DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC WELFARE
January 7, 1964
Honorable Board of Selectmen Town Hall Weymouth, Massachusetts
Gentlemen:
The following is my annual report of the activities of this department for the year 1963. As I discussed with your Board, December 28, 1963 the increased cost of relief is in my opinion due to two major factors:
1. An increase in hospital rates and the costs of other medical items, etc.
2. A decline in employment in surrounding areas.
I do hope that the second reason will be alleviated by an increase in business especially at the Quincy Shipyard. In regard to the costs of medical items we can only anticipate that costs will be higher.
It may be of interest to your Board and to the people of the Town of Wey- mouth that in the past ten years due to liens taken under the Old Age Assistance Law, we have recovered over $225, 000. 00.
The Welfare Department has also handled 243 hospital notices which had to be processed for settlements which work was relegated primarily to one social worker and the clerical staff.
At this time I would like to express my appreciation to your Board and my staff for the excellent cooperation received. Attached hereto is a resume of the activities of the Department of Public Welfare for 1963.
Respectfully yours, THOMAS P. DELAHUNT Director of Public Welfare

WEYMOUTH COUNCIL FOR THE AGING
The main emphasis of the Council for the Aging during the past year has been to cooperate with other town departments in their efforts to achieve increased service to our older citizens. We have held two joint meetings, one with the Housing Authority and one with the Park Commission- ers. We are pleased that a State-sponsored Housing Project for the Elderly is about to become a reality in our town.
As a result of an inquiry made to us, the question of eligibility for town- financed bus-rides by our older citizens was referred to the Town Counsel. Under his ruling any Weymouth resident over 60 years of age may apply through the Park Department office for this privilege regardless of his mem- bership or non-membership in any organization.
Through the efforts of Mrs. Millard P. Koopman, a former member of the Council, a new Friendship Club was formed which meets bi-weekly at the Third Universalist Church in North Weymouth.
Because of many replies to our 1962 survey requesting home delivery of library books, Mrs. Eleanor T. Cooney, Town Librarian, has made such a service possible. The Council also collaborated with the libraries of the town through their representative, Mrs. Joan Green, during Senior Citizens Week, September 15 - 21 in sponsoring an exhibit of Senior Arts and Handi- crafts.
Many requests in answer to our survey asked for information regarding such matters as tax abatement, recreational or education opportunities, etc. These were referred to appropriate agencies or officials.
The Council is now working on a Supplement to the pamphlet entitled "Services and Opportunities Available to the Aging, " which was issued in 1961. The members would be glad to learn of any local group, public or private, which offers services or opportunities to our older citizens.
Respectfully submitted,

REPORT OF VETERANS' SERVICE
East Weymouth, Massachusetts December 31, 1963
The Honorable Board of Selectmen Town of Weymouth Town Hall East Weymouth, Massachusetts
Gentlemen:
I wish to submit to your Board our Annual Report for the year ending December 31, 1963.
We have experienced a very busy year and our financial costs have been higher than they were in past years. This is due, in part, to a sub- stantial increase in the case load of the department as well as to the fact each year an increasing number of veterans are acquiring legal settlement in our town. Our total expenditure for Veterans' Benefits was slightly over $180, 000. 00 for the year 1963. We had heavy medical costs and many large hospital bills which caused an increase in our expenditures. Hospital rates were raised early in 1963 and this meant that each case cost more to handle under our program. We understand there is to be another increase in 1964. It must be borne in mind that the town will re- ceive fifty percent reimbursement on all monies spent by this department provided the expenditures do not exceed the budget established by the state. Another reason for the increased expenditure is unemployment in this area due to the shut-down of Fore River Shipyard. We hope the General Dynamics Corporation will absorb many of the former Fore River workers thereby re- ducing unemployment in this town. Many of these workers are receiving Unemployment Compensation, but in some cases this income is not sufficient to maintain their families and we are called upon to supplement this income or to help out on other problems.
We wish to take this opportunity to express our thanks to all those who assisted us in the performance of our duties in 1963. We also wish to thank your Board and various Town Departments for their kind cooperation.
Respectfully submitted, LOUISE G. TAYLOR, Director Department of Veterans' Service

