Storm and Surface Water Section ]al. All roofs and paved areas yards, courts and court yarde shall be drained into the storm water drainage system but not into the separate sewers intended for sewage onlff except where the storm sewer is above the area way, in which case the area may be connected with the sanitary sewer if properly trapped and approved by the Board of Health. When drains used for this purpose are connected with the cc~- ~ined sewerage systems they shall be effectual/u trapped. One trap m~y serve for all such connections but traps must be set below the frost line or inside of the building. Where there is no storm sewer accessible such connections shall be discharged in such manner as not to flow upon a public way or adjoining land. Wherever a surface drain is installed in a cellar or basement it shall be provided with a deep sealed trap and backwater valve. Drain pipes from fixtures subject to hack-flow from sewer shall be supplied with back-water valves. Indirec% Refrigeration. and ~pecial Wastes Section 1~.

Such waste pipe shall in all cases empty over an open sir~k, floor drain or other fixture that is properly supplied with w~ter, con- nected, trapped and vented the same as any other fixture and an air gap of at least twice the diameter of the waste pipe shall be provided between the waste pipe and the receiving receptacle or waste pipe except that an open waste fitting or an approved back flow preventer will be permitted in lines from receptacles not subjected to a vacuum or directly connected to the water supply. Mechanical Disch~r6e System Section 15. Fixtures t~at discharge into tank and from tank to pum~p or ejector shall be protected from siphonmge with not less than a four inch pipe up and through the roof. Tank shall be vent- ed and vent stack not less than twenty feet in height from tank. No gravity fixture shall be vented into this system. Tank vent shall be same size as waste or soil pipe. No fixtures shall be connected to the discharge pipe from an ejector or pump between the ejector or pump and the point where it enters the house drain or sewer. When the drain is subject to back-flow a check valve shall be used. Hot Water Tanks and Safety Appliances Section 14. No range boiler, tank, vessel or container~ ferrous or non-ferrous, in which water is to be heated or stored under pressure for domestic, culinary or sanitary purposes, in this section and in sections fifteen and sixteen referred to as hot w~ter tanks, shall be sold or offered for sale unless it is plainly m~rked, by stamping into the metal of the tank, or into a metal plate permanently attached to the tank~ in a conspicuous place, and permanently visible, as fellows: A.

A hot water tank in which water is to be heated or stored under pressure greater than fifteen pounds per square inch shall be equipped with a suitable pressure relief valve in- stalled in a tapping in the tank or in the cold water supply line, or the hot water outlet line, with no shut- off valve between the relief valve and the tank. The pressure relief valve shall be set by the manufacturer to operate at a pressure not more than twenty pounds above the m~ximum working pressure stamped on the tank, and shall be so constructed that said setting cannot be exceeded by normal means of adjustment. B. A hot water tank to which a heating device or appliance capable of delivering water to the tank at a temperature greater than two hundred and twelve degrees FaD~enheit is connected shall be equipped with a suitable temperature relief valve so adjusted and installed as to prevent the accumudation of water which is at a temperature in excess of two hundred and twelve degrees Fahrenheit. Said temperature relief v~lve shall be installed in a tapping directly in or on the tank within twelve inches of the top of ~ vertical tank, or within six inches of the top of a horizontal tank, with no fittings between the valve and the tank~ except that a bushing may be used to reduce the tapping to fit the valve. If the e~m~uers permit the. locating o? the temperature releif valve on the hot water outlet pipe, in no case shall the heat sensitive member by Ce of said temperature relief valve be more than 4 inches a~y from the top of the tank. The discharge outlet of the temperature relief valve and of the pressure relief valve, if a separate pressure valve is used, shall be connected by m~ans of a non-ferrous pipe or tubing not less than three eighth inch inside diameter, with no shut-off, to an open plumbing fixture, or to within twelve inches of the basement floor. A thermostatically controlled hot water tank may be protected by an automatic fuel shut-off device in addition to the thermostat. Such shut-off device shall be in- stalled in the same location and perform the same function as said temperature relief valve. Tankless heaters shall be provided with temperature and pressure relief valves and a tempering valve. The relief valves shall be in- stalled within six inches of the house side of the temper- ing valve. All parts of temperature and pressure relief valves which are in contact with w~ter shall be made of non-ferrous metals or materials having suitable corrosion resisting properties. All pipe and fittings between relief valves and the hot water tank shall be of non-ferrous metals. Relief valves shall be marked by the manufacturer, by stamping or casting in the metal of the valve, or on a metal tag permanently attached to the valve as follows: 1.

