Titus, Vice Chairman BOARD OF SELECTMEN The Town's Bicentennial year has been a memorable one, the initiation of several research projects. As a result of as the Bicentennial Committee had promised it would be. The 1975 Special Town Meeting, the Selectmen were authorized to recollection of the Town's historical events was mutually initiate the Facilities Planning for .the new sewer plant and enjoyed by young and old townspeople and their many interceptors. A Downtown Planning Committee was friends from neighboring towns. The 1975 Annual Report established through the joint effort of the Selectmen andthe reserves special coverage to the fine parade, Founders' Day, Planning Board. In 1975 Mansfield again spearheadedarea the Country Fair and fireworks, and the finale of the and regional support for the Route 495 construction project; Bicentennial Ball. The Bicentennial logo is the most fitting while the work is frustrating and disappointing, the Annual Report cover to recognize this special year. Selectmen need to continue exerting political pressure for The Bicentennial events were the handywork of scores of State fundin for this im ortant hi hwa The Board of Mansfield residents serving on Bicentennial committees and subcommittees, and many civic and service clubs. The Bicentennial has fostered new friendships and promoted greater cooperation among various neighborhood and community groups. Probably this new spirit is the greatest social benefit of our recognition of the Town's 200 year history. While our Town has progressed, our 201st year involved extensive citizen effort on various boards and committees to cope with the Town's continuing municipal problems. The pace of development slowed during the year, but it only gave boards and committees a little more "breathing time" to catch up on their backlog of business. Please refer to the reports of these various boards and committees for a full description of their activities. The Board of Selectmen had an active year, especially in g p g Y Selectmen and the Health Board jointly initiated the trial -run of combined rubbish and garbage collection, to see if the inconveniences were worth the annual $20,000 savings by this approach. As always, the board chairman and Town department heads have given their annual reports special attention.. Their reports are complemented by photos and artwork. graciously contributed by MANSFIELD -lNEWS photographers Dan Trigoboff and Chris Dufresne; and Alan Johnson and Don Leedham of the SUN CHRONICLE; Mr:': Jeffrey Roche for the Bicentennial events; the Mansfield: School Department, Cabot, Cabot, and Forbes and free-lance photographer Ron Baptista. The cover design for this year's - report is the prize winning Bicentennial logo prepared by. William Faria. The Town Manager's office and the Planning office gave extra special attention to the arrangement and format so that it is easily readable and interesting. Technology Incorporated, New England Controls, and. Mansfield's own Fairfield Optical Company:. which': relocated to the Industrial Park. Financing for Codex and Fairfield Optical was made possible by the Town's Industrial Development Financing Authority. Downtown planning took a major step towards concrete reality with the creation of an enthusiastic committee which is now drawing together all the previous planning HIGHLIGHTS OF 1975 The year was particularly busy for major Town projects approved for funding by the 1975 Annual Town Meeting and the special town meetings. These major activities are highlighted below: In business and industrial development, the Codex Corporation built the large and impressive assembly center for telecommunications equipment. Joining Codex in Cabot, Cabot and Forbes Park were Carpenter 8 9 efforts and evaluating the best options. The Harvard Graduate School of Planning and Design bolstered by the planning effort by preparing a "Town Center" plan in May of 1975. In mid -1975, the Town won a $70,000 Community Development grant from the Federal Department of Housing and Urban Development. Of that sum, $10,000 will be devoted to rebuilding the dam at North Factory Pond on the Canoe River, and the balance is available for land acquisition for watershed protection. Municipal Buildings of 1975 — The priority project has been the 60 -unit Elderly Housing Project. The community arrangements of the apartment units and activity center will make this project one of the best elderly communities in the area. Of course, the High School roof repair project was the major concern of the Municipal Building Committee. Three Million Gallon Water Storage Tank donated to the Town by Cabot, Cabot and Forbes Nicest Bicentennial Year Gift — The award has to go to Cabot, Cabot and Forbes for the new three million gallon water tank which was activated in the fall. The Town owes a special debt of thanks for such a valuable addition to the water system. While it improves insurance coverage and fire protection for the industrial facilities, it is even more necessary for the Town's fire protection and for helping to meet the Town's peak water consumption. • Witch Pond Well was activated in time to meet the heavy summertime water consumption. In addition, another three miles of 12" and 16" water mains were installed along Church Street and East Street to connect to the new Dustin Well site. There, the pump house had been constructed and was awaiting the pump, motor, and electrical controls which are expected in spring of 1976. Also, over 80 water services were renewed, and the old water main on South Main Street was deactivated prior to paving the mile along the construction area there. • At the end of the: year, a site on the Canoe River was being tested, indicating that it could be a promising new well site. .Land 'acquisition for the site, if it proves acceptable, will be funded by the Community Development grant from HUD. • The Town purchased additional conservation land in the Wading River watershed, a16 -acre parcel purchased from William Sweet. The Conservation Commission also oversaw the constructionof the new Fulton Pond parking area, lconstructed ' by the DPW Highway Division. Its Kingman Pond restoration project is 999' finished, and the new pond control outlet will be constructed in summer, 1976. • The 1975 Special Town Meeting appropriated the Town's matching share for federal and state funds for Facilities Planning for the new sewage treatment system. The Town's sewer consultant, Camp, Dresser & McKee, Incorporated, began its engineering and technical research in October and expects to complete the Facilities Plan by late summer, 1976. Thereafter, construction drawings will be initiated, and construction should begin by early 1978. • The Electric Department was stabilized in 1975 after experiencing an operating deficit in 1974 while the electric rates were under review. A January 1 rate increase was necessary to offset the previous year deficit and NEPCO's rate increases. A second rate increase was necessary in July to cover another wholesale rate increase granted to NEPCO by the Federal Power Commission. Along with several other municipal electric departments, Mansfield successfully negotiated with NEPCO to terminate the wholesale power purchasing and to instead convert to a "contract demand" arrangement. Because of Mansfield's favorable load factor, the rate should be advantageous and may even enable the Board of Light Commissioners to slightly decrease the electric rate by summer of 1976. TOWN MANAGER While preparing material for this report, I re -read the 1974 Annual Report. In retrospect, our financial outlook was very optimistic. In the year's lapse, Mansfield's economic position has felt the "stagflation" in the regional and national economy, state cutbacks in aid to cities and towns, and a slower pace of commercial and industrial development. The tax assessment base will have increased, but not as impressively as in the last three years. Particularly, the state "Cherry Sheet" distributions to Mansfield were slashed when the state updated its "equalized valuation" basis for distributing state funds to cities and towns. It is unlikely that the State will be any more 10 helpful in Fiscal Year 1976-77, either. State cutbacks only lead to greater local reliance on the real estate and personal property taxes, despite the popular debate in the legislature for tax reform. All of these concerns have led to several major efforts: An aggressive effort to apply for any federal and/or state funds to finance Town programs. The Town was successful in gaining a $70,000 HUD grant for watershed protection. These funds will purchase another well site which can be reserved for future Town use. By year's end, another application was being prepared for HUD's 1976 Grant Program. That application is for $100,000 improvements to Back Bay Brook. The sewage treatment planning grant from EPA and the State Division of Water Pollution Control was awarded in the fall, after the Town negotiated with EPA and its engineering consultant to receive a maximum planning effort for the Town's local contribution. Steps were taken also to qualify for federal reimbursement for our several -year effort to seal the sewer lines from excess infiltration. ], • Close scrutiny was also given to other- engineering contracts. My office negotiated a $12,000 savings in the design and engineering contract for the Dustin Well project. A smaller savings was also realized for design of the sludge concentrator facility at the treatment plant when funding was determined to be inadequate for all of the construction expenses. For the Downtown Plan, free design services were made available by a Planning class at the Harvard Graduate School. Also, Town staff �'. prepared our Community Development grant applications, further avoiding any consultants' fees. • Administrative and purchasing procedures are being revised so as to take advantage of shvings in regional purchasing and the State Purchasing Bureau. The financial audit of the Electric Department and the p;. vacation of the Police Department pinpointed other areas where improvements are being made. I am hopeful that my participation in a "computor user needs committee" for the non-profit municipal consultant organization, Public Technology, Incorporated, will also help the Town in determining which functions can be more economical through automation. • Other sources of revenue have been investigated. Water and sewer rate increases are likely, in order to offset operating and capital expenses for those utilities. Electric rates have stabilized momentarily. The Town's participation in the Massachusetts Municipal Wholesale Electric Company will enable us to purchase ownership in new power generation plants which can provide cheaper sources of electric power. In the immediate future, Mansfield's financial interest is to participate as vigorously as possible in these deliberations. • Budget control was a priority effort in preparation of the department's spending and capital improvements recommended for Fiscal Year. 1976-77. Many of the operating budget accounts were reduced, and many "A" priority improvements have had to be deferred. The 1976 Annual Town Meeting will have some difficult decisions and choices in appropriating funds for next year, but the Board of Selectmen and the Finance Committee have been given detailed budget data upon which to make their recommendations. Goodyear Blimp at the Mansfield Municipal Airport PLANNING BOARD The function of the Mansfield Planning Board is for the overall coordination of planning activities within the community. The Board is responsible for the review and approval of subdivisions, as well as the coordination and inspection of all required improvements within these developments. It is the responsibility of the Planning Board to review the subdivision plans with respect to the layout and location of the proposed street systems, storm drainage systems, water and sewer systems. The Planning Board reviews all proposed zoning amend - 11 ments and is required by law to make a formal recommendation at Town Meeting. The Board also reviews and makes recommendations on capital expenditures.' It. is also the policy of the Planning Board to make recommendations on all Zoning Board of Appeals applications. During 1975 the Planning Board spent many hours during Planning Board meetings and on on-site inspections- of proposed subdivisions and ultimately took action on the following subdivision plans: Village Estates II - APPROVED - This subdivision is a continuation of the Village Estates I subdivision located off Elm Street in West Mansfield. It contains 25 lots which will be developed for single family residence.

