northeastern University's School
of Education will aid in the teaching of language arts. This program
is unique because this is the first time that students with special
training in language arts have been utilized in Watertown.
2. Some definite steps have been taken to initiate a program of
dyslexic children. Plans are presently being made to have a state
approved program for perceptually handicapped children.
3. The high school English Department setup a new program. The
program includes various related activities such as the production
of a senior play.
4. The Watertown Public Schools have embarked on a library ex-
pansion program. Library facilities have been expanded and addi-
tional staff acquired. The purpose of the new libraries is to make
books and materials more accessible for students and to stimulate
their need to research and read.
5. During November a very successful Book Fair took place.
Jointly planned by teachers and PTA mothers, over nine hundred
paperback books were purchased by children in grades two through
six. Interest and enthusiasm ran high as many students took ad-
vantage of selecting and buying their own choice ofreadin&mater-
ial. Profits were utilized to purchase additional books which will
widen the choice within the regular library.
282 TOWN OF WATERTOWN
IV. Mathematics:
1. Anew approach to mathematics is being used in the elementary
schools. The children are encouraged to discover mathematical
ideas, to search for interesting patterns, and to make generaliza-
tions. Visual and manipulative materials constitute an integral
part of the mathematics program.
The School Committee sponsored a 3 credit course for elemen-
tary teachers. The course was developed by the University of
Illinois Arithmetic Project. More than 70 teachers attended. An
additional workshop was held in the fall with Dr. Zolton P. Dienes,
an internationally known mathematician.
In the continuing search for better ways to help children learn,
two programs are being developed for evaluation. Children in two
first.grades are using materials which have been prepared for the
individualization of instruction.
2. An Honors Program in Mathematics for the student of high
ability and interest was initiated. Students in the course are eli-
gible to take the Advanced Placement Examination. College credit
may be given as a resultof the successful completion of the course.
V. Guidance:
1. Expanded elementary school guidance services includes a pro-
fessionally trained counselor assigned to each school withguidance
and counseling services available on a regular basis.
The major emphasis of the program is directed toward the kin-
dergarten and primary grade children, their parents, and teachers.
Efforts are made to identify children who appearto be having diffi-
culty in making normal adjustment to school and home situations.
Teachers and parents are consulted, usually over an extended
period of time, in order to try and bring about a greater under-
standing of the child. Attempts are also made toward setting in
motion procedures which may bring about changes in home and
school situations which could be contributing to the problem.
2. There has been a reappraisal.of guidance philosophy, functions
and services. The guidance program is continually being evaluated
and improved in order to better meet the needs of our children. The
reappraisal was accomplished by engaging in a workshop approach
involving an exhaustive rethinking of the basis,purposes,objectives,
approaches and services of guidance and counseling in the elemen-
tary and secondary schools. This has resulted, not only in greater
un derst uxiing of the work at each level, but has served as a means
of developing greater unity and coordination of the entire program.
ANNUAL REPORTS - 1968 283
3. A study is being conducted in Watertown. The group, headed by
Dr. Ralph Garry of Boston University, is seeking to develop a pro-
gram that improves self direction on the part of elementary school
children.
4. There has been established a junior first grade. This program
makes provisions for children who need more readiness work in
developing language art skills. The group is slightly smaller than
those that are heterogeneously grouped, making it possible for
each child to develop at his own rate with more individualized in-
struction.
5. The Watertown High Schoolliow offers freedom of choice rela-
tive to subjects and levels of courses. Each student now chooses
his course and level with only advice from the guidance counselor.
The track system has been eliminated.
VL Foreign Language Offerings:
The School Committee adopted an expanded foreign language
program. The major provisions for the expanded program are:
1. French and Italian will be offered in grade seven.
2. Latin 4 French I and ItalianI will also be offered in grade nine.
3. Latin, French I, Spanish I and Italian I will be offered in grade
ten.
Provision will be made for continuity of the language study pro-
gram throughout the secondary grades. A four-year sequence will
be available in each of the four foreign languages.
V11. Art Education:
1. The Art Department has made available, because of the desir-
ability of students to have an opportunity to gain some cultural
background in the Fine Arts, a field trip course for credit. Each
week the class visits a museum or historic home and hears a
lecture on some special subject.
2. Photography is now a course for credit at the high school.
Students have entered their work in scholastic competition for the
first time.
3. A modest start has been made in the area of film-making with
the cooperation of the Visual Aids Department.
4. A new course in the history of art has been added to the high
school art program.
284 TOWN OF WATERTOWN
5. The Watertown schools are taking Rill advantage of a lecture
service offered by the Museum of Fine Arts. Desired subjects
are selected from a wide variety of offerings. A lecturer comes
to the school bringing slides and materials for a one-hour pro-
gram.
6. "Young Audience Concerts" were introduced to our elementary
and junior high school students for the first time.
7. A music appreciation program was conducted in the fourth
grades. Films, recordings and a running commentary on the
string family and the violin was given.
8. A new music study unit, Keyboard Series, was introduced for
use in the general music classes at the junior high schools. Ad-
ditional units on toddy's music are also being used in the class-
rooms.
9. Music enrichment seminars are being givenat the high school.
These seminars reflect a humanities approach to music-enrich-
ment.
VUL Business Education:
The use of tapes in both shorthand and typewriting classes are
helping to individualize instruction. The students type from tapes
put on a recording machine. The pupil can adjust the speed to
improve control. Students taking shorthand receive dictation from
tapes. The tapes vary in timing, difficulty of material, and
details. This method of teaching makes itpossible for the teacher
to spend more time with individual students who need additional
instruction to develop needed skills.
The above programs reflect a pattern of growth within the school
curriculum. The changes mirror the needs of students as they social-
ize into today's society.
LANGUAGE ARTS IN-SERVICE PROGRAM
An in-service course is being offered during the school year. It
is a basic developmental reading-language skills workshop forteachers.
Essential reading, writing, speaking and listening skills are presented
and analyzed in the light of the most recent concepts of integrated learn-
ing at various grade levels. Practical work in developing well-inte-
grated reading-language skills and plans for classroom use with below-
average, average and above-average pupils will be emphasized. A
review of various types of instructional materials currently used in
classroom, and a discussion of grouping practices will be conducted.
ANNUAL REPORTS - 1968 285
The sixteen week program is staffed by Northeastern University
persommel under the leadership of Dr. Melvin Howards. Dr. Howards
Is chairman of the Reading Department and the Director of the Center
for Reading Improvement at Northeastern University. The program is
on a Graduate School level. The instructional staff is available to talk
with, observe and participate in the classrooms of interested teachers
in the program.
The sessions will be of seminar and workshop types. Rather than
telling the teachers how to use or make informal reading and language
analysis, they shall be involved in the making of just such informal
evaluations, using them with their students, thus improving their effi-
cacy in grouping for, and individualizing instruction.
Because of the interrelationship and interdependance of the language
arts skills to social as well as science areas, word skills, comprehen-
sion and interpretation, and study skills will be reviewed with the inter-
relationships being pointed out. The total curriculum will be involved
in the utilization of reading and language skills. A major effort will be
made in developing the analyses skills of teachers. Diagnosing indi-
vidual problems will aid the teacher in designing individual courses or
approaches to meet the needs of students. The teachers will be con-
fronted with presentations that lead them to discover what the problems
are and what to do about them.
The goal of the workshops includes sensitizing the participating
teachers to effective means of detecting reading and language problems,
and improving their methods, of coping with and overcoming them.
It is hoped that interested parents will visit the workshop.
IMPROVISATIONS AND THEATER GAMES FOR ELEMENTARY
SCHOOL CHILDREN
An in-service series of workshop sessions are being conducted in
Watertown. Improvised drama and theater games are some of the
techniques being used to show how a child can be encouraged to become
more creative.
The series are being held under the supervision of Viola Spolin.
Miss Spolin is the innovator of the theater games approach to impro-
visations.
The system is designed to stimulate the imagination, develop an
awareness of one's environment, and to highten and extend one's powers
of observation. Each game or improvisation has its boundaries in rules
agreed upon, but within these boundaries there is no "right' or "wrong"
way to solve a problem. Every child arrives at his personal solution.
Children and teacher have fun while doing the games and exercises,
and the element of constructive, creative play is a vital component of
the games approach.