All pipes and fittings in the circulating system between a hot water tank and the heating device or appliance shall be non-ferrous, and of ample size so as to ~ke it possible to heat seventy-five per cent of the available water in the tank without raising the temperature of any part of the water above two hundred and twelve degrees Fahrenheit. Every water tank heater using coal, ~s or oil fuel shall be properly connected to the nearest chimney or smoke pipe by a pipe of suitable size. No hot water tank shall be installed without being equipped with an approved appliance for relieving any partial vacuum which may be formed there- in unless the construction of the boiler is such that it is able as shown by test and so stamped by the marked, to with- 73 stand an external pressure of 14 pounds per square inch. Cross Connections Section 17. Any connection in piping, whereby a public or private water supply used for drinking or culinary purposes is connected with a secondary supply or a supply of questionable quality or whereby polluted matter may enter the supply used for drinking or culinary purposes, shall be considered a cross connection. No cross connection sh~ll be installed. All cross connection. installations shown by test or inspection to be of such type or condition inadequately to protect the drinking or culinary water supply shall be removed. Where the use of a supplementary private or secondary water supply is necessary it is permissible to install an approved swing joint connection from the potable water supply to the plumbing system or an above rim inlet from the potable water supply to said system. Definitions Section 18. Air g~p in ~ water supply system is the un- obstructed vertical distance through the free atmosphere between the lowest opening from any pipe or faucet supplying water to a tank or plumbing fixture and the flood level rim of the receptacle. B~ckflowmeans the flow of water or other liquids into the distributing pipes of a supply of potable water from any source. Back siphonage is one type of backflow. Backflow Preventer (sometimes called vacuum breaker) is a device for installation in a water supply pipe to prevent bacl~low of water into the water supply system from the corrections on its outlet end. main. Branch is any lm~rt of a piping system other than Buildin~ drain is that p~rt of the lowest horizontal piping of a building d~ainage system which receives the discharge from soil, waste or other drainage pipes inside the walls of any building (house) sewer beginning five feet outside the inner face of the building wall. Building(house) Sewer is the extension from the building drain to the street sewer or other place of disposal. Critical Levels of a backflow preventer is the level to which a preventer can be immersed in water before back- flow begins. Dead End is a branch leading frc~ a soil, water, vent, house drain or house sewer which is terminated at developed distance of 2 feet or more by means of a cap, plug or other fitting. Emergency is the installation or replscement of piping or fixtures on pl~,mbing systems which must be made at such times as to prevent the filing of an.application for a permit to do the plumbing before starting said work. Flood Leve.1 in reference to plumbing fixture is the level at which water begins to overflow the top or rim of the fixture. Flood Drain is a drain for carrying off surface, overflow and clean waters from a floor surface. Journeyman plumber is a person who hlm~elf does any work in pD,mbing and is registered and licensed under tP~ ]aw. Local vent pipe is a pipe through which foul air is removed from a room or fixture. M~in of any system of continuous piping is the principal artery of the system to which branches m~y be connected. ~ster Plumber is a plumber having a re~,lar place of business and who by himself or journeyman plumbers in his employ performs plumbing work and who is registered and licensed under law. Plumbin~ is the work or business of installing, repairing or alteringin buildings the pipes, fixtures and other apparatus for bringing in the w~ter supply and removing liquid and waterborne %~stes. The term is also used to denote the installed fixtures and piping of a building. Plumbin~ system of a building includes the water supply distributing pipes; the fixtures and fixture traps; the soil, waste and vent pipes; the building(house) drain and building (house) sewer; and the storm water-drainage pipes; with their devices, appurtenances and connections all within or adjacent to the building. Plumbin5 fixtures are receptacles which receive and discharge water, liquid or water-borne wastes into a drainage system with which they are connected. Repair of Leaks shall mean such repmirs as are necessary to protect property and public health but do not involve any rearrangements or change in plumbing or'of any pipes or fixtures. Size and length is the nnm~n~l size unless other- wise stated by which pipe or tubing is commercially designed. The developed length of a pipe is its length along the center line of pipe and fittings. Soil pipe is any pipe which conveys the discharge of w~ter closets or fixtures having similar functions with or with- out the discharges from other fixtures. Special waste pipe or indirect waste pipe is any pipe or fitting which does not connect directly with a house drain or soil stack. Trap i~ a fitting or device so designed and con- structed as to provide a liquid seal which will prevent the back passage of air without materially affecting the flow of sewage or waste water through it. Tra~ Seal is the vertical distance between the crown w~ir and the dip of the trap. Vent s2zstem is pipe or pipes installed to provide a flow of air to or from a drainage system or to provide a circ~la- tion of air within such system~ to protect trap seals from siphonage and back pressure. Waste Pipe is any pipe which receives the dis- charge of any fixture, except water closets or similar fixtures and conveys the same to the house drain, soil or waste stack. When such pipe does not connect directly with a house drain or soil stack, it is an indirect waste. Water service pipe is the pipe from the water main to the building served. Water distribution pipe is one which conveys from the water supply service pipe to the' plunf0ing fixtures and other outlets. Nothin~ i__n these rules and re~zlations shall be construed as applying to the business of steam fitting, refrigera- tion, heating and ventilating or gas fitting beyond the point where any connection is made with the ~ter distribution system carrying water for drinking or culinary purposes or the waste pipes carrying waste or sewage or the vent system. Such connections shall be made subject to the approval and inspection of the plumbing inspectors. PENALTIES Every person violating any provision of sections one to seventeen inclusiv% shall be punished by a fine not exceeding fifty dollars. Augustine P. Messineo, Chairman Louis H. Jacobs John B. McCormick James E. Curry~ Executive Sec. State Examiners of Plumbers STATE I{0US~ 77 SEWAGE DISPOSAL FOR RURAL and SUBURBAN AREAS Where sanitary sewers are available the disposal of sewage from newly built homes is a simple matter. Where there are no sanitary sewers for the removal of liquid wastes, it is necessary that septic tanks, cesspools or other subsurface disposal works be provided. Before such installations are approved for new homes, serious consideration must be given to the possibility of extending exist- ing sewers to the development. An extension of this sort would dispose of the w~stes from the development with the.sewage from all of the thickly settled portions of the community. Installation of a central sewage treatment plant to serve the development also must be considered. If a central plant is to be installed an organization must be formed or incorporated to be responsible for the proper operation and maintenance of the treatment plant. General Laws of Massachusetts Chapter 41, Section 81M, as amended. Under this section of the General Laws the planning board of a municipality has the authority to disapprove the plat of a sub- division if the land shown on the plat is of such character that it cannot be used for building purposes without danger to health. No subdivision can be approved until the local board of health has advised the planning hoard, in writing, that it has approved the proposed method of providing for sanitary water supply, sewage disposal and drainage. Board of health approval also is required for any subdivision approved by a planning board prior to March 7, 1952, if no building has been constructed in such subdivision. Disapproval can be based on the fact that the land is un- suitable for sewage disposal purposes because of swampy or high ground water conditions or because the soil is too impervious to absorb settled sewage in the area available. Chapter %ll, Section 5, as amended. No sewage or effluent from a disposal works shall be discharged into any lake, pond, stream, tidal water, or any tributary thereof, without the approval of the Massachusetts Department of Public Health. Chapter lll, Section 17 Where it is planned to drain the subdivision or to provide central sewage disposal works, the plans for the proposed dispo- sal of drainage or sewage must be submitted to the Massachusetts Department of Public Health for its advice and approval. No such system shall be established without the approval of that department. Building Permit ;~here individual sewage disposal works ars to be installed a permit for sewage disposal must be issued by the board of health before a building permit is granted for each dwelling unit. A sewage disposal permit should not be issued until after an e~ami~- tion is m~de of the lot and after the suitability of the soil for local disposal works is determined by the board of health or its agent. Soil suitability must be determined by percolation tests and/or mechanical soil analyses. The results of the tests should be given to the contractor or builder along with the requirements of the board for sewage disposal at the premises under consideration. Because soil composition varies even within the same general area, a separate soil e~am~uation should be made for each additional sewage disposal unit. Local sewage disposal works should be located so as to facilitate connecting the premises to the public sewer when one is available. It should be possible to connect the building drain to a public sewer, when installed, without rearrangementof the interior piping of the house. Local Sewage Disposal Works - Defined Local sewage disposal works consist of & house sewer and a cesspool or a septic tank with leaching or seepage works. The building or house sewer begins at that point where the connection nearest the house wall is madeto the main drain and extends to the disposal works. The house sewer must be constructed of bell and spigot pipe, the minimum size being ~ inches if cast iron is used or 6 inches is any other material, such as tile pipe is used. House Sewer --Beginning at a point approximately 5 feet from the inner wall, a minimum grate of i per cent must be provided for the house sewer. A grade of at least 2 per cent should be provided where feasible. Immediately preceding the septic tank or cesspool, the s-adc of the house sewer must not exceed ~ per cent for the final l0 feet. Wherever the house sewer passes within 100 feet of any well or other source of water supply, east iron pipe with properly caulked lead joints is required. The same type installation is required where earth covering the pipe is less than 3 feet under roadways or wherever traffic is permitted. Septic Tanks It is preferable that septic tanks be rectangular in shape with the length 2 to 3 times the width. A w~ter depth of 4 to 6 feet shall be provided in the septic tank with a free board (air space) of 6 to 9 inches. 79 The tank shall be watertight and made of material such as concrete block, brick or concrete, which is not subject to ex- cessive corrosion or de6ay. A tank built of 12 gauge steel or sheet iron and painted inside and outside with two coats of asphaltum paint may be permitted. Since iron or steel septic tanks will corrode, their use is not reco~ended for large in- stallation. Inlet and Outlet Connections Inlet and outlet connections in the septic tank must be con- structed of cast iron sanitary tees and short sections of pipe. The inlet must extend l0 inches below the flow level in the tank. The outlet must extend downward 15 inches below the flow level. Vents on the sanitary tees must extend 6 inches above the flow level. The use of baffles in a septic tank is not necessary. Manholes A manhole must be provided at the inlet end of the septic tank. If possible a second manhole should be provided at the outlet end of the tank. Manholes located over the inlet and out- let tees will facilitate the cleaning of the tank and the tees. Where the top of the tank is located more than 18 inches below the ground surface the manhole or manholes should be built up to within 12 inches of the ground surface. Septic Tank Care The purpose of a septic tank is to allow the solids in the sewage to settle out and be digested by bacterial action. A septic tank does not remove disease-producing bacteria from the sewage. From time to time the solids retained in the tank in the form of sludge must be removed. A septic tank should be inspected at least once a year. When the total depth of scum and sludge exceeds one-third of the liquid depth of the tank~ the solids should be removed. Re- moved solids should be disposed of by burial or in some other sanitary manner so as not to cause a nuisance or to pollute a source of water supply or water course. There are no chemicals which can reduce the solids in a septic tank to the point where cleaning is not necessary. The use of chemicals or digesting yeasts, therefore, is not reco~ended. Septic Tank Capacity Minimum capacities for septic tanks shall be determined from the following table. 8O Minimum Ca,cities for Septic Number of Bedrooms Approximate No. of Persons Served Liquid Cap~city Total of Tank(gallons) of Tank(cubic feet* 3 or less 6 or less 500 90 4 or less 8 or less 750 130 5 or less l0 or less 900 150 6 or less 12 or less 1100 180 7 or less 14 or less 1300 210 8 or less 16 or less 1500 240 12 or less 24 or less 2000 320 *Total Volume in Cubic Feet Includes Air Space Above Liquid. The number of persons to be served by the disposal system should be estimated on the basis that two persons will occupy each be&roam in the proposed dwelling. Where a g~rbage grinder discharging into the septic tank is to be installed, a tank 50 per cent larger than that indicated in the above table will be required. Distribution Boxes Where more than a single line of. distribution pipe is used a distribution box must be installed to distribute the septic tank effluent equally into the various subsurface distribution pipe lines. The bott°ms of the outlet pipes must be on the s~me level to insure even distribution of sewage into the disposal field. Construction of Subsurface Disposal Fields In subsurface disposal fields, the lateral pipe lines should follow the general contours of the ground. The disposal trench or trenches shall be at least 18 inches wide with a minimum of 18 to 24 inches of earth covering above the crown of the pipes. 1. Field lines must be constructed with bell and spigot pipe at least 4 inches in diameter and laid with open joints in the trench on a 6-inch layer of clean gravel or crushed stone ranging in size from 3-4 to I 1/2 inches. 2. The pipes should be surrounded by similar material to a height of 2 inches above the crown of the pipe. 3. Two inches of gravel or stone 1-8 inch to 1-4 inch in diameter should be placed over the coarse gravel or stone. 81 No single line of distribution pipe shall be over 100 feet in length. All lines must be laid at a grade of 4 inches to 6 inches per 100 feet. Where a distribution pipe longer than 80 feet is used, the grade of the last l0 feet should be reversed to avoid overflow at the end of the pipe. A minimum of 6 feet must be maintained between the center lines cf the disposal field trenches Recommended Subsurface Disposal Trench Subsu_~face Disposal Trench Absorptive Qualities of Soil The necessary length of the disposal field trench or trenches can be determined by percolation tests, This t~st determines the absorptive qualities of the soil and is conducted as follows: Percolation Test Procedure: 1. At the site of the proposed disposal trench or trenches excavate a hole one foot square to the depth of the proposed trenches. 2. Without disturbing the earth surfaces in the hole, fill the hole to a depth of lO to 12 inches with water. Maintain this depth of water for l0 minutes. 3- Pour w~ter gently into the excavated hole to a depth of l0 to 12 inches. Pouring the water over a board or piece of metal supported on rocks will avoid disturbing the earth bottom in the hole. 4. Observe the time required for the water level to fall one inch. 5. Where the disposal area is extensive several separate tests should be m~de. With the time result obtained from the tests, the length of the 4-inch pipe in the disposal field may be determined from the table shown below. The following table is based on ~ver~ge conditions. 'Time required for water level to Length of 4-inch Bell and Spigot fall one inch in Pipe Required In The Disposal Field With Average Sewage Flow Assuming 50 C~llons Per Person Per D~y in Minutes Feet Per Person 1/2 or tess 8 1 12 2 17 ~2 l0 35 30 60 Where household garbage grinders are installed, the length of pipe required should be increased 25 per cent, Test Reliability This test is not reliable when run on frozen ground. The soil cannot be considered acceptable for subsurface disposal if 60 minutes or more are required for the w~ter level to fall one inch. Where the ground water level is high~ the soil cannot be considered acceptable for se?age disposal fields. Where conditions are not suitable~ sewage disposal works must be designed by a competent engineer. Cesspools If leaching cesspools are to be provided instead of a septic tank and drainage field, the leaching surface are for cesspools must be based on percolation tests made as described previously. However, the test must be carried on at the depth of the bottom of the proposed cesspool. The following table gives the leaching area required in square fee% based on the percolation tests: Time Required for Water Level To Fall One Inch In Minutes Effestive Leaching Area Required In Square Feet Por Person 1/R or less 12 1 18 4 36 5 41 3o 9o 60 12o The cesspool pit should not extend into the water table. The use of a cesspool should be prohibited in areas where the ground water level is above the bottom of the proposed cesspool The use of an abandoned well as a cesspool must be prohibited in areas where other wells are used as ,~ater supplies. In any event the cesspool must be located remote from all sources of water supply. Leachin~ Areas of Cesspools The leaching areas of cesspools of different diameters may be determined from the following table: Diameter in Feet Leaching Area Per Foot of Effective Depth - S~uare Feet 3 9.3 4 12.6 5 15.? 6 18.8 8 25.1 l0 31.4 The portion of the cesspool above the bottom of the inlet pipe should be omitted in determining the effective depth. ~ne inlet to the cesspool must be 18 inches or more below the ground surface. Where household garbage grinders are installed~ the effective leaching area required should be increased 25 per cent. Multiple Cesspools One or more overflow cesspools or seepage pits connected to the rain cesspool may be constructed to obtain adequate leaching area. In such cases, the inlet and outlet connections to the main cesspool should be constructed as described for a septic tank. The distance between multiple cesspools should be at least three t~mes the diameter of the main cesspool. Main cesspools must be provided with a suitable n~nhole or removable cover of iron or concrete to give access for cleaning when required. The covers should be capable of supporting a reasonable load to prevent accidents. Cesspool ~intenance Cesspools in porous soil will function for years without maintenance. In time the soil around the cesspool will become clogged with sewage solids, preventing the leaching of the liquids into the ground. There are no chemicals which will restore the porosity of the 'soil. When the soil becomes clogged, the cesspool may be abandoned and filled in and a new cesspool constructed. It may be more desirable to h~ve the old cesspool cleaned out and to use it in connection with a new overflow cesspool. The use of chemicals and yeasts in cesspools is not re- conm~ended. Earth Pit Privies Where water under pressure is not available, an earth pit privy offers a means of excreta disposal. Earth pit privies should be located at least 100 feet from any well used as a source of water supply. A greater distance is desirable. The earth pit should have adequate capacity. The pit should be curbed from 2 inches above the natural ground surface to a depth of 18 inches below the ground. Where the soil is such that the walls of the pit require support, sheathing of the entire pit may be necessary. The curbing should be tight, but a space of 1 to 2 inches should be left between sheathing boards more t~n 18 inches below the surface of the ground to facilitate percolation of liquids from the pit into the soil. The earth pitj the riser~ and the vent must be fly tight. A self-closing tight cover is required to prevent the entrance of insects into the pit. The ground about the privy should be mounted to divert surface water away from the pit. The privy building must be flytight, well ventilated and of adequate size. The building should be constructed of substantial materials fastened solidly to the floor. Proper roof overhang should be provided to keep rain ~ter from the roof away from the mound. The roof should be constructed of watertight material. Proper maintenance of a pit privy is required to prevent the creation of objectionable conditions. It should be .kept clean at all times and deodorized occssionally with mild deodorants. When the contents reach to within 18 inches of the grotuud surface, the privy pit should be cleaned out or the privy moved to a new location. The pit contents should be covered with lime and pro- perly buried. The Board of Health of the Towu of North Andover acting under the authority of the General Laws and amendments and additions thereto~ and by any other power thereto enabling, and acting there- under and in accordance therewithj have~ in the interest of and for the preservation of the public health, duly made and adopted the following rules and regn~]ations.

