REPORT OF THE WAYLAND BOARD OF PARK COMMISSIONERS FOR THE YEAR 1937
The town now has about sixty acres of park land. This includes two tennis courts, two baseball fields, two general play- grounds, a skating pond and several centrally located grass plots, as well as the undeveloped areas. The appropriation for the year was $200.
Last spring both tennis courts were thoroughly conditioned and equipped and the Cochituate Bathing Beach grounds were put in shape and a sand box built there. During the year the various grounds and facilities were maintained to the greatest extent possible under the appropriation and with the help of workers made available through the Welfare Department. The two town flagpoles were maintained and flags flown regularly on holidays.
A tennis tournament, in which sixty contestants partici- pated, was sponsored by the Board, with the assistance of a committee consisting of Elmer Bigwood and James B. Ames. The winners of the various divisions were as follows: Men's Division, Edwin B. Goodell; Women's Division, Katherine Sears; Boys' Division, Charles Smith; Girls' Division, Romaine Pushee. Silver cups, donated by Mrs. D. Abbott Ames and Mr. Albert H. Beck, were awarded to each of these winners.
The Board participated in the improvement of park land adjoining the High School under a Federal project conducted by the Selectmen.
The Board has started development of the park land at the Mill Pond in Wayland by closing the dump there, starting to clean up the area, and, with the assistance of the Planning Board, laying out a general plan and a Federal project for its improvement.
Steps were taken to improve skating conditions at the Mill Pond as much as possible within the limits of the appropriation.
187
The Board built a temporary dam to raise the water level and a skating shelter was built by volunteer workers in co-operation with the Board. Among those who volunteered for this project were Gregory Cooper, Frederick S. Whiteside, G. Seth Nichols, Alfred C. Whiting, Edward Dickson, Maurice Williams, Robert M. Morgan and Albert E. Sanderson, Jr. To avoid congestion and accident, the Board limited use of this skating pond to resi- dents of the town and their guests.
During the year the Board has improved its records by securing copies of the deeds of all park land, without expense. The Planning Board is making available copies of existing plans covering nearly all such land.
The following rules and regulations, violations of which are punishable by fine up to $20, have been adopted by the Board :
Within the public parks, except with the prior consent of the Board, it is forbidden :
1. To dump or otherwise place or leave within the bounds of any such park any rubbish or refuse of any kind.
2. To remove loam, gravel or earth of any kind from any such park.
3. To cut or injure in any way any tree, shrub or other plant.
4. To injure or deface any fence or other structure.
5. To dig holes in or otherwise deface any such park.
6. To fish, or cut holes, through the ice on any body of water in any such park.
7. To remove, alter, deface, destroy or otherwise tamper with any sign erected by the Park Board.
Respectfully submitted,
JOHN E. LINNEHAN, JAMES BOLTON, ROGER E. ELA, Board of Park Commissioners.

WORKS PROGRESS ADMINISTRATION
To the Citizens of the Town of Wayland :
The Works Progress Administration has been very active in the town and has accomplished some very good projects.
During the year of 1937 the town received a large cut in personal, due to an economy program established by the Works Progress Administration, and owing to this cut in personal it left the full cost of purchasing and of moving of materials to projects on the town, and increased the expense of running a project considerable more than was planned, and therefore on two particular projects, namely ; Grading of grounds around new High School with resurfacing of road and the Dudley Pond Bathing Beach Projects.
The cost of these projects was very great and in order to complete these projects the high costs could not be avoided without having poor looking projects.
The townspeople should be very proud of these projects, because a good many children with their mothers will enjoy this bathing beach project, especially during the summer months, and a large quantity of sand was spread on the beach so as the children might have a nice sandy beach to play on.
In the early part of 1937 a bulletin was received by all sponsors, stating that in the future no W.P.A. personal on pro- jects shall leave the projects and that all materials needed on projects shall be loaded and trucked by outside labor other than W.P.A. labor assigned to projects, meaning a much greater cost to the town on all projects where loading and trucking is required.

