Grass Fire Season


During the summer, Arlington along with the Greater Boston Area experienced the driest period of weather and the number of grass and brush fires was greatly multiplied. The Arlington Fire


152


ARLINGTON TOWN REPORT


Department was extremely busy but when conditions allowed, the Department rendered assistance to Mutual-aid neighbors when re- quested. Arlington also received Mutual-aid help.


Investigations of Explosive Conditions


During January, the Department received telephone calls that bombs had been placed in several public buildings. In each case the occupants were evacuated and a thorough search was made of the building. No bombs were found.


For months, an extensive investigation was conducted by the Fire Department to determine the origin of accumulation of explosive gas in the ground on Summer Street between Mystic and Mill Streets, the sanitary landfilled area. The following participated: Mystic Valley Gas Company, New England Forestry Service Company, Metropolitan District Commission, Professor Rolf Eliassen of Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and the Arlington Public Works Department.


Final analysis showed the gas to be emanating from the sanitary landfilled area, caused from chemical action of foreign substance, buried there. This condition was eliminated by the construction of a gravel-filled trench which allowed the dissipation of gas to the' atmosphere.


The Fire Department also investigated the cause of gas leak at 473 Summer Street. The leak was located at 483 Summer Street in underground gasoline storage tank. On orders of the Fire Department the installing contractor corrected the condition.


Fire Losses


Sixty-nine losses occurred, 22 of which accounted for $189,289 of the entire loss.

Report of Department Physician


Dr. Edward W. Feeley, Department Physician, rendered the fol- lowing services in 1957: Office calls 39, house calls 3, station calls 7, hospital calls 5, physical examinations 6, and administered 166 Asian Influenza Injections. In addition, Dr. Feeley responded to many emer- gency calls and box alarms. Several conferences were held with the Chief of Department on medical matters pertaining to the Members of the Department.


Fire Prevention


Places of business, public buildings, schools, hospitals, conval- escent homes, and places of public assembly were inspected period- ically by Fire Fighters. A record was made of existing conditions with the date when corrections were made.


Recharged 56 fire extinguishers in these buildings.


The CLEAN-UP, FIX-UP, PAINT-UP PROGRAM during the month of May was a great success. Many requests were received to pick up accumulated debris and rubbish. Fullest cooperation was received from the Public works Department during this campaign.


For the second year, in October, at the request of Catholic Archbishop of Boston, the Fire Department inspected all Catholic churches, convents, schools and other church property in Arlington and noted conditions found. Extensive reports with recommendations


154


ARLINGTON TOWN REPORT


were made and forwarded to the chancellery. Fire Detector-signalling Systems were installed in both St. Agnes Church and St. Camillus Church.


During the year, Lieutenant Daniel J. Mahoney, Inspector of Oil Burning Installations and Flammables, made a total of 745 inspections. Of these 680 were for oil burner installations for which permits were issued. It was necessary to reinspect 180 oil burners before granting the required permit owing to defective installations and failure to comply with the rules and regulations governing' oil burner installations. Inspected also were 65 tanks for the storage of oil, gasoline and other flammable fluids.


Dwelling Inspections


In October 1957, the "In-Service Inspection" of Dwellings was inaugurated whereby approximately 10,000 houses were inspected by Fire Fighters with apparatus who remained in contact with Fire Department Headquarters via radio being immediately available to respond to any alarm of fire regardless of location. The program. proved successful. From the year 1923 to 1952, Dwelling Inspections were an annual feature of Fire Prevention Week. After a lapse of four years, the "In-Service" system was established to carry on this important phase of Fire Prevention. It takes several weeks to com- plete the inspection. Hazards in the homes are greatly reduced. Such inspections impress upon all, that Fire Prevention is not just for one week, but rather a 52-week-activity.


Fire Drills In Schools


The annual fire drill under the supervision of the Officers of the Fire Department was conducted in public, parochial and private schools.


A record was made of the number of classrooms, pupils, exits used and the time required to vacate each building, a copy of which was sent to the School Department.


For the third year, fire fighters with apparatus went to the schools for the conducting of fire drills and at the same time re- mained in service for fire duty in the event of alarm of fire. This method stimulates interest and makes realistic a routine drill. Such a type of inspection has the approval of school department authorities.


Hydrant Inspections


The Arlington Fire Department for the third year assisted the Public Works Department with the Water Main Cleaning Program. Fire Fighters also continued the "In-Service" Inspection of Hydrants throughout the Town, inspecting a total of 1200 hydrants.


During the mild weather, Water Flow tests were made of each hydrant after 10:00 p.m. daily. Records were kept of the static and residual pressures and faulty operations were reported to the Public Works Department for correction. In the winter months, each hydrant was checked for water or ice in the barrel. When found frozen, the Fire Department immediately thawed the hydrant and pumped out the water from the barrel. A full report of frozen hydrants was forwarded to the Public Works Department.


