Protection of Persons and Property
POLICE AND FIRE DEPARTMENTS
Leo J. Algeo, Chief
I hereby submit my report for the Fire and Police De- partments for the year ending December 31, 1962.
Fire Department.
The department answered a total of 158 alarms as listed below:
Buildings 4
Brush and woods
50
Cars and accidents
49
Miscellaneous 50
False 5
158
The building fires consisted of three houses and one barn and the total loss amounted to $12,800.00.
No less than thirteen of the fifty brush and woods fires were caused by the Boston and Maine Railroad engines setting fires along the tracks. The Boston and Maine Railroad has been billed a total of $1566.00 by this de- partment to cover the expense of extinguishing these fires.
Forty-two inspections were made and permits issued for oil burner installations or alterations. Five in- spections were made and permits issued for storage of liquified petroleum gas and fourteen blasting permits were issued.
During the summer a series of eight drills were con- ducted. Under the direction of Deputy Chiefs Dean, Doher- ty and Coan and Captain Gordon, the men were drilled on the use of the equipment. During these drills, special atten- tion was given to such places as the Farrington Memorial and the Storrow House with hydrant connections, hose lay- ing and ladder work being emphasized. Monthly drills are now being conducted and will continue throughout the year.
93
POLICE
During the past year, some of us have been able to attend some outside training. Because of the volunteer nature of the department, it is difficult for most of the men to find the time for this type of training.
Chief Algeo and Deputy Coan attended an all-day ses- sion at Hanscom Field in June on aircraft fires and rela- ted subjects. Our only regular fireman, John Ciraso, attended a two-day course in rescue work at the Massa- chusetts Civil Defense Training Center in Topsfield in June.
Chief Algeo and Deputies Doherty and Coan spent a day in September at the New Hampshire Fire Chiefs' Training School in Fitzwilliam, New Hampshire.
Deputy Chief Dean and Deputy Police Chief MacInnis took a refresher course in First Aid in October enabling them to maintain their Red Cross First Aid Instructors certificates.
The Town in whole, and the Fire and Police Depart- ments in particular, were saddened by the death of Captain Frank W. Gordon on October 7, 1962. Frank had served the Town both as a fireman and a Special Police Officer for thirty years. There could be no finer example of the Volunteer Fireman's dedication to public service than that of Captain Frank Gordon. As a result of Captain Gordon's sickness and death, fourteen members of the Fire and Police departments donated blood in his behalf, at Emerson Hospi- tal, on October 9, 1962.
On November 20, 1962, Robert J. Tracey was appointed a Captain in the Fire Department to fill the vacancy crea- ted by Captain Gordon's death.
Elsewhere in this report, you will find your Lincoln Fire Alarm Code listing. You are urged to read carefully the pertinent information on the reverse side of the card.

During the past year much time has been devoted to the search for Mrs. Joan Risch. An estimated 1687 hours have been spent on the case from October 24, 1961, to December 31, 1962. This department will continue its' efforts to resolve this mystery.
For the past few years the use of Special Police Of- ficers has been steadily increasing. This work has been done mainly by William Whalen, Alanson Sturgis, Paul Moyni- han, Joseph Cotoni and Edward Chisholm. These men have done an excellent job and we are most grateful to them. However, this work load has reached a point where it is beyond a doubt prudent to appoint another regular man to the department. This man will be trained at the State Police Academy in Framingham, as have all members of the department. As a regular member of the department he will be of more value to it than the Special Officers who work on a part time basis. The Selectmen, therefore, have been requested to appoint another permanent Patrolman to the Police Department.
Deputy Chief MacInnis attended a Seminar for one week in May at Northeastern University on Police Interrogations. Plans are being made for other members of the Department to attend similar courses in 1963.
Mrs. Anne Sturgis resigned as School Crossing Guard in June and was replaced by Mrs. Claire Ciraso. Mrs. Mary
95
TREE WARDEN
Hayes has been serving since October, 1961. It is note- worthy that since two School Crossing Guards were first employed in 1958, there have been four resignations. This is a difficult and less than desirable task, particularly in winter weather. These women are assigned to these posts to protect the school children and their record in this respect speaks for itself. Citizens passing these women in their travels would do well to be a little more considerate of the guard's problems rather than inconsid- erate as is sometimes the case.
