Softball League
The Softball League included six teams, Geophysics and Fire and Police having been added to the existing four teams, North Lincoln, Nike Base, Regionals, and Tower Road.
Sixty games were played during the regular season from May 5th through August 1st, and four additional play- off games completed the schedule during the week of August 5 th.
The North Lincoln team was the pennant winner, fol- lowed by Tower Road, Regionals, Geophysics, Nike Base, and Fire and Police in that order. Tower Road swept two games to win the playoff series.
As in the past, the Softball League All-Stars played their Concord rivals as part of the Fourth of July program, losing this year by a decisive margin. John W. Fisher served as softball commissioner.
Summer Playground
Personnel. Mr. Albert "Bud" Reed directed the pro- gram. Assisting him as senior leaders were: Emmett Inger- soll, Janet A. Olmsted, Paul W. Hitchcock, Ronald Trudeau, Harriet Butz and Frances Cibel; as a junior leader, Janet Hankey. Craft instructors were: Carolyn I. MacLennan and Janet Epstein. In charge of tennis was Chloe Bouscaren, assisted by James Miser.
Serving as Program Aide Trainees were: Janet Chisholm, Dorothy Gajewski, Kathryn Grason, Andrea Loewenstein, Da- vid Palmer, Kathy Parker, Rosemary Farley, Bruce Foust and Ed Wells.
107
RECREATION
Program. Activities included: crafts, games and sports, dramatics, music, dance, nature, gymnastics, ten- nis, swimming, and campcraft. Themes for each of the five weeks were: Gold Rush; J. F. K .; International Arts Festival; Land, Sea, Air, and Space; and Gay 90 Teas.
Special events included: four baseball games with Weston, two bicycle trips to Sudbury, two hiking and fish- ing trips to Farrar Pond, cookouts every Wednesday, Friday morning entertainment to which parents were invited, an overnight campout for girls, marble tournament, archery tournament, bicycle rodeo, doll carriage parade, Silver Spurs dancers from the State of Washington, the Boston Children's Theatre Stagemobile presenting the Pied Piper and The Magic Cure, costume contests, lashing and bridge- making, story-telling, puppetry, and automobile mechanics.
Attendance on the playground included 112 five and six year olds; 119 seven and eight year olds; 114 nine and ten year olds; 71 eleven and twelve year olds; 18 thirteen, fourteen and fifteen year olds, for a total of 434. Aver - age weekly attendance was 240, with a first week high of 334.
The children and the staff produced a weekly newspaper called "The Playground Press" in which original . essays, poems, cross-word puzzles, and biographical sketches ap- peared.
The Program Aide Trainees were given pre-playground training, a session at the end of the third week, and a playground manual to assist them with their daily on-the- job experience with their adult supervisor. A record was kept for each PAT so that a varied experience was assured as well as serving as a basis for the next supervisor to help the PAT progress.
The tennis program, available to children fifth through twelfth grades, attracted 134 participants. Teams for junior and senior boys and senior girls were organized for the New England Junior Tennis League and the Junior Wightman Cup League. A Lincoln Invitational Tournament and a Parent-Child Round Robin contest also took place. The children were given the Leighton Tennis Test and placed in three groups: beginners, intermediates, and advanced. Thirty children received awards for successful completion of one or more tests.
The swimming program drew our quota of 240 children from grades two through twelve plus many on the waiting
108
SCHOOLS, LIBRARY AND RECREATION
list. Classes at Walden Pond sponsored by the Concord Red Cross were held for beginners, intermediates, swimmers, junior life savers, and senior life savers.

109
RECREATION
Ice Skating
Ice skating facilities were investigated by Charles E. Jennings and Walter I. Keyes. Trips were made to near- by towns to study their skating facilities and discussions were held with members of the Conservation Service con- cerning suitable areas for grading and flooding. It is the desire of the committee to have several areas main- tained by the Town to fill this long needed void in the recreation program.
