During the year a School Safety Patrol was organized in each of the elementary schools, The Foster, The Shawsheen and the Ella E. Flem- ings. This patrol being sponsored by the Tewksbury Post of the Ameri- can Legion. The patrol is working very effectively in all sections of the town, in making the children safety conscious.


I would like to express at this time my appreciation to the teachers of our elementary schools for their assistance in organizing and carry- ing out the work of this patrol.


I wish to acknowledge the co-operation extended me by the Board of Selectmen, and the citizens of the Town of Tewksbury. I wish to thank my brother officers for the loyal way in which they have served their townspeople as police officers. Our appreciation is also extended to Supt. Michael H. Winn and his department for their co-operation, and to Harry A. Morrison, Radio Technician, who has serviced our two-way radio in the cruising car.


Respectfully submitted,


CYRIL L. BARKER,


Chief of Police.

REPORT OF WORKS PROJECTS ADMINISTRATION


At the beginning of the year, all manual labor was on Forest clearance projects and continued until the first of April; clearing up debris from the hurricane of September 1938. This work consisted of trimming trees, and burning of the brush in dangerous areas. It also consisted of clearing out old wood roads, making them passable for fire apparatus, thus reducing the risk of large forest fires in the wooded areas.


Since the first of April, the following work has been completed: At the High School, the west boundary of the Athletic Field has been fenced with a six foot chain link fence, gates have been installed and the baseball backstop completed. Considerable grading has been done on the northwest corner of the field. The field was maintained this summer by National Youth Administration labor and some work was done at the opening of the school year at the Spaulding School by this same group.


During the year at the request of the Highway Commissioners, 6,716 feet of 12 inch cement drainage pipe was installed along Chand- ler, Pike, Astle, Fiske Streets and Bailey Road. This work involved the laying of pipe and installation of 29 catch basins at points re- quested by the Superintendent of Streets.


Under Farm to Market Road Projects, the following work has been accomplished :


South Street: 2623 ft. widened, gravelled, shaped and 3243 gals. of oil applied.


Shawsheen Street: 2728 ft. widened, gravelled, shaped and par- tially oiled, 2500 gals. of oil being applied.


McLaren Road: 1600 ft. widened, gravelled and numerous stumps and trees removed.


Pine Street: 1275 ft. removed necessary stumps and trees along side of way and application of a coat of gravel. This road is still being worked on.


The Federal Engineer insisted that a loader be installed if gravel was to be taken from the pit for use upon all Farm to Market Road Projects. A loader was hired during the summer and after a trial was purchased. It has worked satisfactorily and has met with the engineers approval. The three trucks owned by this department are worn out and should be replaced during the coming year.


94


A rather extensive scouting and creosoting project operated during the spring months, (for the control of insect pests) also provided for the spraying of the roadsides, and more easily reached forest areas which were found infested. It also provided for some work in eliminat- ing tent caterpillar nests. This project was suspended as of July 1, 1939 by reason of an agreement between the State Department of Conser- vation and the Works Projects Administration.


By a provision of the law whichi went into effect July 1, 1939, all persons who had 18 monthis continuous service on WPA were laid off They were not to be re-assigned for 30 days, and only after persons certified and never employed on WPA had been assigned were they eligible for re-assignment. This caused considerable confusion to our projects and experienced workers who were valuable in the progress of the project were replaced with men who had never had experience in this class of work. During the coming year the lay-offs will be more staggered and should not be numerous enough to effect the progress of any project.


At the present time there are three manual projects in operation. Farm to Market Road Project on Pine and Patten Streets; a project for the clearing of land owned by the town on Pine and Pond Streets, and a Gypsy Moth Project under the direction of the Tree Warden.


Eleven women are employed on the Sewing Project, and ten persons are working at the State Infirmary on a Hospital Records Project.


In estimating expenses for the current year it is necessary to figure material costs for approximately 960 man months, which will call for a Federal Payroll of about $50,000. There are at present projects ap- proved which involve this figure. Eut of course, new projects must be submitted to assure that there will be no lack of projects at the end of 1940. A sidewalk project has been submitted, and is at present in the process of approval, which calls for a large material cost. It seems better to ask the town to appropriate this item separately from the regular WPA Material Fund, as the project calls for $5628 as the town's share for material and provides only 135 man months in the labor column, which is over $40 per man month as against the usual $15 to $17 expected as a maximum.


I recommend that the sum of $10,000 be appropriated for regular WPA operating expenses, and such action on the sidewalk article as the town sees fit to take. Our last personnel report shows that on January 1, 1940, there were 84 persons on Works Projects Administration pay- rolls.


95


I wish to thank the officials of the Highway Department for their advice and co-operation in the work on the various road projects and also the Chief of the Fire Department for his assistance during the spring months when our force of men were engaged on the forest clearance project.


Respectfully submitted,


EVERETT H. KING,


Sponsor's Agent.

REPORT OF ROAD COMMISSIONERS AND SUPERINTENDENT OF STREETS


Board of Selectmen Tewksbury, Mass. Gentlemen:


The following is our report for the year ending December 31, 1939.


