ANNUAL REPORTS
ficient and economical methods of disposal, but no plan has been adopted.
The drainage system, built as required by the growth of the city, is composed of units of different type and age. Repairs, additions and alterations due to deterioration or changing con- ditions are necessary very frequently.
Fifty-four permits have been issued for private drain con- nections from buildings to sewers or storm drains, twenty-five of these being for repairs, alterations or extensions. All work is done subject to inspection by this department.
Many of the repairs and alterations were made necessary by the growth of tree roots into the private drain pipe. In several cases, these private drains were relaid with iron pipe and compound joints.
Only persons that are licensed as drain layers by the city, and who have given satisfactory bonds are permitted to lay and repair private drains.
Data concerning each drain connection with the public sewer is on file in this office, and time and expense could be saved by the owner, by applying directly to this department for investigation and advice, where trouble exists.
Many car track catch basins and underground conduit manholes built by public service corporations have been con- nected with the city's drainage system.
A special ordinance should be enacted to enforce a better system of grease traps in the premises of some of the larger manufacturing plants and rendering companies to prevent large amounts of grease and waste products from escaping into city sewer mains and partially blocking sections of sewers as has occured at various times.
There are to date about 18,548 private drain connections with the city's drainage system.
PARKS AND PLAYGROUNDS DIVISION
This division has the control and maintenance of seventeen parcels of land, (about 75 acres) laid out as parks and recre- ation playgrounds in about equal proportions.

These areas if completely developed would compare favor- ably with other cities in the vicinity.

The city has become so densely populated (averaging near- ly 26,000 people a square mile) that some of the larger park areas should be more extensively utilized for public recreation and physical training purposes. In several parks, field houses should be constructed, additional apparatus and shelters pro- vided and some of the smaller playground areas should be en- closed by wire fencing for protection.
In September of this year this department furnished and had permanently installed in a boulder in the second diamond outside Dilboy Field a bronze tablet to the memory of Thomas C. Tevlin, caretaker of the field, who died on May fourth, nine- teen hundred and thirty-seven. This second diamond was dedi- cated Thomas C. Tevlin Feld. Thomas C. Tevlin was a World War Veteran and had been employed in this department for exactly twenty-three years, from May fourth, nineteen hundred and fourteen to May fourth, nineteen hundred and thirty-seven, the day of his death.

ANNUAL REPORTS
The work of enlarging, equipping and manning our parks and playgrounds and the acquiring of new areas for play- grounds should be extended as rapidly as finances will permit. A definite plan of action should be developed for the above so that the work may be done in a systematic and progressive manner.
Previous reports are respectfully referred to for suggest- ions and recommendations for improvement of park and play- ground areas.
LEON G. AYER
On December thirty-first, nineteen hundred and thirty-seven, Mr. Leon G. Ayer, City Engineer, retired after a service of forty years in the Engin- eering Department.
In 1897 be entered the employ of the Engi- neering Department as rodman. In January 1936 he was appointed City Engineer. During these forty years of excellent service to the City, Leon G. Ayer witnessed and was part of the growth of the City of Somerville, and was actively engaged in the construction of the drainage system, as well as the excellent Park and Playground facilities we have in this city.
His associates in this department wish him many years of happiness.
Respectfully submitted,
THOMAS E. HEGARTY, City Engineer.
