As I conclude my fifth School Department Report to the people of Acton I should like to express my appreciation to the members of the School Committee, to my hard-working faculty and staff associates, and to the nearly one thousand youngsters from Acton, Boxborough, Westford, and other places who have served on the school system's "team", which for five years in succession has bettered the record of the previous year.

REPORT OF THE PRINCIPAL OF THE HIGH SCHOOL
I will submit this report in two parts, namely : Athletics, and School Accomplishments.
Athletics. The Acton High School Athletic Associa- tion held elections for officers for the 1952-53 school year. The results of the election were: Richard Howell, President, and Janet Larrabee, Secretary-Treasurer. The following were selected as home room representatives: Grade 11, Charlotte Hill and George Morse; Grade 10, Urban McLellan and Lucy Newport; Grade 9, Sylvia Beaudoin and David Wilson; Grade 8, Patricia Perkins and Edwin Anderson; Grade 7, Irving Duren and Ellen Staples.
The Association, under the leadership of Chairman John Edgar, grossed more than $2200 in the annual Magazine Drive. This bettered last year's all-time mark of $1242 by almost one thousand dollars. The profits from this, together with the receipts of the annual A.A. Dance, left a balance in the A.A. account of over $600. Warm-up jackets were pur- chased for the Girls' Basketball Team, as these were sorely lacking in the past years.
This year the Boys Physical Education Department and coaching was headed by Mr. Joseph Sheehan, who had such outstanding success here last year.
The girls were under the supervision of Miss Isadore Stearns, a graduate of the University of Maine, who succeeded Miss Irene Costello. Miss Stearns came here with an excellent background in girls physical education and sports, and she was selected as an All-Maine basketball and field hockey player while attending the university there.
This past fall the soccer team had an exceptional record of seven wins and one defeat. The field hockey team showed a two and four record. Although soccer has only been in the school for the past three years, it has grown tremendously, and there is talk now of forming a soccer league in this area.
It appears that we will have a better than average team in basketball this year. As of this writing the boys have won nine straight games without any defeats, and it appears that they might equal last year's team which was undefeated
28
in regular season play, last year's team having won twenty straight games without a defeat.
Miss Stearns has concentrated on using Freshmen and Sophomores on the girls basketball team, and although at this writing their record is three wins and five defeats, I am sure that within the next few years Acton girls basketball tears will be on a par with those of the boys.
We are again members of the Wachusett League Eastern Division, and our goal is to win the division title for the third straight year.
This year, as in the past, we will again have junior high school basketball and baseball under the able direction of Mr. Raymond Grey and Miss Irene Costello. It is only through this system that future players can be developed for the varsity teams.
It is worth noting that the Acton basketball team has been invited to the Tech Tournament for the past two years, and we are all in hopes of repeating for the third time.
School Accomplishments
1. Driver Safety Program. We at Acton High School have endeavored to stress safe driving since the opening of school in September. In the early fall we had two assemblies (Junior High and Senior High) conducted by the Massachu- setts Registry of Motor Vehicles. A talk and a film were presented by Inspector James Press. In the first week of December the Atlantic Refining Company spent five school days with us to show our students the proper way to drive a car to help correct their mistakes. Every student in Acton High School who possessed a driving license was given the test and checked on a score card. The mistakes were pointed out with suggestions as to how to improve their driving. Later an eye test was given to each student in order to test their reaction.
2. The Womans Auxiliary of the Middlesex North District Massachusetts Medical Society of Lowell put on an assembly with the purpose of recruiting nurses from the Junior and Senior classes. The main speaker was Dr. Philip G. Berman, who is secretary of the Middlesex North District Medical Society. He was assisted by Mrs. S. Gunther Hajjar,
29
who answered the questions of the girls on problems of nursing.
3. In the early spring we intend to have members of the armed forces speak to our Senior boys on opportunities for them in the different branches.
4. Guidance Program. We have established a part-time guidance program in the high school under the direction of Miss Ruth Proctor. Miss Proctor will interview all students at the high school level to help them in any problems and give them advice on future employment opportunities. She will be in charge of all the testing so that she will be better able to direct the students into the proper channels. We feel proud of this program, because we are sure that we are one of the first schools with a student enrollment of less than three hundred to have a full time guidance director.
5. Rifle Team. At the junior and senior high school level this year a rifle team was started under the able direction of Mr. Norton Levy. Fundamentals were taught and officers were elected. With the cooperation of many of the parents of the boys, the Acton Rifle Team is using the Concord Armory as much as four times a week. Mr. Levy should be con- gratulated on the outstanding work he has done with this group of boys.
6. Senior Play. The Class of 1953 realized a profit of close to $500 to be used towards their Washington Trip in April from the Annual Senior Play. One of our new teachers Mr. Vincent Gannon, with the help of Miss Ruth Proctor, Mr. Raymond Grey, and Miss Maureen Conlon, put on the play "Date Bait", which was thoroughly enjoyed by capacity audiences on both nights. This play grossed more money than any previous play in the history of Acton High School.
7. Washington Trip. The Class of 1953 will make the annual trip to Washington and Virginia during the spring vacation, April 20-25. This will be the fourth straight year the senior class has made this trip, which is actually a climax of four years of hard work. Most of the hard work is done during the senior year, but each class starts to put money away from the time they enter the freshman year. It gives each student an opportunity to visit New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Washington, Norfolk and Williams- burg. It has become so popular that other towns like Ayer
30
and Pepperell are considering sending their senior classes down to Washington this year for the first time. In behalf of Mr. Grey and the Senior Class I wish to thank all parents, friends and anyone who has helped this class to obtain the funds for this annual trip.
In conclusion I should like to thank the School Committee, Superintendent Pearson, and members of the faculty for their wonderful cooperation and outstanding loyalty.
Respectfully submitted,
WILLIAM L. O'CONNELL, Principal Acton High School
REPORT OF THE SCHOOL PHYSICIAN
Mr. Whitman Pearson
Superintendent of Schools
Acton, Massachusetts
Dear Sir:
I herewith submit my annual report as school physician.
The usual physical examinations were completed in January, 1953.
Early in the fall special examinations were conducted for those students participating in competitive athletics.
In accordance with the new law governing school health examinations in effect this year, an attempt was made to give more intensive examinations at intervals of three years as advised by the State Department of Public Health. Because of inadequate examining space in the grade schools, parents were not invited to attend examinations of the 4th grade pupils this year. It is hoped that this situation will be reme- died in the near future and that many parents will be able to attend this appraisal of their child's health.
In conjunction with the Board of Health Schick Tests inoculations for diphtheria were given in May to the lower grades in the three precincts.
I wish to thank the superintendent, the townspeople, the teachers, and the school nurse for their cooperation.
Respectfully submitted,
PAUL P. GATES, M.D.