COMMENTS ON FOLLOW-UP SURVEY
WATERTOWN HIGH SCHOOL CLASS OF 167
1. The follow-up survey was undertaken in the Spring of 1968 by
means of sending a letter and a one-page questionnaire to all who had
graduated from Watertown High School in June 1967. It was also
necessary to send postcards and make telephone calls to those who
had not replied before the termination of the study on June 15, one
year following graduation. Astudy of this kind is known as a one year
follow-up survey and this year's is the 29th consecutive one year study
made of Watertown High School graduates.
2. The percentage of graduates reporting and included in the tabu-
lation was 96.0 percent of those graduating, a very high percentage of
return for this type of study.
3. Slightly more than half (50.91o) of the graduates were continu-
4M post-secondary school education. Although this is five (5) percent
smaller than the number reported for the Class of'66, it equals the
average of the graduating classes of the past several years.
4. The kinds of educational institutions that the graduates of the"
Class of 167 attend fall into two broad categories: 1. degree granting
colleges (4 year) and 2. associate degree colleges (2 year) and di-
ploma schools (1, 2, 3, years). The percentages attending are listed
by type of program within each category:
A. Degree granting colleges and universities (4 year), 51.6%
Liberal Arts 26A Education 12.7%
Business Adm. 3.9% Engineering & Science 5.90
Fine Arts 2.0% Nursing 0.9%
B. Associate degree colleges (2 year); Dipooma schools (1,2,3,
year), 48.4%
Associate degree Diploma (3 year) 4.4%
programs 23.4% Diploma (1 year or less) 11A
Diploma (2 year) 8A
5. The geographic location of the institutions to which are gradu-
ates go is always of interest. Each year most graduates attend col-
leges located within the greater Boston area. This year's class
was no exception. Of those attending four-year colleges, 59.5 per-
cent attend within the greater Boston area, and additional 17.0 per-
cent within Massachusetts but outside greater Boston, 9.4 percent
in another New England state, and 14.1 percent outside of New England.
These percentages are similar to those of previous years.