The rl significant element of this plan involves the relocation and lowering of the Back Bay Brook. The lowering of the Back Bay Brook was recommended in 1970 by Camp, Dresser, McKee in the Drainage Master Plan. t The Planning Board signed 31 plans as "Approval Under the Subdivision Control Law Not Required". These plans ., 1p included 46 lots for residential use. _ r!� The Planning Director, acting as the Planning Board Agent .has inspected and co-ordinated construction of all " ® t roads in approved subdivisions.

The job was about half done when the weather became too cold and wet for proper roofing. Since the best possible job is wanted, the job was closed down until spring- time. This interruption in the work will give the Municipal Building Committee the opportunity to evaluate the performance of the completed portions of the roof during the coldest and snowiest winter in recent years. was as year. The Public Library Trustees have met with the Committee. They asked our assistance in retaining a professional library consultant to help plan for improved library services in Mansfield. This may eventually lead to renovation or expansion of the Public Library Building overlooking the South Common.

Peak demand for the December billing was 22,066 KW versus 16,900 KW in 1974, an increase of 25%. The total consumption for the year was 105,901,263 KWH, an increase of 22% over 1974. At the 1975 Town Meeting, it was voted to accept the provision of Chapter 164A of the General Laws, allowing the Municipal Electric Department to join the New England Electric Pool (NEPOOL) and the Massachusetts Municipal Wholesale Electric Co. (MMWEC). Joining NEPOOL enables this department to negotiate through MMWEC, the purchase of wholesale power at the best possible rate, and to purchase entitlements into Power Generating Stations with Town Meeting approval. Mansfield, along with twenty-four other Municipal Electric Departments, is currently engaged in engineering and feasibility studies for their own generating station to be located in Ludlow, Massachusetts. New construction projects have included the installation of two new 13.8 KV feeders emanating from the McRae -Ferrier Substation on Gilbert Street, extension of overhead and underground services at Interstate 95 Industrial Park at 495 (Cabot, Cabot and Forbes), a new 13.8 KV feeder to the Dustin Well site off :East Street in East Mansfield, a new 13.8 KV underground service to supply the housing for the elderly off Pratt Street, and the town's first underground residential development at Circle "C" Estates off West Street.

The Board of Selectmen, in accordance with the General Laws, have printed the audit as prepared by Arthur Young and Company, employed by the Board of Selectmen for an audit of the Electric Department from a period beginning January 1, 1974 to June 30, 1975. Printed below is the introductory letter from Arthur Young and Company and the statement of income and loss for the 3 -six month periods. The full text, of the report, along with several pages of related financial information, is on file with the Office of the Town Clerk and the Selectmen's Office for any resident interested in a complete review of the report. ARTHUR YOUNG & COMPANY One Boston Place Boston, Mass. 02102 The Board of Selectmen Town of Mansfield, Massachusetts We have examined the accompanying balance sheet of the Town of Mansfield — Municipal Light Department at June 30, 1975 and the related statements of income, surplus and changes in financial position for the eighteen months then ended. Our examination was made in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, and accordingly included such tests of the accounting records and such other auditing procedures as we considered necessary: in the circumstances, except as set forth in the following paragraph. Due to a fire in 1970, documentation supporting the original cost of utility plant in service acquired prior to. 1970 is not available. The records of the Town of Mansfield— Municipal Light Department were not such as to permit us to apply adequate alternative procedures to satisfy ourselves regarding the cost of the portion of utility plant placed in service prior to 1970. In our opinion, except for the effects of such adjustments, if any, as might have been determined to be necessary had we been able to verify the cost of utility plant placed in service prior to 1970, the statements mentioned above present fairly the financial position of the Town of Mansfield — Municipal Light Department at June 30, 1975 and the results of. operations and changes in financial position for the eighteen months then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles applied on a basis consistent with that of the preceding year. Our examination has been made primarily for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole. The accompanying supplementary information is presented for analysis purposes and is not necessary for a fair presentation of the financial information referred to in the preceding paragraph. It has been subjected to the tests and other auditing procedures applied in the examination of the financial statements mentioned above and, in our opinion, except for such adjustments, if any, as might have resulted without the limitation of our examination with respect to the portion of the cost of utility plant placed in service prior to 1970 as described in the second preceding paragraph, is fairly stated in all respects material in relation to the financial statements taken as a whole.

POLICE DEPARTMENT The automatic filing system was made operational in June and most of our records have been converted to the new system. In late December a request was made to the Massa- chusetts Public Institute for their free research assistance to evaluate our operating procedures, manpower resources, organization, and rules and regulations. The objective is to modernize procedures for receiving and processing complaints and cases. Four new men were added to the Mansfield, Police Department in the year 1975 to fill vacancies. They entered the State Police Academy in Framingham, Massachusetts for a twelve week period, graduating on February 6, 1976. With the addition of these men we hope to serve the inhabitants of the Town in a more efficient manner. In September of 1975 Sergeant Robert K. Jones graduated from the FBI National Academy at Quantico, Virginia after an extensive twelve week training course, taking in all phases of law enforcement. A Civil Service Sergeant's examination was held for officers of this department. Five officers participated in this examination. When the results of the examination are known, the appointment will be made. During the year 1975 the Auxiliary Police greatly assisted this department. Also the women crossing guards have greatly assisted the community in protecting the safety and welfare of our school children crossing the busy roadways on their way to and from school. The following comparison of activity in 1974 and 1975 emphasizes the changing pace and characteristics of complaints. Most notable is the jump in burglaries, mostly in residences. Petty thefts and vandalism are also more frequent. POLICE DEPARTMENT STATISTICS. 1974 1975 ".