Dine Director of Accounts Department of Corporations and Taxation State House, Boston Sir: As directed by you, I have made an audit of the books and accounts of the Town of North Andover for the year ending December 31, 1958j and submit the following report thereon: The financial transactions, as recorded on the books of the several departments receiving or disbursing money for the town or COmmitting bills for collection, were examined, checked, and verified by comparison with the records in the offices of the town accountant and the town treasurer. The books and accounts of the town accountant were examined and checked. The receipts, as recorded, were checked wi~h the departmental records and with the treasurer's books, while the recorded payments were compared with the treasury warrants and the treasurer's books. The ledgers were analyzed, the appropriation accounts were checked with the amounts voted by the town as shown by the towu clerk's record of town meetings, and.the recorded transfers from the reserve fund were compared wi{h the authorizations of the advisory board, while other accounts were checked with the records of the various departments in which the transactions originated. A trial balance w~s taken off, and a balance sheet showing the financial condition of the town on December 31, 1958 was prepared and is appended to this report. The books and accounts of the town treasurer were examined and checked in detail. The receipts, as recorded, .were analyzed and verified by comparison with the records in the several departments collecting money for the town, with other sources from which the town received money, and with the town accountant's books, while the recorded payments were checked with the selectmen's warrants authorizing the disbursement of town funds and with the town accountant's records. The cash book was footed, and the cash balance on February 7, 1959 was verified by reconciliation of the bank balances with statements furnished by the banks of deposit, by inspection of the savings bank books, and by actual count of the cash in the office. The payments on account of n~turing debt and interes% as entered, were compared with the amounts falling due and checked with the cancelled securities and coupons on file. The outstanding coupons were lis~ed~ and the bond and coupon account was reconciled with a statement furnished by the bank of deposit. The transactions of the several trust and investment funds in the custody of the town treasurer and the library trustees were verified, and the securities and savings bank books representing the investment of these funds were personally e~m~ued and listed. The treasurer's records of tax titles and tax possessions held by the town were examined and checked. The taxes transferred to the tax title account were compared with the ~ax collector's books, the recorded redemptions and sales were checked with the treasurer's cash book, the foreclosures were verified, and the tax titles and tax possessions on hand were listed and verified by comparison with the records at the Registry of Deeds. The records of deductions from emPloyees' salaries for Federal taxes, retirement systemsj and group insurance were e~m~ned and checked. The payments to the proper agencies Were verified, and the balances were proved with the ledger controls. The books and accounts of the tax collector were ez~mined and checked. The taxes, excise, and assessments outstanding at the time of the previous examination, as well as all subsequent conEit- ments, were audited and proved with the assessors' w~rrants issued for their collection. The cash books were footed, the payments to the treasurer were checked with the treasurer's cash book, the abatements were compared with the assessors' records of abatements granted~ and the outstanding accounts were listed and proved. The commitments of departmental and water accounts were e~amiued and checked. The collections~ as recorded, were checked with the payments to the treasurer and with the accountant's books, and the outstanding accounts were listed and proved with the accountant's ledger controls. Verification of the outstanding tax and departmental accounts was mde by mailing notices to a number of persons whose names appeared on the books as owing money to the town, and from the replies received thereto it appears that the accounts~ as listed, are correct. The town clerk's records of sporting and dog licenses were examined and checked. The payments to the Division of Fisheries and Game were verified by comparison with the receipt on file~ and the payments to the town treasurer were compared with the treasurers cash books. 106 The records of departmental cash collections by the select~m~n and the sealer of weights and measures, as well as by the health, public we/fare, school, and library dep~rtments, and by all other departments in which money was collected for the town, were ex- amined and checked. The payments to the town treasurer were verified, and the cash on hand in the several departments was proved by actual count. The surety bonds of the town officials on file for the faithful perforn~nce of their duties were e~amined and found to be in proper form. In connection with the audit of the treasurers' accounts, an audit of the books and accounts of the North Andover and Boxford District Department of Veterans' Services was m~de for the fiscal year 1958. The recorded receipts and payments were verified, and the cash balance on February 7, 1959 was proved by reconciliation of the bank balance with a statement furnished by the bank of deposit.

