The seventh and eighth grade girls met twice a week and engaged in a program which consisted of kickball, tennis, soccer, basketball, tumbling, dancing and softball. The basic skills were stressed with a lead up to a more complex activity. Opportunity was provided for all girls to play for the full en- joyment of the game.


During the course of the year an after-school program and a


179


REPORT OF SCHOOL COMMITTEE


lunch period sports program was conducted. In these intra- mural games, any child who wished to play had an opportunity to display his talents. Tournaments were formed for both boys and girls in kickball, soccer, football, pingpong, tennis and some quiet games. The theme of our program is, "Play for the sake of Play."


Our intra-mural program was operated on a sound and co- operative basis. It wasn't our policy to stress a highly organ- ized competitive team but rather to provide an opportunity for those boys who possessed particular talents in baseball or basketball to develop them in interscholastic competition.


Lincoln was entered in the Middlesex Basketball League. Through the splendid cooperation and effort of the other schools in the league the boys had an opportunity to practice and play the game. Upon entering high school it is hoped they will be on an equal footing with boys from other schools.


The baseball team had the good fortune to win the Middle- sex League Baseball Championship. The group deserves com- mendation for their team spirit, fair play, cooperation and good sportsmanship which resulted in the designation "Cham- pions -1951."


It is distinctly advantageous that the person in charge of the summer playground and school physical education and sports program is one and the same. This results in closer coopera- tion between the two committees, accessibility of materials, use of facilities, outlining of playground area, less duplication of materials, thereby less unnecessary expenditures.


It is extremely difficult to conduct a physical education pro- gram without the proper facilities. This temporary obstacle will be overcome with the completion of the new gymnasium. It is recommended that:


1. Complete physical examinations be provided for every student in school.


2. Physical Education classes for grades one through eight.


3. A full time teacher of girls physical education.


4. A full time teacher of boys physical education.


5. Correction class for those having structural defects.


6. Smaller classes for more individual help.


Respectfully submitted,


Director of Physical Education and Sports.

TOWN OF LINCOLN


Lincoln Scholarship Fund Committee


In May, 1951, the superintendent asked the undersigned persons if they would serve as the initial committee in adminis- tering the newly established Scholarship Fund.


Their responsibility was (1) to determine policies governing the awarding of scholarships and (2) to award scholarships.


It was decided by the Committee that (1) scholarships shall be available to any high school graduate, resident of Lincoln, desiring further education or training; (2) scholarships shall be awarded on an individual basis, taking into consideration financial need, citizenship and scholarship.


The Scholarship Fund was set up originally with the pro- ceeds of the Gilbert and Sullivan production in 1950 which was put on by the Music Department of the Lincoln Schools. More money was added from the same source in 1951. In addition the Fund has received contributions from interested citizens and from the Lincoln Grange.


In May, 1951, three applications for scholarships were re- ceived. Two were awarded: one to Elizabeth Dougherty of $100 and one to Barbara Cullen of $100.


This Committee recommends that the Lincoln School Asso- ciation assumes the responsibility of the Scholarship Fund and that it appoint a revolving committee from its membership to administer the Fund. It also recommends that the Fund be supported by benefits and contributions from individuals and Town organizations.


This Committee feels that there will be an increasing number of deserving applicants and that every effort should be made to establish a substantial and permanent Fund.


Respectfully submitted,


LEX H. TAYLOR, Chairman, SARAH KINDLEBERGER, MAXINE CRIDER, SADIE SHERMAN, MARTHA DeNORMANDIE.

Foreword


We believe that this Town Report makes a major step in the direction of being more useful to the Citizens of the Town. In our report to the Selectmen, we stated general objectives for the Report, and made specific recommendations summarized as follows :


The Town Report should be designed to be of the greatest service to the typical reader. We believe this reader is a person who does not follow Town affairs regularly, and who has only an imperfect knowledge of whatever he has learned in the past about the duties and responsibilities of the various officers and boards.


For such a reader, the Town Report needs to be in part a restatement of the procedures of Town govern- ment - especially as they relate to issues which are currently under consideration. The Report needs to con- tain summaries of recent developments, to be so organized that it aids the reader to get full information about cur- rent issues. Also, the Report should attempt to create and hold the reader's interest.


The recommendations the Selectmen approved are:


1. Rearrangement of the contents, so related matters are placed together.


2. Separation into a statistical appendix of the long detailed tables, thus leaving the more significant material in the reports to appear without interrup- tion of the Report.


3. Improvement of individual reports, with the ob- jective of making them more informative.


4. Redesign, keeping the present page size, but aiding the reader with better lay-out and typography.


5. Continued attention to improving the Report.


We acknowledge with real appreciation the cooperation of Town Officers, the authors of the individual reports, and Henry B. Kane, who gave the drawing for the cover.