Full time personnel consists of the Chief, the Deputy Chief, the Lieutenant, and fifteen firefighters who work a forty-two hour week. In addition, there is one part time CETA civilian secretary. Permanent firefighters perform the bulk of the maintenance work on the rescue and fire equipment, the fire prevention activities, and the inspection of buildings. The inspection of buildings and the maintenance of the fire alarm system are becoming increasingly more important with the expansion of home and industrial development. The firefighters are presently enrolled in Emergency Medical Training as prescribed by State regulation. By July 1, 1977, all permanent personnel will have to be certified in accordance with this program. Fire protection depends largely on the proper operation of the fire alarm system. Mansfield's municipal fire alarm 28 system is being kept up to date through daily testing. The addition of new and replacement of old equipment is most important. By a well planned program each year, we can expand effectively, keep up to date, and provide residents in this area with excellent and dependable fire protection. Fire Department Rescue at West Mansfield cave In In 1975 the Annual. Town Meeting appropriated the balance of the $125,000 required for the purchase of the 100 foot aerial ladder truck. The delivery of the new truck is anticipated within the next year. This truck will replace the existing 1947 65 f oot ladder truck. From December 1, 1974 through November 30, 1975, the ambulance traveled 22,013 miles and made 788 trips. The ambulance also made 118 calls for oxygen and 33,007 lbs. of oxygen was used. The Rescue Truck assisted at 235 fires and on 37 ambulance runs. During 1975 a total of 36,346 gallons of water was pumped from the tanks on the trucks, and a total of 42,790 feet of hose was used. In 1975 there were a combined total of 1,318 fire incident runs, which represents an increase of 34% over 1974. The following summarizes detailed statistics on the Fire Department: FIRE CALL TOTALS In Town Alarms No. of Alarms Accidental Alarms 25 Assist Ambulance 76 Automobile 72 Brush Fire 94 False Alarms 66 First Aid (sole activity) 13 Hydrant 9 Miscellaneous Alarms 128 Mutual Aid and Mutual Area Alarms 36 Inspections Installations - new or additional oil or gas storage tanks, bottled gas, etc. 59 Maintenance- oil burner, chimneys, etc. 69 Fire Alarm and Sprinkler Automation 354 Commercial and Industrial -building safety 49 Review buildings and sprinkler plans, etc. 33 Investigations - false alarms, suspicious origin, etc. 147 Injuries and Fatalities - Fire Related Injuries - Residential Injuries - Commercial or Industrial Injuries - Car fire alarm BuildingAlarms Buildings - by Category Barn or Shed Commercial Building Industrial Building Ocupied-Residential Single Family or Duplex Apartment Building or Unit VacamBuilding 0 0 0 CODE ENFORCEMENT Code Enforcement involves the inspection of new construction at various stages of the project; as well as the reinspection of many existingfacilities to determines that they meet current Federal, State and Local codes.Code Enforcement personnel include the Building Inspector, who is responsible for the inspection of all new construction and zoning administration; as well as the: inspection of septic systems and enforcing certain regulations ofthe :Board of Health. The Plumbing, Gas and Electrical Inspectors are responsible for the inspection of installation of those- respective facilities. The Fire Chief is also responsible for enforcing the fire code. The Sealer of Weights and Measures is responsible for certifying the accurance of scales and pumps used in commercial enterprise. In order for the code enforcement procedure to work effectively there has to be close coordination for inspections between the various individuals inorder to insure compliance with existing codes. The following lists the permits issued for the last four years: 1972 1973 1974 1975 Building 361 313 323 278 Plumbing 188 191 115 127 Gas 230 177 109 75 Electric 261 233 214 179. Fees collected for plumbing inspections for 1975 were $3,520.00. Fees collected for gas inspections for 1975 were $718.00. Fees collected for electrical inspections for 1975 were $1,841.99. Building permits issued are a good indication of the total construction activities in any one year, as a building permit represents the major portion of construction. The following 29 lists the detailed breakdown of building permits issued for 1974 and, 1975: 1974 1975 Single Family.

BOARD OF APPEALS The Zoning Board of Appeals held a total of twenty-one meetings during 1975. Thirty applications were considered by the Board. Two applications were withdrawn before the hearings were held. One applicant failed to appear for a scheduled hearing thereby defaulting the petition. One application was withdrawn during the hearing because of incomplete plans. A hearing was held for Owens-Illinois to reduce the 500 foot setback on their property abutting the Housing Authority property to 450 feet. It was granted. Two existing gravel removal permits were renewed for one year after public hearings. The Board granted two requests to enlarge the area to be used by non -conforming businesses. A total of twenty requests for direct variances were received. A variance was granted to allow a pony to be kept in a residential zone. Three variances were granted to allow signs larger than allowed by the By -Law to be erected. One was restricted to a two year time period. Two requests to divide parcels of land into lots with non -conforming frontages were granted. Lot areas on two lots were also non- conforming. Four petitions to establish building lots with non -conforming frontages were heard. Two were granted and two denied. One request also included non -conforming side yards, which was also granted. Two requests to erect dwelling additions with non -conforming side and rear yard measurements under Section IV, Schedule `B" were heard. Both were granted. There were two requests to grant variances for dwellings already in existence that were placed incorrectly on the lots. One was granted and one denied as the Board felt it was the builders responsibility to correct the situation. Four hearings were held to convert dwellings into more apartments than allowed under the Zoning By -Law, including one petition that was denied and resubmitted a few months later. The second time it was granted. Two others were denied. A variance request to erect a building on a lot with a non -conforming frontage and non -conforming side yards, also requiring a determination on the establishment of a business welding farm equipment in an Agriculture Zone was granted. A variance request to use an existing building in a Residence "B" zone as a gasoline station and for the sale and service: of motor vehicles and parts was granted, while an Appeal from a Decision of the Inspector of Buildings to use the same property without a variance was denied. CIVIL DEFENSE Approximately 8,000 volunteer manhours were expended by members as follows: communications 4,200;. auxiliary police 2,200; administrative 1,800; medical 800. A'total `of':45 people, not in Civil Defense, were also given: first-aid training, including cardiopulimonary resuscitation;: I: by Mansfield Civil Defense. The communications group expanded their operation to include a motorist aid patrol during peak traffic periods, aiding many motorists reports of accidents and other emergency situations were forwarded to the proper authorities from Civil Defense personel at the scene via two- way radio. We also participated in the monthly state radio drills, as well as those held on a local level. A high level of volunteer manhours continued in the auxiliary police group, despite the fact that the men were also filling in for the regular police as specials. Although there were no disasters this past year, parts of 30 our Emergency Operation Plan were tested. A simulated search operation was conducted at the local level and a winter storm at the state level. Those parts of the plan that have proved unworkable have been revised. Our major operation this year was the Bicentennial Parade. A communication network, along the parade route and several medical stations, were set-up with the help from surrounding communities. A total of 192 people were treated, 42 within a 30 minute period, 14 requiring hospital treatment. The emergency operations center became partially operational in October with the installation of the antenna system. With the completion of the electrical connections, scheduled in January 1976, the EOC will be 90% operational DOG OFFICER In 1975 more dogs: were sold and placed in homes than in previous years. This was due to articles printed in the Mans- field News describing the dogs at the pound, and the efforts of Jean Bebout Residents of the Town have also made donations of dog houses and food to assist in the operation of the Dog Pound at the Mansfield Wastewater Treatment Plant. The donations of food have enabled the Town to keep dogs beyond the seven day limit, giving each dog'a chance to find a new home. , In 1975, 250 dogs were inoculated against rabies at the Dog Officer Jocelyn Rosado Annual Rabies Clinic held at the Fire Station. Another major clinic is scheduled for Spring of 1976. All residents of the Town are urged to license their dogs. These licenses are available at the Town Clerk's Office and are also issued at the Annual Rabies Clinic. These licenses run from April ist to March 31st of the following year. The following are the annual statistics of the Dog Officer: BOARD OF HEALTH The Board of Health in 1975 for the first time sponsored a Health Fair. It was held on October 28, 1975. Elaine Butt, Maureen Canner, Barbara Paulsen, Marie Connor were the chairmen. There were volunteers from Girl Scouts, Boy Scouts, High School students, senior citizens, town nurses. Industries and businesses were of great support to this venture. The Lions Club paid for the Glaucoma Clinic which had 309 people participate. Optometrists from Massachusetts College of Optometry and the local optometrists worked at this clinic. Oral cancer — Local dentists ran thispone and there were 277 people examined. Diabetis testing -327 people Hypertension -362 people Anemia — 294 Respiratory — In the four hours it was working, 136 people were checked by Sturdy Memorial Hospital volunteers. There were also booths set up by our Fire Department about first aid and displayed out ambulance. The Police Department had a booth about drugs. Other booths were all health oriented. A follow-up is being carried out on people who were found to have problems. As was done in years before, six immunization clinics were held under the direction of the Community Health Agency. One flu clinic was held with 205 people immunized. This year the State held the lead poison clinic for children.