Six six-inch gate valves were placed. The water m~in system now con- sists of sixty-eight and nine tenths miles of main pipe, twotwelve- inch check valves, one twelve-inch altitude valve, thirty-two twelve- inch, fifteen ten-inch, sixty-nine eight-inch, seven hundred and forty-two six-inch, one four-inch g~te valve and three hundred and ninety public fire hydrants. The following six-inch cement lined water mains were placed: Moody Street, two hundred and sixty feet from Chadwick Street and one six-inch gate valve; Moody Street from previous terminus near Furber Avenue, two hundred and fifty-seven feet; Poplar Street from Greene Street, two hundred and forty feet and one six-inch gate valve; Prospect Street from previous terminous towards Furber Avenue one hundred and sixty feet; Turnpike Street from previous terminus near Chestnut Street southwesterly three hundred and thirty-five feet; Woodstock Street from Wood I~ne to previous terminous near Linden Avenue, three hundred and thirty-feet and one six-inch gate valve~ Bay State Road from previous terminous near Massachusetts Avenue, sixty-four feet. The hydrant at 503 D~le Street was moved thirty-two feet on account of the road reconstruction. Six-inch gate valves were placed on hydrant branches at ~0 Johnson Street, at 137 Andover Street and at 69 South Bradford where the hydrant w~s also re- placed. 01d iron water service pipes on Johnson Street, Andover Street, Water Street and Waverley Road were replaced with copper pipe before those streets were resurfaced. s zE 14 l~ l0 8 6 4 788 59~99 8135 43882 250350 576 16° There were installed during 1959, sixty-five new water services, six more than last ~ar. Seventeen old services were either wholly or partially renewed. The new and renewed services equalled one and two tenths miles of type "~' copper service pipe. Seventy-one new meters were installed and one hundred and ninety-seven old meters were removed~ inspected, repaired aad reset. There were seventeen service leaks, two main joint leaks, one broken water main and one hydrant broken by an automobile. All hydrants were inspected as usual and repaired where necessary. The annual inspection and re- pair of almost nine hundred gate valves and valve boxes in the system in accordance with a definite schedule constantly proves the value of such maintenance. When the Ric-Wil steam transmission line from-the South Pumping Station to the Sul~rvisor's house was found to be badly deteriorated, a new steam boiler, purchased from D. Man~ano and Sons, the low bidder, was installed in the house by department labor. The road at the South Pumping Station was treated with 1000 g~llons of ~-3 cutback asphalt. The 2 MGD Warren Centrifugal pump, installed in 1950, at the South Pumping Station, was completely reconditioned at the factory. A great deal of brush removal and tree tr~ng was done on the land at the. North Pumping Station acquired to protect the w~ter supply. Au automatic system of pump control and telemetering inst~lled at the North and South Pumping Stations by Hosmer ]<~mhall of Boston, the low bidder, completed the water system expansion program voted in 1954, with the Western Electric Company sharing the cost. O~e hundred and seventy boat registration plates were issued and two hundred and twenty-two residents were granted permits to boat and fish in Lake Cochichewick. Enforcement of the reg,~l-tion of the State Department of Public Health for preventing the pollution and securing the sanitary protection of the water of Lake Coc~ichewick, source of the town's water supply, has become serious with the increasing use of the lake for recreational purposes and the development of the shores for housing and other uses. The reservoirs were inspected by the County Engineer as required by the General Laws and found to be in satisfactory condition. Constant bacterial e~m~uations of the water have been m~de by the Department of Public Health and the water found to be satisfactory. Annual inspection of the double check valve installed between the public water supply and other sources of supply for industrial use only have been nde in cooperation with the Department of Public Health of the Commonwealth A total of 468,178,000 gallons of water were pumped by the North and South Pumping Stations in 1959. This is the largest amount ever pumped from Lake Cochichewick, the source of North Andover's water supply, and is 48 million gallons more than 1958, the previous record year. Over 50 per cent of the water pumped for the year was used by industrial and c~m~.rcial consumers. SEWER DEPART~E~T The North Andover Sewerage System is designed to flow in three divisions~ the East Side Drainage Area with its trunk sewer follow- ing Cochichewick Brook from Lake Cochichewick to the Merr~ck River; the West Side Drainage Area with its tr,~nk on Massachusetts Avenue; Waverley Road and along tM Shawsheen River to the Merrim~ck River; the Central Drainage Area bounded by Waverley Road, Middlesex and Water Streets, with trunk sewers on Waverley Road, Water Street, and Main Street to the Merrimack River. There are twenty-nine and three tehths miles of m~in sewers in the North Andover Sewerage System with eighteen hundred and sixty house connections. 27 ~4 20 18 15 12 10 8 6 (F T) 1858 7697 2422 845o 5650 5766 2o054 5o927 5198o The following m~in sewers were constructed in 1959 by the Dow Conrpany of Methuen, the low bidder: Poplar Street frc~ M~ssaehusetts Avenue, two hundred ~nd sixty feet of six-inch pipe and one manhole; Moody Street from Prescott Street, six hundred and twenty-five feet of eight-inch pipe and three m~nholes; Prospect Street from Furber Avenue, three hundred and ninety-five feet of six-inch pipe and two manholes; Highland View Avenue from previous manhole near Furber Avenue two hundred eighty-five feet of eight-inch pipe and one manhole; Chadwick Street from Drevious manhole two hundred and seventy feet of six-inch pipe and ~wo holes. Fanholes on C~adwick, Highland View Avenue, and Prospect Street were built with bricks removed from the South Pumping STation discontinued steam boilers. Five hundred and fifty-eight feet of eight-inch pipe and t~o manholes were placed on Woodstock Street from the previous manhole near Linden Avenue by the contractor for D~vid Anderson, the sub-division developer. ~he following ex- tensions to the West Side Sewer, authorized by Article 56 of the 1958 Annual Town M~eting were made by A. D'Alessandro and Sons of Hyde Park, the low bidder: Waverley Road from Greene Street sixteen hundred feet of twenty-one inch reinforced concrete pipe and six manholes; Massachusetts Avenue from Beechwood Street to Bruce Street, two hundred and twenty-six feet of twenty-four inch reinforced concrete pipe and two manholes: Bruce Street from Massachusetts Avenue to the Shawsheen River, three hundred and eighty-eig~]t feet of twenty-four inch reinforced concrete pipe and one manhole. The following sewers were constructed under articles in the ~arrant for the 1959 aran~al town meeting by Z and S Construction Company, Roslindale, Mass., the low bidder: Johnson Street from Salem Street to beyond Sutton Hill Road, eighteen hundred and eighty-four feet of eight-inch pipe and eight manholes; Milk Street from Johnson Street to Chestnut Street, fifteen hundred and forty-four feet of eight-inch pipe and ei~.t manholes: Eln~wood Street from Mablin Avenue to Massackusetts Avenue, three hundred feet of eight-inch pipe and two mant~oles; Woodstock Street Wood Lane to Linden Avenue, four hundred and forty-four feet of 137 eig~ht-inch pipe and two manholes; East Side Trunk Sewer relocation from Sutton Street southeasterly five hundred and seventy-six feet of twenty-four inch reinforced concrete pipe and three m~nholes. One hundred and twelve feet of fifty-four inch reinforced concrete pipe and a concrete junction box to connect with the existing 30 and 36 inch storm drains were installed to replace the fallen in drainage canal along Greene Street at Shawsheen Avenue by George E. Kelly of Lowell, the low bidder, in order to protect the new West Side T~,nk Sewer. Ninety-seven sewer connections, a record number, totaling sixty-six hundred and seventy-two feet were laid between buildings and main sewers. Eighty-one ?~tic111~r sewers, most of them blocked by roots were cleared. All main sewers were flushed and cleaned in the spring as usual while twenty-five critical mmin sewers were inspected and cleaned severaY times. The James A. Freaney, Inc. of Hyde Park, specialists in large sewer clearing were engaged to clear the 24 inch sewer on Massachusetts Avenue from Cc~m~onwealth Avenue to Beechwood Street when the stoppage interfered with the work being done on the new West Side Sewer. Manholes were repaired and the frames and covers raised to proper grade on the following reconstructed streets: Andover Street, Johnson Street, Water Street and Waverley Ro~d. SCHOOL GROUNDS DEPARTMENT Under the provisions of Chapter 80 of the Acts of 1954, the care, improvement and maintenance of school department property, exclusive of school buildings, was assumed at that time. The areas involved are: Bradstreet School -- 1.20 acres, Thomson School -- 3.00 acres, Kittredge School -- 6.57 acres, Johnson High School site -- 1.57 acres, North Andover High School -- 28.73 acres, and Franklin School -- 8.77 acres, a total of 49.8~ acres. The baseball fields and track facilities at the High School were m~rked out and especially prepared 25 times from April 17th to June 5th for competitive events with outside schools. The football fields were likeways prepared for lB outside ~mes. Six hundred cubic yards of loam were moved from the Franklin School to the High School for resurfacing the practice football field. 125 feet of vitrified clay dr~ius were placed fro~ the high jump, broad Jump, and pole vault pits at the High School to the existing football field &rain. The Thomson, Eittredge, Franklin and High School grounds were fertilized, mowed and maintained as usual. An outside entrance to the storage area under the Arts and Crafts roc~ at the High School w~s constructed by Cristaldi Construction of North Andover, the low bidder. 139 PARK DEPARTI~I~ The Park system now consists of the Center Con~on of 8.1 acres, Training Grounds of 1.9 acres, Memorial P~rk of 2.7 acres, 01d Burying Ground of 1.1 acres and the smaller Historical Society Plot, Farrington Burying Ground and twenty small plots at street inter- sections, a total of over fifteen acres. All the above were main- tained as usual. The North Andover Improvement Society plot of 4.9 acres between M~ssachusetts Avenue and Osgood Street was added to the Center CoE~on by the vote of acceptance at the 1959 annual town meeting, thus bringing to a conclusion, plans formilated by the Improvement Society in 1902. Forty-eight feet of broken storm drain ~as re- placed and the site of the house on the new part of the common loamed and seeded. Twenty-five tree stumps were cut off below ground to prevent ~ge to the gang lawn mowers. The Phillips Brooks statue on the Cc~mon was flood-lighted at Chris+.~. The flagpole at Memorial Park was painted. Becky's Pond on the Training Ground was maintained for skating. The recreational areas in the Playground System' now consist of Grogan's Field - 4.7 acres, ~r~ummond Field - 5.0 acres, ~rican Legion Beach - 1.4 acres, Waverley Playground - 4.7 acres, Aplin Playground - 1.5 acres, a total of 17.3 acres. The baseball diamond at Gro~ Field was maintained for use by the Junior Lea~_e and a semi-professional team. The Little League and Fsaun Testa diamonds at Waverley Playground were kept in excellent condition for a most active season. Tl~o loeal/j connect- ed twilight leagues used the softball field at Drummond Field~ rated by ~ny, as the best field in the area. The new hot top basketball courts, used extensively throughout the year, were seal coated. The roof on the shelter at Waverley Playground was shingled and 400 cubic yards of loam, moved from the Franklin School~ was placed on the i~rblehead-D~na Street level, ready for seeding in the spring. The outside of the field house at Grogan's Field was painted. Parking for an additional 25 cars was provided at the American Legion Beach at Stevens Pond by filling in adjacent to the present parking area. One hundred tons of sand were added to the beach area. The tenth annual sw~ug meet sponsored by the Veterans of Foreigh Wars, Post 2104, held on August 23, was most successful. A stainless steel slide was added to the beach equip- meat. Record attendance m~rked the beach season, June 22 to September 7. The cooperation of all other town departments is gratefully acknowledged and partictulmr thanks is given for the generous assistance of Highway Surveyor Ira D. Carry and Tree Warden, John J. Connors.

AL LIBRARY To the Citizens of the Town of North Andover: The trustees of Stevens Memorial Library take pleasure in presenting this FIFTY-SECOND ANNUAL REPORT. It gives an account- ing of the expenditure of the money you appropriated for the use of the library durin~ 1959. There is a statement of the endow= ments funds. The full annual report of the librarian to the trustees is included. Clouding an otherwise progressive and satisfactory year was the untimely death on April 28 of Gordon Timons, our custodian, at the age of fifty. He had been c~mtodian for only three years but had won the respect and friendship of the entire staff. He was intelligent, resourceful, and faithful in carrying out his duties, unstinting of extra time and working without regard to his personal convenience. The trustees extended to his wife and children their heartfelt sympathy. Appropriation $29,432.95 Check returned to Town Treasurer 1.30 Petty cash refund lO.O0 SAIAP~IES Marion F.

A total of 85,639 books, periodicals and pamphlets were circulated. This is 8,685 more than' the nt~nber issued during 1958, which had been the largest pre~;ious record. This figure does not include 864 books, borrowe~ by the Franklin School from the bookmobile operated from the State Regional Library Center and credited to the library. 544 recordings, 516 pictures and one ~p were lent. The circulation is 9 per capita, based on the 1955 State census figures. The circulation figures reflect the n,-~ber of books actually charged out to borrowers and does not include the use made of reading matter by people inside the library. The number of persons using reference material is increasing. BOOK STOCK The total number of books in the library is 27,361, con- sisting of 22,670 volumes in the adult depar~nent and 4,691 in the children'~ rocm. 983 adult books were added and 141 were discarded. In the children's dep~rtment 336 volumes were added and 81 were withdrawn. 65 of the books added were gifts. A gift in money was received from the Andover Evening Study Groups. A part of this was used to purchase Sibley's "Bio- graphical Sketches of Graduates of Harvard University," volumes i - 10, a set which we would not have felt that we could buy out of our appropriation. A sum of money was given in memory of M~rgaret Ellyn Friis to buy books pertaining to the Scandinavian countries.

