His fellow townspeople partially recognized his great contribution to their community life by dedicating to him, in his lifetime, the municipal auditorium. And in 1959, although inactive due to illness, he was made an honorary member for life of the Finance Committee.
But the greatest tribute the Town of Wilmington pays Herbert C. Barrows is the acceptance by its officials of the priceless heritage he left - that fiscal responsibility must be defended constantly; and the lessons they learned from association with him - that even in this era of inflated values, there is still substance in such old maxims as "a dollar saved is a dollar earned".

IN MEMORIAM
Officer George H. Fuller was appointed a Special Police Officer in 1939, and appointed a Permanent Officer in 1942 serving in that capacity until his death in October, 1961.
George performed his duties with great enthusiasm and endeared himself to all who served with him. If trouble came our way, he was always in the thick of it ..... and once received a call from the F. B. I. that they were looking for a fugitive who was considered armed and dangerous, and a tip was received by them that this subject might be found in Wilmington. During his tour of duty, George came across this subject in a local dine and dance, and captured him in a real rough and tumble knock 'em down and drag 'em out scuffle. But this was George - feared nothing !
George received a congratulatory letter for this outstanding bit of police work from J. Edgar Hoover, Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation. This became one of George's cherished possessions.
The finest tribute that could be paid George would be to say, "George was truly a Good Cop". In so doing, I am certain that all those who served with him give testimony to that. His untimely death was a tragic loss to the department.
It was with a deep and profound sympathy that we recorded the death of our beloved brother officer in the year 1961.

IN MEMORIAM
Harry J. Ainsworth came to Wilmington in 1929 from North Andover, Massachusetts. In 1930 he was appointed Chief of Police and served in that capacity until 1947, at which time he resigned the chief's job to take over his new duties of Chief Probation Officer of the Woburn District Court - retiring from that position in 1959.
When the "Chief" relinquished his job to take over his new office, he left it with a heavy heart. Sad to leave all that he had worked so hard to realize, yet overjoyed to move up the ladder of success.
He was not tired of being Chief of Police for the Town of Wilmington - for he loved the work and devoted his every conscious minute to it. It was because of a kindly gentleman, the Honorable William E. Henchey, Justice of the Woburn District Court, who needed a chief probation officer. He wanted Chief Ainsworth for the job and wouldn't take "No" for an answer.
During his time as Chief he distinguished himself in many ways and had the admiration of all his fellow law enforcement agents throughout the State. On one occasion, the so- called, "Spot Murder Case" on Kelly Hill, received national coverage in a Crime Story Magazine.
To try to cover all the fine accomplishments of Chief Ainsworth from 1930 to 1947 would be paramount. I would not dare to try! But to say that, "He served long, and that he served well !. .... I'll testify to that ! I'm most certain that all who knew Chief Ainsworth will subscribe to that testimonial.
It was with a deep and profound sympathy that we recorded the death of our former beloved Chief of Police in the year 1961.

TOWN MANAGER
Cecil O. Lancaster, Town Manager
To the Citizens of Wilmington:
It is with pleasure that I present the 1961 Annual Report of the Town of Wilmington covering the eleventh year of operation under the Town Manager form of government.
The year 1961 was a good year for the Town of Wilmington. Five new industries located in our town - plus the expansion of AVCO. It is of utmost importance to acquire new and diversified industries to help stabilize an attractive tax rate. This cannot be done or has not been done by any single individual; only by the combined efforts of your official family, both past and present, have such benefits been achieved.
Many times you may read about graft and corruption in large cities or on a State or Federal level. I assure you that to the best of my knowledge we have a good clean town, and one for which I am proud to work and to raise my family. This is further substantiated when The National Municipal League and Look Magazine chose twenty-two communities throughout the country for All-America consideration, and Wilmington is one of them.
I wish at this time to express my sincere appreciation to the Board of Selectmen, to the conscientious unpaid boards, and to our loyal town employees for their continuing cooperation and interest.
Respectfully submitted,
Cecil O. Lancaster Town Manager

BOARD OF REGISTRARS
In accordance with Section 1, Chapter 3, of the Town By-laws, meetings of the Board of Registrars are held on the second Monday of each month for the registration of voters and the conduct of business. Under Chapter 626 of the Acts of 1958, this meeting is open to the public and the press, and it is so posted in the Town Hall.
Women married prior to January 1 must re-register under their marriage name. Naturalized citizens must have their naturalization papers with them when registering.
New residents are requested to notify the Board of Registrars of the date which they take residence in the town. Any change of address within the town during the year should be brought to the attention of the Board so that your name will not be removed from the voting list in error.
In order to keep the voting list as up to date as possible, this board annually compares the voting list with the yearly street listing. If a voter's name does not appear on the street listing, it is subject to removal from the voting register.