155


REPORT OF THE FIRE DEPARTMENT


Training of Fire Fighters


All men participated in routine drills. Held pumping and drafting practice at Spy Pond and at Heights Reservoir. Owing to the lack of proper facilities, our Training Program was carried out in the area rear of the Senior High School with limited ladder work and hydrant pumping operations.


Conducted Life Boat Drill at Spy Pond and at Reservoir.


During January, Deputy Chief Bartholomew J. McGreevy and Lieutenant Daniel J. Mahoney attended Oil Burner School in Malden sponsored by Oil Burner Institute.


The following Members of the Department attended the Officers' Training Class conducted by the Boston Fire Department from January to April: Captains Thomas Burchill, John Canniff, Harry Cooper, James Doherty, George Kenney, and Charles O'Neil.


Auxiliary Fire Fighters


Auxiliary Members of the Fire Department covered in at Stations during the year for a total of 4040 hours. Their standby assistance is of great value.


November 23, Civil Defense held a parade throughout the streets of the Town to display the available equipment in the event of disaster or emergency. After the parade at the rear of the Senior High School, Auxiliary Fire Fighters gave a demonstration of fire fighting equipment, tools and appliances. Various hose lines were used, some hand lines and other lines fed heavy stream appliances. such as Deck Guns and aerial ladder guns. The men had been instructed in these evolutions by Captain Irving L. Proctor, Fire Department Coordinator with Civil Defense.


May 24, Air Raid Signal Test at 12:10 p.m.


Details


Since 1949, Fire Fighters at Park Circle Station have been assigned during school hours for traffic duty in that section to protect school children.


On twelve occasions as precautionary measure to safeguard the building, Fire Fighters were assigned to standby duty while repairs involving use of blow torch or welding operations were being made in schools or public buildings.


June 10, Engine 1 Company, Reserve Ladder 2 and Special Service Rescue Unit participated in 150th Anniversary Parade of the Town of Arlington.


October 6, on invitation from the Boston Fire Department, Arlington Engine 4 Company with Chief's Car took part in Fire Prevention Parade.


156


ARLINGTON TOWN REPORT


Building Maintenance


At Headquarters, started to repoint and waterproof the sidewall of the building. Began repairs to the roof. Much more work remains to be done in the coming year. Two projecting sidewalks and grass plot on Broadway side of building were removed by the Public Works Department. This makes for easier maneuvering of apparatus leaving and entering the station. It also is safer for pedestrians.


In order that the refueling of motor equipment be done outside the building as recommended by the National Board of Fire Under- writers in their 1950 Survey of the Town of Arlington, installed new 2000-gallon underground gasoline tank and one pump on Broadway side of Headquarters; and two new gasoline pumps outside the building at Highland Station, November 25. The old 500-gallon tank at Headquarters was left in the ground for the storage of waste motor oils.


Recommendations


For the year 1958 recommend that $534173 be appropriated to include the replacement of Special Service Rescue Unit.


I further recommend that because of the lack of facilities for training of Fire Fighters, that land adjacent to the Highland Fire Station be obtained for Training and Drilling of Fire Fighters. It is a recommendation of the National Board of Fire Underwriters that a Training Program for greater efficiency in the Fire Service be maintained. At present, we have but a partial and limited training program.


Conclusion


I am sincerely grateful to the Honorable Board of Selectmen and to Town Manager, Edward C. Monahan, for close cooperation with the Fire Department. I extend thanks to the Public Works Depart- ment, the Police Department and to all other departments for their helpfulness.


To my own Officers and Men for loyal performance of duty, my deep appreciation.


Respectfully submitted,


THOMAS H. EGAN CHIEF OF DEPARTMENT

Report of the Board of Health


Mr. Edward C. Monahan Town Manager Arlington, Massachusetts


Dear Mr. Monahan:


We respectfully submit the following summary of the activities of the Board of Health for the year 1957, which reports the services rendered by the Department, together with the reports on vital statistics.


The Board of Health wish at this time to express appropriate recognition in memory of Dr. Ernest R. Brooks who passed on this past year. His long service to the Town as a member of the Board of Health, started with election to the Board in March 1920 and continued unbroken until he decided not to seek re-election in 1952. Such a long period in an elective office is indicative of the esteem which his fellow Townspeople held him. Those of us who were fortunate to have served with him, cherish his memory and inestim- ably value the experience of association with him on the Board of Health.


The year 1957 brought still another loss to the Board of Health in that Mr. John S. Crosby presented his resignation as a member of the Board in March of that year. A member of a family long associated with affairs of the Town, Mr. Crosby was elected a member to the Board of Health in March 1940, and served in the capacity of Board Member until the time of his resignation.


Mr. Crosby's decision to retire to Maine came as a surprise to many. The Board take this opportunity to wish him and his family every success possible in their new field.


Respectfully submitted, PAUL F. BURKE, D.M.D., Chairman CARL E. BARSTOW, M.D. RALPH L. LaVALLE ARLINGTON BOARD OF HEALTH