The power sweeper was worked from early Spring to late Fall covering the Town on a biweekly basis. Signs were replaced and painted, guard rails were straightened and repainted. Shrubs were trimmed and flower beds were weeded. Traffic control lines and signs were maintained. The Division is responsible for snow removal from all Town streets as well as the Municipal Sign maintenance program Airport. Snow accumulation was below average with the largest accumulation being the 10 inches on February 5, 1975. Major work included the following: . In conjunction with the installation of water mains and sewer extensions, a total of 2.6 miles of streets were resurfaced with bituminous concrete. They are as follows: South Main Street from Willow Street to North Main Street East Street from Pratt Street to Route 106 by-pass Atwood Street Part of Branch Street • Drainage improvements were made at the following locations: West Street at the Town Hall' Rumford Avenue at Fulton Pond area Otis Street from Gilbert Street to Sweet's Pond Atwood Street, Ware Street, Plain Street;: Angell Street, Riverside Drive, and Gilbert Street s The rodding machine was used to clean and unplug storm drains throughout the central part of Town. Hand crews were used to clear brush and debris from the brooks and drainage ditches. • Concrete sidewalk repairs were made on South Main and Cottage Streets. Maple Park improvements included learning of the gravel slopes,.resanding the beach area and removing dead trees. A parking lot was constructed and paved, complete with drainage, at: Fulton Pond off Rumford Avenue. • A carriage shed was built at the Fisher Richardson,'. House on Willow Street using a CETA employee: and the Highway crew and equipment MOTOR POOL DIVISION The Motor Pool Division of the Public Works Department consists of one mechanic' and his helper. They are responsible for the maintenance and repair of all the motor vehicles and heavy equipment in the Highway, Landfill, Water and Sewer, and Park` Departments. They are also re- sponsible for the underpass pumps at North Main Street and Chauncy Street, the emergency generator and heating units at the Town Hall and Police Station. Major repairs were made on the following equipment: North Main Street pumps rebuilt Landfill Bulldozer — engine and undercarriage rebuilt Trojan Loader — valve job 33 International loader backhoe— cylinder head and piston SANITARY LANDFILL Portable air compressor — engine and compressor Operations are conducted by two men at the landfill, the rebuilt bulldozer operator and a caretaker, who also has salvage rights. The estimated useful life of the present area is Town sand spreaders — new conveyors approximately 2 years, expansion will be needed by 1978. This will involve the development of the land area adjacent to Trucks Nos. 6and 7 — new clutches the present site, which was purchased in 1974. Forman Al Carpeno and Engineer Ronald Dubuc inspecting the South Main Street paving job ENGINEERING DIVISION Throughout the past year the Highway Engineer has been involved in highway, traffic, drainage, airport, sewer, water and other related DPW projects. The scope of these projects included field work, calculations, plans, specifications, contracts, bids, and field inspection. Legal research for these projects was conducted at the Registry of Deeds, Registry of Probate, and Superior Court. Some of the major projects included the remodeling of the Library restrooms, the Atwood Street Sewer Extension, the Improvement of the Chlorination Facilities at the Waste - 34 water Treatment Plant, the Stearns Avenue Water Main Extension, the Road Data Booklet, the Sidewalk Inventory Study, the Sludge Dewatering Facilities at the Wastewater Treatment Plant, and the preliminary plans for the improvements of portions of Back Bay Brook. Future projects include the layout and const action of Williams Street, the construction of improvements to portions of Back Bay Brook, the development of a traffic and pedestrian by-law, and landfill improvement and expansion. WATER DIVISION In the year 1975 the Water Division installed 508 meters, 20 new services, 16 valves and 10 hydrants. A total of 184 services and leaks were repaired during the same period. A total of 686,719,600 gallons of water was pumped in comparison to 646,641,900 gallons the previous year. Within the past year many extensive projects have been successfully undertaken. The following is a brief outline of improvements made throughout the Town: • Cate Springs pump was replaced by a newer and updated model. . The new CC&F standpipe was completed and was on line by mid October. The total storage capacity of the tank is 3,000,000 gallons, of which 600,000 gallons is used for gravity feed to the system. • The construction of Dustin Well is underway at present. This new well is expected to be in service by May 1976. • Witch Pond Well off of Plain Street is another major asset to our water system. • Further projects included the replaQement of 83 South Main Street services, each of which was tied into a new 12" main. Stearns Avenue was yet another area in Town of major interest this past year. Mansfield tied into the Easton water system for the purpose of supplying water to the areas residents whose private wells were not adequate for sufficient supply. The last of our new construction projects including the this area all of the old hydrants were replaced to give better fire protection. 10,900 feet of pipe was laid by Gabriel Construction from Church Street to the intersection of Route 106 and East Street. 7,490 feet of pipe was laid by Kenefic Construction from East Street to the new Dustin Well. SEWER DIVISION In the year 1975 the Mansfield water pollution abatement facility effectively treated approximately 373 million gallons of wastewater at an average daily flow of 1.0-mgd (million. gallons per day). The total of treated wastewater gallonage remained constant with that of 1974 despite additional connections and sewer extensions. The total precipitation for the year was approximately 50.77 inches which shows an increase of about six inches. The infiltration has been cut substantially by the sewer sealing program conducted by Penetryn Systems since 1974 when flows exceeded 4.0-mgd on numerous occasions with the sanitary sewers surcharged for extended periods of time. The efficiency for the removal of pollutants decreased sharply with the exception of BOD. The reductions were as follows: Settleable Solids 7.6 MIA 1.6 ml/1. 79% Total Suspended Solids 182.0 mg/l 91.0 mg/l 50% Five -Day BOD 307.0 mg/1 33.0 mg/1 89%„ Because of the increased strength of the incoming waste and its toxic effect upon the process stabilizing bacteria wet major industries to identify and isolate major source pollution. This year the comminutor was completely rebuilt in addition to one small pump. All other equipment was maintained to extend life at regular intervals. The chlorination Station was reconstructed this year by contract and was placed into immediate service. A new electrical service was installed underground by the Municipal Electric Light Department for the station. The sludge drying beds were used extensively in combination with polyelectrolyte chemicals to dewater a total of approximately 245,000 gallons of sewage sludges to 168 cubic yards of moist residue which was deposited at the sanitary landfill. Construction began in late October for the sludge dewatering facilities:`. With the foundation and external piping installed thetarget date for completion is the early Spring of 1976. PROPOSED SEWAGE TREATMENT FACILITY In 1974-75 the Town took on the responsibility of co- ordinating the efforts of Mansfield, Foxboro, and Norton towards the formation of a three town sanitary district in accordance with the requirements of the Environmental.' Protection Agency. Under this proposal a sewage treatment In order to establish the district all three towns had to vote affirmatively on the issue. At the Annual Town Meeting, Mansfield voted to join the District. However, in May, Foxboro and Norton voted not to join the District. This left the Town in an awkward position of not being able to solve the problem in accordance with Federal requirements. Mansfield petitioned the State Division of Water Pollution Control to permit the planning for a Mansfield sewage treat- ment facility in Norton. The State and EPA approved the Town's request provided that additional capacity was available for Foxboro and Norton. A Special Town Meeting in June appropriated monies as the Town's share for the planning of this project and authorized the Board of Selectmen to administer the grant for the facilities planning and ultimate design and construction. Camp, Dresser, McKee was awarded the contract for the facilities planning and it is expected that the work will be completed in September of 1976. The Town Meeting also authorized the Selectmen to petition the General Court for the right to acquire land by eminent domain in the Town of Norton. This includes the land for the railroad right-of-way as well as the land for the treatment plant. Provided the planning and design of this project continues on schedule and the Town encounters no serious problems, it is anticipated that the new treatment plant will be in Artist tendering of the wastewater treatment plant located at Waterville, Maine. This plant is similar to the one proposed for Mansfield which will be constructed in Norton. 36 Library use has increased with Mansfield's growth, the Town's support of library funding and the condition of the economy. Users took out significantly more non-fiction and magazines. With back issues of periodicals available for indexing magazines, local residents can find up to date material on their wide variety of interests. Over 20% of general books adults borrowed were in the field of practical arts, such as home improvement, auto repair, and gardening. Borrowers showed significant interest in interior decorating, handicraft, and sports. More than 30% of children's non-fiction borrowing was in the area of handicraft and sports, with notable use of books on animals, fairy tales, and practical arts. The aim of all in the Library continues to be to give the best service possible to every individual who -comes to or calls the Library. The popular Armchair Expea tions, story hours, and summer reading and drama programs have helped bring Mansfield residents to their library and demonstrate different materials in the collection. The Massachusetts Eastern Regional Library System has provided a series of film programs on the arts, young adult films, and many special children's film programs as well as exhibits of Polish Paper Cutting and Landscape Photography. National Library Week featured a talk by the author -artist David Macaulay and a puppet show by Johnny Sisson. Volunteers have given a big assist. Max Schanz led a stamp collectors group. Ms. Debbie McNeilly conducted dinosaur workshops and showed Arabian folk art. Mrs. Edith Ennis, Miss Frances Roots, and Mrs. Diane Sullivan have helped with story hours. Nancy Button and Cindy Kay gave a puppet show for an enthusiastic audience. Twelve Park Row School classes and three from the Roland Green School visit the Library regularly. The Paine Madeline Taylor, Circulation Librarian Candy Bowers, tat Assistant Librarian and Children's Librarian School has used book deposits. Librarians have visited fifth grade classes at the Robinson School. Several sixth grade classes have walked to the Library for a visit. To make the Library more useful, scheduled hours have been increased. The Library regularly opens at 12 noon Monday through Friday, and is open a total of 50 hours per week. There is an open-door policy if staff are on duty in the morning. The Trustees have adopted a Materials Selection. Policy to guide the library staff in acquisitions,: gifts and discards. A major project continuing in all departments isa. review of the collection to determine what titles are of current interest to borrowers and should be retained. A: coin: operated public copier is available and well used. Groups have used the Library's facilities after regular public hours and are welcome always. The Trustees regret the resignation of Mr; from their board. His accomplishments as ; many; especially notable were his. arrangement of the monthly Armchai programs. Mrs. Marion Horton was appointe has taken initiative and responsibility to', programs and develop public information proj In January, Mrs. Candy Bowers was aj Assistant Librarian. She continues also Librarian. Mrs. Kathy Bennett was app Assistant Librarian with responsibility,. processing, financial and secretarial a( Madeline Taylor was appointed Circulat concerned with efficient and friendly desk seri Mrs. Laura Chapman, President of the Friends of the Library for several years, resigned in the spring. The Trustees and staff appreciate her interest, good will, and 37 Kathy Bennett, 2nd Assistant Librarian kindness in support of the Library. Mrs. Ruth Booth, Trustee Emeritus of the Library was elected new President of the Friends. The group has conducted book sales to benefit the Library and is organizing many friends to provide refresh- ments for library programs. The Friends are sparking a regular library news column. The Trustees thank all in Town who have helped in so many, way$ during the year. Town departments and officials have assisted the Library uncounted times. Exhibits were provided by David Horton, Percy Burrows, Jean Barrett and Madge Porrazzo of the Bicentennial Fair, Sandra Levine and: Andrea Antaya (the Bicentennial Sisters who took the names' "Arsenic and Old Lace"), Brian Gilleran and Ida Povey. Armchair Expeditions programs were given by David Ingram, John Fuller, Barney Holmberg, Roy Lindquist, Clyde Freeman, Miss Dorothy Gifford, David Horton, Roger Everett, and the Mansfield High School Concert Choir under the direction of Miss Barbara Trombley. The Trustees are grateful for a wide variety of gifts. The Mansfield Teachers Association gave two memberships to the Boston Museum of Fine Arts, providing free admission to Mansfield people. Friends of our late librarian have given to -- the continuing Mary C. Colpas Scholarship Fund, the Old Dartmouth Library Club taking the initiative in assembling a large contribution. Donors have helped with new, historic; especially needed materials, and their own works. 38 Memorials: To Charles Booth from Mrs. Paul Moody To Mrs. Mary Colpas from Friends in Wales To Mrs. Harrison Morse from Mr. and Mrs. Jack Grigsby To Mrs. Muriel White from Edward Beatty Also from: The Christian Science Monitor The Literary Division of the New Century Club The Mansfield News The Philathea Club of the United Methodist Church Rev.

