Decorations and Fireworks
The Committee on Fireworks and Decorations, James P. Roberts, Chairman, as well as the Dedham Tercentenary Committee, began planning for the Tercentenary early in 1935. Mr. James P. Roberts proposed the installation of an alternating electric sign on the tower of Memorial Hall; and prior to the first of January, 1936,-when it first flashed forth,-the Dedham Historical Society, at an expense of several hundred dollars, presented to the Town as one of its contributions a sign which read:
1636 DEDHAM 1936
in letters 8 feet tall. The sign was so advantageously placed that all travelers either on old Washington street or the new Route 1 were appraised by its blinkings of the Ter- centenary celebration.
The Committee also caused to be erected early in the summer, streamers or signs across all the principal highways entering the Town, inviting all to celebrate with Ded- ham the week of September 13-20, 1936. All the local institutions, as well as citizens generally, were invited to decorate public buildings and homes during Tercentenary Week. and prior to the American Legion Parade, held on September 13. Co-operation followed and all public buildings in Old Dedham Village were beautifully decorated as were many homes. It was suggested, and the suggestion was followed in many instances, that build- ings erected prior to the American Revolution be decorated in buff and blue, while later buildings could be appropriately trimmed with the stars and stripes. The Committee de- signed and caused to be prepared by the New England Decorating Company, and used on public buildings and the residences of Town officials and members of the Tercentenary Committee, a blue banner about 30 inches square, with a facsimile of the Town Seal in buff to which the word WELCOME was added and this expression of our spirit of re- joicing was popular and prized.
At Tercentenary Headquarters in the K. of C. Building, the Committee displayed, as a Tercentenary suggestion, a design for a Town flag. The sample was 5x8 feet, and showed three vertical bars (two of blue and one of buff ) with the Town Seal showing in the center. The suggestion may lead to action by the Historical Society and other patriotic groups and finally to adoption by the Town, ot a flag that can join the stars and stripes and the flag of the Commonwealth on future days of rejoicing.
On Saturday night September 19, at 9:30 a wonderful display of fireworks was held at Stone Park where an estimated crowd of 5000 people gathered from Dedham and nearby towns of Norfolk County to enjoy the exhibition sponsored by the Fireworks and Decorations Committee of the Tercentenary celebration. The display opened with a three-bomb salute to notify the residents that the fireworks were about to be set off. Ten minutes later the display began-the first piece, a large shield of the town 30 feet high and 20 feet wide in colored lights. This was followed by a large sign reading "1636" and then "1936". A movable horse and buggy next traveled across the park showing the transportation of the olden days to be followed by an exhibition of an automobile which circled the park, then reversed and backed up. After these special Tercentenary pieces had been vigorously applauded, a second group of set pieces were put off-20 in all --- showing Niagara Falls, the American Flag and other beautiful designs, all of which drew a loud applause from the assembled throng. Then came a display of aerial bombs lighting the sky with colored flares, bursting bombs and stars. The final barrage con- sisted of 80 separate bombs bursting in the heavens, alternately and sky rockets shooting into the sky from every angle of the park. It was the best display of fireworks heretofore seen with the exception of that at the Harvard Tercentenary celebration which took place a week earlier on the Charles River Basin.

Tercentenary Observance in Dedham Schools
Even before the Tercentenary year had arrived, pupils in Dedham schools were directing their thoughts to its meaning and observance. Under the stimulation of the 1935 Dedham Transcript Historical Essay Contest, Junior High and Senior High School pupils delved into Dedham's past to produce stories of the early history of their native town that were much enjoyed by their elders and which disseminated much general information through the town. Winners of prizes in this contest which covered a period of many months were Elizabeth Wright, Ruth Perry, Alice Belk, Donald Cheetham, Hugh Staples, Joan Williams, Warren Wheeler, and Waltraud Volkmann.
The opening of the Tercentenary year was the occasion for further written work and hand-construction in the schools. Superintendent John Anthony was requested, carly in the plans of the Tercentenary committee, to perpare the school children to take part in the musical part of the celebration.
At the time of the High School graduation in June, 1936, the Tercentenary Class honored the school's oldest living High School graduate, Miss Ann Hattie Guild of the Class of 1855. Miss Guild was presented a gift of flowers by the president of the graduating class, Howell Morris. An original Tercentenary hymn by Miss Sue Irving, music by Robert W. Gibb, was sung by the class. The Dedham Teachers' Association presented two Tercentenary scholarships to members of the class, Miss Jean Taylor and Francis A. Smith.