REPORT OF THE SCHOOL NURSE
Mr. Whitman Pearson Superintendent of Schools
Acton, Massachusetts
Dear Sir:
Report for School year ending December 31, 1952.
The first half of this year's work was under the guidance of Mrs. Lillian F. Taylor, who has for many years so ably taken care of the school children of Acton before her retire- ment September 1, 1952.
The Pre-School and Diphtheria Clinics were held in May. Eye and Ear examinations for all the schools were super- vised by Mrs. Taylor early in the year and are now being given again for this school year.
More thorough Physical Examinations have been done this year and it is hoped that this will provide a more com- prehensive study of the students. The most common defects are (1) poorly taken care of teeth, and, (2) poor posture.
I would like to express my appreciation to all those who have so kindly helped me in getting acquainted with my new position.
Respectfully submitted,
EILEEN F. HALE, R.N.

REPORT OF THE FINANCE COMMITTEE
Appropriations for the year 1954 reflect the fact that various departments are operating efficiently in the face of the many problems resulting from a rapid population in- crease.
Advance tax information indicates that financial - sistance from the Commonwealth of Massachusetts will not follow the increases in costs of Town Government. Recogniz- ing this situation, the Finance Committee suggests that the Planning Board consider methods of obtaining the maximum use of existing Town equipment and facilities. The Finance Committee looks forward to the opportunity of cooperating closely with the Planning Board on future problems involving financial considerations.
After discussion with the Board of Selectmen and the Board of Health, the Finance Committee recommends that the operations of the Town Dump be transferred from the Board of Health to the Highway Department. This trans- fer should provide more efficient use of the Town's equipment and manpower. An Article to accomplish this result should be presented to the Town for consideration.
The school budget is expected to be the largest single item of all Town expenditure for many years. School costs will continue to be an increasingly large tax burden due to expansion at both the elementary and high school levels. In view of this burden it is essential that all future expendi-
2
tures for educational purposes be critically evaluated to de- termine their absolute necessity.
The budget of the Police Department as approved repre- sents an increase of approximately 100% over 1951. It is expected that the costs of operating this Department should stabilize at current levels for an extended period.
In an effort to improve sound budgetary practices, the Finance Committee recommends that all Boards or Com- mittees establish fixed salaries for their agents or inspectors.
The Finance Committee would like to thank all Boards and Committees for their cooperation during the past year.