Since September 1, the Franklin School has also been served, a stop being m~de there each time the bookmobile comes to North Andover. 86~ books have been borrowed. No record is kept at the school of the number of times each book circulates. Continuance of this book service will depend on the support which the ¥~ssachusetts legislators give to funds for its maintenance, since federal fund~ with which it started will be unavailable after June 1961. 1,801 adult books and 1,023 children's books from the bookmobile were issued from our library during the year. COOPERATIVE EXCHANGE WITH AMESBURY A cooperative exchange of books has been arranged with the Amesbury Public Library. Three changes of collections have been made since March l~ when the plan originated. This has made a wider choice of books available to borrowers of both libraries. CHILDREN'S ROCM ACTIVITIES The children's room continues to be busy as an increasing number of children are making use of the library. 36,~11 books were loaned. This is a gain of 4,211 over the circulation during 1958. ll,86B of the total books were lent to schools and were issued from there. 1,798 children enjoyed fifty nine story hours. 125 boys and girls completed the requirement of the vacation reading club - the reading of one book a week for nine weeks. The Children's'librarian gave book reviews and told stories in fifty-six classrooms. She reviewed books at the spring meeting of the Merrimack Valley Library Association, told stories at a Girl Scout camp, attended two film previews sponsored by tko Public Library Film Cooperative and served as a committee member of the Massachusetts Round Table of Children's librarians. NATIONAL LIBRARY WEEK National Library Week was observed from April 12 - 18 with t~he Rev. Ernest A. Bro~m~ Jr.-catting as Chairn~n, assisted by fourteen committee members. The Selectmen issued a proclan~tion which was printed and distributed. Posters and book displays were placed in some store and bank windows~ in the Town Clerk's office; and in the Franklin School, where Munro Leaf, an Andover author~ spoke at two assembly progrsm~. The library's ~ain display inside the library had as its theme "Literary Anniver- saries of 1959." It included "Poems" of Robert Burns: born 200 years ago; works by and about Charles Darwin, Oliver Wendell Holmes, Abraham Lincoln, Edgar Allan Poe~ and Alfred, Lord Tennyson, all born 150 years ago. A centennial edition of "The 152 Complete Poems" of A. E. ~{ousm~n; "A Tale of Two Cities" by Charles Dickens; "Aaam Bede" by George Eliot; "The Ordeal of Richard Feverel" by George Meredith; a new edition of Fitzgerald's "Rubaiyat of Omar Ehayyam"; "The Idylls of the King" by Tennyson; and "On Liberty" by John Stuart Mill, all published one hundred years ago were on display. Special fi lm¢ were shown to children inside the library and a film "it's Fun to Read Books" was borrowed by the library and loaned to all the elementary schools for showing there. The librarian took part in a forum broadcast over Radio station WCCM in which the m~ny services available to the public wer~ stressed. Other participants included Mrs. R. Ashton Smith; Miriam Putnam, Librarian of Memorial Hall Library in Andover; Charles ~cCabe of Andover; and ~,~rs. Eleanor C. Forman, our own Children's librarian. STAFF CHANGES There have been a number of staff changes. Miss Allison I. Kith and ~iss Esther Y. Burnham resigned, having reached the co~pu_lsory retirement age. We were sorry to lose such efficient employees. ~iss Burnham had worked both as a desk assistant and had been our chief book repairer. We have continued to use her services in repairing books under independent contract. ~,iiss Nancy Pendlebury, who is now a senior at Si~uons College in the School of Library Sc~ie.nce, assists us two evenings a week. ;',~e have also employed Mrs. Eleanor Kohrs and Mrs. ~rylees Turner as part-time assistants. '~e need another full-tim~ assistant, who has had professional training or experience. ~e were greatly saddened by the death Of our custodian, Gordon Tin~ons. We were fortunate to secure another efficient mn, William J. Thomson, as his successor. SCHOOL COOPERATION We have cooperated with the schools, not only by the lending of books but by having pupils of the seventh and eighth grades cc~e to the library to learn about the arrangement of the books in the libra~; the use of the card catalog; and how to find information in encyclopedias, dictionaries, the index to periodicals, and other useful reference books. FII~! USAGE The lending of 16 mm sound fi]ma has continued. This is a free se~ice extended to co~nunity organizations. We have m~de use of 53 films, which have had 127 showings and have been seen by 9,560 persons. IMPROVE~NTS INSIIE THE BUILDING The reading room has been m~de much more attractive by re- moving the tables formerly used and putting in four round tables. Four comfortable red chairs, at the fireplaces extend a cordial welcome to our readers. Lighting in the reference room and young peopie's room has been improved~_ the table lights having been replace6 with fluorescent ceiling l~mps. The trustees' room above the librarian's office, has had shelving installed so that many files, newspapers· professional magazines and other seldom-used records may be shelved there. This room is no longer used for meetings of the trustees. GIFTS We are grateful to all ~ho have given books, magazines or money for the purchase of them. These include Mr. and Mrs. William Andrews, A. J. Roberts, ~. and ~irs. Allan Ransehousen, Mrs. Edward Knapp, ~ir. and 14rs.

They have given book reviews and talks to any or6anization requesting such talks. The librarian is grateful to the trustees, the staff and the ct~todian for their never failing support and cooperation. Respectfully submitted, bi~RION F. BATCHELDER Librarian The librarian's repor% above, in its statistics and description of the library's activities, gives some indication of the thought and effort that have been expended by our executive director and her assistants in responding to the needs of the library users and in providing them with new and re~rding library experiences. A predominating feature of the work, that is not conspicuous in the statistics~ has been the constant effort to economize on sp~ce in all departments. Every unused area has been searched out for adaptation to some constructive purpose. This has been necessitated by the growing demands of an increasing population that are fast approaching a point where they will be too great to be cared for in the relatively small space of our present library building. Miss Batchelder keeps this space problem constantly before the trustees, who give her every possible support in trying to pro- vide changes that will make the existing q~arters more useful. But with the continuing growth of the towu ~the library must be prepared to supply expanding resources for school and college students and for an adult population with greater library needs. Our present capabilities in this direction are strictly limited by the size of the building. The library has been very fortunate in having a considerable endo~nment ~hich has produced an income of about ~B,O00 in the last year, as shown by the foregoing financial report. There have also been gifts of money during the past year, as in other years. But such income, while affording a substantial reduction in the appropriation which we request of the town each year~ does not provide for fttrther expansion of our services, except as our treasurer and finance committee may be able from tim~ to time to improve the yield from our investments. 155 It will be necessary in the near future to look for additiomml funds to enlarge our building and perhaps to provide a branch or establish our own bookmobile service. We are keenly aware of the problem for the town of a constantly increasing budget and the cost of new construction for additional town requirements, but this, of course~ is inevitable with continuing growth. In closing, we express our thanks to the townspeople and to the advisory beard for the enlightened support which they have always given to the efforts of the trustees to provide adequate library service. We are confident that they will do all in their power to assist us in the critical period that the library is now facing. BUCHANAN CHARLES, Chairn~n kRTHt~ E. SU~DERIAND, Treasurer MIRIAM F.

DAW · CALVIN Board of Fire Engineers 159 PUBLIC WELFAEE DEPART~NT REPORT The Public Welfare Department has been more active thio year than in previous years. However~ the need for acceptance of applications and granting of assistance has been diminished. The basic reason for this change has been mainly due to the additional efforts within the Department in locating unknown and available resources. Available resources and the added increase of payments has taken a tremendous burden off of the taxpayers. However, it has been recognized that numerous people do not realize the benefits and their entitlement to these benefits under certain circu~mtances. We have endeavored to make known to individuals seeking assistance these possibilities and help them to secure benefits from income and pension plans. This in effect has decreased our costs con- siderably. In 1959 we were able to decrease our assistance grants by Si1,000.00. Although we expect additional costs in 1960~ we are able to anticipate a $17,000.00 cut in our expenditures for assistance due to reimbursements. It is felt that 1960 should bring a few changes in the present benefits and possibly within the framework of Social Security and other pension plans. One is believed to be an addi'tional 5% cost of living crease' to recipients of assistance; two, availability Of housing for the elderly through the efforts of the Housing Authority; three, a possibility that persons receiving Social Security benefits ~y have medical care available. This~ however~ is still in the planning stage. We wish to extend our sincere thanks to all of the Town Departments, including church organizations~ fraternal organizations veterans' organizations, private individuals and business concerns for their hslp and assistance to our Department during the year.

The board recommended to 1959 Annual To~n Meeting an amendment to the vacation schedule of the By-Law that would place in effect a more uniform vacation plan for the Town employees. The board also recommended an article proposing a 5~ s~lary increase to employees governed by the Wage and Salary Administration plan whereby w~ges were adjusted to compensate for the increase in the cost of living since the inception of the By-L~w. This increase did not effect the basic salary rates set forth in the classification schedules. Both amendments received favorable action by the Town. After the Annual Town Meeting the By-Law was revised to include the amendment to the vacation schedule in accordance with the board policy to provide the Town with an up-to-date By-Law at all times. In the course of the year the Persomuel Board met with department heads to discuss wage problems in connection with the By-L~w and to review Job descriptions as submitted by individuals proposing amendments to the By-I~w for the 1960 Annual Town Warrant. Petitioners were notified as to whether or not the board would recommend favorable action on the proposed amendments and were advised that the responsibility of inserting amendments in the Warrant would rest upon the pet- itioner, especially if the amendment involved mn expense to the Town. Said action of the board followed receipt of an opinion from Town Counsel as to the correct procedure regarding ~m~ndments of the plan. The board, upon its own motion, has also proposed certain amendments to the By-L~w for insertion'in the 1960 ~un,~l Town Warrant. We take this opporbunity to pay tribute to former members of the Personnel Board whose resignations were accepted by the Board of Selectmen in the year 1959.

