Connections were made at the main pipe brought to the property line for five new subdivisions and one for the Housing for the Elderly.
Ten new hydrants were added to the system making a total of 512 now serving the town.
Exploration work was carried out with unfavorable results. Samples from some test wells looked very good, but the earth was too hard packed to warrant the ex- penditure of setting screens and pumping tests. The water- bearing stratas in Scituate seem to consist of narrow veins. A test well drilled into one of these veins will produce a good supply of water whereas one drilled twenty-five feet away will produce nothing.
In May a 24"x18" gravel-packed well was installed by the R. E. Chapman Co., of Oakdale, in the Wagner Mead- ow well field for the bid price of $4,575.30.

REPORT OF THE WATER SUPERINTENDENT
During the summer a roadway 1400 feet long was built from the well to the main on Route 3A.
After a temporary pump was installed and the dis- charge pipe laid to Route 3A, this well was pumped 24 hours a day until December 1st at an average of 450,000 gals. per day. A pumping station to house permanent equipment will be constructed during the spring of 1961.
The Mann Lot standpipe was cleaned and painted by the General Painting and Maintenance Corp. of Quincy who was the low bidder, and this paint job should last for at least five years.
The new ten-inch main was installed in First Parish Road to a point near the Scituate Depot, and in 1961 we hope to continue this main 2,000 feet to a point near the Woman's Club house.
The main cast iron feed main to First and Second Cliffs has broken repeatedly in the marsh and under the river near Edward Foster Road bridge and should be re- placed with a transite-type water main which resists salt action. The cast iron pipe in the marsh is so soft it can be cut with a knife and any surge of pressure causes it to break.
Elevations have been taken to a point on Pincin Hill where in 1962 we are in hopes of erecting a new standpipe of a 11/4 million gallon capacity. The rapid growth of the Town demands both additional source of supply and res- ervoir capacity.
Booster station figures will be presented for your con- sideration to increase the pressure in the high areas of First Parish Road and the West End and will appear under a special article in the Warrant.
A detailed table of the year's accomplishments fol- lows this report, including Capital Expenditures which de- termine the valuation of the Department; after which is the report of the Engineer.
Again I wish to thank the Heads and Personnel of all Departments for their fine cooperation throughout the year.
Respectfully submitted, WILLIAM T. SHERMAN, Superintendent

REPORT OF THE CLAM WARDEN
REPORT OF THE CLAM WARDEN
To the Board of Selectmen,
Scituate, Mass.
The Minot flats were open for clamming November 1, 1960. There is a very thick set of clams in this area, the majority of which is seed, but will benefit in growth, this spring, by removing the legal clams.
There is some good clam sets throughout the creeks and ditches of the North River and Hanover Flat in the South River. These sets will be big enough for digging this coming fall.
The Humarock Flats are closed this year to give the seed a chance to grow. One hundred and eighty eight baskets of clam seed was transferred from the Harbor Area to Humarock last winter. Four fenced areas of over a mile, of fencing was put out at Humarock again this year, to protect the seed from green crabs.
Plastic screening was put out on a section of flat barren of clam seed this spring. This fall under the screen- ing is a thick set of clams between 3/4" to 1 inch in size. The flat outside the screening is completely absent of clams. The seed was destroyed by crabs, gulls, cockles, etc. The State supplied the screening on an experimental basis.
All mussels were cleaned off of flats with clam seed. One man has been digging for marketable mussels.
Clam seed will again be transferred from the Harbor to Humarock this year.
Respectfully submitted, WALTER O'NEIL, Clam Warden

REPORT OF THE SCITUATE HEALTH SERVICE, INC.
Report of the President to the Citizens of Scituate :
It is with pleasure that I submit the following report of activities for 1960 :
The Well Baby Clinic (12 Clinics), under the guid- ance of Dr. Olga Allers and assisted by Mrs. Alice Dowd, R.N., the Board of Health nurse, examined 105 babies and counselled the mothers on the care and health of their children.
The Immunization, or Triple Vaccine Clinic, had 3 clinic days held in co-operation with the Board of Health and gave 108 children Smallpox, Whooping Cough, Dipth- theria, and Booster shots.
Our organization pays for all the supplies used by the Board of Health nurse, Mrs. Alice Dowd, R.N. In ac- cordance with the Scholarship Fund instituted in 1954, two Scholarships of $200 each were given to two High School Seniors who, on graduation, had been accepted in an accredited School of Nursing, and said amount of money is given to assist in the tuition fee. In co-operation with the Scituate Board of Health, the Scituate Health Service sponsored two Salk Vaccine Clinics innoculating 869 children and adults.
Plans are being discussed to conduct a Glaucoma Clinic, Diabetic Clinic, and a TB X-Ray survey.
Our organization is supported by voluntary contri- butions from the citizens of Scituate. Our Fund Drive is held during the month of July. A contribution of $1.00 entitles you to a membership. Our Annual Meeting in April is open to the public.

