The Board of Health for the year ending 1943 con- sisted of Dr. Nicholas J. Capece, Chairman; Harris Tre- deau, Frank Calzone and Louis A. Marino, Clerk.

A leave of absence was granted by the Board to Charles Ferrante, plumbing Inspector. John Power, as- sistant, was appointed as temporary plumbing inspector.


During the year the Board of Health has held twenty- four regular meetings and two special meetings.


At the March meeting the following appointments were made by the Board of Health: Meat and Provision Inspectors, Jeremiah Macchi and Dr. Benjamin F. Hart- man as assistant; Sanitary Inspector, Walter Chapin; Physician, Dr. Francis H. Lally; Health Nurse, Alice Fitz- patrick; Dentist, Dr. William J.

REPORT OF HEALTH BOARD PHYSICIAN


In the year 1943, as in all previous years, the pupils of the Sacred Heart and St. Mary's schools were given phys- ical examinations with the assistance of the Health Board nurse. It was most gratifying to note that 90% of nose and throat pathology found in 1942 had been eradicated, and the teeth defects as well, had been given proper at- tention. Although food is rationed, the children had not suffered from a nutritional standpoint, and personal hy- giene was excellent.


Vaccination clinics were held in the Board of Health rooms on June 3rd and 10th, 130 children attending.


The diphtheria clinics were conducted in the Lynch Auditorium of the High school on October 8th and 22nd, November 5th and 19th, when 212 children received the three necessary inoculations.


In comparing the contagious diseases reported in 1943 with those in 1942, the following is noted:


Meningitis 5 none in 1942 Dog bites 28% less than in 1942 Mumps 15% less than in 1942


Measles 361 9 in 1942


124


Scarlet fever, whooping cough and pneumonia were practically the same as the previous year.


We were most fortunate in not having a single case of Poliomyelitis, although it has been more prevalent throughout the state than for the past six years.


The diptheria record is again most gratifying. NOT A SINGLE CASE. Parents at last recognize the ef- ficiency of the inoculations to prevent this dread disease, and support the clinic for this purpose, 100%.


Late in the fall, a 'grippe' epidemic began which spared neither young or old, and as we go to press, we are about on the crest of the wave. Although it is not com- parable to that of 1918, nevertheless its consequences have been serious; ear conditions and pneumonia. This has caused many absentees in all local schools.


F. H. LALLY, M.D., Physician to Health Board.

All pupils of the first four grades of both schools were given appointments to visit the school dentist Dr. W. Clancy and corrections of teeth made by him.

SANITARY INSPECTOR'S REPORT, 1943


To the Honorable Board of Health:


Gentlemen:


Following is my report for the year 1943. We had forty complaints of different natures in various parts of the town which were investigated and settled to the satis- faction of all concerned.


There were seven cases of Scarlet Fever placarded. Ten "No Dumping" signs were put up in various parts of town.


On order of Selectmen one store was inspected for license.


Took samples of well water at No. 300 Congress St., for analysis by State Board.


Made inspections of all toilets of all liquor establish- ments, clubs, etc.


Six bake shops inspected.


Will say in closing that the new ruling by the board which was made about the middle of the year in regards to complaints, that is, all complaints must be in writing before any action could be taken, did a great deal to elim- inate a lot of the petty complaints that I have had in past years.

WALTER H. CHAPIN, Sanitary Inspector.

Report of the Park Commissioners Year 1943


To the Citizens of the Town of Milford:


We hereby submit our annual report with financial report appended for the year 1943.


The three parks under our jurisdiction, namely, Cal- zone, Bancroft and Draper Parks were all given general care during the year We were fortunate this year regard- less of the labor shortage to have capable and willing em- ployees. All that we could do with our limited funds for the care of the parks was done.


The playgrounds were open this year for a full eight weeks. They were handled by a good staff of instructors. Especially noticeable was the increasing attendance of children of pre-primary age. This is due perhaps to their parents working. In this way, the Park Department helped in a small way in the war effort. Games of all sorts were enjoyed and the annual picnic at Mendon was held.


We wish to thank all who helped us in any way to make this a successful season for the Park Department.


Respectfully Submitted,


LOUIS W. BENOTTI, Chairman, WALTER L. FITZGERALD, CHRISTOPHER C. MORCONE.

Tax Collector's Report for 1943


To the Board of Selectmen and the Citizenry of Milford: -


As your Tax Collector, I am delighted to submit the yearly report of the activities of this office.


The receipts are considered very favorable as per accompanying sheet showing committed taxes and re- sulting action.


The balance due is nearly $61,000 less than one year ago, a drop of twenty-eight per cent. It represents the good will and good intentions of many people that are trying to clean up their back bills.


I believe that I would be very ungrateful if I did not say thank you to each and every one that helped in any way to make this a pleasant year for,
