ing thoughts so that you will have something to dis- cuss when time hangs heavy.


1. Seriously (and we mean it) consider the im- mediate contruction of proper indoor recreational facilities. Your Commission favors adding this unit to the present high school building and including in this unit proper town offices.


2. Improve the Williamsburg Recreation Field (bet- ter knows as the Old Baseball Field) so that it can be used for outdoor sports.


We wish to take this opportunity to thank those of you who have encouraged us to go on, and to thank those of you who have given your time and effort to bring re- creation to Williamsburg. We appreciate your sugges- tions and support.

Report of Board of Health


The Board of Health submits the following report for the period from January First to December Thirty First, 1948.


Mr. Albert Lawton was appointed Inspector of Slaughter, and Mr. Arthur Polmatier ,Inspector of Animals and Milk.


A Well Child Conference was held in both Williams- burg and Haydenville.


Regulations for Eating and Drinking Establishments were published and copies thereof were mailed, registered, to all such places in the township. Three inspections have been made during the year, and a much improved standard of cleanliness and sanitation has been achieved. Non-co- operative owners and operators will be asked to appear before the Licensing Board in order to insure a 100% co- operative record for our community.


Garbage collection has been very satisfactory, and its continuance is recommended. Rubbish collection has proven satisfactory and the Board of Health recommends that it be continued, perhaps at less frequent intervals.


The present disposal of sewage and waste into our main streams and their minor tributaries is a disgrace and a menace to the community. For the two thickly settled areas neither septic tanks nor cesspools provide a wholly practical answer. The Board recommends a study by our town engineer to suggest a possible plan by which sewage may be handled.


64


The pollution of our stream by thoughtless use of them for disposal of trash, waste and sewage is a menace to the public health and contrary to aesthetic standards. The Board urges prompt compliance with regulations in the disposal of garbage, and co-operation with village de- partments in the disposal of rubbish and wastes. The Board therefore urges all who can to install septic tanks or other methods of disposal, and urges an inspec- tion be required in the construction and installation of all disposal systems as set up.


The Board of Health has improved the appearance of the dumps, has plans and committments (not pecuniary) for their further improvement. Both dumps have had general state approval for a couple of years, and our system of care of them has been improved. It is urged that citizens observe the rules of use of the dumps, and the Board will take steps to protect the areas against mis- use.


Slaughter inspection has been thorough and careful. Milk and animal inspection has been frequent. Milk samples from all producers have been frequently analyzed. The Board reminds that those whose products go to mar- ket recognize their reponsibility to regulations, and meet requirements and standards of Public Health.


The Board has recorded and reported all communi- cable disease cases to the State. It has tested water to insure safety for public use. It has sought to clean the stream waters for the better use by swimmer and sports- men.


The Board of Health reminds the community that all matters likely to cause disease and infection are of indivi- duel concern and public interest. Everyone has a stake in cleanliness and sanitation. It is good sense to meet stan- dards and to ask for their enforcement.

Report of the Police Department


Streets were patrolled every week-end during the past year. There is too much fast driving in our town, but I believe that it is the same in all towns and we have less accidents than most towns of our size. Speeding and other traffic violations have dropped on week-ends and I believe the reason is because most motorists know that our streets are patrolled from Friday night to Sunday night.


Only one person was seriously injured in 1948.


6 persons slightly injured.


6 cars badly damaged.


3 cars stolen, all recovered.


4 dogs killed by autos.


108 operators stopped and given warning.


7 licenses suspended by registrar at request of police.


7 bicycles stolen, all recovered.


19 summons served for out of town police.


3 warrants served for out of town police.


12 minors picked up for injury to property.


$89.00 collected for injury to property.

FOR THE


YEAR ENDING DECEMBER 31, 1948

Report of the School Committee


Greetings :


It is with pleasure that we make this report of the activities of the school system for the year of 1948.


The goals of the year have been satisfactorily ac- complished as far as our resources provided. During the summer the Haydenville School Building was painted using the paint which was previously purchased by the town for the building in Haydenville held by the town for the Recreation Committee. We are grateful to the Se- lectmen for their progressive attitude in making this paint available for our use in the preservation of town property.