REPORT OF THE BOARD OF HEALTH
REPORT OF THE BOARD. OF HEALTH
To the Citizens of Scituate :
I submit this Annual Report with a great deal of pleasure for it marks the end of the first year of a com- pletely new health program for the Town of Scituate. This program, initiated by the Board of Health early in 1960 became a reality at the Town Meeting when the Town made its decision to create the Agent's position. Since my arrivel in April, I have attempted to carry out a well-developed program of health services for the com- munity. The report of this work follows:
I Environmental Sanitation.
With the rapid increase in the population of the com- munity, the number of homes being built has created an increasing load upon the Agent to inspect individual sew- erage disposal facilities being installed for these homes. The inspection of land before construction and a final in- spection of the completed sewerage system has been adopted as regular procedure. During the year, 182 per- mits for sewerage systems have been issued by this office for both new homes and changes to existing systems.
Another phase of our program which involves the Agent directly is the investigation of complaints from many sources. All complaints concerning sewage, drain- age, housing, beach refuse, dead animals, refuse dump- ing, comfort stations, and garbage collection have been investigated and resolved. A total of 151 such complaints and related investigations have been completed this year.
Since refuse dumping is always a problem of concern to the Board, weekly inspections have been made at both Town dumping areas and in September a professional ex- terminator was retained to treat both dumps for rodents. In this short period of time, the rodent population of the dumps has decreased impressively and this program shall continue in 1961.
A new three-year contract for the collection of gar- bage was negotiated in June of this year with the previous contractor. The quality of service the contractor pro-
123
REPORT OF THE BOARD OF HEALTH
vides appears to be good and relatively few complaints; have been received by this office.
Restaurants and food-handling establishments have been inspected during this year in a continuing program to maintain food sanitation and to protect the public. II Communicable Disease Control.
The recording and reporting of communicable dis- eases to the State Health Department remains an import- ant function of the Board of Health in a community of this size. In an attempt to gain more complete reporting of diseases, letters were sent out early in the year asking all physicians to cooperate by reporting any and all cases of' communicable disease.
A complete listing of all cases reported follows :
Chicken Pox 18 Scarlet Rever 3
Dogbite 68 Tuberculosis 1
Measles 24 Bacillary Dysentery 1 Mumps 22 Aseptic Meningitis . 1
The Board of Health sponsored polio inoculation clinics in cooperation with the Scituate Health Services in February and March, 1960 and a large number of per -. sons took advantage of these clinics.
In addition, the Board sponsored DPT clinics for. children held in January, February and March which were well attended.
III Licensing.
Many activities carried on in the community are di- rectly regulated by the Board of Health through its powers to issue numerous licenses and permits. During the past year the following licenses and permits were. issued :
Sewage Disposal Installations 182
Day Care Centers and Nursery Schools 12
Sewage Pumping Permits 4
Frozen Dessert License 1
Milk License (Store) 50
Milk License (Vehicle) 10
Oleo License 37
Methyl Alcohol License 18
Fneral Directors 2
124
REPORT OF THE BOARD OF HEALTH
IV Special Activities in 1960.
In addition to the regular health programs carried on in 1960, there were many activities which warrant special notice in order to give a complete account of the year's work.
The annual "Clean-up Days" were held on May 27 and 28 with many residents taking this opportunity to rid themselves of unwanted refuse.
The Rabies inoculation program for dogs was repeat- ed this year in June on two successive Saturday mornings. Unfortunately, only 101 dog owners availed themselves of this opportunity to protect their dogs from rabies.
During the month of June, new facilities were con- structed at the Stockbridge Road dump to care for the disposal of sewage pumped by the local contractors. A trenching method was employed which has functioned very satisfactorily, and complaints of the previous meth- ods of disposal have been eliminated.
An unfortunate group of circumstances combined in June to make Mushquashicut Pond a problem for three weeks to the residents of the area. To alleviate the midge problem, a special spraying of the area was arranged with the South Shore Mosquito Control Project, and the water level of the pond was raised on the high tides early in July.
After receiving a report of insanitary conditions at one of the Town-owned Comfort Stations in July, an agreement was worked out to have both stations at Cole Parkway and Minot cared for daily until after Labor Day. The Agent's report to the Selectmen earlier in the season on the Comfort Stations recommended the two mentioned stations be destroyed and replaced by more adequate facilities. Plans to do this are underway.
The visit of Hurricane "Donna" on September 12th presented no dangerous health problems other than the failure of electricity. The majority of stores and food- handling establishments regained their electric power within 24 hours. Working in cooperation with the Se- lectmen's office, dry ice was obtained for use of house- holders who were without electricity for a few days. The
125
REPORT OF THE BOARD OF HEALTH
work of disposal of the hurricane debris at the Town dumps was handled very well with the cooperation of the Fire Department.
During October, the Norwell Board of Health pro- posed a meeting of representatives of the neighboring towns to discuss the possibility of setting up a regional incinerator for disposal of refuse and garbage. This would be a joint venture entered into by the towns of Scituate, Marshfield, Norwell and Hanover. Three meet- ings of this unofficial group have been held and it is pro- posed to ask the Town Meeting for a sum of money as. our share of the cost of a preliminary "feasibility report" to be done by some engineering firm.
V Health Programs for 1961.
The Board of Health and the Agent will continue in 1961 to support and encourage the work of the Sewerage Committee, and the Regional Incinerator Committee if such is organized. Plans are underway to replace the Corfort Stations at Cole Parkway and Minot which has. been urged by the Board of Health for two years.
Definite plans have been made to have the Mobile Chest X-ay unit visit Scituate during the second week of May, 1961.
Plans are definite at this time to promulgate a new Plumbing Code for the Town. This proposal has been presented several times in past years by Mr. Philip Bailey, Plumbing Inspector.
The Board is planning to continue the Rabies In- oculation Clinic for dogs this summer with the hope that a greater number of people shall take advantage of this worthwhile program.
It is impossible to complete this Annual Report with- out acknowledging the wonderful cooperation and spirit. of helpfulness that has been displayed by the numerous Town Departments with whom the Agent has come in contact during the year. To the Board of Health, I ex- press by appreciation for their confidence in my appoint- ment and their wholehearted support.
Respectfully submitted, WINTHROP B. WADE, Agent Board of Health
