REPORT OF RECREATION DEPARTMENT
Mr. W. C. Kendrick, General Manager,
Norwood, Massachusetts.
Dear Sir:
I submit herewith my report as Supervisor of Playgrounds for the season of 1934.
Playgrounds and Enrollment
Seven playgrounds were operated by the Town of Norwood under the direction of seven men and six women for a period of eight weeks during the summer of 1934. More than twelve hundred boys and girls regis- tered for the opening week at the Balch, Elks, Civic, Senior High, Shat- tuck, Callahan and Morse centers. In addition tennis courts located at the Civic and Senior High were under the direct supervision of this depart- ment. An additional man was required as an attendant at the Civic courts, and a life-guard at the Morse Pond. The number of men and women within the jurisdiction of this department were, therefore, seven mnen instructors, six women instructors, and two men attendants.
Condition of Fields
A new center was opened this year at the Senior High School with an attendance and spirit that was gratifying. Much work was accomplished at the Callahan School to re-seed the grounds, and to improve the general appearance. A temporary field was used during the entire summer to allow the new grass a season's growth.
The Shattuck boys attended for the first time their new field at what is known as "White Mike's Field." The men of the Public Works Depart- ment are to be congratulated on the rapidity with which they constructed a baseball diamond and backstop in the first two weeks of the playground season.
The Endean Playground during the past summer was considerably handicapped due to the field construction work in progress most of the summer.
Activities
For each of the eight weeks a single objective or highlight was estab- lished and attained.
The first week consisted of registration and organization of boys and girls into various team units.
The second week had as its objective the opening of the Playground League competition. For boys four teams in baseball on each playground ranging in ages from eight to nineteen, and for girls two teams on each playground, Seniors and Juniors, were established. These teams engaged in at least one game each week.
203
The third week witnessed an all-day outing of girls held at the Wonder- land Camp of the Salvation Army. The boys spent the afternoon at New Pond swimming.
A Pet and Doll Show was instituted as the high-light of the fourth week, and proved to be a genuine success. More than seventy dolls and car- riages as well as approximately seventy animals ranging from a pony down to white mice were exhibited by the children. In connection with the show an art poster contest was conducted, the winners receiving their prizes at the first High School assembly of the past fall.
That annual institution, Parents' Night, held in the sixth week was as interesting as in the past. The large number of parents who were present at each of the playgrounds on that occasion was a source of satisfaction to the individual instructors and of pleasure to the boys and girls.
The sixth week was used to set up an event known as Play Day, un- usual to this section of the country. All girls gathered on the Civic Field and the boys at the Senior High School field to indulge in group games and individual skill competition. A watermelon feast ended a day replete with pleasure.
It was with keen pleasure that we awaited the seventh week of Play- grounds because on Friday of that week we were to be the guests of the Boston Red Sox management at a double-header between St. Louis and the Red Sox. Seven busses were needed to transport all the boys who desired to go, and some of the girls went in on that day with their elders. Other girls under their instructors enjoyed an historical trip in and about Boston.
In the eighth week all team championships were decided, as well as individual championships in tennis. The annual track meet for boys and girls was held on Tuesday and the Elks Playground won both meets.
Final Exhibition
A Mardi Gras theme was chosen for the annual Playground Exhibition held on Thursday of the final week, and it consisted of a series of stunts by the boys, and dances typifying folk-tunes and a dance-drama were enacted by the girls. A parade, in which the boys and girls followed with pride the champion Legion band of the Norwood Post, preceded the Ex- hibition at the Civic Field. Floats and costumed characters made this parade a colorful event.
Twilight League
Fourteen teams formed our Junior and Old Timers' Twilight League this year, and a more than satisfactory season was enjoyed. The Junior League teams engaged in two competitive games each week, while the Old Timers played but one game a week. The winner of the first half Junior Championship, the Norwood Press, opposed the winner of the second half, the Shattucks, in a series in September, captured by the Press in two straight contests for the League Championship.