REPORT OF THE WAYLAND WATER BOARD
To the Inhabitants of the Town of Wayland :
The Board organized with Walter Bigwood, Chairman; Alfred C. Damon, Secretary and Collector ; Alfred A. Lamar- ine was reappointed Superintendent, and Charles Potvin ap- pointed Engineer.
The Board wishes to call your attention to rules 1 and 2 on your water bill, namely: (1) All water rates shall be due and payable at the Commissioner's Office semi-annually in ad- vance on the twentieth day of February and August. (2) The Superintendent has been instructed and is required to shut off the water from all services not paid on or before these dates. If these rules are not complied with, drastic measures will have to be taken.
With the steady increase of consumers each year, the Board feels that it will be necessary for the Town to increase the well and pumping capacity of the present system.

PUMPING STATION .
The engines and pumps were overhauled and put in the best possible working condition. No trouble was had with the wells during the entire year. The most serious condition the water department has is the question of supplying enough water in hot and dry weather. It is getting worse each year as more ser- vices are added. No extra pumping was needed during the month of June as there was plenty of rain. In July and August more water was used some days than could be pumped running night and day. The use of hose had to be cut down to keep the supply from running out.

REPORT OF CEMETERY COMMISSIONERS
The Board of Cemetery Commissioners organized with A. W. Bradshaw as Chairman, and W. D. Valentine as Clerk, William Read, who had served as clerk for many years, having asked to be relieved of the work. On May 15, Mr. Read resigned from the board on account of his health, and the vacancy thus created was filled in July by the appointment of Mrs. Gertrude I. M. Parmenter at a joint meeting of the Select- ment and the Commissioners.
Four perpetual care gifts have been received in the course of the year, totalling $575.00, as follows :
From F. G. MacKenna, a gift of $150.00 to establish the Samuel H. Mackenna Fund, for perpetual care of lots No. 175 and 177 in the North Cemetery ;
From Oria J. Perry, the sum of $200.00 to establish the Joanna B. Perry Fund, for perpetual care of lot No. 226, North Cemetery ;
From Dudley H. Clulow, the sum of $125.00 to estab- lish the Charles Drury Roby Fund, for perpetual care and decoration of lot No. 15, North Cemetery ;
From Mrs. Annie J. Ward, the sum of $100.00 to establish the Willard B. Ward Fund, for perpetual care of lots No. 151 and 156, Center Cemetery.
This makes a total of $21,625.00 of perpetual care funds, the income to be used for the care of the designated lots.
Twenty-four lot owners paid for annual care of their lots, a total of $82.70, which was used as directed.
Two burial lots in the North Cemetery during the year, and ten lots and one single grave were sold in Lakeview ; receipts for these, together with a balance of $20.00 received for a lot previously sold make a total fund of $325.00 deposited in the town treasury to be reappropriated for "General Improve- ment" in 1938.
195
The sale of these lots leaves a reserve of less than sixty full-sized lots now available for sale in Lakeview Cemetery- enough for only a few years. A prudent regard for the future would point out the wisdom of soon securing other land which may be used for burial purposes, in order that it may be made ready for use when needed.
About 150 feet of the main avenue in the North Cemetery has been thoroughly rebuilt, doing away with a spot always deep in mud in the spring. A good beginning has been made on the long delayed repairs on the tomb at Lakeview Cemetery, out of the year's funds. The roof has been cemented over and water-proofed, a footing built under the front wall, and retain- ing walls of field stone constructed to hold the earth banks on either side. It is planned to complete this work in 1938, also to rebuild and coat with asphalt the steep slope of road above the soldier's lot, which has been a yearly source of expense for repairs ; and to rebuild a portion, at least, of the main avenue, from the entrance to the tomb.
ARTHUR W. BRADSHAW, Chairman, GERTRUDE I. M. PARMENTER, WARREN D. VALENTINE, Clerk.