The needs of the janitors in the Helen E. James School were met in the purchase of a new power lawn- mower to replace the one that had served them so many years. The building in both villages were cleaned, and as much interior painting finished as could be done with our own workmen. At the Helen E. James Building a new electric service box was installed which was badly needed as a safety measure. The roof of the Haydenville Building needed spot patching to pass this year. It is necessary that major repairs be made to the roofs of both buildings. We anticipate in our 1949 budget to ac- complish this project.


With the opening of schools this fall we were indeed fortunate in having our teaching staff intact which yields to cooperation and progress. With the increased demand for commercial courses we added a new typewriter to the


70


system. In response to a request for a change in the school session hours for better coordination the schedule was arranged to cover a 9.00 to 3.00 day. We feel that all students will benefit by this change.


Mr. E. Russell Johndrow janitor of the Haydenville School resigned, we appointed Mr. G. Vernon Warner formerly janitor of the Helen E. James School head ja- nitor of the system. Mr Warner was assigned to the Haydenville School and Mr. H. Merrill Bisbee who was formerly Mr. Warner's assistant at Williamsburg to the Helen E. James School. With this plan it is possible for the janitors to work together in serving both buildings. This adjustment, together with the curtailing of the public use of the Helen E. James Building to Wednesday and Thursday evenings, upon the approval of the Super- intendent of Schools, permits the buildings to be operated on an economical basis.


The lighting systems of the classrooms in the Helen E. James Building caused interest among some of the parents and although they have met state inspection rules we compared conditions with other systems and caused a professional survey to be made. The survey recom- mendations were followed as our finances permitted, and the work was started during the Christmas vacation for the installation of new fixtures in five rooms.


We believe that every effort should be made to offer our young people a broad scope in the field of education. In educating our children we are insuring our future. The high costs of the present day are naturally reflected in our budget, but we will be maintaining a strong founda- tion toward the building of our future citizens.


We wish to thank the Superintendent, teachers and janitors for their support, cooperation and patience. It


71


has been our endeavor to serve the needs of the greatest number of persons in the effort of cooperation and good will.

Superintendent's Report


To the Members of the School Committee:


The annual report of the Superintendent of Schools is herewith submitted. It is the twenty-eighth of the present series and the forty-seventh since the establish- ment of this school union.


The school system will face a number of problems during the coming year. One that will require thought and consideration is that of providing a suitable place for our physical education and sports programs. What is needed is a properly equiped gymnasium. However, when one takes a larger view there is evidence that a new town hall and a recreation center are desirable. It is therefore suggested that, when a building is planned, it be so arranged that the large hall can be used for a town hall, gymnasium and a recreation center. All of the town business should be centered in this building so that there will be offices for the selectmen, the town clerk, the tax collector, the water board, school department, recrea- tion commission, treasurer, town accountant, assessors, board of health, and the fire department. This useful type of building would be of lasting value to the town. The gymnasium, which the Alumni Association has done so much to promote, can be built as a school project through the new School-Aid Law which allows Williams- burg 50% of the cost of school construction.


During the War and since the scarcity of materials, and inflated costs have kept repairs to our buildings at a minimum. Each building needs a new roof and the inter- iors should be redecorated. The survey of classroom


75


lighting made last summer showed that five classrooms at Williamsburg should have additional light. The work of installing new fixtures was begun during the Christmas vacation. At Haydenville the lighting was satisfactory. It rated about fifty percent above the State requirement. An improvement could be made at that school by installing oil burning equipment so that the work of caring for that building would be less. Now it is necessary for a man to shovel about forty tons of coal each year. To keep mud and dirt out of the building about seventy-five feet of the playground at the back of the building should be paved with a hard surface material. These suggested changes and improvements would be of great help in promoting the health, safety, and education of our children.


There were no changes in the personnel of teaching staff last June. This is unusual but gives us the advan- tage of a tabilized service without the difficulties of the adjustments which inexperienced teachers have to make.


