The number of six-weeks' appointments for the entire year -- all departments -- totaled 515. The number of persons processed for employment in all departments (excluding school) totaled 1199, changes in status 417, and terminations 1146.
An analysis of the employment figures for the year indicate the following:
1. The Hospital Department drew the largest number of employees, followed by the Recre- ation, Highway, Water, Sewer, Park, Cemetery and Forestry Departments.
2. The employment of new persons, mostly seasonal, in all departments began to climb in the month of April, reached a peak in the month of July and declined rapidly in the month of October; the exception being in the Recreation Department, its peak being reached in the months of June and October, due primarily to the summer and winter recreation pro- grams.
3. There were 134 new employees, both temporary and permanent, in all departments (ex- cluding school) who received six-month salary step increases during the year.
4. To fill vacancies resulting from deaths, retirements, promotions, etc., within the official Civil Service, there were over 50 written examinations requested by the Personnel De- partment and conducted by the Massachusetts Division of Civil Service.
5. Seven permanent Patrolmen were appointed to the Police Department. Seven permanent Fire Fighters were appointed to the Fire Department. The average age of the new ap- pointees in both departments was 28 years. These figures compare with an average age of 26 years, Patrolmen, and 30 years, Fire Fighters in 1962.
A general salary increase was granted by the City Council to all employees (excluding the School Department) receiving salaries of less than $9000. per year. These increases ranged from $100. per year for the higher salaried employeesto $300. per year for the lower salaried employees.
The uniformed forces of the Police and Fire Departments received a flat 8% increase. This resulted in the following annual increases:

In 1963, the Health Department conducted five major community health service campaigns in addition to its other regular health programs. The results of these campaigns are contained here in detail. Each project was backed by eight column Ledger advertisements sponsored by the South Shore Pharmaceutical Association. The local radio station, W.J.D.A. publicized the programs, through spot announcements, as a public service. Fire Chief Thomas F. Gorman cooperated with the Health Department by providing polio clinic sites at the fire stations throughout the City. The Quincy Lions Club worked closely with the Health Department in sponsoring the Glaucoma Detection

Clinic. The National Diabetes Association provided the literature and testing kits necessary for the Diabetes Detection Drive. The Massachusetts Division of Cancer and Chronic Disease provided funds for professional personnel for the Glaucoma Detection Clinic. The International Association of Firefighters, Quincy Local 792, supplied invalid stickers which were posted in the homes of shut-ins when the invalid roster was received.
Such an extensive health program is not possible without the cooperation of these many community organizations. A program of this nature required health department personnel to work many a twelve hour day without extra remuneration. The results have proved to be worth the effort since statistics show that Quincy ranked first in Massachusetts and tenth in the Nation for diabetes tests processed in the 1963 campaign. It is the only City in the State sponsoring a Glaucoma De- tection Clinic on a sustained basis.
I. The first project was initiated to protect children from the lethal, poisonous substances found as common household items in most every home. During National Poison Pre- vention Week an eight column advertisement, paid by local pharmacists, was run in the Patriot Ledger covering ninety per cent of the area. Anti-poison posters, prepared by the Health Department, were displayed in prominent areas throughout the City. Several thousand families were visited during a six-week period and interviewed by Health De- partment personnel. Each family was instructed to poison-proof the home and to post pertinent literature in a suitable place.
II. A mass Sabin Oral Polio Immunization program for pre-school children and adults, which was launched in May of 1962, continued in 1963, as the additional vaccine was made avail- able by the State Department of Public Health. Make up clinics were conducted to insure complete protection for all who desired the Sabin vaccine. Quincy was the first city in the state to provide Types I, II, and III of the Sabin vaccine to the entire citizenry without charge. A total of 99,378 doses were administered to adults. 21,378 doses were ad- ministered to pre-school children. 14,000 school children, both public and private received three doses of the Sabin oral vaccine.
III. "Be Tested - Be Sure" was the theme of the Diabetes Detection program which was con- ducted during the month of November and is now being continued on a sustained basis throughout the year. The program offered a free Dreypak test for Diabetes to all applicants. Sixty thousand kits were distributed to the public. Industries in the area participated in the program. Local pharmacists agreed to distribute the diabetes dreypak kits which were supplied by the Health Department. This enabled people in every section of the city to procure the kits without difficulty. The program's purpose combined Diabetes education and detection. The Health Department laboratory received a return of 41,163 Dreypak strips which represented 174 hours of testing. All participants were notified on special forms of the results of the test, whether positive or negative. Letters were sent to 418 participants whose tests showed positive, advising that further study was warranted by the family physician. This program won honorable mention in the Greater Boston Diabetes Association's Newsletter.
IV. Hearing is second only to sight in its importance to safety, success and satisfaction in life. The Hard of Hearing Detection Clinic for adults resulted in 375 applications for appointments received. 97 applicants out of the 375 tested were found to have some form of hearing impairment. The relatively low number of tests conducted is attributed to the time element involved in testing. To accommodate the backlog of applicants, the hearing clinic was extended through 1964.
V. Quincy boasts the only permanent Glaucoma Detection Clinic sponsored by a city Health Department. The Quincy Lions Club observed the first two clinics in operation and at a special meeting voted to sponsor the program by providing funds for non-professional services at the clinic. Aspreviously mentioned, the State Division of Cancer and Chronic Disease provides funds for professional services. Because of the large number of citizens requesting appointments for this clinic it was necessary to add an ophthalmologist to the staff of the Health Department.
ANNUAL REPORT

