OUR PRESENT AND FUTURE


The Anniversary year of 1959 shows an extensive building pro- gram - the building of the Convent and Rectory at the St. William's Church, a new and modern Methodist Church and new educational buildings at the Congregational and Baptist churches.


We are justly proud of the heritage given us by our forefathers . the FUTURE lies before us. Will we accept the challenge?


To our older citizens and the hundreds of new residents who have come to Tewksbury to make their home and raise their families ... let us all unite to build a better community, through good home life, education, religious training and friendship one with another ... then we can truly give thanks to Almighty God.


(A copy of this report with programs and newspaper clippings has been filed with the Town Clerk, that they may be safely preserved and become a part of the Records with the 200th Anniversary held in 1934 and to assist those who may be in charge of the 250th Anniversary in the year 1984.)


THE COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS TOWN OF TEWKSBURY


RESOLUTION


WHEREAS: Alice A. Pike has faithfully served the people of Tewksbury as a Town Official for almost Twenty-five years, and


WHEREAS: the said Alice A. Pike has retired from the service of the Town of Tewksbury, and


WHEREAS: the Board of Selectmen have unanimously voted that such service should not go unnoticed and that a Public Testi- monial be given on December the ninth in the year nineteen hundred and fifty-nine as a token of the esteem held for Alice A. Pike by her many friends, therefore,


BE IT RESOLVED: that the Board of Selectmen, acting by and for the people of the Town of Tewksbury, extend to Alice A.Pike the deepest appreciation of the Town of Tewksbury and sincere wishes for continued success, good health and happiness.


The Board of Selectmen JOSEPH J. WHELAN, Chairman VICTOR N. CLUFF GEORGE A. O'CONNELL THOMAS A. ABBOTT JOHN A. MORRISSEY


Unanimously adopted by the Board of Selectmen December 8th, 1959

TOWN COUNSEL Warren W. Allgrove


The matter of the land damages for the new high school property was settled in June and July of 1959 in the total amount of $38,843.00, and each land owner was paid uniformly the same amount per acre as every other land owner. As a part of the settle- ment, each land owner executed a quitclaim deed to each parcel of land owned by him, and all the necessary discharges of outstanding liens were discharged prior to the acceptance of such deeds. In addition, substantial amounts of real estate taxes which were in arrears were collected and deducted from the total amount of each settlement.


In connection with this settlement, I wish to call to your atten- tion the very tragic death of Mr. Edward J. Saunders in the summer of 1959. As you know, his services to the town in the past ten years, with the large amount of land damages that have been involved in the Water Department, School Department, and other departments, have been a great asset to the taxpayers. His outstanding appraisals and competency in this respect will be sorely missed. His most excellent appraisals in regard to the new high school permitted an adjustment with the land owners and the town satisfactory to all.


The claims for land damages at the reservoir on Ames Hill have been settled, and deeds have been executed running to the town to eliminate any question of the town's interest in the new reservoir addition.


The suit against Beulah M. Lowthers involving the property damage to the International Fire Truck No. 6, as the result of a collision on November 24, 1957, was settled in the amount of $2,250.00, as the result of conferences with the Board of Selectmen, Fire Chief, and Town Counsel in view of the very questionable liability that existed in this case. Also taken into consideration was the amount of property damage coverage on said automobile of said Lowthers.


There are included in the warrant for the annual town meeting articles to indemnify Robert Haines and Richard Mackey for medical expenses incurred in a collision on April 3, 1958, with Joseph A. Killeen involving the police cruiser, and also articles concerning the liability of said Haines for property damage arising from such accident. This was an unfortunate occurance involving your police cruiser in the course of answering an emergency call.


83


A suit was instituted against the Selectmen, Road Commission- ers, and others alleging a conspiracy and trespass concerning Mill St. and its widening, which took place in August of 1959. This matter was tried before Judge Quirico in the Superior Court, First Equity Session, December 21, 22, and 23rd, and resulted in a dismissal of the entire matter as against the Board of Selectmen and all respond- ents except Mr. Gath and Mr. O'Neil, against whom nominal damages were awarded in the sum of $1.00 each. As of the date of this writing no appeal has been taken. The Town Clerk, Mr. John E. Hedstrom, did some excellent research on this matter and had available for the Court records pertaining to the layout of Mill St. in 1890, which were invaluable.


A suit in the Superior Court involving the enforcement of the trailer zoning by-law was tried during the month of January, 1960, involving the respondents Kenneth R. Thullier et ux, but no deci- sion has been received at this time. All other trailers which have been notified to comply or be the subject matter of court action have been removed.


A claim against the Department of Public Works for damage to a Police Department vehicle as reported last year is still pending.


I have attempted to be available for conferences with your Board and the several town boards and committees upon request.


Total amount paid to your Town Counsel for court appearances, opinions, and conferences, $1,151.00. This does not include court fees or other disbursements for service of writs or summonsing of witnesses.

RESOLUTION


WHEREAS: At the 1959 Annual Town Meeting of the Town of Tewksbury it was brought to the attention of the Townspeople that a certain parcel of land was being offered to the people of Tewksbury for park and recreational purposes by Melvin G. Rogers, a respected and honored citizen of our community for many years, and


WHEREAS: The people of Tewksbury at the same meeting evi- denced their profound gratitude to Melvin G. Rogers, not only for this act but for the many acts of generosity and kindness he has bestowed upon the town and its people during his many years of residence and service in the said Town of Tewksbury, and especially his keen interest in the youth of the community over the same period of years, and


WHEREAS: A sustained and sincere rising vote of thanks was tendered to Melvin G. Rogers at the Annual Town Meeting.


NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that we, the people of Tewksbury, acting by and through the Board of Selectmen of said town, duly authorized and directed by unanimous vote at said meeting, do hereby extend to


MELVIN G. ROGERS


our sincere thanks and deep appreciation for his generous gift and


BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that our gratitude for this act of our fellow citizen be publicly extended now, and be perpetuated in the future by spreading these minutes on the permanent records of the Town and by posting in a prominent position in the Town Hall of Tewksbury, a copy of this resolution.


IN WITNESS THEREOF we, the Selectmen of Tewksbury, Massa- chusetts herewith affix our signatures on this twenty-fourth day of March in the year of our Lord, Nineteen Hundred and Fifty-Nine.

Anticipated decrease in case load should result in a total ex- penditure of about the same as in previous years. The ever- increasing cost of medical offsets any hope for a decrease in appropriation.


Since submission of the annual budget, the State has set general hospital costs at about 16% higher, effective 1-1-60, and chronic hospital rates at a greater percentage. Based on the current number of cases requiring above care, an additional expenditure of between $6,000.00 and $8,000.00 can be expected.


A recent study of the growth of the Town and its effect upon the total number of cases aided by the department shows that in 1952 there were 121 cases on Old Age Assistance as compared with 115 in 1960. In 1952 there were 26 cases on Aid to Dependent Chil- dren and in 1960 there are 25. On General Relilef in 1952 there were 9 cases and in 1960 there are 9 cases. On Disability Assistance there were 3 cases in 1952 and there are 18 cases in 1960. Disability Assistance was first approved by the Legislature in 1952 and there has been an increase in this category each year since that time. The increase in expenditures over the past eight years has been mainly due to (1) liberalization of the Federal programs; (2) increase in cost of living which, in turn, by law increased the recipients' budgets; and (3) increase in cost of medical attention.

REPORT OF THE BOARD OF HEALTH Thomas A. Abbott, Chairman


During the year 1959 the Board of Health met every third Tuesday of the month (plus many special meetings). Meetings were held in the office of the Selectmen starting at 7 o'clock P. M. preceding the Selectmen's meeting. At the organizational meeting, Mr. Thomas A. Abbott was elected chairman. The Board wishes to announce that for the coming year the dates and place of meetings will remain the same.


In closing out the year 1959, the Board wishes to review some of the activities in which it participated, also some of the proposed plans for the coming year. A total of eight clinics were held during 1959: one Small Pox three Diphtheria, and four Polio, with the largest being the Polio clinic on October 28, where over 1300 innocu- lations were given. It is encouraging to note that no cases of Polio were reported to the Board during the year.


Because of the increase in clinics and because of the increased participation in school health matters, the Board found it necessary to hire a Board of Health nurse. Mrs. Helen R. Kelley, R.N. was hired by the Board on a part time basis and under the direction of the Board of Health physician, Jose M. Ruisanchez, M.D., these clinics were carried out by Mrs. Kelley.


The dental clinic is again in the capable hands of Dr. Joseph I. Stone with Mrs. Mildred Gourley as dental assistant. The Board, in attempting to increase services and at the same time care for more children, has hired Mrs. Albert Recks as dental hygienist. It is hoped that during the coming year all diagnostic work and cleaning through the first six grades will be handled.


The Board is continuing its mosquito control program and wishes to acknowledge numerous complaints that were received during the summer concerning this program. It is impossible to predetermine the effectiveness of mosquito control, especially a's it is handled on such a limited basis here in Tewksbury. The weather plays a great part in determining the percentage of effectiveness, and during the past season the unusually wet weather caused many washouts which rendered the spraying inaffective. It is hoped that by increasing the percentage of ground control spraying this year, a more effective program will result.


Robert W. Rimbach, Sanitarian, has reported a total of 391 inspections of eating and food establishments and 210 bacterial


87


swabs of eating and drinking utensils. Also, there were 1820 determinations on samples of various dairy products sold within the town. The Board is happy to report that no serious viola- tions have been uncovered and that there has been excellent cooperation between the sanitarian and the various business estab- lishments where inspections were made.


Perhaps the most noteworthy conference held by the Board was conducted with Frederick A. Dunham, M.D., District Health Officer, and various representatives of the Department of Public Health for the purpose of increasing and improving health services. As a result of this conference, the Board received a list of recommenda- tions from Dr. Dunham which became the basis for recommending the establishment of a permanent Board of Health nurse and a full time Board of Health agent, so that the local Board of Health might better administer to the health needs of the community. Included in the increased services to be made available would be: giving or arranging for home nursing when needed; teaching others to give care such as relatives, etc. under professional nursing supervision; developing community resources for health, education and for pre- vention and treatment of illness by contributing to the general knowledge of needs; sharing in community planning; directing child health supervision; and other related functions.


The Board is aware that there are many programs recommended by the State and available to the local comunity. It is necessary, however, that the local Board be prepared to administer these programs and it is in this respect that we wish to strengthen our department. Accordingly, the Board is submitting at the annual town meeting the articles necessary to bring about its recommenda- tions.