A total of two-hundred and forty-seven inspections of rough work, finished work and power-burner installations were made during the year. A total of $123.50was collected by the Tow~Clerk for permits for this work issued by same. This amount being turned over to the Town Treasurer as collected, monthly. Submitted, John J. Thompson Wire In~pe ctor OFFICE OF CIVIL DEFENSE Organization of Civil Defense on an effective basis whereby a skelton of tr~iued Ludividuals can provide the leadership and know-how mecessary in the event of an ~mergency becomes increasingly prudent. Ouly recently have we seen that our strongest potential enemy has fired intercontinental ballistics missiles do~n his Pacific range ever a range of approx~amtely 8,000 miles. This same missile fired over the pole would be capable of strik~ any point in continental United States. This advanced technology also ~kes it more and more obvious that effective civil defense depends upon the ability of the people, at the family level, to act intelligently in terms of effecting their own survival in the event of a serious emergency. We have therefore continued our organiZation, training and equiping of C. D. forces to provide the skelton of informed leadership. We have one of the few approved and accepted comounity Operations. Pls~s in the commonwealth, there being only seven in Essex County at this writi~, and at least two of these used the North Andover plan as the basis of their We have also been conducting a family home preparedness program, and issueing stickers to be proudly displayed upon the window to those householders who know the basic infox~tion ~ecessary to family survival. This Information includes recognizing the sirens signal and what it means, as well as evidencing that certain basic preparations for survival have been m~de in the home. These stickers have not and will not be issued ~romiscuously, and those householders who have received them may display them with justifiable pride. We will attempt to continue these two important programs into the coming year with the hope that there will be a growing awareness of the importance of Civil Defense TO YOU this year, and that the majority of our citizens w~ll quali~y for the prepared household sticker award. Dewey A. Dyer Director REPORT OF TEE NORTH ANDOVER HOUSING AUTHORITY In the fiscal year 10/1/58 to 9/30/59 much progress w~s made towards the build~ of the Elderly Housing project. After attending many meetings in Boston with the State Housing Board and also with other Housing Authorities that already have a completed Elderly Housing program, the board found they were ready to select the architects. After much consideration and discussion the board elected Thomas J. Pearson & Associates, Lawrence, Mass. as architects, such action receiving ~mmedi~te approval of the State Housing Beard. While in the process of selecting ~u architect, the Board also wrestled with the problem of where to build the project. Realizing the lo~tion of the project w~s of prime inportance, the Board viewed and discussed m~ny sites. Their decision finally rested with a parcel of land situated on Ernst Water Street. The architects then submitted plans on possible arrangements of the buildings. The end of the y~ar found the architects attempting to secure State Housing Board approval of the 2ayout of the buildings ~nd also the other features the Housing Authority w~nted to include in the project. During the year, al~m~inum combination storm and screen ~rLudows were installed on 132 windows on the buildings in the Veterans project. The board w~s most anxious to have combination windows on all the windows so petitions were sent to the State Hous'~ng Board for approval of such action but after overcoming problem after problem,the end of the year found the board still seeking approval for same. Through public bidding the contr~e~ was awarded to h~ve the exterior of the buildings in the veterans project painted. The contract was aw~led to Earl Pomerleau of North ~8over. The painting w~s started but cold weather forced work to be suspended until next spr~ng. ~.L~ny other repairs were made, many apartments re-decorated, and other unsatisfactory conditions remedied, maintaining the excellent condition of the buildings and apartments. Also~ during the year as in past ye~rs~ the board voted to pay the To~m of North Andover $86~.00 in lieu of taxes. 190 During the year there were five tenants that moved to other living quarters because of the necessity of larger quarters and because of other reasons. However, the board in each instances, quickly a~:~nged to have the apartments leased allowing as little loss of income to the Housing Authority as possible. The board continued of bas~ income to the · Authority on an average rental of $44.00 per unit. The following management pro~=~m, adopted in the fiscal year of 1957, w~s maintained during the present fiscal year: Rents charged shall bear the following relationship to the tenant' s net f~m~ ly income: 18% for families with one or less minor dependents 16% for families with two minor dependents 14% for families with three or more m~nor dependents $200. deduction from total family income for each minor child in excess of three in number Applicants shall be a~mttted to tema~cy in the project only if their net annul incomes are below the established income admission l~mits: Families with one or less minor dependents $3950. Families with two minor dependents 4150. Families with three or more m~nor dependents 4350. Tenants who have been admitted within the above limits will be considered ineligible for continued occul~y when their income shall be in excess of the following l~m~ts for such continued occupancy. These tenants shall be required to move from the project: Families with one or less mtnor dependents $4400 Families with two minor dependents 4600 Families with three or more minor dependents 4800 The close of the year found the Board in the process of complet~ p~a=s to build the Elderly Project along with the other problems that must be solved at the Veterans Housing Project.

Sheridan, R.N., ~l~ent ANNUAL REPORT of the NORTH ANDOVER, SCHOOL COMMITTEE To the Citizens of North Andover: At a meeting held January 21, 1960, it was voted to submit the Report of the Superintendent of Schools to the Town as the Annual Repor~ of the School Committee. FRANK D. ASHBURN, Chairman FRED G. ATKINSON MRS. TOM F. INGRAM WILLIAM F. ROCK MRS. DEAN ROSS 196 1959 ANNUAL REPORT of the Superintendent of Schools Members of the School Committee: I a~ pleased to present my third annual report, the 105th in a continuous series of Annuml Reports, and the 64th prepared by the Superintendent of the North Audover Public Schools. It is the purpose of this report, as has been the custom in the ~mmediate past, to review the operation of o~r public schools for the year 1959~ and to consider the issues and challenges for growth and development ia the year ahead. The second consecutive year of awakened public interest in American education has been a motivmting force as schools every- where have improved their services to youth. There is some ev- idence of cleavage between the minority who wo,,l~ have our schools service a relatively ~m~ll group of the intellectually gifted and the majority who would perpetuate the Americau ideal of free public education for all the children of all the people. It is my con- sidered opinion that the adoption, of a policy of education for the few would seriously weaken our nation and could very well jeopard- ize the future of our democracy. Zu our couutry, every child should be given .equal opportunity to grow intellectually, physical- ly, emotionally, socially, and morally to his individual capacity. It is to this challenging task that our public schools are dedi- cated. CURRZCULUM The first effects of curriculum changes instituted about two years ago are beginning to be evident. The modest-'success o2 some of our efforts to improve our services encourages us to continue with our research and development in many 'subject areas. Reading: Our teachers have been hard at work improving the learn- Lug process in reaAing. To our usual grouping within a given grade, we have added inter-g~de groups so that each pupil my receive instruction, drill, practice, and testing opportunities on his present level of accomplishment. Movement between groups is flexible, and depends only upon the child's achievement. Our goal always is to brLug those who are reading below grade up to grade and to stim~late all to maximum effort. The remedial-developmental program has produced many gratify- 197 Lug results. Early testing and diagnosis of pul0ils with reading problems has made it possible for the classroom teachers and the specialists to work out individ~l program~ of special help. It is not now uncommon to see pupils make subste~utial gains in read- ing level in a relatively short time as a result of concerted effort on their known weaknesses. Although spelling is often thought of as a separate subject in the curriculum~ we are concerned that poorly developed spelling skills often hamper progress in re,ding. A representative com- mittee of teachers reexamined our course of study and recommended that the teaching of spelling be closely correiated with our in- creased emphasis on phonics in reading. The committee also s~ggest- ed the ~doption of a new series of spelling materials to replace the outworn books currently .in use. The School Con~ittee accepted these recommendations ~nd approved 'the adoption of the Webster spellin~ m~terials for use in o~r elementary schools. Speech problems, defects, and difficulties in children are very o~ten contributing causes to poor progress in reading. Oar speech therapist examines all children referred to her by the reg- ~:lar teachers and sets up a program designed to help all who need assistance. Some of this work must be done thro~h Ludividu~l lessons~ some can be done in small groups. We have 73 pupils who are being helped with speech therapy. The classroom teachers re- port siEnificmnt progress in the correction of speech defects and they see parallel improvement in reading a~d comprehension. Perhaps the best way to emphasize the beg1~ings of improve- ment in our whole reading-lang~ge arts program is to review the two-year results of our standardized testing program in these same areas. We can compare the achievement of last year's Grades k through ? with their achievement as this year's Grades 5 through 8. We could expect a normal growth of one year in each area tested altho~)a it is not uncommon to find less th~n a i~:lt year's advance. We are pleased to report that in the areas of reading comprehension and vocabulary, in . capitalization~ punctuation, gr~tical usage, and spelling, our gains~ in terms of class averages~ range from a low of one full year's growth to a high of two years' and seven months ' growth. We are mindful that our program of improvement in reading and language arts is but well begun; much remains to be done. Our remedial-developmental program suffers from lack of sufficient help, and the School Committee has authorized the employment of one more q~alified teacher in this area. We propose to eXD~nd the opportuuities for help through an increased sm~w~er school pro- gram in 1960. E~tering first-graders in September, 1960~ will be three months older than heretofore and we believe that they will 198 be more nearly ready for school. These factors, together with the continued dedication of our teachers to the task of constantly im- proving teaching~ should m~ke it possible to maintain our gains in re~ding and l~nguage arts. Science: The past year has seen a stepping-up of science instruc- tion in all grades. We are participating in the 21' Classroom Natural Science Project at the fifth-grade level. Ninety classes from seven cities and twenty-three towns were selected to take p~rt in this Audubon Society-Boston University sponsored program. The science courses in the seventh ami eighth grades continue to be stimulating a~8 valuable. The high school science program benefits by this 10relim~ry preparation and pupils now are able to progress m~re rapidly in General Science. There is a contin,~fng need for a complete revision of our total science offering. We are studying now the proper grade place- ment for the beginning year of a formal science program. What is done at the elementary level will inevitably affect the secondary science sequence. The Joint committee of elementar~ and high school teachers is continuing its investigation and further action awaits their findings. Foreign L~ge: ~he elementary school French program, now in its second year, was increased from two to three periods per week for each group at the fifth- and sixth-grade levels. Experience has confirmed our original belief that the program should be offered to a selected group. It is increasingly clear ~that not all youngsters are interested in, or qualified to learn, a second language. For those who are, and w~o can meet the established standards, this program pro~ides an_ outstanding opportunity to become proficient in the l~ge by the time of graduation from the high school. We were all grieved at the u~timely death of Mr. Rene C~mpol~t~ who founded the Russfan~ ~an&~u~ge course in ~he high school. His work, so ably begun, has been carried on by Mr. Arthur Hall ami the program is now in its second year with one group of ninth and one group of tenth graders participattn~. Arithmetic: For some time our staff has been concerned about our pupihs' achievement in arithmetic. Fu~her ~lysis of our stand- ardized test results at the elements~ry level point up a system-wide weakness, particu~rly in the ski~ of computation. A teacher study committee w~s formed, representative of all elementary schools and grades, to review our aims, obJectives~ methnds~ procedures, a~d m~terials in arithmetic. A report will be made by the c~maittee to the staff a~ the School Committee setting forth its recommend- ations based upon the results of its study. 199 Social Studies: Prompted by the need for new materials to replace worn-out ~n~ out-dated textbooks in social studies, ~nother rep- resentative group of teachers is mt work revising our course of study in history and geography. This committee will submit its report and recommendations for action by the st~ff and School Com- mitee in the ~m~ediate future. Honors Courses in English: For the p~st several years the English Department has offered honors courses in eleventh- and twelfth- grade English. These courses have been well received by the stu, dents and much advanced work hms been accomplished. The Seniors have participated voluut~rily in an a~ter-sshool extension of the work of the regular classroom. It is hartening to k~ow that able young people can and will work very hard when a meaningful program is m~de available to them. Perhaps we have underestimated their capacity for learning. We are encouraged to expand our efforts in their behalf. Reporting to Parents: Periodic report cards are used to keep parents informed of pupil status Lu our schools. We are keenly a~re of the limitations of such an instrument and we are constant- ly searching for ~ays of Lmprov~ its form ~ con~ent. A com~it- tee has been at work reviewing our procedures ami it hms made some preliminary recommendations for the consideration of the staff. Some of these are: (1) the need for separate ~rks in conduct and effort; (2) a w~y of reporting the true level on which a pupil is working and the relative grade earned therefor; (3) the need for separate measures of allied accomplishments (or lack of them) such as "works well with others," '~is courteous/t "does assigned work"; (4) the need for parent-teacher conferences at stated inter?als; · (5) the need for a cumulative record card to collect all the eval- uative data which are recorded for a pUPil through the years. This committee will ~We a final report with recommendations which we hope will be re~dy for adoption by the start of the new school year. Testing: The results from the second year of our elementary school standardized testing program are proving to be most helpful. Graphic pictures of individual pupil progress emerge as profiles are plot- ted against last year's scores. Zudividual school results and those for all schools combined show us the effect of curriculum changes already made and indicate most clearly where further study of current procedures is necessary. The elementary school achievement battery is made up of ten separate tests with the results shown individually. A composite score is computed, and although it does tend to level off individ- 2O0 ual test variations, it is helpful to use it for indications of general growth for the whole school system. Thus we see in our case that in all grades four through seven the year's growth is substantially above that which w~ might have a right to expect. (These grades &re the ones for which comparative statistics are available. ) At the high school level we use a coml~rable achievement battery in grades nine, ten, and eleven. A study of composite scores for the l~st three years again shows substantial and above- average growth mdc by each class as it moves along through the high school program. Without being unduly optimistic, we feel that the limited re- sults reported above point to a steady and significant growth in the achievement levels of all our pupils at all grade levels. This observable trend encourages us to believe that our school system is improving the quali'~y of the educational program which it offers to our youth. As we study the objective results of our evaluation process we see ~ayz in which teaching methods, course sequence, contents, and emphasis, pupil guidance and counselling can be im- proved. Alert to the changing needs of our curriculum, we earnest- ly strive for greater achievement by all our pupils. Tim~ Allotment Study: Curriculum study often results in recommend- ed changes in existing subject areas or the inclusion of new ones. With a fixed school day, it is difficult to find the time for these desired cba~es. The administrative staff, with the cooperation of the teachers, has been studying time allotments in all subject areas, grade by grade. Our goal is to determine the proper balance between the many activities crowded into a busy daily program. When completed, the suggested schedule Mill serve as a guide to every teacher as he plans the work of his class. Although absolute conformity to the schedule is not expected or desired, it will serve to assure that aL1 teachers in a given grade, altho~,gn in different schools, are allowing approximately the same block of time for the teaching-learning effort in each subject area. New Entrance Age: The School Committee, after careful study, con- cluded our firsb-grade pupils would be better served if they were at least three months older upon their initial entrance to school. The Committee ~,~animously approved this change from the old en- trance age of five years, five months to the new one of five years, eight months. This additional maturity is very important to i~ture school success in that more of our youngsters will be truly ready for the dem~4s of a new and chaLlenging experience. 201 STAFF Staff changes have been at a minimum during the past year. We have been fortunate in finding qualified teacher candidates to meet our needs although we do experience considerable difficulty in discovering specL~lists for various positions on our staff. A complete list of personnel changes and a roster of school employees will be found elsewhere in this report. The State Legislature in 1959 voted a new minimum salary of $4~000 for a~ public school teachers. The School Committee re- vised our salary schedule to include the new minimum, and the new scale now is: B~chelor ' s ~ster ' s Degree Degree Minimum $4,000 $4,200 ~ximum 6,000 6,400 This schedule will not be f~}] ]ly effective until September, 1961, at ~nich time the m~ster's degree maximum will be re~ched. The salary schedule adopted and effective September l, 1959~ includes a professio~l improvement requirement that makes it necessary for every teacher to complete an approved program of study for continued progress on the salary scale. The teaching staff~ together with the School Committee, con- tinues to study the implications of a merit salary plan. No definitive report has yet been made. ~ny members of the staff are working on programs of advanced study. Two more earned their masters ~ degrees in the p~st year. An intensive art workshop was presented in ~ovember at the Franklin School and practically all of the elementary school staff partici- pated. An in-service course is being p]auned now with the cooper- ation of the New England Economic Education Council. This program is designed to help teachers to learn ways mhd means by which they can help to develop economic literacy in pupils at a~-I grade levels. It should be repeated here that there are several staff committees constantly at work on various phases of our curriculum. Assignments to these commit%e~s are opportunities ~or members to grow in their own understanding of our problems. PLANT Bids for the repair of the Thomson School, for which SBO,000 had been budgeted, came in at unexpectedly low figures. The work 202 ~as done during the later summer and the w~terproofing, rewiring, and fireproofing of air shafts turned out to be entirely satis- factory as far as we can see. The total cost w~s $23,421.36 which made it possible for the School Committee to return the uaexpended balance of $6~578.64 to the Town treasury. This school now needs extensive repairs to the ~am~ged plaster, caused by the long years of water a~m~ge. The building must be painted inside and out as a part of the summer maintenance program. ~ne Kittredge School was painted throughout during the past sumzuer. A condition existing in the ceiling of the auditorium re- quired investigation. Spalling of the concrete on the under side of the ribs made it necessary to remove the acoustic ceiling tile. Our architect is satisfied that the condition is localized and tests reveal no structural weakness. A new acoustic tile ceiling will be installed. The school buildings require a normal anount of planned maintenance incident to use and age. - Our custodial staff does an outstanding Job in keeping our schools safe, clean, and comfortable for Our use, Through the kindness and interest of the North Andover Club, a new football scoreboard with an electric ttme clock w~s donated to our high school. This long-needed addition to our £oot- ball field will be much appreciated by our team~ an~ spectators. Our sincere thanks go to the Woman's Club. Our future building needs ~re examined in a later section of this report. COST OF OPERATION Dur~nE 1959 the public schools operated within the prescribed budget. A su_~plus of $6:578.64 allotted to the repair o£ the Thomson School~ together with $9,318.79 unexpended in our salary budget~ made it possible to return $15,897.43 to the Town treasury on December 31, 1959. The major part of the salary surplus was due to the fact that we were -n~ble to employ qualified specialist personnel for positions which had been provided for by the School Committee. We again were successful in getting Federal assistance un~er Public Iaw 85-874 and we received further assistance under Public Iaw 85-864, the National Defense Education Act. State reimburse- ment for. transportation was received for the second consecutive year. We call your attention again to the fact that the net cost of operating the public schools is substamtially less th~ the amount appropriated at Town Meeting. The follo~iI~g Sl~S~rY ~y be helpful in showing our actual costs: Source of Receipts: Actuml Estimmted 1959 1960 State Aid for Public Schools State Aid for Special Class State Aid for Local Transportation State Aid for Voemtional Schools Rental of School Facilities S~le of Supplies Tuitions: State Wards Others Petty Cash Advance Federal Aid: P.