A general school exhibition of handwork, planned for sometime during the year, was deferred until after the long summer vacation. It was held in the various build- ings in connection with an open-house day during the tercentenary week at which pro- grams commemorating the Tercentenary were also presented. Among the most novel of the exhibits was a planetarium, made of heavy paper, large enough to admit adults. The planetarium was the work of Ames Junior High School pupils.
Pupils from the Junior High Schools of the town marched in the Tercentenary parade.
A sports program at Stone Park was arranged by the Sports Committee for Friday afternoon, Sept. 18. A rainy afternoon caused it to be changed to Monday, Sept. 21.
A cantata depicting the history of music was written for the Tercentenary observ- ance by the music director, Robert W. Gibb. Parts of this were presented during National Education Week in November. It will be presented in its entirety at a later time.

Sports
Sports of various kinds occupied an important place in the celebration of Dedham's tercentenary. Long before the official week began, certain events had been in progress.
Starting on July 1, under the sponsorship of the Tercentenary Sports Committee, a series of twilight league baseball games were played on Tuesdays and Fridays at Stone Park. Four of Dedham's precincts were represented by teams that took part in this series. They were the Elite Club (precinct 1), the East Dedham I. & A. (precinct 3), the Oakdale A. C. (precinct 4), and the Manor A. A. (precinct 5). Although the Manor team won the most games of the series, it was beaten by the East Dedham I. & A. in the Labor Day game for the town championship. East Dedham won by the score of 6 to 2 and received the official cup. The Manor team was also given a cup. Throughout these games Harry Green was the official scorer and Erwin Tucker the umpire.
On September 5, the Tercentenary Swimming Meet was held at the Dedham Bath House. Ribbons were awarded for first, second, and third place in each event, and a cup given for first place in the 440 yard open. The 50 yard for girls was won by Jean McCarthy, the 50 yard for boys by Peter Robinson, the 100 yard for girls by Eileen McCarty, the 100 yard for boys by Edward McCarty. Prizes were awarded by John J. Shea, Selectman of the town. Officials of the meet included Francis Spillane, starter; Thomas F. Cummings, timer; Timothy Costello, Nicholas DeSalvo and Thomas F. Cummings, judges; David H. Livingston, clerk of course; Jacob Schrei- ber, Michael J. Burns, and Mary A. Bullard, aids.
On September 12, the first day of the official celebration, the N. E. A. A. A. U. fifteen kilometer foot race was held shortly after the parade. Of the field of over fifty contestants, Ellison Brown of Rhode Island and John Kelly of Arlington were the prin- cipal contestants. They were two of a team of three which represented the United States this year in the Marathon at the Olympics in Germany. Brown crossed the finish line in Stone Park less than forty yards ahead of Kelly. He ran the route in 51 minutes and 14 seconds, and received the regulation gold-plated New England Championship Medal. Silver and bronze medals were given for second and third place, and trophies for the first eight places. Race officials included the following: J. Frank Facey, referee; Harold E. Rosen, marshal; Oliver A. Richard, clerk of course; George Hatfield, Frank McGrath, Thomas T. Doggett, Jr., Charles Leahy, Melvin Reid, John J. Shea, and John T. Gaynor, judges; Alfred J. Lill, chief timer; John McKittrick and James Hennigan, timers; Josiah Lewis, chief scorer; Edward A. Putnam, William Sandler, John Casey, Francis Spillane, Joseph Paglucca, Timothy W. Costello, John McDonough, Albert Capone, James G. Dowd, Joseph Shevory, and Arthur Levangie, scorers; Andrew G. Geishecker, starter; P. A. Chamberlain, custodian of prizes; and Dr. John J. Carroll, physician.
Following this event a group of men and women gymnasts from the West Roxbury Liederkranz Society gave an exhibition of marching tactics, calisthenic drills, and group pyramids. The work was performed under the direction of the leader and instructor of the group, Edwin Koening. Those who took part were Doris Finlayson, Angelina Mariana, Marie Morrissey, Helen Norton, Elfreda Steimle, Ethel Tauber, Edwin Breiten- bach, Kurt Chimielorz, Max Knoll, Ralph Sander, Edwin Steimle, and Russell Walter.
