To the Board of Selectmen:
During the year of 1942 there were 486 complaints received con- cerning dogs, all of which have been investigated and remedied.

There were 466 dogs turned over to the Dog Officer, 87 being restored to their various owners and 397 later proven to be stras dogs, were disposed of. All owners who had neglected to license their dogs as prescribed by statute, have been notified and required to procure the necessary licenses. The total number of licenses issued during the year were 697.
Respectfully submitted,

Report of the Park Commissioners
The Board wishes to thank the Park Superintendent and the Park employees for their efficiency and initiative in meeting the many problems imposed by increasingly severe conditions.
Our Parks and Playgrounds have been kept close to their usual standard of appearance and usability in spite of a lack of the usual extra help, equipment and materials.
W.P.A. General Park Projects
Under the general W.P.A. Park Project, the following work has been accomplished in 1942.
A. The Blaney Beach Seawall, which was in an extremely dan- gerous condition, has been repaired and recapped.
B. A new and much sturdier guard rail was installed at the Blaney Beach Parking Space.
C. The stone wall at Jackson Park has been nearly completed.
D. The children's skating ponds at Jackson Park have been excavated and nearly finished.
E. More landscaping at the entrance to the Jackson Park Tennis Courts was finished and more hemlocks and spruces were transplanted.
F. Approximately 10,000 yards of fill were spread and graded at Phillips Park. The infield was prepared for final loaming and seeding, but with no loam available, this work will have to be done later.
None of this work could have been done this year if we did not have this W.P.A. Project as our own crew was kept busy on general maintenance and development work not covered by this Project.
The future of W.P.A. is, of course, limited, but we believe that every effort should be made to utilize W.P.A. in this General Work Project as long as is possible.
Abbott Park
This Park continues to be popular because of its central location and the organized recreational program instituted by the W.P.A. Recreational Project. The Adult Recreational Program has been somewhat curtailed because of lack of flood lighting, which was ruled out by Dim-out Regulations.
Monument Avenue
The usual bed plantings were made and all bushes were pruned, sprayed and mulched and every effort was made to keep this plot in prime and colorful condition. The flag is flown daily from the G.A.R. Pole and will continue until the war ends.
National Defense
The entire department, to a man, is enrolled in some part of Civilian Defense, either in demolition, rescue, decontamination, or fire department work.
The Park Equipment is mobilized for Defense Duty as auxiliary equipment.
During the scrap drive, Park trucks and personnel were busy col- lecting scrap which they then sorted and took to dealers, thereby insuring top prices.
This report is respectfully submitted by the Board of Park Com- missioners.
JOHN HOMAN, Chairman, FREDERICK BURK, RALPH I. LINDSEY.

Air Corps Ground Forces in November. To date, this vacancy in the regular department has not been filled. There also is one vacancy in the reserve force.
Auxiliary Police
The auxiliary police are functioning as an important unit in our home defense system. They supplement the personnel of the regular department, and are assigned to vital duties in the event of war emergencies. The regular force is insufficient in number to meet with air raids and other emergencies.
A number of the auxiliary police entered the armed forces dur- ing the year. One hundred and thirty-two, including five women, are available at present. They are co-operating in a capable manner. Throughout the year they attended classes and received instructions in general police work. I was assisted in this work by the director, Eustis B. Grimes, and other superior officers.
The auxiliary police have patrolled nightly enforcing the dim- out regulations, and in addition have responded promptly and ren- dered excellent assistance to the regular department in all blackout tests. Numerous instances have come to my attention to prove the invaluable assistance of these men.
Auxiliary police may be called to duty by the Chief of Police when in his opinion an emergency cannot be handled by the regular and reserve forces. When not on active duty they have no authority as auxiliary police officers, but having been appointed special police officers have practically all the authority of a regular police officer.
Traffic
A rapid decrease in traffic is noted. The maximum speed limit at present is thirty miles per hour. This does not permit motor vehicles to be driven at that rate of speed through intersections nor upon certain streets and ways that are dangerous. Operators should comply with all other laws and regulations governing motor vehicles and reduce their speed at intersections and dangerous ways so that the lives and safety of the public will not be endangered.
Special Investigations
The Federal Bureau of Investigation requested the co-operation of this Department in the investigation of aliens and other individ- uals suspected of subversive activities. Many such investigations were made and reports rendered in detail.
As Chief of Police, I have co-operated with all local, government, and military authorities in the protection of life and property.
Respectfully submitted,
WALTER F. REEVES,
Chief of Police.

REPORT OF THE SCHOOL COMMITTEE
The School Committee submits the following report for the year 1942:
We have just finished one of the most important years in the history of the Swampscott Schools. We are giving our attention to the serious problem of just how to train youth most effectively for entrance into the numerous branches of military service. Many changes and much readjustment will be necessary to accomplish this aim. To the casual observer, these changes, to which this past year is a prelude, are not obvious. However the changes have begun, and the plans for a complete conversion to the war effort will be carried out. These changes have required careful thought and skillful or- ganization in order that the period of transition may be gradual and without confusion. Total war leaves its mark on young people and it is a new duty of a school committee to see that, by effective train- ing, students are protected as much as possible from disastrous effects.
In all of our schools the students have been given air raid drills periodically so that, in case of an attack, it would be natural for them to do the right thing.

TOWN DOCUMENTS
[Dec. 31.
The teachers and janitors are trained wardens, first aid gradu- ates, nutritionists, or members of the Women's Defense Corps-capa- ble in any emergency-and we are proud of them.
Obviously the High School must be geared first to war time load. Already we regret the loss of two of our men teachers who have left us temporarily to join actively in the war effort.
A monthly resumé of events will show some of our new activi- ties, and also how the High School has been swinging toward the new war pattern.
January
Air Raid drills were developed.
B. U. Film Library of current educational programs was sub- scribed to.
A Fire master was installed as part of the heating system at the Clarke School.
February
"War Time" went into effect.
Two new adult alien classes were started.
A defense course was offered to all High School pupils.
March
Bids were accepted for tubes for emergency boiler at the High School.
April
Head of Science Department attended lectures at Harvard Uni- versity to prepare for teaching courses in Radio Funda- mentals and in elementary Aeronautics.
Amendment was adopted permitting teachers who marry mem- bers of the armed forces to retain their positions for the duration of the war.
Smoking was prohibited in school buildings at the request of the Fire Department.
All salaries were increased 10% by the Town Meeting.
Transportation for athletic events became a problem.
May
Home Nursing and Nutrition courses were planned. Summer Sessions in Aeronautics were considered.
Diplomas were granted to seniors leaving to enter defense work. A co-operative proposal of service from Petroleum Heat & Power was accepted since no contract could be issued under orders from the office of Petroleum for War.
June
State Guards' requests granted.
September
High School was closed to outside organizations for public use because of oil situation.
October
Scrap Metal Drive was conducted.
November
Co-operation was given Air Raid Watch to arrange for heating quarters.
December
It was voted to establish a five hour a week course of physical
113

training and a course in elementary machines in the High School.
Christmas Holidays were lengthened to conserve oil.
In a busy year these events stand out-a definite beginning, toward a new plan.
Added to this program are the various registrations-selective service-sugar-gasoline-oil-in which the teachers have shared so willingly under the direction of the superintendent.
Added also, should be the sale of war stamps-the newspaper and scrap collections, the Red Cross Enrollment and the community chest drive which, for the first time, was permitted among school children because it was a "war chest."
One of our proudest moments was when the "Minute Man" flag was flown over the High School, the first school in New England to receive an award. Since then the other schools have attained the 90% or better which entitles them to this honor. The committee ap- preciates the wholehearted co-operation of the personnel of the schools. It certainly proves that sharing the responsibility achieves success.
Our finances are stable. We feel that we are getting excellent value for the money expended and we feel that it is expended in a balanced manner: maintaining educational standards that recognize the war effort, filling vacancies with competent inspirational in- structors, and providing healthful surroundings and modern equip- ment.
Our buildings are kept in good repair under the superintendent's revolving plan. In September the usual inspection was made by mem- bers of the committee and the buildings were found to be in a superior state of cleanliness. The janitorial force should be com- mended for their excellent work in preparing the schools for the fall term.
It would be unfair, indeed, if we did not call to the attention of the townspeople, how fortunate we are to have an executive of Mr. Mansur's ability at the head of our schools. Our problems are be- coming more and more complex. They require not only clear think- ing and farsightedness, but a practical viewpoint as well. Mr. Man- sur has these gifts and we benefit exceedingly by it.
We close our report with the hope that soon we may look beyond the shadows of war to the aim suggested by the Archbishop of Can- terbury in his six point post-war program:
(2) "Every child should have the opportunity of an education till years of maturity, so planned as to allow for his peculiar apti- tudes and make possible their full development."