Skiing
A ski school for mothers and children is planned for four Wednesdays starting on January 15, 1964. Directed by Mrs. Betsy Van Curan of Wayland, the school will con- duct free morning sessions for mothers with the understand- ing that they will help with the children's lessons. The afternoon sessions are for children first through eighth grades with classes organized according to ability. Through the courtesy of the James DeNormandies. their slope on Trapelo Road will be available for the four Wed- nesdays. The program will be self-sustaining. Mrs. William B. Butler and Mrs. Stanley S. Wirsig are in charge of registration and arrangements.
Finances
The committee's appropriation for 1963 totaled $7430. The expenditures totaled $6601.78. The income from swim- ming, crafts, tennis, and the Stagemobile programs totaled $2087.79 (last year's income was $1437.26). Thus, the cost of the year's recreation program was $4513.99.

LINCOLN SCHOLARSHIP FUND
Annette E. Gras Christopher W. Hurd Robert L. Filbin, ex-officio John D. Crawford, Chairman
The Scholarship Fund Committee is charged with the responsibility "to aid deserving Lincoln children to con- tinue their formal education beyond high school". In ex- ercising this responsibility, the Committee is directed by the trust instrument to consider not only scholastic achievement and available financial resources but also the applicant's general character and promise for the future.
Reports from current and past recipients of scholar- ship aid give the town reason to feel more than a little pride in these young people. Their course selection in- dicates maturity of judgment; their scholastic achievement has been high; they have been participants in a wide vari- ety of important extra-curricular activities of campus life. Because of these fine attributes many students, dependent on Lincoln Scholarship aid in their freshman year, have won college scholarships for subsequent years.
Their success reflects favorably on our Lincoln schools. Further, in becoming independent of the Lincoln Scholarship Fund, they free its limited resources to be of aid to a larger number of freshmen and others whose need is greater.
The Scholarship Committee weighs equally the needs of those seeking practical education with those of the stu- dents in the liberal arts. A major consideration in each case is whether the student's choice of college is appro- priate for his or her needs. A dilemma has sometimes arisen in relation to an applicant's desire to attend a special college at a distance. When applicants have been well able to defend their choice, the Committee has sup- ported them. In reviewing the results of this policy, it has been a source of gratification to find what important rewards have accrued to scholarship recipients able to work in the particular environment and with the faculty of their choice.
In 1963, formal applications for aid were received from seven students. Awards were made to five, the re- maining two applicants receiving assistance from other sources. The number and total of awards were less than
111
SCHOLARSHIP COMMITTEE
the Committee's estimate based on projection from prior years. The explanation for this appears related to the fine work of Mr. Paul Vernon and his staff in the Guidance Department at the Regional High School. Last year, he and his associates began much earlier than usual an ap- praisal of the financial needs of the students for their continued education. It seems likely that both the re- duction in number of scholarship applications and the very realistic approach in their preparation were the results of this effort.
Although the number of awards made last year was less than forecast, this trend is not likely to continue. Fur- thermore, the average amount of aid needed by individual applicants continues to show the gradual increase which has been evident for several years. Already, a large number of colleges have announced $300 to $500 increases in tuition for next year. These considerations suggest to us that the role of the Scholarship Fund will be a very vital one to the high school graduates of 1964.
In the Committee's report of a year ago, mention was made of the diminishing response of the townspeople to the annual appeal for funds to carry on the work of the Scholar- ship Fund. It was most gratifying in the current year to find the number of contributors, 159, and the amount given, $1, 700, greater than at any time in the past. Over $700 accrued to the fund from the fourth of July parking pro- ceeds and generous contributions were received from the 4-H Horse Club, the Lincoln School Association and the Lin- coln Grange. Substantial sums were also given in memory of Mrs. Myrtle Snyder and Matthew H. Doherty. To all those whose interest and generosity gave vitality to the Lincoln Scholarship Fund, our sincere thanks.

TRUSTEES OF BEMIS FUND FOR FREE PUBLIC LECTURES
Paul Brooks Margaret Wood Thomas Winship, Chairman
The 70th year of the Bemis Lecture series for Lincoln residents seemed to place the accent on nature and adven- ture, but it did wind up on an off-beat note.