A series of horseshoe pitching contests were held on the courts at the George C. Willard home on East Street. The singles was won by Fred DeSalvo, the doubles by William P. Levangie and John D. Sullivan, and the best score in 100 pitched throws by Walter B. MacRae. A cup was awarded for the singles event and ribbons for the others. The official in charge was George C. Willard, the referee Joseph B. Wetherell, and the scorers William Murphy, George W. T. Macfarlane, Walter L. Newman, and Robert Patterson.

The canoe regatta, which was held near the Spring Street bridge on September 13, attracted the largest audience to attend any of the sport events. Over eight thousand spectators, many from surrounding towns, came to see the seven canoe clubs compete for the Tercentenary Trophy. Competition was close up to the end, but in the last event of the program, the war canoe race, Needham finally won, thus taking the point lead from Breed's Canoe Club of Dedham, its closest competitor. The final standing of the clubs was: Needham 25, Breed's 22, Crescent 16, Dedham 9, Nite Owl 9, Samo- set 6, and Moricon Delta 4.

Dedham Gardens
The first event of the official tercentenary celebration took place Sunday, May 17, when twenty-four local gardens were opened by their owners to Dedham neighbors, and visitors from surrounding towns. Nothing could have been more auspicious as a beginning of the Tercentenary observance, giving expression, as it did, to the com- munity-wide spirit of hospitality which was to mark the entire celebration and impressing upon Dedham people and visitors the beautiful environment of winding river, gently rolling country, and encompassing blue hills in which the town has its location; also giving an opportunity to ci.joy in an intimate way the beautiful homes and cultivated landscapes in which the town as a whole takes great pride.
Fifteen hundred to two thousand people visited the gardens, a number that doubt- less would have doubled itself had not the morning of the day been ushered in with heavy rain, and a lowering sky shown no signs of relenting until a half-hour before the hour of garden opening. The brilliant afternoon sun dried out the garden paths and was joyfully greeted by trees, shrubs and flowers as well as by an enthusiastic public.
Much publicity was given to the garden opening for several days preceding the event through local and city newspapers, by means of posters in public places, by letters to organization leaders, and, on Sunday morning, from Dedham pulpits.
The idea was conceived and largely executed by Mr. H. Wendell Endicott of the Tercentenary Committee. Under Mr. Endicott's direction, a well-ordered plan for visit- ing the gardens was developed. The gardens were arranged in numbered groups, according to location .- six in all-and a "We come" sign placed at the entrance to each garden, to enable the visitor to make his tour with the greatest convenience and to choose from the large number the different types he might wish to visit. Those who opened their gardens in co-operation with this tercentenary event were:
GROUP 1
Mr. and Mrs. F. H. Wilkes, 265 Walnut Street, Dedham. Mrs. Frank W. Kimball, 283 Walnut Street, Dedham. Mr. Samuel C. Endicott, East Street, Dedham.

The gardens were open, generally, from two to six o'clock. Out of town visitors came from Needham, Wellesley, Newton, Hyde Park, Roxbury, Brookline and an ever widening radius which included Randolph, Millis, Marlboro, Worcester and Providence. It was well into the evening before the final visitors withdrew. L Neighborliness and hospitality marked the afternoon. Gracious hosts and hostesses welcomed with friendly informality all who came and provided many thoughtful com- forts for their guests. The visitors showed their appreciation of the courtesy extended them in painstaking consideration of the property of their hosts. Much delight was expressed at the beauties of the gardens which ranged from the small backyard type -- the creation of the loving hands of its owners-to the extensive garden of the large estates, .planned and cared for by professional horticulturalists. Nature showed herself willing to co-operate with all who would make beauty. The same trees, shrubs and plants were found in all gardens, delightfully different effects being achieved by their arrangement according to the individuality of the owner.
Gorgeous masses of richly colored tulips, pansies, ground phlox, dicentra, aquilegia, trillium, azaleas, lilacs and anchusa filled the gardens with color. Hedges, garden walks, pools, fountains, benches, summer houses, pottery vases, furniture created charming environments. Bird life, attracted to the gardens by many subtle devices, lent melody to fragrance and color.
