The River Bridge at Ballardvale was replanked with treated long-leaf hard pine, and the sidewalk of the Abbot Bridge was also replanked. This work was done by Town labor.
The existing heater in the garage was extended to the repair shop. The materials were purchased from the Brown-Wales Com- pany and the work done by our mechanic.
A catch basin was installed on Abbot Street on the north side of the driveway to Livingston's Greenhouse, and throat-curb pieces were installed on two catch basins, one on Clark Road and another on Andover Street.
Painted pipe markers have been erected near a number of catch basins difficult to locate after heavy snow storms.
The roof of the blacksmith shop and repair shop has been re- paired by George W. Horne Company, the low bidder.
To provide for adequate Highway Maintenance for 1941, we recommend an appropriation of $49,500.00 to be divided sub- stantially as follows:

SEWER DEPARTMENT
A damp condition formerly existing in the sewer pump house on Riverina Road has been eliminated by the installation of two ventilators.
Two hundred and fifty feet of six-inch sewer main were installed on Carmel Road from the Corner of Walnut Avenue. This work,
227
with the exception of supervision and supplying of materials by abuttors, was done by the Work Projects Administration.
Five hundred feet of eight-inch sewer main were installed on Shawsheen Road near Lincoln Heights. This work, with the excep- tion of supervision and supplying of materials, was done by the Work Projects Administration. The materials were supplied by Mr. George Cairns.
Eight hundred and seventy feet of eight-inch sewer pipe were installed on North Main Street from a point near Riding Academy Avenue to the Lawrence Line by the Work Projects Administra- tion. Material for this work was purchased by the Town and according to a vote at the Town Meeting, betterments were assessed upon the estates benefited by the above extensions.
Two hundred feet of six-inch sewer main were installed on Pine Street from the corner of Summer Street to a point in the vicinity of the property of Mr. John F. Casey. This work, other than sup- ervision, was done by the Work Projects Administration and the materials were supplied by Mr. John F. Casey.
Approximately two hundred and fifty feet of eight-inch sewer main were installed on Lincoln Circle. This work was supervised by the Town and the entire cost was paid for by Mr. George Cairns.
Two hundred and seventy feet of eight-inch sewer main were installed on Bradley Avenue, a private way near the Lawrence Line. The laying of this pipe was supervised by the Town and paid for by Mr. Walter Walker.
Six hundred and seventy-six feet of sewer main were installed on Cheever Circle. This work, supervised by the Town, was done by Lewis Construction Company with materials supplied by Mr. Frederick E. Cheever.
One of the sewer pumps at the pump house and a check valve nearby were repaired.
A sewer manhole on the main sewer trunk line in Lawrence at the end of Bailey Road was rebuilt.
One corner of the sewer pump house where the brick showed signs of loosening was repaired.
To provide for adequate Sewer Maintenance and Construction, we recommend an appropriation of $5,800.00, to be divided sub- stantially as follows:

PARK DEPARTMENT
The snow was cleared from the following skating rinks during the winter: Shawsheen River at Ballardvale, Hussey's Pond, Rabbits Pond and the football field that had been sprayed.
The new Toro roller proved its worth in rolling the Park and Playstead.
229
A maple tree that had been blown over and an old pine (dis- eased) were removed from the Park.
The football field was given an application of loam and lime. It was then graded, seeded, and rolled. Later, both the football and baseball fields were treated with cow manure.
New benches built by Town labor during the winter were in- stalled at the Central Park.
The skinned area of the Ballardvale baseball field was filled with marl, wetted, and rolled.
The Lawrence Gas and Electric Company set up three poles for back-stop supports at the Central Playstead. The wire was stretched by Town labor.
A "Locke" grass mower was purchased from the Power Lawn Mower Company.
The playground equipment was set up after the fourth of July and taken down after Labor Day.
To provide for adequate Park Maintenance for 1941, we recom- mend an appropriation of $4,300.00, to be divided substantially as follows:
