REPORT OF THE SCHOOL BUILDING COMMITTEES HIGH SCHOOL


To the Citizens of Weymouth.


The same Committee appointed in 1923 to construct the south wing of the High School was authorized by vote at the last an- nual Town Meeting to erect and complete the extension, now under construction, which will constitute a north wing.


General plans for an extension had been previously prepared by the School Committee, and estimates thereon had been ob- tained prior to the Town Meeting, and the appropriation of $300, 000.00 was based on these estimates.


Such general plans proved to be acceptable to your Com- mittee, and the architect who made them, Mr. Howard B. S. Prescott, of Boston, was engaged to perfect such plans and pre- pare details and specifications.


These plans were ready in late summer, and the time then being favorable, they were submitted to a selected list of build- ing contractors. James Miles & Son, Inc., of Worcester, were


323


the lowest bidders for general construction, with a bid of $180, 987.00, and the contract was awarded to this company.


Plans for heating and ventilating, prepared by Leslie Clough, a reputable heating engineer, of Weymouth, were likewise sub- mitted to a selected list of heating contractors, and the con- tract for this work was awarded to the Stone-Underhill Heating & Ventilating Co., who were the lowest bidders at the contract price of $30,863.00.


Ground for general construction was broken about October 10th last, and at this writing the work is well advanced. The main portion of the wing is erected, and the roof laid and made water tight .- The extreme end of the wing, which will form a boys' gymnasium is also well aong in construction with a portion of the roof planking in place. The heating and ventilating work is keeping pace with general construction.


The very favorable weather which prevailed during the fall and early winter has made it possible for the work to keep ahead of expectation. and the contractors have also been favored with prompt, delivery of materials.


Your Committee has endeavored to have erected an addition to the High School which will be as nearly fire proof as a build- ing of this class can well be, and this intent has been fully carried out in all the corridors and stair wells, where the con- struction is brick and reinforced concrete.


The acquisition by the Town of the land on the easterly side of Middle Street will allow the entire High School to have a satisfactory system of sanitary drainage, something which hitherto has been lacking.


The expenditures of your Committee prior to December 31st will be found in the Report of the Town Accountant.


Your Committee has also during the past year attended to the further imprvement of the Legion Memorial Field.


The work consisted of the uprooting and removal of bushes and trees from a considerable area near Commercial Street, and the filling with gravel of an area in the southeasterly comner of the field. This filling was done with gravel purchased and taken from adjacent land, and placed upon a location designed ultimately for baseball.


The extremely heavy rains during the summer, however, made it difficult to carry out plans of surfacing and seeding land suitably located for football, and it now seems that further filling along Commercial Street may be advisable.


Such filling, in fact, any filling operations, can best be done, and at least expense, while the ground is frozen; and this work will probably be continued during the winter. It is likely that a considerable portion of the field will be fit for baseball use during the coming season. Your Committee recommends that after its current appropriation is expended, any further work to be done upon the field be done under the direction of the School Committee.


Respectfully submitted,


PRINCE H. TIRRELL, Chairman. E. CLIFTON BARKER, Secretary. LOUISE R. CRAWFORD WILLIAM J. FITZSIMMONS PARKER T. PEARSON THERON L. TIRRELL JOHN H. TOWER

PRATT SCHOOL AND SCHOOL AT POND PLAIN


To the Citizens of Weymouth:


The High School Building Committee and the School Com- mittee were jointly constituted a Committee by vote at the last. annual Town Meeting and authorized to erect and complete an additional building at the Pratt School and a new building at Pond Plain.


Your Committee duly organized with the same Chairman and Secretary as the High School Building Committee. Plans for both schools were prepared by Mr. Howard B. S. Prescott,- of Boston. The Pratt School, to be of four rooms, with an assembly hall sufficient for the whole group, was designed and located with the idea of infringing as little as possible upon the limited area of level playground at the school. It was also designed with the knowledge thatthe entire level portion of the school grounds is underlaid with ledge. Excavation of any kind would be dangerous and expensive.


The school was, therefore, located upon the edge of a steep declivity which slopes away from the northern edge of the" playground, and the only excavation was in the removal of gravel upon the slope. Ledge was encountered in but one place, and was of little extent.


From a list of selected bidders the vrm of Clark & Smith,. Inc., offered the lowest figures, and the contract at $51,030.00 was awarded to them. Stubbs Brothers were the lowest bidders,. at $9700.00, for a satisfactory system of heating and ventilating ..


Work was commenced about August 1st, last, and rapidly progressed. The school, practically finished at the opening of' school in January, was occupied at such opening. In this build- ing fireproof materials have been used as far as possible.


Your Committee believe that in quality of construction the new Pratt School is generally superior to any school building- - hitherto erected in Town.


Lack of a location prevented an early start on the new school at Pond Plain. The plans originally prepared were specially- intended for the "Burbank Lot" so called.


The acquisition of the "Dunn Lot" instead of the lot first mentioned made necessary a further study, which as yet is not fully completed. The "Dunn Lot" has, however, been duly sur- veyed, with contours, and the brush has been removed there- from. It is probable that a contract can be let before many- weeks, and a completion by September may be possible.

REPORT OF THE WATER COMMISSIONERS January 1, 1928.


The Board organized with the election of Frank H. Torrey a chairman; George E. Bicknell, clerk and John H. Stetson, treasurer.


The appointments for the year were as follows: Superin- tendent, Fred O. Stevens; Registrar & Collector, Marshall T. Tirrell; Town Accountant, Emerson R. Dizer.


The issuing of permits to fish through the ice on Great Pond was accepted by quite a arge number of our citizens but the actual number of fish removed from the pond was limited and was somewhat of a disappointment to the fishermen. It demonstrated that the water is not being polluted to any great degree by the fish whether dead or alive. The sportmanship exhibited by those to whom the permits were granted was com- mendable. No complaints were reported, in fact, the "Motto" as suggested by the Commissioners was rigidly carried out and proved that where honor is involved, the ights of others will prevail We are to issue permits for use duing the months of January and February of this year and trust the same care and attention will be taken to keep the slate clean.


The new additional sevices have been on par with those of 1925 and 1926.


The open weather lasting into the winter months has enabled the replacement of large for small pipes to extend much far- ther than anticipated.


New developed streets ain evry year, consequently our de- partment is kept busy, but they have been satisfactorily at- tendd to.


We are pleased to note that our chairman rounds out- twenty- five years of continous service as a member of our Board. For details, see report as submitted by the Superintendent.


We request the following appropriations from oor income of the coming vear: Maintenane and Operation $26,000.00