Beginning with the summer recreation program held at the three Town parks, children and adults were active and involved in daily arts and craft programs and biweekly bus trips. Recreational programs during the summer months included the playground program, Maple Park swimming program and Memorial Park tennis. Total registrations for the summer playground program was for 591. children. The youth swimming instructional classes at Maple Park totaled 189. Of these 43 were certified in either the beginner or advanced beginner classification. Memorial Park tennis courts saw a total of 244 players reserving the courts for a total of 1567 hours. This does not includgthose who have used the courts on a first come basis. In addition to these programs there were 300 participants in the industrial league softball program at Memorial Park, In 1975 there was a heavy emphasis placed on the maintenance of facilities. The increasing rate of vandalism at Memorial Park created extra work and additional expense to the Town. The Parks and Recreation Department is responsible for the maintenance of the following areas: Memorial Park; North, South and East Mansfield Commons; Town Hall grounds; Fisher Richardson House, Hartwell School; the grass area around the airport; John Berry School during the summer months; the entrance to Pine Needle Park; Library, and the Little League fields. Major projects accomplished in 1975 include the following: Construction of a Bocce Court at Memorial Park . Installation of 8 permanent aluminum benches at the North, South and East Mansfield Commons . Painting of the flagpoles and purchasing of new flags . Planting of flowers and bulbs in accordance with the Town's Beautification Program . Assisting in the maintenance of the following activities: Art Festival — Fireman's Field Day — Memorial Park Concert — Conservation Fair — Bicentennial activities The Recreation Commission has programmed as part of the Capital Improvement Program the following items: . Construction of a storage facility at Memorial Park . Bathhouse facilities at Maple Park . Initial construction of playground facilities on the Sweet Property in West Mansfield . Acquisition of the property north of Memorial Park to provide for expansion of that facility 11 The Recreation Commission feels that the best wayto enlighten people to the value of community recreation is through well-planned, well-suited, creative programming. The Recreation Commission, along with the Recreation Director and the Superintendent of Parks and Commons, feel they are on the right track, and that their methods with refinement and adjustment can considerably improve the quality of recreational programming in the Community:: This being the case, it will be our goal to establish more versatile programs in the future. The Industrial and Development Commission is charged with the responsibility for not only an orderly growth in the industrial phase in the community but also a balanced growth within the community. The Commission is particularly pleased this year on how many acres have been used or put aside by industrial, residential and conservation efforts. During 1975 assessments continued on the Town's industrial base. This included the completion of the following in the Cabot, Cabot and Forbes Industrial Park: Codex Corporation, U.S. Plywood, Carpenter Technology, and New England Controls, Inc. Construction was also initiated for the Fairfield Optical Plant, which will relocate its facilities from the corner of North Main Street and East Street to a location on Forbes Boulevard. Although sales to prospective industrial clients has declined during the nation's recession our developers are financially sound and both industrial parks will be maintained in their excellent condition. It is the developer's hope that 1976 will see a return to the normal business cycle and a quickening of the development pace. Of significant value is the water tank now "on line" in the Cabot, Cabot and Forbes Park. That coupled with the start of the program to improve water line capacity will provide a valuable asset to the Town. The following shows the growth in the industrial, tax base as taken from the Assessor's Records. Industrial Breakdown Assessed Value 1975-76 Tax Existing prior to 1970 $2,510,050 17% $ 192,771 Mansfield Industrial Park 3,700,950 25% 284,232 CC&F Industrial Park 8,712,875 58% 669,148 $14,923,875 $1,146,151 • 83% of industrial base added since 1970 • new industry since 1970 is 21.7% of total 1975 tax base CC&F Industrial Park represents 15.2% of the 1975 tax base The Industrial Development Financing Authority approved one application for financing construction and equipping of the Fairfield Optical Plant in 1975. The approval of the Fairfield Optical project makes Mansfield one of the most active municipalities of industrial revenue bonds within the Commonwealth. While there were no applications pending before the Authority at the end of 1975, there are several firms exploring the potential of financing plant con- struction through the Authority. Of particular concern will be the future improvements and development to the downtown area. The Town was fortunate to have had a comprehensive study of the downtown area conducted by the Department of City and Regional Planning, Harvard University, Graduate School of Design. This plan suggests one alternative as to how the downtown area could be developed. In order to develop a program of implementation, the Board of Selectmen and Planning Board jointly established the Downtown Development Committee, which will be responsible to make a detailed presentation and recommendation to the 1977 Town Meeting. It is an objective of the Committee to gather data on the downtown area and to prepare a plan which is attractive to development and is one that is capable of implementation. The Committee will also investigate sources of funding through private enterprise and Federal and State sources.

