The same action should be considered in the Crocker Pond Area in Wrentham and for the same reason. Other land in Foxboro adjacent to Wading River may possibly be sold for a housing development. This area should be studied for pur- chase also. Land around the Bank Street well between Bank Street and Holden Street on the Bungay River should be purchased to prevent building thereon. Bungay River shows pollution now.
All of the suggestions mentioned in the report for 1962 are equally important at this writing and will be briefly repeated; a roof supported by columns only at end of highway garage to cover salt and sand for ice control and protection of mobile equipment now parked in the open, for sidewalk snow plowing units, snow blower for business district or emergency areas caused by drifting, twelve to fourteen ton tandem road roller for base construction and Type I surfacing. Truck replacement started in 1962, if continued each year will eventually provide the department with modern dependable units that can be traded every seven or eight years with a much higher value than if they were to be retained twenty years in service.
The small one-third yard truck mounted backhoe should be replaced with a modern faster unit, mobile and self-contained. The old unit is thirteen years old, has seen much serviced and parts are not easily obtained. New unit would be used for trench excavation and emergency use in the Water Department.
My thanks is extended to all of the Public Works Department personnel for their co-operation which made a successful year possible, the Municipal Gov- ernment for understanding our problems and for primary approval of many pro- jects, also, all other city employees and department heads for their response and assistance in our daily work.
Yours truly, Russell F. Tennant Superintendent of Public Works

Annual Report
REPORT OF THE HOUSING AUTHORITY 1963
To the Honorable Mayor, Cyril K. Brennan and Municipal Council:
Dear Sirs:
The Attleboro Housing Authority held twelve regular meetings and several special meetings during the year 1963-1964. All meetings were well attended by all members.
The 200-1 Veterans Project of 92 units now has been in operation since 1952. The project has at all times been fully occupied with the exception of the time element necessary during the moving and replacement of tenants.
During the past year the Authority has expended a good deal of money in an effort to level, grade, and make available a play area for the children of this project. Official basketball courts were erected and black-top marked for games. Two acres were leveled and grassed in for other games and exercises, however the Authority has found that this is seldom used by the younger children. The Authority will maintain this play area and hopes that it will be used more during this coming year.
The 667-1-Project is now in its second year and has at all times been fully occupied with a large waiting list. The grounds and buildings have been well maintained.
The Authority due to pressure from persons wishing to have an apartment in this project started a study for the building of forty-one additional units. The Authority selected S. S. Eisenberg as Architect and Edmund F. Henry as Attorney and after much research plans were drawn for a new development. Bids were opened on December 12, 1963 and the contract to construct the units was awarded to Northgate Construction Co. , of Waltham, as low bidder. The work is expected to start in February of 1964.
The records of this Authority were audited by the State Auditor under the direction of Thomas Buckley and a favorable report was printed by that office.
The Authority wishes to thank all the departments of the city for the great help and consideration the several departments have given during the past year.
Respectfully submitted, John E. Turner, Chairman Leland B. Smith, Vice-Chairman Leonard I Lamb, Member Robert S. Cassidy, Asst. Treasurer William F. Walton, Treasurer

Annual Report
REPORT OF THE RECREATION COMMISSION 1963
To His Honor the Mayor, and the Honorable Municipal Council:
During the year 1963, all the athletic fields and playgrounds in charge of the Recreation Commission were maintained in the usual manner, and the ordinary work of the department was carried out.
Hayward Field was in good condition for the High School activities during the year and was used for graduation exercises. The department received a letter of thanks from the High School Faculty for its excellent co-operation during the school months. Hayward Field was shared with the Regional High School for football activities. It was also used for Little League football under the direc- tion of Mr. Pichi and Mr. Heagney.
Horton Field was used by grade schools for baseball and in the spring and summer for softball.
Finberg Park was again used largely by Little League in all three areas and attracted large crowds of adults in the early evening.
A new backstop was installed by the department at the new diamond used by Little League and in the original baseball area a new backstop was installed by the Bliss family. Many thanks to them for their generosity and public spirit.
At South Attleboro, Veterans' Memorial Park was in use all season for Little League baseball and football in the early fall, at which time several night games were played and largely attended. The swimming pool was again the center of attraction during the summer months under the direction of William Liberatore, Joan Mahoney, and Joyce Mendrzychowski. The season ended with the usual Water Festival at which time prizes were awarded.