The season opened with a delightful talk by Dr. Fair- field Osborn, the well-known naturalist and President of the New York Zoological Society. He talked about some of the rarities in the Bronx Zoo. The Town Hall didn't have an empty seat for the Osborn talk November 15, 1963.
The next guest made Bemis Lecture history. The speaker was Joy Adamson, author of the best sellers, BORN FREE, LIVING FREE, FOREVER FREE. So many residents turned out for Mrs. Adamson's illustrated talk that Trustee Peg Wood had to announce that there would be two lectures and showings that night. Remarkably, enough parents and children returned at 9:45 that evening to again fill the Town Hall to capacity.
The last two guests scheduled for the 1963-64 season are Woodrow Wilson Sayre for February 28 to talk on his assault on Mt. Everest and singer Jackie Washington on April 10.
Because of the consistently large crowds attending Bemis lectures this year, the Trustees, at the suggestion of the Board of Selectmen, decided to schedule some lect- ures in the Smith School auditorium.

DeCORDOVA MUSEUM
DeCORDOVA AND DANA MUSEUM AND PARK
Dana W. Atchley, President
The major activities of the DeCordova Museum are de- tailed below in the report of its Executive Director, Mr. Frederick Walkey. The Directors continue to be impressed by the enthusiastic and skillful administration of the Museum now completing its fourteenth year of operation. The impact of the Museum on the surrounding area grows daily. In particular, the new series of exhibits on New England Art has established the Museum as an important nucleus for the larger New England art community.
The Directors continue their efforts devoted toward the several-fold increase in the Museum's educational facilities. The design of a new wing which will accom- plish this aim while simultaneously relieving crowded ex- hibition space is scheduled to go out for bids early this spring. These plans have been drawn up by Mr. J. Q. Adams, Architect, working in close concert with a Building Committee led by Mr. John A. Pike and assisted by Mr. John C. Haartz, Jr., Mr. Andrew M. Wales, and in its early phases by Mr. Ernest P. Neumann and at times by various members of the Board.
Approximately half of the monies estimated for this addition have been raised or pledged. Arrangements have been made to borrow the balance required from the De Cor - dova Trust at an interest and liquidation rate similar to that used by the Museum in its borrowings at the time of its initial remodeling in 1950. It is hoped that con- tinued contributions will be received that can be applied to reduce the amount of proposed borrowings.
Essential to the above have been the capable efforts of many of the Museum Associates working under the 2nd Decade Fund Capital Gifts Committee, chaired by Mr. A. Brad- lee Emmons, assisted by Mrs. Elliott Hedge, Mr. Sumner Smith, Mr. Harry R. Healey and Mr. Francis S. Andrews.
The Board members wish to extend their thanks to the many citizens of Lincoln who contributed so generously during 1963 both in time and money. Further we wish to extend our appreciation to Mr. J. Quincy Adams, who re- signed as President in the spring of 1963 after providing many years of devoted and capable leadership to the Museum and to Mr. George Wells for his many years of excellent ser- vice as a Director.

Exhibitions
In recent years, the Museum has been originating more of its own exhibitions and booking fewer traveling exhibi - tions. At the same time, we have reduced the total num- ber of exhibitions presented annually and have concentrated on the presentation in depth of a relatively few major shows.
Twelve different exhibitions were presented in 1963. Of these, only one was a traveling show and the rest were initiated and organized by our own staff. Detailed, il- lustrated catalogues were compiled and printed at the Museum in connection with five shows, and every important exhibition was supplemented by gallery talks, lectures, teachers' meetings and related educational activities for school children, college students and adult groups.
The DeCordova Museum has always focused attention on New England art. This policy was underscored in 1963 by the one-man shows given sculptor Thomas Morin of Providence and painter Robert Neuman of Boston and by a new series of exhibitions entitled "New England Art in Six Parts". The first two parts in the New England Art series, "Part I, Drawings", and "Part II, Paintings", were presented in the spring and fall of 1963, and the remaining four are sched- uled at intervals through 1964 and 1965. The entire series will present, for the first time in the history of New England art, a comprehensive survey of the best con- temporary painting, sculpture, graphics, and drawing in the six New England states.