On May 11th, the day after the Bicentennial Parade, there was a modest little Airshow at the Airport. Surprisingly, it attracted about 7500 people. They were very patient, because they apparently expected more. We hope a good time was had by all. In September our Airport was host for the famous Airship America, the Goodyear Blimp, which covered the historic Boston College -Notre Dame football game at Schaeffer Stadium. Local residents were also treated to some sky -diving and parachuting exhibitions during the year. Among the more mundane but no less important occurences, major maintenance was performed on the administration building, reconstruction of 1000' of taxiway was completed, negotiations for new business to lease areas at the Airport continued, and efforts to implement parts of the Airport Master Plan continued—but at a slower pace due to the delay in the Interstate 495 highway project. The objective of the Airport Commission is to maintain the character of the Airport, while increasing its profitability and usefulness to the Town. There are no future plans to change the nature of this public transportation facility, that is, it will always be an airport capable of handling a limited number of small conventional piston -engine aircraft used for private pilot training, business and personal transportation, and small package air freight service. Commission members invite comments and questions at their meetings at the Airport on the third Monday monthly or at home or business. Mansfield Municipal Airport 42 VETERANS' SERVICES For the first time since 1948 there has been a major change in the method by which 18 year olds register with the Selective Service System, On March 29, 1975 Proclamation 4360 was signed by the President halting the continuous method of registration. Young men who reach the age of 18 will no longer be required to register with the Selective Service until further notice. The current G.I. Educational Program will no longer be available for personnel entering active military service after December 31, 1975. The final cutoff date for use of any educational benefit by any eligible veteran is set at December 31, 1987. The VA Home Loan Program continues for all veterans. The maximum VA Loan is 17,500. This is the amount the VA will guarantee to pay back a private lender who loans money to a qualified veteran for a home. Effective January 1, 1976 an 8% increase has been passed to all veterans and widow's of veterans receiving non -service connected pensions. The yearly income limit is changed to 3,300 for a veteran alone and to 4,500 for a veteran with a dependent. The Aid and Attendance allowance has been increased to $133 for veterans, and to $69 for widows. Aid and Attendance is an additional allowance given to those in Nursing Homes or in need of nursing care in the home. Veterans with a Disability Rating received a 10% increase in August 1, 1975. On May 7, 1975 the eligibility period for the Vietnam War benefits was terminated. The term Vietnam Era for the purpose of entitlement commenced on August 5, 1964 and ended on May 7, 1975. The benefits affected are Burial allowance, Disability, and Death pensions. These benefits are limited to veterans who served Honorably during a period Congress establishes as War Time. COUNCIL ON AGING The Council on Aging experienced rapid growth during the 1975 program year. The emphasis was placed on the expansion of a full -range of comprehensive services which were offered to the elderly of Mansfield. Transportation needs were met in 1975 with the acquisition of the "Senior Power" minibus. Retired program participants volunteered to drive the elderly to a wide variety of locations such as nursing homes, doctors offices, supermarkets, shopping sites, and recreational outings. People were transported to and from the Drop -In Center and hot lunches were conveyed in our, new vehicle. The severe need for transportation services was represented by a cumulative total of five thousand elderly who authorized the bus services during the past year. Reach -Out services were provided by the Council. Since many of our elderly were unable to come to the Center, we had to go to them through projects like Operation Lifeline. This highly successful project provided telephone Council on Aging Director Maureen Canner introduces Lawrence Lyons of the Rotary Club and Police Chief Lawrence D'Afileto the Council on Aging in honor of the First Anniversary of Operation Lifeline. The Rotary Club and Police Department are co-sponsors of this program. 43 reassurance to forty persons who lived alone. Refired seniors :..; manned the phones seven days a week. Any project registrant who failed to call was "followed up" by the volunteers. Family and then police continued the follow-up process which guaranteed personalized community` protection and concern. Nurse taking blood pressure at the weekly clinic held at the Council on Aging Health was an especial area of concern. Seniors had their blood pressures checked every week and were afforded the opportunity to discuss medical problems with the Community Health Nurse. Individual records were maintained on each person, and referrals were initiated where necessary. The special Health Fair offered in October initiated 500 screening tests for diabetes, glaucoma, cancer, respiratory disorders, anemia, and hypertension. Stress in the health program was placed on preventative care so that potential problems could be diagnosed and followed up. The Drop -In Center located at 184 North Main Street was a program unto itself. It remained open five days a week and over 500 people cumulatively per month drank coffee, chatted, or participated in program activities such as wood- working, macrame, needlepoint, painting, yoga, copper embossing, bingo, and trips to recreational sites. Problem -solving was a vital need that was filled by the Program Director who was available to answer personal;; questions and lead the elderly through the maze of medicare, .' medicaid, social security, unemployment insurance, housing, legal and other concerns. The future must be addressed. The number of elderly people in the community is ever expanding. The program must be permitted to continue to grow so that the increasing needs of the elderly can be met. The Town of Mansfield must be willing to expend the time and money to react to their 44 elderly citizens who are such a vital part of the community and have expended so much in making the community what it is today. The Hof Lunch Program expanded to full capacity and continued to offer services to shut-ins and regular participants. Meals were prepared at Mansfield High School and were served by volunteers. A complete hot meal for 50 cents was packaged and transported by minibus three days a week to those unable to attend and a regular three day per week 5o cents hot lunch program was held at the Congre- gational Church for those able to attend. The lunch program offered elderly a chance to mingle with friends and participate in sing -a -longs and discussions. This alternative to eating at home alone was well received and over 5,000 meals were served in the past year. Self -Help was a vital theme stressed by the Council. Each project was run by senior citizens who did things for them- selves. A strong example of the philosophy in action was the Senior Citizen Food Cooperative. Thirty elderly people formed this cooperative and bought various types of f6od at wholesale prices. The minibus was used to pick up the food and each member of the cooperative was assigned a certain task. Every other week members were sorting, counting, cashiering, or performing some other duty. These people were saving money and maintaining a nutritional diet. Nutrition, so vital to the elderly with their special dietary needs, was stressed by a volunteer registered dietician who assisted members of the program by suggesting proper foods and quantifies for people who were alone. The men who had lost their wives were most receptive to the classes offered. HOUSING AUTHORITY The Mansfield Housing Authority is the Local Public Housing Agency of the Town of Mansfield. The Authority is under the regulation of the Massachusetts Department of Community Affairs. The Authority consists of 5members. Four members are elected by the people of Mansfield 'and the fifth member is appointed by the Governor. The Authority has one part-time employee, the Executive Director. The Mansfield Housing Authority manages. 3 Public Housing Projects in the Town and a 4th Project which will be completed shortly after the first of the year. The Projects are as follows: • Project 200-1, the Veteran's Project, located on Eddy Street consists of 10 houses. Due to the need to supply adequate housing for larger families, the Authority, is presently converting the houses to 4 Bedroom Units. Two houses have already been converted with 2 more in the process of being completed. A playground area was installed at the Project during the year. There were 5 vacancies at the Project this year. • Project 707 is the Rental Assistance Programa The Authority has 4 apartments in the Town of Mansfield under this program. The residents of the Town are also eligible for the Federal Rental Assistance Program known as Section 8. In the smaller communities, such as Mansfield, this program is being administered by the Department of. Community Affairs not the Local Housing Authorities. • Project 667-1, Cedar Court, is an Elderly Housing Project. During the year the exterior of the Project was Social Center at Bicentennial Court, the 60 unit Housing for the Elderly Project repainted. The Authority also replaced all the refrigerators this year under a Modernization Program now being carried on. There were 4 vacancies at the Project during the year. Project 667-2 is a 60 Unit Elderly Housing Project. During the year this project has been under construction and the Authority has devoted a great deal of time monitoring the construction. The completion date was originally set for November, but due to unavoidable delays the Project will not be completed until after the first of the year. All 60 Units in this Project have been rented. Besides managing the existing Public Housing Programs, the Mansfield Housing Authority is also responsible for the initiation of programs to increase the supply of low -rent public housing. The Authority has formally applied for Chapter 705 Funds for low -rent housing. Due to the budgetary crisis in the State during the year, the Authority has not received any funding for this Project. The planning for adequate Public Housing is inter related' with the planning and growth of the Town of Mansfield. The Authority is aware that they must also take an active part in ' this phase of Town planning. For this reason a member of the Authority also serves on the Downtown Development's Committee. SELF HELP The year of 1975 was marked by many major achievements by the Board of Directors of Self Help and under the implementation of the Executive director, Frank R. Mazzaglia. These changes are of significant importance to the residents of Mansfield as some viable programs were instituted which are beneficial to all townspeople regardless of their particular income levels. There are 13 programs under the administration of Self Help, Inc. These programs include: Family Planning — A social service component which provides services to area men and women on a sliding scale to those who are over the poverty guidelines and free to those who are under those guidelines. Family Planning includes classes on sex education, conferences, and counseling on family planning. These services also include sterilization vasectomies and pap.'.