6. The trend of the past few years toward increased attendance at
state supported colleges and universities was continued with the Class
of 167. Statistics for the Class are compared with those of the grad-
uates of recent years in the following table. Not only is it possible
to compare the percentages of those attending state supported insti-
tutions with independent colleges and schools over the past six years,
but also to note the general consistency of those continuing education
after high school and those attending four year and other types of
schools.

7. The number regularly employed, including those in military
service and girls,married, represents a little more than forty-seven
percent of those graduating. Included among them are 95 percent of
graduates following an Industrial Arts type of program, 70.5 percent
a Business, 68.8 percent General, and 16.2 percent College Prepara-
tory. The percentage reporting regular employment was 5.6 percent
higher than last year and the percentage in military service is approx-
imately the same, 6.6, and those married 3.2 percent.
8. The graduates regularly employed, exclusive of those in military
service, were working in the following locations: 37.9 percent in
Watertown, 37.2 percent in communities contiguous to Watertown, 23.5
percent in Boston and 1.4 percent outside the Watertown-Boston area.
9. The mean weekly salary of those regularly employed was $81.73,
an increase of$4.68 per week over the previous year. 1.4 percent re-
port salaries within the range $50.-$49, 12.4 percent $60.-$69, 10.7

ANNUAL REPORTS - 1968 305
1. The term drop-outs refers to students who withdraw from school
before the completion of the school 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 forthe year 1967-1968 in the Water-
town grades 9-12 is 1.9percentofthetotal membership of these grades.
This percentage remains about the same as it has been for the past
three years.
3. The greatest attrition occured this year in Grade 12, with 4.0
percent of the number of drop-outs leaving in this grade.
4. If the drop-out rate of 1967-1968 as reported in Table 8 were to
remain relatively constant 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 inferr-
ed by multiplying the present drop-out rate of approximately 2 percent
by 4, the number of years covered in Grades 9-12, producing an over-
all four year drop-out rate of 8.0 percent and a four year holding-
power rate of 92 percent.
5. The percentages of drop-outs for the past five years, including
1967-1968 were 2.4, 2.0, 2.0, 2.0, 1.9, respectively, a total of 10.3
percent (see Table 9). From these data we can conclude that during
the past five years Watertown High School graduated approximately
92 percent of the students entering Grade 9 in 1964. It must be borne
in mind, however, that each year a number of students transfer to
other schools and enter Watertowm High School from other schools,
the number involved approximately balancing each other.

6. A comparison of the Watertown percentage of drop-outs with
those of the Massachusetts Public High Schools (Table 9) indicates
that the Watertown rate is well below the state average. Conversely,
the holding power of Watertown Schools is relatively higher.
7. Table 10 lists the reasons given by students dropping-out of
school. Nearly two thirds of those leaving indicate that they are not
interested in school and prefer work to going to school.

AUDITOR1S REPORT
I herewith present the Annual Report of the Financial transactions
of the Town of Watertown for the year ended December 31, 1968.
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 Collectors
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 1968 is $526,856.73. "Free Cash" in accordance with
the provisions of General Laws, Chapter 59, Section 23 has been certified

The outstanding Debt of the Town of Watertown as of December 31, 1968
is in the amount of $3,235,000,00, However, we have authorized additional
borrowing in the amount of $1,217,000.00, Last year, the Town authorized
a borrowing to purchase the Watertown Arsenal, and the Town Treasurer
borrowed $5,500,000.00 in anticipation of issuance of these bonds. The
interest on this note is due this August. Please note that the outstanding
and authorized Debt as of December 31, 1968 is $9,952,000.00, a new high in