REPORT OF THE WEYMOUTH HISTORICAL SOCIETY CIVIL WAR CENTENNIAL COMMEMORATION COMMITTEE
Honorable Board of Selectmen Town of Weymouth Massachusetts
Gentlemen:
I hereby submit my report as Chairman of the Weymouth Historical Society's Civil War Centennial Commemoration Committee.
The Display-Exhibition held at Central Junior High School on March 30-31, 1963, was an outstanding success. It was an example of close co- operation between various boards and committees, exhibitors, news and television media, volunteers, and the weather. There is little doubt that the Exhibition was the largest and most successful ever held in New England. Some of the exhibitors even went so far as to state that Weymouth had pro- duced the most outstanding Civil War Exhibit ever held in the northeastern section of the United States.
Some of the exhibits included those from Braintree, Quincy, and Weymouth Historical Society; Lincolnia and Mr. Lincoln of Mr. Claude E. Simmons; The Ansco Brady Photography Display; Superintendent of Docu- ments, U. S. Printing Office; the Rich-Willhauck Display; C. B. Hamblen and Son Diorama; Gettysburg Panorama of Mr. Harry Belcher; School Art and Displays; Mrs. Reynolds Ronci's personal collection; U. S. Navy Dis- play; Old Colony Club Period Room.
The Massachusetts Ninth Battery performed before capacity audiences in two shows. David W. Griffith's silent film classic of the Civil War "Birth of a Nation" was shown four times to large audiences. This film was made available to the Weymouth Exhibition with the special cooperation of Mr. Roy Aitkens, co-producer of the film.
The money allocated by the Town through the Board of Selectmen was used to help pay for the special commemoration booklets. This booklet contained pictures, display information, citations, local town histories, and letters. Over $1500 from the Treasury of the Weymouth Historical Society was contributed. Some of this amount was recovered through the sale of the booklets, Weymouth histories, and other materials.
Space does not permit the acknowledgments to the many individuals who aided with the program's success. They know that their help was responsible for the pleasure of 15, 000 visitors. It would not be fair, how - ever, to omit the name of Mr. Chester Kevitt of Blanchard Road, South Weymouth. Mr. Kevitt and his committee accepted the responsibility of the display exhibits.
The favorable publicity to the Town of Weymouth is noteworthy. Radio, newspapers, and television covered the event. Reports of the Exhibit were given by the Chairman and Mr. Kevitt at several historical meetings
373
including the Boston College Civil War Centennial Symposium and the National Convention of the Civil War Centennial Commissions.
In conclusion I would like to quote from an editorial in the Patriot- Ledger of April 2, 1963:
"The Weymouth Historical Society did an outstanding job on its Civil War Centennial observance over the weekend.
The society's two-day celebration-probably the biggest observance to date in this area during the Civil War Centennial years-attracted an esti- mated 15, 000 persons, from surrounding communities as well as from South Shore area.
The Weymouth Historical Society devoted considerable time, money, and effort to this project. The exhibits were carefully mounted and dis- played, and covered a wide variety of items relating to the war between the states.
The Weymouth Historical Society should be congratulated for pre- paring this Civil War program and offering it free to the public."
Respectfully submitted, THOMAS C. HIGGINS, Chairman Weymouth Historical Society Civil War Centennial Commemoration Committee

REPORT OF THE SCHOOL COMMITTEE
To the Citizens of Weymouth:
The "something new" which invariably appears in a school committee report is, this year, the opening of the East Junior High in conjunction with the High School Annex. This is a unique building as it houses a junior high and a large number of sophomores at the high school level. This is a problem in administration because of the dual set-up, but is adequately handled.
The usual "bugs" noted in any new construction have been almost entirely eradicated in the new high school and this is now a functionally efficient edifice. The fact that there are sophomores in the high school annex merely attests to the fact that in the future an addition will have to be added to the present high school. However, the possibility of a second high school cannot be overlooked.
Many of the facilities of the new Weymouth High School which we hoped could be enjoyed by the townsfolk have been denied them temporarily because of the legal action brought against the Town by the contractor. The wisdom of the Town Counsel in restricting the high school facilities to high school activities is unquestioned, especially with litigation in the offing.
The new vocational school proved a boon to industrial education with the new courses and the equipment, for which everyone should be proud.
The Summer School, in its fifth year, has grown like "Topsy" and the endeavor of the School Committee to obtain good teachers for a concentrated course in make-up, advanced or elective studies has proved its worth.
The extension of the leadership and supervision of department heads to include the junior high schools as well as the high school reduces the severe hiatus between these two levels.
The townspeople have enjoyed the Evening School Program which has offered courses varying from cake decorating to upholstering and from typing to auto mechanics and printing as well as a liberal arts program.
It has been the primary aim of the Weymouth School Committee to obtain the best education for the children of Weymouth. Secondarily, in adopting a budget, we strive to arrive at a happy compromise between the personnel of the public schools and the taxpayers of Weymouth, keeping both viewpoints in mind at all times.
It has been a pleasure to work with all the personnel of our schools, in- cluding administrators, teachers, custodians, maintenance, cafeteria help, nursing and secretarial departments with a little verbal bouquet for the secretarial staff of the Administration Building.

CREDITS