` smear tests and are rendered in conjunction with the Brockton Hospital. • Project Headstart — Three hundred children from the Self Help region ranging from the ages of 3 to 5 and their families are served in 15 Headstart centers. The children are given an educational headstart before reaching the first grade in public school. • Transportation — Self Help maintains a fleet of vehicles not only for the transportation of children to their'.':. education programs, but is contracting with Home Care;'. to provide these services to the blind, elderly, and disabled in communities contracting for the program. 45 CONSERVATION COMMISSION The Mansfield Conservation Commission met bimonthly during 1975 for regular meetings. Also during these meetings the Commission held three hearings under Chapter 131 of the Massachusetts General Laws, the Wetland Protection Act. The Commission also investigated numerous alleged violations of this Act. The major project of the Conservation Commission during 1975 was the initiation of the reconstruction of Kingman Pond. This project is part of the Commission's program for the reconstruction of ponds along the Rumford River. The Commission anticpates the completion of this restoration' program in early 1976. Other accomplishments of the Commission during the year include: • Completion of the restoration of Fulton Pond and the construction of parking facilities. Additional land- scaping will be completed on an on-going basis over a several year period. • Initial acquisition of 16 acres of Sweet Property in West Mansfield. This property is acquired by the Commission but will be utilized in a joint effort with the Recreation Commission. The Commission anticipates the acquisition of the balance of the property at the 1976 Annual Town Meeting. • Discussion with the land owners on the improvement to the Cabot Pond. • Acquisition of additional lands within the Great Woods area. It should be noted that the plans of the Mansfield Water Division for the acquisition of additional well fields, particularly along the lower reaches of the Canoe River, enable the Town to acquire open space land in accordance with the Conservation Commission's land acquisition program for that watershed. While the land is not specifically under the Commission's jurisdiction, its acquisition does however meet our objectives. Backhoe dredging Rumford River as part of the Conservation Commission's Program for the rehabilitation and restoration of Kingman Pond Since the main function of the Commission is the protection of the natural resources of the Town, we again take this opportunity to ask your support with this task. Mansfield is developing at a fast rate. Its natural resources must be protected and areas within the Town should be conserved for present and future generations to enjoy. BICENTENNIAL COMMITTEE The 200th Anniversary year was ushered in with an Ecumenical Ceremony on the South Common on New.Year's Day. Introduced by Town Moderator, James Grady, were representatives of the local churches, as well as Selectmen and other Town officials. Church bells tolled from the Baptist Church. A Bicentennial Flag was presented by Pat Harring- ton of the Massachusetts Bicentennial and a certificate citing Mansfield as an official Bicentennial Community. Throughout the year we had a Bicentennial Exchange located at 267 North Main Street and manned by the Bicentennial Belles. May 10th brought us a magnificent Parade Day. The weather was warm and sunny. The Parade Committee was headed by Mildred Crowley and Norman Mahana, assisted 46 by James Gallo and many others. The Mansfield Lions Club manned refreshment booths for the benefit of the Bicentennial Committee. Several contributions were - received to defray the cost of the day. Thank you to our contributors as well as all the organizations and businesses that sponsored units in the parade. The major expenses of the 1 ,: day were for professional marching units. Many thanks to all "�,�.; the Parade Committee for a monumental well-done job!! 4' June 12th -14th found us being entertained at the High f School with a presentation produced by the Kingswood Players for the benefit of the Bicentennial Committee. "Sing Out, Sweet Land" was the title and the cast and staff were fantastic. It was a professional level. performance by many Mansfield singers and dancers. Thank you all. 11 r _ "'� , gJ w 61 July 4th found us at Maple Park for a Jaycee -Bicentennial Committee sponsored clambake complete with water competitions and many contests such as logrolling, horse- shoes, etc. Thank you for your efforts to make this a success. August 23rd, the actual date of incorporation was an all - day celebration. Morning brought Postal dignitaries to the South Common to issue the First Day Cover and postmark commemorating the 200th Anniversary. This project was co- ordinated by our own Postmaster, Edward Morse and Dick Kennedy. Militia men demonstrated muskets and cannon. At 1:00 P.M. the Marathon started and concluded later in the day with prizes awarded at the Common. Next on the agenda was a 400 lb. ice cream cake designed and sculptured by David Ingram of Mansfield, at Howard Johnson's. It was delivered in a large refrigerated truck and was served to about 1800 people. Paul Split co-ordinated races and competition for the children. After dark festivities continued at Memorial Park with a Rock concert for young and a dixie land band for all ages. September 13th and 14th found us under the "big -top" at Memorial Park for the Country Fair. Highlights of this included a grange type competition of fruits, vegetables, flower arrangements and handiwork under the supervision of Dot York. There was also a sewing table co-ordinated by Jane Barrett and Marge Porazzo, Grandma's Attic co- ordinated by Sue Akell, Souvenirs, etc. by Esther Goyea, a knitting table by Gerry Cabral, a penny candy table by Ann Marie Diamond, a plant table by Mary Lou Cotton and Colleen Rys, and food and beverages worked on by almost everyone the Committee knew and even a few friends made that day. The weather after a rainy night cooperated again. There was continuous entertainment with a German, an Italian, and Irish folk singers and a clown and a puppet show. To finish Saturday night, an hour long display of fire- works to be remembered for many years. Once again many hours were spent by volunteers to make this a success. Thank you all. September 27th brought us to the highlight of the social events—the Bicentennial Ball. This was co-ordinated with the Rotary Club under the direction of Jim Wills. It took place at Tennis 95 and featured the music of the band of Les and Larry Elgart and a patriotic theme for decorations. The Bicentennial Committee is grateful to the Rotary Club for the many hours of planning and setting up and cleaning up. October finds us in a resting stage. Still in process are • Booklet commemorating the year being worked on by many people including the P.M. Club all under the direction of Howard Fowler. • Restoration and narration of the movies of the 150th celebration as well as films of this parade. • The conclusion of the Bicentennial coin sale with the logo designed by William Faria and the slogan by Carole Andrews ( "Pride in our Past, Progress in our Future"). These were done in silver, pewter and bronze and sold in every Mansfield bank. • The Heritage Committee project of identifying and marking all significant older homes. We are grateful to all the members of the town family The Town Manager, the Selectmen, and all the Town Committees': and Boards for their cooperation this year. The unity in this past year contributed greatly to the smooth operation of each event. Next year, our Nation's Birthday will find this Committee still at work as the Town Moderator and Selectmen have requested. This past year has been an example of what can be done by Mansfield when it pulls together to accomplish one goal. Our - deepest thanks to all the people who have helped us to make this year possible. To all YE GOOD PEOPLE OF MANSFIELD —HAPPY 200th. You may indeed have "Pride in your Past" and we know there will be "Progress in the Future"! GREAT WOODS STUDY COMMITTEE The Great Woods Study Committee received a check, payable to the Town, for the amount of $28,735. This reimbursement represents the state's portion of acquisition costs of 100 acres of Conservation land purchased in March. This brings the total conserved land in the Great Woods to 159 acres. Our proposal for the 1975 acquisition was reduced drasti- cally by the time we reached the Town Meeting floor. In light of the economic conditions in April, our Committee voted to recommend the acquisition of only one parcel of 41 acres. This property includes historic "Taylor's Hill" and is an exceptionally fine addition to Mansfield's conserved area. The Committee's acquisition proposal for 1976 has also been reduced from $100,000 to a "belt -tightening" $35,000. This amount has received an A rating from the Capital Improvement Committee and will allow the acquisition -of land in a continuing conservation pattern. The concern and support of the people of Mansfield for three consecutive town meetings has been a rewarding: experience for the members of this Committee. The acquisition of Conservation land will be valued and enjoyed by the people of Mansfield and provides the essential balance between our residential and industrial growth. FISH ER-RICHARDSON HOUSE Fisher -Richardson House closed its 1975 season with a total of 913 visitors. The House opened for the Bicentennial Weekend in May, with 203 visitors. The new storage shed was open for public inspection at that time. Early in June all third grade school children visited the House. The Historical Society provided buses for their trans- portation. 48 Once again, the Garden Club of the New Century Club planted flowers in the gardens surrounding the House, and worked on the herb garden. Founders Day was observed in September with 54 guests. The Historical Society wishes to thank all the organizations in town for furnishing greeters on the days the House was open. Their cooperation is deeply appreciated. Mansfield School Committee; Mary Sheehan, Student Advisory Committee Representative, Mary -Lou Cotton, Rita T. Latham, James R. Hindman, School Committee Chairman, Richard S. Blandon, William S. Bruno, Dr. John P. Collins, Superintendent of Schools. MANSFIELD PUBLIC SCHOOLS School Committee The School Committee, elected by the citizens of Mans- field, has the final responsibility for establishing the educational policies of the school. Interested citizens may observe the school committee at work during its meetings held the first and third Mondays at the High School library. The Committee has adopted a policy over the past year of allowing citizen response to agenda items. The Committee has had some meetings devoted to citizen response and suggestions to school programs. A major problem contained in last year's report was the uncertainty of the building problem. A twenty-one (21) room addition to the Qualters Middle School was presented in June of 1975. Although this article failed, both the School Committee and the Municipal Building Committee presented an article on December 15th to the Town Meeting for an eight (8) room addition to the Qualters Middle School and four (4) room addition to the Robinson School. Although this program is minimal, the additional rooms will allow the school department to analyze the uncertainty of enrollments and study the new state aid formulas that will be forthcoming in the coming year. The School Committee, School Superintendent and Staff appreciate the efforts of the Mansfield citizens in providing the needed space for the youngsters.

