As the library has grown the library building seems to have contracted. Books are everywhere : shelves filled to capacity and books put on the tops-of the cases. - too high up to reach or to read the titles, -and still there are more books to be shelved! The need to expand is urgent and the only room for expansion is up into the attic. The plans for renovating the top floor of the library provide for the shelving of many books and also for facilities that would allow greater library service to the people of Weymouth.
Many changes have come to the staff of the Tufts Library in 1946. Miss Rachael M. Bodine, who has been Children's Librarian ever since the Chil- dren's Room was first opened in 1928, left on September first to accept the position of Children's Librarian in the Thomas Crane Public Library in Quincy. Librarians with special training or experience in library work with children are difficult to find today, -the demand far exceeds the supply,-and the Tufts Library is very fortunate in having secured the services of Mrs. Ruth M. Connors, who has been for eighteen years librarian of the South Junior High School in Quincy. She is our Young People's and Children's Librarian and her school experience is proving valuable to Weymouth in the project for instruction in the use of a library for all the boys and girls in the seventh and eighth grades.
Miss Ruth N. Nickerson left to be married, and Miss Mary L. Gloster to accept the position of High School Librarian in the Weymouth High School. Miss Filomena LaRocco, who had been a part-time worker at the East Wey- mouth Branch, was appointed a full-time Junior Assistant upon her graduation from High School, and Mrs. Betty B. Arnold was hired as Desk Assistant. Mrs. Arnold, a college graduate with executive experience, is working with us while her husband completes his college work under the G. I. Bill of Rights.
Mrs. Gertrude C. Andrews, who for seven years has opened her home as a library station at Nash's Corner and has served as librarian there, gave up this work in November. The Station has been moved to a room in the Shaw School and is being served by Miss Dorothy Trussell of the Main Library staff.
Maintenance expenditures have been light in 1946. Necessary repairs were made on the roof and better lighting was installed over the Main Library charging desk. The oil burner, which the library owned and had stored since
166
war conditions made it necessary to convert to coal, has been re-installed, and is giving a much cleaner heat.
Ours is a changing, complex world and the books we read reveal our changing, widening interests and concerns. The war is behind us and we no longer want to read about it. But the problems of today are challenging ones and a typical day's book circulation shows that interest has swung to atomic energy, electronics, our foreign policy and domestic labor relations. We are reading widely in the arts and are concerned with sports, with vocations, with house building and home making. It is the function of a public library to see these trends and anticipate the needs with new and timely books; to integrate its services with those of the schools and other community organizations, and to supplement these services with books for all ages from the pre-school child to the adult ; to give recreation as well as information; to be, in fact, a center and an avenue of expression for all of the cultural interests of the community.
Respectfully submitted, Clarance P. Whittle, President By order and on behalf of the Board of Trustees of the Tufts Library.

REPORT. OF THE POST WAR PLANNING COMMITTEE
January 21, 1947
To the Honorable. Board of Selectmen:
The Post War Planning Committee herewith submits its report for the year ending December 31, 1946.
Pursuant with the desire of the Town Meeting, your committee has endeavored to bring to the front those things that they interpret to be bene- ficial to the Townspeople in general. Your committee feels that most of its projects are nearing completion, but we still are sponsoring some projects which should be continued from year to year, because of their nature, such as the capital outlay survey, and youth planning, etc.
A brief explanation of some of our projects are as follows:
1. Legion Field drainage we. do not feel the necessity of bringing up all the details of this controversial subject in all its phases, and it was the opinion of the committee that we have the field engineered and report to you as to the possibility of properly drain- ing this field. Competent engineers were hired, borings taken with the result that the best estimate of the cost to accomplish what we all desire towards completely draining said area would be in the vicinity of $50,000.
2. Your Post War Planning Committee met with the Board of Selectmen and at their request, we have hired experts to make a survey of incinerators for the purpose of garbage and rubbish dis- posal. We will be able to give this report to the Board of Selectmen February 15, 1947.
3. Money has been set aside for a study of a school plant survey. A nationally known expert in this field has been hired to make this report.
170
4. Your committee felt that the same type of study should be made
- regarding our park and recreational facilities. Money has been set aside for this purpose. At the request of ward 2 Town Meeting Members Association, the committee has agreed to take borings in the proposed park in East Weymouth and we anticipate having a report for this association before the Town Meeting.
The feeling among the members of this committee cannot be too strongly emphasized as to the importance of the Capital Outlay Committee. We feel that this is a real MUST for the Town and that some provision should be made towards establishing such a committee as part of our Town's form of govern- ment and not as a sub-division of this committee.
This capital outlay survey requires expert knowledge of municipal govern-" ment plus a backlog of experience and education and would provide a nornì for the Townspeople, Appropriation Committee, Selectmen, and Department Heads etc. to use as a guide for all future activities in their department. Therefor, we have submitted an article for this purpose to be voted on at the next annual Town Meeting.
As your committee feels that our work has not yet been fully completed, we further respectfully submit an article to be inserted in the town warrant to continue this committee another year.
Respectifully submitted,
Thomas P. Delahunt, Secretary
REPORT OF YOUTH COMMISSION
Mindful of the growing recreational needs for the Town of Weymouth, a Youth Commission was appointed by the Town Moderator to study the recreational facilities and possibilities of Weymouth.
We report :
A-Facilities
1. Indoor Recreation: We feel that the Town is well supplied with School Buildings that can provide adequate recreation for all. We suggest a greater use of these facilities.
2. Outdoor Recreation :
a. The condition of the playgrounds throughout the Town is gen- erally good, however, to insure maximum benefits more attention should be given to the development of Bicknell Field.
b. There is an immediate need for a playground in the Jackson Square section of East Weymouth where the greatest concentration of chil- dren in the Town live.
c. We recommend that a playfield be established at Legion Field.
B-Possibilities
To obtain the greatest result from the facilities at hand, we recommend :
1. A recreation board of three members be established to oversee recreation in the Town. The School Committee, the Park Board and the Town Moderator will each select a member.
2. This Board will appoint a paid, full-time, recreational director to coordinate the recreational program.
This recommendation is. in keeping with a nation-wide trend as the best means of getting the most out of recreational facilities.

There are about 7000 young people in Weymouth today who could use this program. Their leisure time far exceeds their hours at work or school. At the cost of a little more than a dollar per youngster, this dangerous leisure time can be made productive. We feel that an organized program of recreation will not only absorb energies that lead to delinquent behavior, but more im- portantly will add something to the spiritual stature of those who participate today and will build a mentally and physically healthy citizen of tomorrow. Mark Twain once said, "everyone talks about the weather but nothing seems to be done about it". Hoping that youth will not be substituted for weather, we respectfully submit our report of the Youth Commission.
