The Board has received many favorable comments on the dental clinics conducted in the local schools by the Health Department under the supervision of Dr. Joseph Stone of Allston. A report submitted to the Board on September 16th by Dr. Stone indicates a great need for the expansion of the dental clinic program and it is hoped that the constructive recommendations offered by the dental supervisor may be carried out in the near future.
The Board of Health holds regular meetings on the third Tuesday of every month at 7:00 P. M. and special meetings whenever the occa- sion so warrants. These meetings are open to the general public and the Board welcomes any comments, criticisms or suggestions that will result in an improvement of the Public Health program.
Respectfully submitted, JOSEPH J. WHELAN, Chairman Tewksbury Board of Health
REPORT OF BOARD OF SELECTMEN
Once again, as Chairman of the Board of Selectmen, it becomes my privilege and duty to write a report for the board. This report is designed to briefly acquaint you with the problems and solutions that have been presented to the board through the past year.
On April 15, 1958, the board received the resignation of Ralph Peters as Building Inspector. On June 30, 1958, the board unanimously appointed Walter Pupkis as Building Inspector at a salary of $500.00 per year plus $1.50 per visit, with no mileage allowance.
53
Under Article 15 of the 1958 warrant, the board awarded the con- tract for the termite eradication program at the Town Hall to the New England Exterminating Co. of Lowell.
Notice was received from the Merrimack-Essex Electric Co. that after June 1, 1958, there would be no wiring inspection service per- formed by their employees. This service was given free of charge. Since that time the town has had no wiring inspection. An article in this year's Town Warrant will be submitted for your approval to set a standard for electrical installations and wiring and the appointment of a wiring inspector.
Final disposition of court action was culminated in the Walker Kennel dispute when the Walker family sold their property on Rogers Street and moved elsewhere.
In the middle of May we lost the services of board member, John D. Sullivan when he was stricken ill. The loss of his counsel and advice was severely felt by the board and our deepest sympathy is extended to his wife and family, together with prayers for his recovery.
To say the town has trailer problems would be putting it mildly. As a result of numerous petitions, complaints and hearings, the board has instructed the Town Counsel to bring court action against one illegal trailer installation to test our trailer by-law. If the court finds in favor of the town, it will only be a short time before the problem of other illegal installations will be solved.
In May, the Garden Club asked permission from the board to landscape the front of the Town Hall. Permission was granted and the Garden Club should be congratulated on a job well done. Their ex- ample of civic pride could be followed by other organizations.
At a joint meeting with the Board of Health, Highway and Tree Departments, a serious safety and health problem was resolved at the rear of Sullivan Parkway.
The Home Builders Association appeared at a board meeting and requested a Special Town Meeting and submitted three articles to be included in the warrant. They were informed that it would be necessary to obtain 200 signatures on a petition to call a Special Town Meeting and as the petition was never received, no meeting materialized.
Petitions for outdoor advertising signs were refused by the board in the interest of the general safety of the public.
At a joint meeting with the Water Department, Mr. Tambone and his attorney, it was unanimously recommended that the sum of $9,000. be submitted in an article to reimburse Mr. Tambone for land taken by eminent domain for the new reservoir site.
With the proposed construction of new route 110, numerous in- quiries have been made by various developers concerning our zoning laws as they relate to industrial development.
54
At the request of the Planning Board, a joint meeting was held with them and a representative from the office of Cerel and Perini to consider rezoning of land in North Tewksbury for the development of an Industrial Park. The consensus of opinion of those present seemed to be that industrial development within our town would help the tax situation tremendously. The type and area of industrial expansion should be given very serious consideration however. It was recom- mended at this meeting that the representative of the Cerel-Perini in- terests submit to the Planning Board, more detailed plans and sug- gestions of what they had in mind for this particular area.
Inasmuch as the permanent town employees are subject to various boards and commissions as their positions relate to compensation, sick leave, vacation periods, etc., and that the continuity and policy of these boards change with the changing of board members, the Board of Se- lectmen held a meeting with all department heads to discuss the possi- bility of creating a Personnel Board to set one standard for all depart- ments to follow. As a result of this conference, the Board of Selectmen is submitting an article in this year's warrant to put the program into effect.
In cooperation with the Mass. Department of Public Works, the board has started construction of curbing and installation of traffic lights at the corner of Shawsheen and Main Streets. This project should be completed early in the Spring and should eliminate a very hazardous traffic problem at this intersection.
There are plans currently being developed to rectify the dangerous corner at South and Main Streets.
During 1958 we saw a substantial addition to the shopping center and 1959 should see further development in this area.
The board was represented before the Bank Commissioners in Boston, favoring a branch bank of the City Institution for Savings to be built at the shopping center. The latest information is that this bank will open for business around June 1, 1959.
The board has been in contact with the Department of Public Works in regard to the present plans for new route 110. At the latest conference on January 28, 1959, we had the assurance of the Com- missioner that plans will be changed so as not to leave Clark Road a dead end street.
The present plans call for a ramp type access from Route 38 which means four left turns with a cross traffic flow. The board feels this to be a very hazardous situation. We were assured that this ob- jection would be studied and a full clover leaf access be provided if possible.

The total number of cases has increased during the year 1958. Activity of 138 applicants is one of the highest figures in this field for the last ten years. The main increase in activity occurred in Disability Assistance and General Relief. The Disability Assistance program is a relatively new program and an increase was to be expected. Most ac- tivity in General Relief occurred in the early part of 1958 and in December of 1958. The former activity could be traced to the general economic condition of the country, and the latter appears to reflect a seasonal decline in employment.
State Letter 99 dated 12/31/58 notified this department that effective 1/1/59 the Director of the Division of Hospital Costs and Finances has established a rate of $6.50 a day for nursing homes. The State Letter also notified the department of the new medical hospital rates effective 1/1/59 - as high as $28.32 per day for all care at some Boston hospitals, and averaging $17.00 per day at local general hos- pitals. The Director of Hospital Costs and Finances is authorized to set nursing home per diem rates by Chapter 696 of the Acts of 1956. The hospital costs are set annually per Chapter 636 of the Acts of 1953.
These changes are mandatory on local Boards of Public Welfare and they are indicative of the ever increasing cost of medical services.