Vistas of the town which had become more or less of a commonplace renewed their charm when seen from a garden vantage point and new views, brought out by garden arrangement, were frequent interesting discoveries of the visitor. Century old elms, oaks and pines sometimes formed the background, sometimes made the center of interest in the gardens, and trees of a younger growth added much interest to the landscape. Shrubs in leaf or flower, and rock gardens in great variety exhibited the expanding possibilities of garden architecture.
At the close of the afternoon there was increased pride in the hearts of Dedham people in their home town and a new and more friendly regard for their fellow towns- men. There was pride in a common citizenship, unity in sharing a common interest and increased incentive to mutual esteem. The garden opening proved itself not alone a successful initial event in the tercentenary program but also a heartening experience in neighborly relationship.

Old Dedham Homes
Nothing connected with Dedham's Tercentenary celebration created more neigh- borly interest than the opening of eighteen Dedham homes during the afternoon hours of September 14, 15, and 16, the first three days of Tercentenary week. Under the direction of the Hostess Committee, a sub-committee composed of Mrs. William C. Rugg, Mrs. Sidney F. Batchelder, Mrs. Patrick Carr, Mrs. George F. Connors, Mrs. Louis C. Dethlefs, Mrs. Harry A. Eastman, Mrs. Joseph Guild, Miss Elizabeth Humphreys, Mrs. C. H. J. Kimball, and Mrs. Kennedy Pope took over the arrangements.
Eighteen characteristic Dedham homes were chosen to be opened, some for their age and historic associations and others for the charm of their gracious modern interiors. Their owners cooperated with much good-will. Then came the detail of arranging the homes in the order of route, placing suitable designations at the entrances, determining the visiting hours, providing transportation, and preparing a form of credential to be presented by visitors for the protection of the home owners. Three dozen of Dedham's charming young women were invited to act as assistant hostesses, two in each home. They were dressed in. period costume and instructed to answer all questions, be unfailingly courteous, and at the same time keep an eye on the family antiques.
Five hundred admission tickets were distributed from Tercentenary Headquarters and Dedham Community House the first days of the Open Homes period and before the end of the third day a total of one thousand passes had been issued. Approximately fif- teen hundred persons visited the homes on the three afternoons designated. In the regis- tration books, in which the names of guests at each home were recorded, visitors were tound to have come from various parts of New England, New York, New Jersey, Penn - sylvania, Illinois, Tennessee, Minnesota, Oklahoma, Texas, California and England. Over six hundred guests were recorded in several of the homes. The average number was over three hundred and fifty.
In order that as many as possible might have the pleasure of visiting the homes and enjoying Dedham's spirit of gracious hospitality the committee organized a motor corps with Mrs. Kennedy Pope as its chairman. This corps did valiant service although hard pressed by the unexpected numbers.
An indispensable feature of the opening of the homes and one that greatly increased the pleasure of the visitors was a list of the homes with pertinent facts about each compiled in pamphlet form after much research by Mrs. Rugg and supplied the visitors as they set out on their itinerary of visiting. On both the part of host and visitor intre was delightful exchange of courtesy in the various homes - the host generous mi hospitality, the guest appreciative of the welcome extended to him. The occasion displayed much general neighborliness and shared far beyond its own borders the graciousness of life in Dedham in its tercentenary year.
One of the most thoughtful provisions of Dedham Tercentenary hosts was the establishment of a day nursery in the Nathaniel Ames house, fitted up in observance of the best and newest ideas in child education. The nursery was sponsored by the Church of Christ, Scientist, owners of the house, and was open, as was the house, all the week.
The assembling and costuming of the attractive group of assistant hostesses is to be attributed to Mrs. Patrick Carr. The young women were: Misses Priscilla Bailey, Priscilla Barlow, Florence Carlson, Constance Carney, Ann Carr, Phyllis Carr, Mrs. Loring Conant, Miss Marion Conant, Mrs. George F. Connors, Misses Esther Cutter, Betty Daniels, Kay Daniels, Mary DeBenedictis, Nancy Drew, Nancy Eaton, Louise Gagliard, Mrs. Francis A. Harding, Misses Grace Hine, Jacqueline Hornsby, Helen Hussey, Patricia Keelan, Mrs. Walter Kipp, Misses Marion Lynch, Ruth Marble, Helen McMasters, Bertha Moore, Mrs. Otis Nash, Misses Audrey Phillips, Marion Scanlon, Betty Swett, Mary Wood, Eleanor Wright, Mary Wyman, Mary Young.