This amo~ut is made up of $116,877 in expenses and $509,947 in salaries. The increase over the 1959 budget amounts to $30,620.44, or 5.1%. A concerted effort by the School Committee, administration, and staff to hold all ex- penses at a minim~ is reflected in this relatively modest in- crease. It might be pointed out also that more tb~n ~lf ($15,897.43) of the increase in the budget was returned to the Town treasury on December 31, 1959, as an unexpended balance from the 1959 appropriation. Your attention is directed to the detailed analysis of school expenditures for the p~st five years contained elsewhere in this report. The North A~iover Improv~ment ~regram: Under the sponsorship of School Committeeman Willtam Rock, the idea for a pla~edprogram of community-Mideadult-youth education, recreation, and activity 204 opportunities has come into being. The School C~mmittee has en- thusiastically endorsed the concept of the Improv~ent Program and has provided a modest sum of money in its budget to start action as soon as possible. From simple beginnings such a program can grow in scope de- pending on what is ranted by the people of our community. The school plant offers facilities already in existence which are available for many purposes. Under the direction of a ~ or part-tim& director, paid and volunteer leaders with special skills and talents would help to carry out a year-round program of mean- ingFul activities of partielfl~r interest to the people of North Andover. Future School Building Needs: The most demanding issue as we look to the Future is that of providing more space for a growing school population. The School Building Co~ittee~ working cooperatively with the School Committee, has oeen making a careful investigation into probable Future needsj together with ways in which these new demands might be most efficiently a~d economically met. The high school enrollment prediction made last year and re- vised again this year points eonclusively to the fa~t that there will be more pupils than can be housed in our present facilities by 1962. The high school was built for a maximum capacity of 600 pupils in grades nine through twelve. There were 590 pupils on October l, 1959~ with 676 expected by September, 1960. An equally pressing problem exists at the elementary school level which has a total present capacity in four buildings of 980 pupils, with 1059 enrolled on October l~ 1~59. Estt~ted gro%~h is somewhat slower for the years ~mmediately ahead, but 1155 pupils are predicted'for 1~64. At the time of writing this report no specific recommendations can be made pending the results of the study currently underway by the School Building Committee. Work already done, however, seems to point to the wisdom of expanding our present plant wherever possible r~ther 'than to build completely new schools. The high school building and grounds lend themselves partic,~arly well to expansion possibilities. Two additions to the high school could very well be the most efficient and economical solution to the problem of housing in- creasing numbers of pupils. The first could take care of the needs for grades nine through twelve, and the second might be designed to house grades seven ~nd eight. Such a plan wo~fld fre~ rooms in the four elementary buildings so that there would be adequate space for grades one through six for the foreseeable Future. We hasten 205 to add that this is only one of several plans under study~ full explanations of the advantages and disadvantages of each will be presented to the citizens by the Building and School Committees. It is the purpose of this report at this time to alert the Town to the developing needs and the prohability that fairly prompt action ~ill be recommended by the Committee concerned. CONCLUS ION Your attention is directed to the report of the high school principal and to other supporting schedules and materials which constitute the complete summary of the year's operation in our public schools. It is difficult to express adequately our appreciation for the continued support and cooperation of the many groups, includ- ing the staff, the student body, and the Parent-Teacher Associ- ations, who contributed so generously to the success of our schools. Under the wise and able direction of our dedicated School Com- mittee, we are privileged to strive for consistent improvement in our services to the youth of our Town.

Po Ge Seniors Juniors Sophomores Freshmen ENROLLmeNT AS OF 0CTOBEH 1 76 U6 91 109 150 92 100 llO 184 102 126 194 162 137 129 196 181 It will be noted that the enrollment for the year 1959 is somewhat less than it was in 1958. This reduc- tion was anticipated, as indicated in my report of last year, and was due to the opening of the Regional High School in the town of Boxford. Seventy-eight pupils from that town were enrolled in our high school last year. Of this number, only seven were in the graduating class. Hence, it is evident that our enrollment for the present year would have been in the neighborhood of 660 pupils had not the Boxford school opened at this time. Projected enrollments for the future now indicate that by September 1962 we will be close to this figure, at which ,time our present facilities will be inadequate. CLASS OF 1959 In June 1959,. 109 pupils received their diplomas. A tabulation has been prepared by the Guidance Department, showing what these pupils are now doing. This is given below: (1) Four-year colleges 21 (2) Special schools (ot~er than four-year colleges) 32 (3) Armed forces 12 (4) ~ployed 4o (5) At home 2 (6) Married 2 208 SCHOLARSHIPS Several members of the graduating class received financial assistance in the form of college scholarships. Listed below are these scholarships and the recipients: ~Anne Messina $200 Susan Roberts 200 David Donovan Linda Champion Thelma Thompson Lois ~eserve Catherine C~wm~ings Barbara Buchanan William Paulson Earlene Foster WilliamPaulson Jane deVebre Edward Phelan Susan Roberts Catherine Cummings 400 Richard Bamford 100 Helen S.