Tennis
More emphasis was placed on tennis with the idea that this was an activity which could be carried over into later life. For that reason classes in tennis for novices were inaugurated, instructed by volunteers. At the close of the season a novice tournament for boys, and one for girls was conducted along the lines of the Junior and Senior Tournaments. In addition matches were arranged for our boy and girl representatives with the Newton playgrounds.
Conclusion
The fine attendance and spirit shown throughout the season of 1934 can be attributed to the splendid leadership of the individual instructors. A continuance of such leadership will make of our playground system an institution that will strengthen our town citizenship.
Respectfully yours,
THOMAS F. O'DONNELL, Playground Supervisor

PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT
Mr. W. C. Kendrick,
General Manager,
Norwood, Massachusetts.
Dear Sir:
I herewith submit my report as Superintendent of the Public Works Department for the year 1934.
During the year 1934, in addition to the work executed with the regular appropriations for the Public Works Department, many projects were completed with funds furnished by the Emergency Relief Administration. The acquisition of this money helped to alleviate the unemployment situa- tion to a considerable degree.
The complete program of construction work as voted at the Annual Town Meeting was completed within the appropriations allotted.
A list of completed E. R. A. Projects follows:
Widening corner of Chapel and Old Washington Streets. This included setting curb and rebuilding stone wall.
Widening corner of Clapboardtree Street and Upland Road. Corner widened, street built and bankings sloped and seeded.
Callahan, Shattuck and Winslow School Grounds were graded, covered with loam and seeded.
Permanent Colprovia Sidewalks were constructed on Atwood and Savin Avenues.
Wooden Bleacher Construction at Elliot Park.
Approximately ten acres of grading and loaming at Endean Park Play- ground.
Sewer laterals were constructed on Hawthorne, Sycamore, Lincoln, Cypress and Winter Streets.
Everett Street drain and catch basin construction.
Fisher Street Extension was constructed with a thirty-three foot gravel roadway, from the Estate of Frank G. Allen to Nichols Street.
Pleasant Street was extended from Neponset Street to the New State Highway. The proper drainage was installed and a permanent street constructed with six inch stone penetration. On both sides of the street a retaining wall was built and a cable fence with concrete posts erected.
A large crew of men were used in cutting wood for the Welfare Depart- ment at the Westover Development.
Moth Control Work was carried on throughout the wooded sections of the Town.
Highway Department Maintenance
The regular maintenance work was carried on during the course of the entire year, and in addition several highway resurfacing jobs were com-
209
pleted with Highway Maintenance Funds. Among these were 1417 square yards of six inch stone penetration resurfacing on Phillips Avenue Extension and Beacon Avenue.

Highway Construction
A footpass on Cedar Street, under the tracks of the N. Y., N. H. and H. R. R. was built. This work consisted of excavating through the railroad banking, between old abuttments, and the setting of two forty ton concrete plates. These were placed on the abuttments and the side- walls reinforced with a six inch concrete face. Concrete wing-walls were then built parallel with the railroad on each side and a granolithic walk was constructed, connecting with the present walks. Proper drainage was made and the street on the west side of the footpass resurfaced with six inch stone penetration.
Considerable grading work has been done on Nahatan Street Extension, but it will be necessary to carry this work into the coming year.

Sewer Construction
Through the cooperation of the Public Works Administration, who furnished one-third of the necessary funds, it was possible to construct on Pleasant Street a thirty inch monolithic sewer line. This work began at the Metropolitan Sewer Line on Pleasant Street and continued through a right-of-way on Morrill Ink Works, Norwood Gas Company and Rail- road property to the Town of Norwood Sewer Pumping Station. This was extremely heavy construction, starting at a depth of twenty-six feet and gradually reducing in depth to twelve feet at the pumping station. Two shifts of men, each shift working five hours a day, were employed from August until January 1, 1935. At this writing the job is nearly com- pleted.

REPORT OF LIGHT DEPARTMENT
Mr. W. C. Kendrick, General Manager, Norwood, Massachusetts.
Dear Sir:
It is with a certain amount of satisfaction that the annual report of this Department is submitted for your inspection.
We have gone over the top again this year in our output of kilowatts of electricity. This increase has mostly been due to the electricity used by our power customers. The domestic customers have shown very little increase in the consumption of electricity for the year.
The only station equipment additions made during the year were two voltage regulators and protecting fuses for our main bus potential trans- formers and station service. The 3000 kilowatt transformer that was installed at the Station in 1933 was put into service March 3 of this year and has been supplying the Town all the electric energy since that date without trouble of any sort.
In addition to our regular maintenance work, two other projects have been completed:
1. The installation of a new underground primary feeder from the Station along Central, Nahatan and Washington Streets to Day Street which assures the Town's Center and adjacent side streets better service with very remote possibilities of any long outages.
2. The resetting of 90 poles and rebuilding of the entire distribution line on Pleasant Street from Cross Street to the East Walpole line.