The program for the high school was so that closing somes at 3:00 P.M. instead of at 2:20 P.M. as was the case last year. The extra period provides time for the prepara- tion of some home-work, music, debate preparation, other extra-curricular activities, and some regular classes. The school was organized as follows: Principal, Anne T. Dun- phy, two classes in Latin, and guidance work with all pupils; Mr. Robert Branch, five classes in mathematics, one in history ; Mr. Edward C. Foster, six classes in science, one in driver education, visual education service ; Mr. Ray- mond Williamson, five classes in English, one in speech training, debating and assembly programs; Mrs. Frances Grinnell, three classes in typing, one in shorthand, one in Junior Business, two in Office practice; Miss Doris Skri- vars, two in English, one in Business English, two in French, one in World History, and coach of girls' basket- ball; Miss Olive Healy, one in glee club, one in orchestra ;


76


Mr. Wilbur J. Eaton coach of boys' athletic teams. School is in session from 9:00 A.M. to 3:00 P.M. There are nine regular periods and a lunch period.


The grade schools in Williamsburg were organized as follows : Miss Martha Dickerman, grades seven and eight ; Mis Nelle Dolan, grades five and six; Mrs. Dorothy Col- burn, grades three and four; Mrs. Elizabeth Warren, grades two and three, Mrs. Sophia Eaton, grade one.


In Haydenville the assignments were: Miss Margaret Trainor, principal and grades seven and eight; Mrs. Mar- garet Shannon, grades five and six; Mrs. Marion Hickey, grades three and four; Miss Mary Crampton, grades one and two.


Serving all grades of the town are: Miss Olive Healy, music; Mrs. Olive Thayer, drawing; Mr. Crowe, penman- ship; and Mr. Wilbur J. Eaton, physical education.


The teachers of this community have served faith- fully and with excellent success during the year. Their untiring efforts in the training and education of our child- ren deserve the highest commendation.


The health program has been directed by Dr. Joseph Hobbs, and Dr. Charles H. Wheeler as school physicians, Dr. Glade P. Hall as school dentist, and Mrs. Margaret Madison as school nurse. The usual physical examina- tions have been made and parents notified of any defects found. While some childrens' diseases have occured, the general health of pupils has been good as evidenced by their regular attendance. The work of this department is of high order. By its continual watchfulness it protects. the health of all members of the school.


There were no changes in transportation routes dur- ing the year. As of September 14, 1948, 159 were carried to and from school each day. This is 6 more than were


77


listed at the same period last year. The routes and loads were as follows: Mountain Street, 25; Haydenville and Williamsburg, 46; Searsville and North District, 38; South Street, 22; Nash Street, 18; Chesterfield Road, 10; Total 159. This work has been done safely and efficiently, and owners and operators deserve praise for the fine trans- portation we have had.


The use of the Helen E. James Building for communi- ty affairs has been limited to Wednesday and Thursday evenings. This plan was adopted in order to save fuel, light and janitor service. Last fall the department re- ceived with regret the resignation of Mr. E. Russell John- drow as janitor at Haydenville School. Mr. G. Vernon Warner was then elected head janitor for both schools with Mr. Merrill Bisbee as assistant janitor. With the number of nights work at the James School reduced to two, this program seems to be working out effectively.


The studies made by our teachers on the program of the regular work were checked and changes begun. New text books were adopted in the field of English, and the pupils were provided with copies. The development of the new revised curriculum will be continued and further changes made as fast as the studies indicate the need.


In the early days our General Court passed a law re- quiring the establishment of schools in all communities so that all of our people might be "enlightened" and freed from the darkness of ignorance. The purpose of this law was to proctect the freedom and individual rights of our democratic way of life, for democracy cannot be main- tained unless it is supported by citizens who understand their privileges and responsibilities and are ready to main- tain them at any cost. Since the passage of that early law, the schools, the people and the nation have prospered greatly, but the fundamental objective of the schools still is "education for democracy."


78


Is closing I wish to express my sincere thanks to the School Committee, the teachers, pupils, and townspeople for the many expressions of sympathy, the flower, fruit and other gift sent to me during my illness. They were greatly appreciated.