It should be noted here that the above clinics were conducted for the purpose of detecting disease. In each and every instance where any irregularity was discovered the person in question was referred to his own physician.
Mention should be made of the Anti-Litter program which was initiated in the Spring of 1963. Fifty thousand litter bags were distributed to families and private industry throughout the city. These were accompanied by a flyer reminding each citizen of his duty to help keep Quincy clean. Anti-litter posters were accepted and posted by merchants throughout the city. Many in private industry procured litter baskets and deposited them on the premises for public use.

Approximately 40,000 quarts of milk and milk products were cansumed per day in the City af Quincy in 1963. The supply is adequate and af gaad quality. This canditian is due ta inspection cantrol, partly and cooperation af the Dealers and Producers.
The law on bacteria counts has been amended to 100,000 raw and pasteurized fram 10,000 to 5,000 bacteria per c. c. and will require a closer supervisian and cantrol af the raw supply.

2. SWABBING
A total of 880 swabs were takenfrom eating and drinking utensils, i.e., glasses, cups, spoons and forks. Of the 880 swabbed, 794 or 90.2 met the requirements of this department. Warning notices were sent to the owners of establishments having excessive counts.
Since the retirement of our bacteriologist, Dr. Edwin E. Smith, swabs are collected twice instead of four times per month. This accounts for the reduction of swabs taken in 1963 as against 1962.
3. COMPLAINTS
One hundred four (104) complaints were receivedand investigated in the year 1963. A break- down of these complaints follows:
Food exposed to dust, flies, etc. 11

In March I attended the Massachusetts Shellfish Officers Convention in Boston. The theme was "Conservation Technique and Management in the Shellfish Industry." One of the methods discussed was the catching of seed clams with plastic screening, a method which has been used with some success in the Cape district.
There was one court case, the charge being digging in a contaminated area without a City Permit. The violator was found guilty and the charges were placed on file.
The major complaints received were from residents who objected to men digging on their property; also, of men digging within 100 feet of the high water mark.
In September, the ordinance pertaining to the taking of shellfish and sea worms was amended. From May through September no shellfish or sea worms may be dug within 150 feet of the high water mark. Previously, it was 100 feet from the high water mark on private beaches and 150 feet on public beaches.
