At the enclosed athletic field bordering Alewife Brook, a permanent concrete field house should be constructed with all modern equipment (about $10,000 is available at the present time) and the remaining area graded as soon as pos- sible; when completed as originally designed the city will own one of the best recreation fields in the vicinity. (In the 1910 report, plan shows proposed complete laying out).
The Mason Street tennis lot, corner of Broadway, has been sold to private parties for building purposes and the money received for same used in grading the new playground area situated adjacent to the Western Junior High School building,-the Shaw Playground. There seems to be a grow- ing demand for recreation fields to be located at the school buildings for the use of school athletics.
The city has become so densely populated ·(averaging nearly 25,000 people a square mile) that some of the larger park areas should be more extensively utilized for public rec- reation and physical training purposes; on several of the playfields concrete buildings should be constructed in place of the old wooden structures, additional apparatus and shel- ters provided on some of the principal parks and playgrounds for the smaller children's pleasure, where a regular park em- ployee can have the care of the same, and some of the smaller playground areas should be enclosed by wire fencing for the protection of children.
In certain localities of the city, well-lighted playgrounds, during the summer evenings, should be maintained for the young men and women working in the factories daily.
A splendid opportunity exists at the present time to es- tablish a good sized recreation field for the East Somerville and Winter Hill districts by developing the northeasterly end of Foss Park, (formerly Broadway Park) the city owns the land, so that any expenditure made would be wholly for con- struction purposes. The area of this park is approximately 16 acres. and the topography has not been changed in 50 years time, (the enclosed area of the athletic field, bordering Ale- wife Brook. in the westerly part of the city is about 5 acres).
A plan has been made showing a re-designing and new layout of Foss Park area which would be, when completely constructed, an additional playfield and beneficial in a num- ber of ways for the easterly part of the city.
In connection with the departmental work the Welfare and Recreation Commission, the Playgrounds Association and Women's Clubs have been of great assistance in advising,

directing and promoting the city's welfare. (Details, etc., in Commission's and Association reports) .
The total expenditure by the city departments and other Associations for recreation and play the past year has been approximately $25,000.00.

Respectfully submitted,