Good Citizenship Award Linda Champion 209 Honor Society English Award David Donovan Science Award David Donovan P~R$ONNEL CHANGES As indicated in my last report, a course in elementar~ Russian has been initiated. Mr. Renee Champolliom, a member of the Brooks School faculty in North Andover, was our first instructor in this course. During the year, he became seriously ill and complications led to his death. The 0ourse was continued by Prof. Alphonse Lesinskas, an instructor at~Merrir~ck College. For September 1959 we secured a full-time instructor to teach the Russian classes Mr. Arthur Hall, a Boston University graduate, was selected by the School Committee for this position. During the summer, Miss Mary White, a mathematics teacher who had been with us for two years, resigned to accept a position nearer her mother's home. As a replace- ment for Miss White, the School Com~mlttee elected Mr. Arthur Forgetta, a graduate of the old Jo~_nson High School and of Tufts College. Mr. Forgetta majored in mathematics at Tufts and has had teaching experience in the Ipswich schools. SCIENCE FAIH For the second year, our high school conducted a science fair. Again the fair was under the direction of ~. Vincent Foderaro and hr. Thomas Hegan of the faculty. First, second and third prize winners were Douglas Wilson, a sophomore; David Palmer, a Junior and Harold Damerow, a Junior, respectively. These three winners were entitled to compete at the Lowell Technological Science Fair with 106 students from other high schools of the area. David PaLmer was the recipient of the top award made by the Lowell Fair Co~ittee. Thus, David bec~me the Lowell representative at the National Science Fair in Hartford, Connecticut at which he was awarded a fourth prize in this national competition. Because of the excellence of his exhibit at Lowell, he was awarded a scholarship for Lowell Technological Institute, to be applied after his gradua- tion from high school. 210 PHOTOGRAPHY CLUB For the last two years, the school has sponsored a Photography Club under the direction of l~. John Robinson of o~r staff. A major project of this group has been the financing and producing of a motion pictmre in color and with sound, dealing with the many activities of omr school. This project is well on the way to completion and will be ready for viewing within the next few weeks. Mr. Robinson has been ably assisted in this project by ~r. James McDonald of our Speech Department. BOIL~ING CHANGES Our original building provided three rooms for guid- ance p~rposes but only one of these was equipped as an office. Since we now have two guidance counselors, a portion of one of these rooms was recently partitioned, to be used as a second guidance office. Furthermore, the original building plans did not contain office space for the assistant principal who is in charge of attendance and ordinary discipline problems. It seemed quite essential that a private office be provided for him and, consequently, a portion of the main office was partitioned for this pur- pose. These two additional offices make for much greater efficiency in the operation of the school plant. SPEA .KIN~ CONTEST On May 15, 1959, thirteen pupils took part in the annual Annie L. Sargent Memorial Speaking Contest. First prize was awarded to Miss Sheila helley, a freshman; the second prize was won by Miss Susan Roberts, a senior and third prize, by Miss Katherine Roberts, a junior. In addition to these three prizes, honorable mention awards were made by the Judges to ~iss Priscilla McAndrew and Richard Smith, both members of the Junior Class. STUDENT COUNCIL SCHOLARSHIP During this past year, under the direction of ~s. Marion Grossman, a faculSy member and advis~r for the Student Council, a fund-raising drive was conducted to provide money for an annual scholarship to be awarded to a deserving member of the graduating class. Shares of stock were sold in the "Youth of North Andover, Inc." at fifty cents a share. 211 This plan met with splendid support and enthusiasm by various organizations and individuals within our community and $400 was raised in a short period of time by the Student Council. The first Student Council Scholarship was awarded at our graduation exercises last June. It is planned to con- tinue this scholarship award on an s~nual basis. NATIONAL MERIT SCHOLARSHIP EXAMINATION In May 1959, twenty-one members of the Junior Class took the National Merit Scholarship Examination. This examination is an annual event and is taken by a high percentage of the best students in the nation. As a result of this test, one member, Miss Sidne Lewis, qualified for the final examination; while two other members of our school, Miss Margaret ~attraw and Joseph Trombly, received letters of commendation from the National Msrit Foundation for their high scores. It should be pointed out that in order to qualify for these letters of commendation, one m~st have stood in the top two per cent of all pupils in the nation who took the examination. ATHLETICS As has been pointed out in past reports, our school offers a fairly extensive program of athletics. The main objective of this program is to develop proper skills, knowledges and understandings in %hose individuals who participate. Our accent is not on winning at any cost. However, even though the major emphasis is not placed on winning, our varsity teams have achieved more than ordin~ success. During the past year, several honors have been achieved in various sports. These are listed below: Baseball--1959 Baseball--1959 Football--1959 Basketball--1958-59 Basketball--1958-59 Lowell Suburban League Championship Class "B" Finalist in State Tournament "Little Three" Championship Lowell Suburban League Championship Class "C" Finalist, Eastern Mass. State Tournament Baseball is under the direction of Coach George Lee, football is directed by Coach Howard Crozier and basket- ball, by Head Coach Wilfred Robitaille. All of these men are members of the school faculty. 212 Until this past fall, our football field had no electric clock by which spectators and players could be informed as to the minutes remaining in each quarter. Through the combined efforts of the North Andover Woman's Club and the Coca Cola Company, a large score board and electric clock was installed. This has added greatly to the enjoyment of all games by spectators, and has been of considerable assistance to contestants, in keeping them aware of the time remaining to be played. CONCLUSI ON In concluding this report, I wish to express my deep appreciation to the School Committee, the superintendent of schools, all members of my faculty, the custodians and the various members of the Board of Public Works who have been assigned to the care of o~r grounds, for the splendid cooperation which they have offered at all times d~ring the year. Please understand that this cooperation is deeply appreciated. Sincerely yours, ALVAH G. HAYEE Principal 213 A REVISED PR0_JECTION OF ENROLLMENT FIGURES FOR NORTH ANDOV£R HIGH SCHOOL Present Enrollment in Elementary Schools (Oct. 1, 1959) Public St. Michaels Total Grade 8 ~ 5~ 213 ? 149 80 229 6 136 64 200 5 118 91 209 4 109 89 198 3 n? 94 2 133 101 234 i 131 103 234 Of the total numbers, it is estimated that an overall figure of ~5% will enter North Andover High School. This would project enrollment figures as follows for the next eight years in North Andover High: Grade 1959 1960 1961 1962 1963 _19~6_4 196~ 1966 1967 9 151 ~ ~ 170 17~1-~ 179 199 "199 10 137 151 181 195 170 178 168 179 199 11 11~;~ 137 151 181 195 170 178 168 179 Now, figuring a drop-out of 5% per year between Grades 9 and t0; Grades 10 and 11; and Grades 11 and 12, would produce the following projected enrollments: Grade ~ 1960 1961 1962 10 137 143 172 185 161 169 160 170 189 11 __~ 130 136 163 176 153 169 152 161 12 ~91 ~227 129 The above table does not take into consideration the anticipated growth of the town. Assuming that the popula- tion of North Andover will increase at a rate of 1.5% per year, and that the high school enrollment will increase at the same rate, the following figures result: Grade 9 ~ 1960 1961 1962 10 137 1~5 177 193 171 182 174 188 212 12 139 128 135 164 1~0 17 178 161 NINETIETH GRADUATION EXERCISES NORTH ANDOYER HIG~ SCHOOLS - CLASS OF 19~9 Veterans ~emorial Auditorium~ North.

The school is to be officially turned over to the Town on January 2], 1960. On October 8, 1959, a meeting was held in the assembly hall and the Franklin School dedicsted this assembly hall to the memory of Francis J. O'Brien, long-time superintendent of schools in North Andover. At the Fmrch meeting the School Building Committee regretfully accepted the resignation of Francis B. Kittredge as Chairman. We are, however, happy to report that Mr. Kittredge has consented to continue as a member of this Committee to which he has contributed so much over the years. Your School Building Committee has been working closely with the School Committee to anticipate relatively near-term needs of the North Andover school system. It is the philosophy of this Committee that we should anticipate school needs and prepare for these well t, advance so that they may reflect an orderly expansion without upset- ting the financial structure of our Town, and in line with the best educational practices as indicated by the School Committee.

Using a mist blower, we spray three times for the European Bark Beetle, carrier of the Dutch Elm Disease. Spraying for the Tent Caterpillar which feeds on the Wild Cherry e~ud Apple trees is done with a small h2~Zraulic pump. As reported last year, there was a b~d infestation of Fall Web Worm along the Merrfmack River and Sutton, Ashla~ and Riverview Streets. ~Lrrangements were m~de, during August of 1959, with the East Coast Spray Company to do airial spraying from the Andover Line along the Shawsheen River to az~ along the Merrimack River as far as the H~verhill Line. This program netted excellent results. Poison Ivy spraying w~s done along streets and on private property where it w~s badly infested. Spraying on privaZ'e property amounted to $110.25. D~TCH EL~,! DISEASE During the year~ 163. "suspect samples" were taken from Elm Trees and sent to the University of h~assachusetts Shade Tree Laboratory to be cultured. Results showed that 153 of the trees were infected with Dutch Elm Disease. All but 28 of these trees were t~ken dow~ and bt~rned. The depa~nt also removed 35 beetle infested Elm trees. A crane and crane operator were employed for a period of eight days to remove trees so badly infested with the disease they would be dangerous to climb. Payments were made to the Town Treasurer in the amount of $455.51 for the removal of Dutch Elm Diseased trees from private property. Assistance was obtained from the Department of Natural Resources, Division of Insect Pest Control, in r~movt~ Dutch Elm diseased trees. Five men and two trucks aided 249 the department for a period of ten working days. Assistance from the ~tate replaced the necessity of hiring additional employees for this purpose. The annual report from the Shade Tree Laboratory as of January 1, 1960, is as follows: Dutch Elm Diseased Trees North Andover 15~ Essex County (34 Towns) 7,178 Total for State (1941 - 1959) 84,051 Tree Department The Tree Department removed 64 dead street trees; 40 Elm, 11 posted for hearin~ and 1~ others.
