uled to play its games on Saturday evenings in Boston. Most of the young people who ordinarily attend the Saturday Dances attend the games. It is planned to resume the program at the end of the high school hockey season.


During 1959, the sum of $1,715.00 was collected in admissions to the Friday and Saturday dances, said sum having been turned in to the Treasurer to be credited to the General Fund.


Boys Activities


Supervision is provided at the gym in Swimming Pool Hall of the Recreation Center each afternoon after school and on Saturdays until noon from early November through mid April. Boys of all ages and sizes are able to play basketball and take part in other suitable programs under supervision, with each boy attending invited to participate. Many boys not capable for various reasons of participating in more highly organized sports activities, can through this more or less informal program, take part in wholesome and enjoyable com- petition. Attendance varies according to the schedule of outside activities, but there are never less than twenty-five present at a session, and often as many as fifty are on hand.


Symphony Orchestra


The Norwood-Norfolk County Orchestra, made up of amateur musicians from Norwood and surrounding communities has continued to be very popular. During 1959 there were approximately thirty members of all ages who availed themselves of the opportunity to get together once a week from September through May to play classical, semi-classical, and popular music. The Orchestra presented concerts in Norwood, Canton, and Brockton during the year. Re- hearsals are held in the first floor hall of the Recreation Center, a much more suitable site than Memorial Hall of the Municipal Building where they were previously held.


In early December of 1959, the Recreation Department sponsored for the sixth consecutive year, the Norwood Christmas Festival of Music before a capac- ity audience at the Norwood Junior High School. Ten choirs from seven of Norwood's churches presented selections of their own, with all ten choirs joining together to form a combined choir of well over two hundred voices for selections to climax the evening's program. The Festival was a most fitting way of ushering in the Christmas season in Norwood. The Department is most grateful to the local church officials, the choir directors, the choir members, the members of the Norwood-Norfolk County Orchestra that played at the Festival, and to Director Raymond F. Fleck, and to all others who had a part in this outstanding evening of music. The fine spirit prevailing in connection with this event reflects the good fellowship and mutual respect that exists among Norwood's various church groups.


Miscellaneous


During the year, the Department was able to assist individuals and organi- zations in Norwood with related problems and projects. The Department co- operated too with other municipal departments in such things as coasting streets, skating areas, lighting of areas, maintenance of areas, etc. The Superintendent appeared before local organizations to speak of functions of the Department. He

prepared material for distribution to new-comers to Norwood through the Wel- come Wagon. The Superintendent cooperated in the study of the question of establishing a Council for the Aging in Norwood. He served again as Chairman of Water Safety for the Norwood Branch of the American Red Cross.


Conclusion


The accomplishments outlined in the preceding report could not have been realized without the continuing cooperation and assistance of the Board of Selectmen, the General Manager, the Selectmen's Recreation Advisory Committee, and many other official and unofficial bodies. We are also most grateful to the many people who were employed in various programs of the Recreation Depart- ment during 1959 for their loyalty and fine performance of duties. As we have emphasized many times, good leadership is the key to successful recreation programs. Norwood has had the benefit of outstanding leadership.


With each succeeding year, the Recreation Departemtn moves closer to its goal of providing worthwhile leisure time activities for all segments of Norwood's population. Not content to rest on its laurels, the Department will continue to attempt to meet the needs of its ever growing population. The Department needs and seeks the continuing support of all in order that it may continue to offer good programs and good facilities, so that all may in some way enjoy their leisure hours.

TOWN OF NORWOOD


REPORT OF NORWOOD HOUSING AUTHORITY


1959


Meetings: First and third Wednesdays of the month at 7:30 P.M. in Room 24 of the Norwood Municipal Building.


Members: Chairman, John E. Bamber; Vice Chairman, Joseph Long; Treasurer, Roger J. Connolly; Assistant Treasurer, John L. Griffin; State Ap- pointee, Frank L. Walsh (appointed to fill unexpired term of John J. Mulvehill who resigned ).


Personnel: Executive Director and Secretary, Lawrence J. O'Brien; Ac- countant, Sullivan & Schwartz; Legal Representative, Atty. Dennis P. O'Leary; Insurance Broker, John C. Metters.


The Norwood Housing Authority was formed in 1948 to administer all types of public housing. At present, the Authority has jurisdiction over Wash- ington Heights, a 75 unit State-aided Veterans Housing Development erected under Chapter 200 of the State Housing Laws. This development is located at Roosevelt Avenue-Jefferson Drive. It was completed in December of 1950. Its main purpose is to provide decent living accommodations for veterans of low- income at rents they can afford to pay. There is a maximum admission limit on income and a maximum continued occupancy limit. This varies according to the number of children or dependents. Once a tenant exceeds the income limits, he must vacate the premises within a reasonable length of time. There has been almost a complete turnover since the initial occupancy in 1950, and there are still about 100 active applications on file. There were no major improvements made this year, but the Authority plans to replace some 40 electric ranges this year, 75 combination doors with metal doors, and window shades throughout.


In December of 1958, the Town voted to erect 50 Housing Units for the Elderly. This project hit a snag when the Town Meeting voted postponement three times on transfer of Town-owned land to the Authority for the construction of this development. Finally, in December of 1959, the land was transferred to the Authority. If everything goes well, construction on Housing for the Elderly should begin by July of this year, and the development should be completed by late November or early December.


The Authority wishes to take this opportunity to thank all Town Depart- ments and officials for their cooperation throughout the past year.

Dear Sir:


Herewith is the 1959 report of the Cemetery Department.


During the past year we conducted 182 Funerals and made three (3) Transfers. We have had no burials at the Old Cemetery, nevertheless main- tenance of the Old Cemetery had to be kept up.


We built 72 Foundations for monuments and set 35 Markers, adding that many to the large number already set, all of which must be kept trimmed through- out the growing season.


We built 300 lineal feet of bituminous concrete walks in the Single Grave sections.


A block of Single Graves was laid out West of Section 45 and Bituminous Walks built.


Sections 45 and 46 was turned over and got ready to be laid out for lots and single graves.


The Winter Street section was started to be turned over in November, drains and Water pipes were laid, Manholes and Catch Basins have been built.


Mowing and trimming of grass was continuous all Summer.


I would recommend a three car overhead garage to house and store the truck and equipment, and also for storage of supplies.


Respectfully submitted,


JAMES F. MURPHY, Supt.