Annual Report
REPORT OF THE PARK DEPARTMENT 1963
To the Mayor and the Municipal Council:
I herewith submit my 18th annual report as Superintendent of Capron Park which is for the year 1963.
The sudden death of Park Commissioner James P. McBrien on November 22, 1963 is a serious loss to the Commission and to the city. Mr. McBrien took a keen interest in the park and worked willingly and diligently to further its best interests.
During the year the usual maintenance of lawns, flower beds, animals and trees was carried on. The rose garden was beautiful and had many admiring visitors. The band concerts were well attended and I feel that the .Attleboro Concert Band deserves commendation for its performances and quality of music furnished at these concerts. "King" our 21-year old lion died of cancer during the year and a pair of lion cubs were donated to the park by the Lion's Club and are now occupying his former home.
The year 1963 is outstanding because of the completion of the Samuel M. Stone Memorial Rain Forest. This is a unique exhibit given to the city by the family of Samuel M. Stone, Sr. , in memory of his long and devoted service to the park. Its planning covered a period of six years. Finally after talks, trips, and inter- views, ground was broken in April and the exhibit was completed and dedicated on October 3, 1963. It was opened to the public on October 4th and it's been re- ceived by the public with enthusiasm beyond all our expectations. On ( ober 21st in a period of 8 1/2 hours 4, 326 persons visited the Rain Forest. This sure is by actual count.
Many people contributed to the building of this exhibit and I feel that some mention should be made of them at this writing - Mr. Lawrence Curtis , Director of the Fort Worth Zoo, who planted the first thought of such an ex- hibit and also served as a consultant during its construction but whose interest and encouragement were invaluable; Mr. Adolph Adoukis, a representative of the Roehr, Bros. Nursery who gave up a week-end of his time to work with us in the planting; Mr. Walter Stone, Director of the Franklin Park Zoo, and Mr. Lee Finneran, Director of the New England Aquarium who gave unstintingly of their time; Mr. Tom Westcott of Westcott Construction Co. , builder of the exhibit, whose personal interest was most stimulating. These are but a few of the peo- ple who contributed to the success of this project, however to make personal mention of each and every one would be impossible at this time. Their reward comes in the pleasure of the visitors to the Samuel M. Stone Memorial Rain Forest.
I feel that Capron Park is at a point where decisions must be made as to its future. Nothing remains at a standstill and that is the big question before us . now are we going ahead or are we to remain at our status quo? We receive many complimentary words regarding the appearance of the park but there are many things that need attention as well as new equipment and additions for better and more economical operation. Some of these things have been recommended in the past but the recommendations have fallen on deaf ears and therefore, I feel that it might be well to mention them again.

Annual Report
Report of the Park Department continued-
Memorial Bridge on North Main Street, a gift to the city from the late Haro! E. Sweet and dedicated to the veteran's of World War I, needs repairing badly
The walls of the duck pond at Capron Park need to be rebuilt.
The swimming pool at the park should be replaced. The present one leaks badly and has also become obsolete by present day standards.
These are a few of the requests on which no action has been taken. In the meantime costs are constantly rising and when action is finally taken, in some cases it will have doubled.
Figures on the cost of operating the Park Department are contained in the report of the City Auditor and I see no need of duplicating them in this report.
In closing I would like to extend my thanks to the Mayor and members of the Municipal Council. I am appreciative of the fact that the park is but one of the departments requiring their attention, I would also like to extend my thanks to the other departments of the city that have co-operated so willingly with the Park Department - the Police Department, the Fire Department, the Public Works Department, the Electrical Branch of the Fire . Department, and the Forestry Department. This interdepartmental co-operation is invaluable.
My sincere thanks to the men who work for me so willingly and loyally.
Lastly - my grateful appreciation and thanks to the members of the Park Commission, Mr. Thomas G. Sadler, Jr., and Mr. William O. Sweet. I consider it my very good fortune to work for these men.
Respectfully. submitted, Robert W. Sharkey, Park Superintendent.
Thomas G. Sadler, Jr. , Chairman William O. Sweet, Secretary.
