ANIMAL INSPECTOR
The following is my report as animal inspector for 1953:

APPEALS BOARD
During the past year the Board of Appeals considered five re- quests for a variance from the Zoning By-Laws.
The Board of Appeals met several times to advise residents on various problems pertaining to Zoning By-Laws.
The Board appeals to the voters to consider changes in our industrial districts so that small industry would have an opportunity to locate in town. This would help to defray our tax burden.
For a number of years past the Board of Appeals has recom- mended that the people consider changes in the Zoning By-Laws to allow more business and industry. With this in mind the members of the board and other interested citizens formed an independent group called The Tewksbury Industrial Group to sponsor industry. The group has operated since April 1953. All expenses have been paid by the group members themselves with no expense to the Town. Two public meetings, one in April and another in December were held with prominent speakers from industry attending. The group sponsored a movie entitled "Enterprise" at the public hearing in January 1954 on proposed Zoning By-Law changes. These proposed Zoning By-Law changes were prepared and presented to the Plan- ning Board.
The Tewksbury Industrial Group feels that if Industry is to come to Tewksbury it will be through the efforts of Tewksbury citizens and not any representative of any outside group.
We hope the voters will consider the Zoning By-Law changes wisely and vote the recommended changes.
The taxes derived from industry in Tewksbury at present help the tax burden considerably. Let's have more.

CIVIL DEFENSE
It gives me great pleasure to submit the annual report for The Department of Civil Defense. During the past year the Department continued keeping in step with the State and Federal program.
The Department added more equipment to its already growing supply. Among other things the new Portable Radio which was pur- chased proved very valuable both in town and in emergency calls from out of town. One week after delivery of the apparatus its value was more than indicated when we received a call from the City of Worcester for assistance in the tornado. The Director, Fire Chief Obdens and several members of both Civil Defense and thé Fire De- partment through the splendid cooperation of your board answered the call and were on their way to the stricken city within 15 minutes. Much credit was given the town in general for its aid and the fact that the local group set up and manned the control point for the National Guard companies is indicative of the value of trained per- sonnel and equipment. +
On another occasion Acting Chief John Sullivan requested the assistance of the Civil Defense Department to set up an organized plan in an effort to locate an elderly man lost in the woods. The search was successful and the aged person was more than apprecia- tive of the efforts in his behalf.
Within a few days of this incident another person became lost iri the Great Swamp; once again Acting Chief Sullivan requested and received the aid of the Director and the Department. On this occasion the Auxiliary Police under Captain Albert LaBonte quickly responded and set out in the search. Through our portable unit, calls were put in to Billerica, Chelmsford, Carlisle and Westford Police and Fire Departments who responded with lighting and more com- munication equipment. Toward dawn the Director contacted the U. S. Coast Guard, who sent a heliocopter to the scene, and the Civil Air Patrol, through the efforts of Mr. Dana Fitzgerald, a group officer of the C. A. P. planes from the Beverly Squadron were alerted to assist in the search. At daybreak the gentleman. was found and returned to his home.
The Department answered a distress call from the Lowell Fire Department in the drowning of a young man in the canal. Captain William Chandler who is assistant director responded with the Fire Department lighting unit and the C. D. Portable Radio.
The Auxiliary Police have been called out on three or four oc- casions to assist our local Police Department in traffic and patrolling details. On Halloween, the Auxiliary did an exceptionally fine job as will be seen in the fact that no vandalism or incidents occurred in
7
the town. Again, on Thanksgiving Day, they assisted in traffic details throughout the town.
It has been a pleasure to serve the town as Civil Defense Direc- tor and I would like to thank your Board, the Chiefs of Police and Fire and the many other persons who have given me the cooperation so necessary to make this Department a success.

I wish to submit my report for the year 1953:
From our records we find an increase of 46 runs over last year, 318 to 364. This was expected with the increase in building, popula- tion and more foot and automobile traffic.

With the overall general increase, we in the fire service should have three more permanent men. This would place two men in the Central Station 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. This would mean immediate action in rolling on one piece of apparatus. The second piece of apparatus could wait a few moments for call men before rolling, if needed.
I find it necessary to ask for a horn alarm, coded system. This would mean that I could get more call men as the horns would have a greater carrying range. This should take care of the shortage of men during the day. Using a coded horn system the Town would be set up with a phantom box system.
A new Central Fire Station is sorely needed. With the building in its present condition I don't see how it could be repaired with the apparatus kept inside.
With a new station, the present station might be completely repaired and renovated and other departments could use it, with the American Legion quarters upstairs, providing the cost is reason- able.
I wish to thank all the local Church, Civic and Veterans organi- zations as well as the M. S. I. and citizens for their co-operation; also our very capable Assistant Chief, Edgar Hinton and the crew under his command, also the officers and men in the Central and Wamesit Stations who did their job well.
To you, our selectmen, please accept my thanks. You never interferred and were always open for constructive suggestions to- wards the Fire Department. It was an honor and a privilege to serve you and the people of Tewksbury.
I hope to serve you again and will always try to better the Fire Department.