Further emphasizing the Museum's interest in New Eng- land art was the display, during the summer months, of a substantial part of our own collection. Many of New Eng- land's outstanding artists are represented in the prints, paintings, drawings and sculpture which the Museum has acquired over the years through its own modest purchases and through the generosity of many donors.
Other 1963 exhibitions presented a sweeping review of 20th century art in work ranging from the cubism of the early 1900's, through the social realism of the depression years, to the "pop" art of the sixties. "New Experiments", our big spring show, introduced some of New York's most controversial "new realists" and "pop" artists to local
115
DeCORDOVA MUSEUM
viewers. Inspiring nostalgia in some gallery visitors and fresh appreciation in others, the familiar styles of Reginald Marsh, Thomas Benton and John Stuart Curry were represented in a small but choice exhibition of American prints of the 1920's and 1930's borrowed from the Wiggin Collection of the Boston Public Library. And in the final major exhibition of 1963, "Paintings from the Collection of William H. Lane", viewers had an opportunity to see classic examples of work by such 20th century masters as Feininger, Dove, Hartley, Hofmann, O'Keefe, Marin and Sheeler.
Two special exhibitions lent an international flavor to the schedule in 1963. One hundred and sixty earrings from countries all over the world were displayed in Febru- ary and March. Borrowed from the collection of Olga Pertzoff, the exhibition contained an intriguing variety of ornaments in materials ranging from walrus bone and tigers' teeth used by primitive craftsmen to sophisticated designs in silver by Alexander Calder. In July, an ex- hibition of Indonesian arts and crafts was installed in the upstairs galleries; including masks, daggers, puppets, woodcarvings, batiks, and paintings from the islands of Sumatra, Bali and Java, the exhibit was of particular in- terest to youngsters who were studying the culture of Indo- nesia in our Summer Outdoor Program.
Museum Classes
The total enrollment in Museum classes in 1963 was almost 1400; our students came from fifty-one different towns in Massachusetts and New Hampshire.
A few new classes were added to the customary program of instruction in the visual and lively arts. Among the most popular new offerings for adults was a class in sculp- ture, or carving, offered only in the summer term. The class met on the lawn under a big tent where students could carve with abandon on large blocks of white pine, limestone and Philippine mahogany.
Arthur Mazmanian, who recently joined the Museum staff as graphic designer, started a new class in "Design Experiments" this fall for adults, and Shirley Randall launched a new "Actors' Workshop" for teenagers.
Under the direction of Alice Brunton, the Museum's Scholarship Program for talented high school students con- tinued unchanged from previous years. Fifty-two students from seven nearby high schools were selected by their Art
116
SCHOOLS, LIBRARY AND RECREATION
Supervisors to come to the Museum one afternoon a week for advanced art instruction.
Again last summer, the Museum conducted special classes for teenagers, a creative arts program for child- ren in the primary grades, and an intensive outdoor pro- gram in the arts for youngsters in grades 3 to 7. Activi- ties in the outdoor program were based on a study of the culture of Indonesia in the first three-week term and on the "High Middle Ages" of Europe in the second.
Art History Lectures for Schools
During the school year, two members of the Museum staff presented illustrated lectures on a multitude of sub- jects within the general field of art history for students in elementary and high schools throughout Greater Boston. Designed to supplement the study of history, English, art and languages, the lectures covered topics ranging from "Paleolithic Art" to "Art and Architecture in the Soviet Union". Teachers who have used the lectures in their
classes are enthusiastic about the results. They say that this visual presentation adds an important dimension to the teaching process and that it helps students to un- derstand and retain the material their teachers have pre- sented. The Museum's Slide Library has been steadily en- larged in recent years, and it now constitutes a major educational resource. Our lecturers have at their dis- posal excellent slide reproductions of the important works of art and architecture in countries all over the world.