CHAPTER 81, AND GENERAL HIGHWAY MAINTENANCE


Our Highway Department has carried out the usual working pro- gram, which includes the patching, graveling and bituminous treatment of the Streets.


Bound stones have been set on the following streets:


Glenwood Road McLaren Road School Street Extention


We are gradually building up the streets that were accepted during the past few years. While it is impossible to finish these streets in a year, we are pleased to report that we have made a good headway on them.


Work on the Farm to Market roads, a W. P. A. project, has con- tinued this year. This project has proven to be a very helpful one to our Highway Department.


This Department is and has been most anxious to keep the men steadily employed. With the exception of two weeks last June our men have had regular employment. This short lay-off was due to a delay in receiving our State allotments. To keep our men steadily employed the year round requires considerable advance planning, and even without the aid of our Chapter 90 Construction allotment, we are pleased to report that our Highway Department suffered no greater layoff than the short period mentioned.


The following tables give the amount of material used on the various streets during the year 1939.

LEDGE REMOVAL

CHAPTER 498


The balance of the Flood Relief money granted us by the State in 1938 was used in the early spring to complete the work in filling in the many washouts and other road damages.


100


CHAPTER 500


Two years ago a new working schedule was required by the State for all work done on Chapter 81 and Chapter 90 Maintenance streets. A schedule, which is set up by our department with the assistance of our state engineer, has to be made estimating the amount of money to be used for the various kinds of material, labor, etc., on each street. Sometimes it is impossible for us to make an accurate estimate on each street and we find that at times we do not have sufficient money set up to carry out the work as per our schedule. Therefore, we are asking that the balance of $1058. of our Hurricane Relief Fund be used for the completion of any such work as started on our Chapter 81 Streets.


HIGHWAY MACHINERY FUND


The Highway Machinery Fund which went into effect about three years ago has proven a most successful and satisfactory method. It has enabled us to take care of all expenses for supplies, equipment, etc., that are necessary to this department immediately.


NORTH STREET, CHAPTER 90


Our 1938 Chapter 90 Construction, North Street, was carried over into 1939 due to the delay in receiving our State allotments. This con- tract called for approximately 3600 feet bituminous gravel road, 24 feet wide with proper drainage. It is to be regretted that further construc- tion on this street could not be continued this year. A new bill was passed, in the spring, by the legislature, discontinuing all Chapter 90 Construction allotment to the towns. This money was transferred instead to the various towns to be used by the assessors to reduce the tax rate.


PLEASANT STREET, CHAPTER 90


In 1938 the town appropriated $500. to be used with money allotted by the State and County for the continuation of the previous construc- tion on Pleasant Street. The State allotted $1000. and the County allotted $500. which made a total of $2000. This contract called for a grade surface with bituminous gravel for a distance of approximately 950 feet. With construction underway we decided that this being one of the main streets in the center of the town a Type I bituminous con- crete top would make a finer appearing road. Our engineers highly approved of this suggestion. Therefore an additional sum of $1500. was


101


necessary. We were awarded a second allotment from the State and County to be used with our own money for this purpose. As this second allotment was received late in the year of 1938, we had to carry this work over into 1939. This new type of construction extends from the State Highway to the junction of Summer Street. This is the first time that the highway department has used this type of construction and we feel that it will prove most satisfactory.


MAINTENANCE, CHAPTER 90


The usual maintenance of Chapter 90 was carried out under the provisions of this allotment. All of our Chapter 90 highways are in good condition. The shoulders on all macadam roads were maintained in good order during the year. A section of East Street was widened and resurfaced. Practically all Chapter 90 Maintenance streets were bitu- minous treated.


For a financial report of the department we refer you to the audi- tor's report of highway expenditures.


In closing this report, our appreciation and thanks are extended to our Board of Selectmen, State and County officials, and engineers for their cooperation and assistance.


Respectfully yours,


THOMAS P. SAWYER JOHN T. GALE CHESTER M. ROPER


Road Commissioners of Tewksbury.


DANIEL STERLING,


Superintendent of Streets.

REPORT OF HEALTH DEPARTMENT


Chairman Greene, and Members of the Tewksbury Board of Health.


Gentlemen:


As your agent, I make the following report for the year ending December 31, 1939.


For the first nine months of the year there were few contagious cases, but we had an increase in the cases of tuberculosis, which are our responsibility as to hospitalization. There have been severe cases brought to our attention and six have accepted sanitorium treatment. At the present time we have three cases in the Middlesex County Sanatorium.


During the last three months we have, with all surrounding towns and cities, been well peppered with measles. This disease is difficult to control, since its contagiousness is almost greater for the few days before the eruption than at any other stage. At that time its symptoms are so like a bronchial cold that parents do not recognize the case and their mixing with other chidren spreads the disease. Our only satisfaction is in the fact that there have been no fatal cases and that for at least five years we will have few new cases.


During the coming year it seems that the town will have to pro- vide some areas to be designated as a "Town Dump," where rubbish can be deposited. As it now appears these areas must be in each section of the town, and easily protected in case of fire occurring in them. Again they cannot be placed where they might be an objection to nearby residents. The board would welcome any suggestions from the tax payers upon this problem.