Chief of The Fire Department

A clinic was held and all the children of the Town were im- munized against Diphtheria, Pertussis and Tetanus.
Respectfully submitted,
MORRIS KELMAN, M. D.
Agent for the Board of Health
BOARD OF HEALTH
During the past year the duties of the Board of Health were somewhat increased as a result of legislative action which required certification as to adequacy of drainage, sewage disposal and water supply of all proposed sub-divisions. In order to meet the require- ments of the new law the Building Inspector was engaged to make the necessary tests and observations prior to taking action on any plans submitted for approval.
For several years it has been brought to the attention of the taxpayers that, under the provisions of a Union Health Act passed
10
by the Legislature, it would be necessary for the Town to join with adjacent towns in setting up an elaborate and expensive district health unit. We are pleased to report that the basic law has been amended considerably and most objectionable features have been repealed. As now written, the law makes it desirable and attractive for towns to join in a Union Health District but the mandatory pro- vision is no longer in effect. The Board is studying the new plan and will make recommendations on this matter in the future.
A three year contract was awarded to the Canelas company of Wilmington for a three year period for the sum of eleven thousand dollars per year. The contract provides for the weekly collection of rubbish and garbage on a town-wide basis. The terms of the new contract were broadened to provide better service to the Town and the dearth of complaints subsequent to the award of the contract in- dicates general satisfaction with the service.
The Chest X-Ray clinic sponsored jointly by the Board of Health and the local Tuberculosis Committee proved to be a great success. Only one active case was discovered but many other conditions re- quiring medical attention were made known to the physicians of those examined. The Board is grateful to all who participated in this community endeavor.
JOHN D. SULLIVAN Chairman
HIGHWAY DEPARTMENT
The following is our report for the year ending December 31, 1953.
Chapter 81 and General Highway
The usual highway work on maintenance was done this year and the streets are gradually being brought back into good condition after the destruction caused by water installation. We completed the culvert on Shawsheen Street and also cut down the hill at the intersection of Whipple Road and Chandler Street, thereby remov- ing two of the most dangerous spots in town. We filled 6 water holes which were another hazard. These water holes were those we re- ceived complaints about in writing. We also installed a drain on Main Street to remove the bad water condition at the corner of Erlin Avenue. The following is a list of materials used on General Highway and Chapter 81 work:
11
Gravel 11,530 yards
Asphalt and Tar
63,172 gals.
Sand 4,244 yards
Pea Stone 370 tons
Bituminous Concrete
500 tons
We also installed 7 catch basins and installed or replaced 5 culverts.
Chapter 90 Maintenance
Work was done on Shawsheen Street, East Street and Whipple Road.
Chapter 90 Construction
Fiske Street was nearly completed this year on Chapter 90 Construction. All that needs to be done is trimming up, which will be completed this spring.
A full account of departmental expenditures will be found in the Auditor's Report.
We wish to thank the Finance Board, State and County officials, Board of Selectmen and all others who have aided us.
Respectfully, GEORGE R. GRAY, Chairman CHESTER M. ROPER THOMAS F. SULLIVAN Road Commissioners
LIBRARY TRUSTEES
The Trustees of the Public Library submit the following report: Details of expenditures will be found in the report of the auditor and the librarian's report contains pertinent facts regarding circula- tion of books and magazines.

REPORT OF THE MIDDLESEX COUNTY EXTENSION SERVICE 19 EVERETT STREET, CONCORD FOR TEWKSBURY
The Middlesex County Extension Service is a publicly sup- ported educational institution to serve all the towns of the county in agriculture and home economics. In agriculture the work is de- veloped county-wide under the direction of county councils made up of leading farmers in each of the main commodities as vegetables, fruit, poultry, dairying, livestock, and commercial flowers. A County Bulletin is mailed monthly to all cooperating farmers and timely in- formation sent to anyone on request.
4-H Club Work is developed under a town committee and lead- ers, and the home economics work is available through a town di- rector, organized groups, or direct requests. Your town director furnishes counsel to the Extension Office on the needs of the towns, services desired, or leadership needed.
Information and assistance were made available on the plan- ning and operation of a poultry farm or enterprise covering the sub- jects of poultry housing and equipment, ventilation and litter man- agement, brooding and rearing, marketing, and management for egg production.
Specialized information on turkey and poultry health was made available through the 1953 Middlesex Flock Health Program. Prisco Coviello, Ernest Salemi, and Stephen L. Smith, Sr., participated in the 1953 Middlesex Flock Health Program.
The Middlesex County Extension Service renders many services to the dairymen in this area. There are in the county herd testing facilities which include complete herd records, pasture, hay, and silage production programs which aim at producing more and better roughage at a lower cost, a soil testing laboratory where a complete analysis can be run to determine needed soil nutrients. Also, on application for membership, any dairyman has access to one of the best bull studs in the northeast for use in his own herd through the artificial breeding program.
The largest dairy herd in the county is at the State hospital. Anderson Brothers, Battles Farm, and Homer Carson are active in county dairy work.
Lenox Karner at the State Hospital has served on the County Advisory Council for the dairy industry and has been very active in other phases of the program.