Farinella Operations& Maintenance Supervisor Arthur C.Faria.'. Attendance Officer Edward A. Shney:.:: Superintendent of Schools Schools and its employees are part of an ever increasing. knowledge industry. For people who traditionally think in terms of comparing the function of schooling with "days of yore" forget the phenomenal growth of knowledge which doubles itself at least every decade at the present time and undoubtedly will increase in the future. Hence, the Superintendent of Schools must manage a process whereby updated knowledge is translated into school programs. One example of this knowledge update, is the infusion of the metric system into school programming. The knowledge update must be coupled with a continued study of improving student methods of acquiring knowledge. Obviously students can't be expected to be walking encyclopedias. Therefore, they must learn to appreciate the value of knowledge and how to acquire it when confronted with a problem. Teachers, therefore, must be more cognizant of various learning styles and assist students in this lifetime task of acquiring knowledge. Hence, another task of the Superintendent is to provide the management climate whereby the knowledge worker or the teacher can be most productive and his (her) talents used to a maximum. This climate is essential so that both teacher and student value knowledge for the solution of problems. Unfortunately, our societal problems are impacting the effectiveness of school programming. Will Durant has written about the demise of the family unit and its impact upon society. Another task of the school today is to cope effectively with the problems of broken family units and to provide a positive school learning atmosphere for youngsters who have a minimal motivation for learning. There is a constant challenge in providing effective school programs in an uncertain society and world There are many programs and situations that could be devised to better meet the challenges of society. However, the restraint in .the developmentof educational ". programming is fiscal. In an era of municipal bankruptcy, it is difficult to excite the general public about expanding education programming. However, it must be explained that the schools temper fiscal responsibility with educational programming. Not many people realize the extent of Federal grant writing in the Mansfield Public Schools. For example, the past year, the Mansfield Public Schools realized Federal grants amounting to $64,000 and participated through Project SPOKE in a Federal grant for $65,000. Few people realize the extent of State reimbursement related to the school operations. Even though Chapter 70 school aid was reduced last year, the Cherry Sheet listed Chapter 70 as $1,043,417.44. Transportation was listed as $137,389.72. Tuition and trans- portation as $9,960.00, Vocational reimbursement as $4,723.00. It is expected that Chapter 766 reimbursements will amount to approximately $240,000 (minus the up -front money). Aid for school construction was listed as $104,567.15. The above funds. result from the filing by the School Department of a report entitled "End of Year Pupil and Financial Report". Finally, during the school. year;,; the school department endeavors to watch carefully its spending and to effect economics wherever possible without effecting school program quality. At the end of fiscal 1975, the school department returned $55,220.16. With the above background in mind, the following school department reports are submitted which will give you a general flavor of the Mansfield School Program. First outdoor graduation in many years, June, 1975 Assistant Superintendent The task of the Assistant Superintendent for Program Management continues to be to improve the educational program. Primarily, this is done by improving the competence of the professional staff. Activities to do this included: Released -time workshops.. such as Food and Nutrition, Learning Stations, Cardboard Carpentry, Sensitivity, and the Croft Reading Workshop. . In -Service courses offered through Project SPOKE or conducted by the Assistant Superintendent. . Visitations to other schools this allows teachers to see programs in action. . Attendance at conferences sponsored by Project ERR and other educational organizations. . Use of consultants from the companies whose materials we use. 50 A further effort to improve the program has been to upgrade the instructional materials in use. New materials introduced include: I.M.S. mathematics at the Park Row School (supplementary). Rand McNally spelling program at Spaulding, Paine and John Berry Schools. . 1975 mathematics texts in all primary schools Curriculum review was begun in the areas of reading and mathematics. Study committees were formed in the Summer of 1975. Reports of findings and recommendations have been issued by both groups. Social studies, science, and language arts committees have now been formed. Members of our staff have diligently sought federal funds for specific supplemental programs. Project IMPACT and Project EARLY BIRD have been funded with such state - federal monies. A special Title II grant was awarded to the Qualters Middle School for the development of a local history course. During the late fifties and continuing into the sixties, many changes occurred in the schools of the nation. Mansfield accepted some of these changes. The time has now come to review and reflect on such matters! Therefore, the current need is to examine our educational program to determine if if we indeed are including those areas that are relevant. Military Careers Day at Mansfield High School, November 12, 1975 Mansfield High School Mansfield High School strives to continue its philosophy of meeting the curriculum needs of all its students through a free elective system. 1975-76 has seen our first venture of off -campus instruction in association with fellow service institutions (Sturdy Hospital), Bridgewater State College, Stonehill College, S.E. Regional Vocational School. This was done specifically through the expansion of instruction for Biology II (Nursing) through experienced specialists at the above institutions. Mansfield High School is grateful for the cooperation and exposure for our students in these off -campus facilities. The technical department expanded the number of students in the electrical courses by remodeling a large room to accommodate our new equipment in this area. Hopefully we will make more technical sections available with personnel growth for that department in 1976-77. Increased enrollments and increased career needs dictate further expansion in this area. We are fortunate to have a maintenance staff capable of renovations as our needs grow. Our expansion in the Math Department included a wide spectrum of offerings for various ability growth: 1. Continued two year sequence in Algebra I; 2. A follow- up course to the above two year program with plane geometry for terminal math students; 3. A 4th year acceleration in pre -calculus in Grade 11; 4., A 5th year (full year of calculus 76-77; for those students able to complete five years of math; 5. A two year individualized course in general math. The business education department introduced professional typing in addition to its transcription to include medical, legal. and executive skills. This department continues its individualized case -study approach to all professional business subjects. 51 In compliance with State Chapter 622 of equal opportunity, the High School has made all courses co-educational particularly in those areas formerly having designations for girls and boys. This took the form of re -naming courses in home economics and the elective courses in physical education. Our maintenance and future growth of the program will necessitate re-claiming the rooms now occupied by the eighth grade in the High School. We are confident that the community will continue to make the right decision in the best interest of young people. Harold L. Qualters Middle School The Middle School continues to maintain a level of performance envied by many professionals in surrounding communities as well as distant ones. The ability of the staff and students to cope with an over -taxed facility has been more than commendable. Five staff members and 135 students are housed at the high school and an additional seven other staff members are floating in the main building. Needless to say, one word could sum up the middle school situation — HELP! For the past two years Mansfield High School has acted as a safety valve for middle school population problems. With approximately 180 graduating this year and an eighth grade with 290 students, the high school may have to end its hospitality or seriously curtail its programs. At this time the shadow of double sessions hangs over the middle school. In spite of the student enrollment problems, the middle school master schedule was the best ever. All nine inter- disciplinary teams had built in common planning time every third day. Teams that did not cross grade lines were back to back in each individual discipline. The schedule was spread over a six day rotation allowing the greatest flexibility ever and in-house articulation. The students lost their activity program two years ago but after school programs in chorus, speech and drama, band, interscholastic sports, and intramurals are very popular and oversubscribed. Soccer was added to this year's intramural program replacing flag football by popular demand. Every middle school student has five basic subjects every day of the school year. Reading, Language Arts, Mathematics, Science and Social Studies are scheduled in fifty-four minute blocks of time each day giving the greatest concentration of time and energy to basic skills. It is very doubtful that any middle School in southeastern Massa- chusetts spends the time and energy on the cognitive and affective areas of learning in the five basic subject areas as the Harold L. Qualters Middle School. The specialists will never receive their just due as long as overcrowding persists. As this report is being written, the special town meeting for school expansion is about a week away. Should the community vote favorably for an eight -room addition to the current middle school only four teachers will remain as floaters next year. Maybe this will give everyone an indi- cation as to the severity of the problem. The first middle school parent organization was established this year. The group is known as the Qualters Middle School Key Council. Its primary purpose is informational in nature, to tell the middle school story and gain feedback for school use. The students, faculty and administration of the Harold L. Qualters Middle School would like to thank the community for their past support and remind all concerned citizens we need — HELP! Everett W. Robinson School The largest class (294) in the 3 -year existence of the building is currently enrolled at the Kindergarten. When the facility was first opened in 1973, it was expected enrollment would be approximately 250. With 20 Transitional -1 students housed all day in what was to be an all-purpose room, this building is more than filled to capacity. A new Head Kindergarten Teacher, Ms. Dana Hahn, was W appointed at the start of the year replacing Ms. Rene ells who married and is now living in Wales. Ms. Hahn has been a member of the Kindergarten teaching staff since the opening of the building. New staff at the Kindergarten include Ms. Jean Wall, full- time teacher, Ms. Ann -Marie Rodriques, half-time teacher, Ms. Gail Berteletti, teacher aide, and Ms. Christine Pucci, special resources aide. Ms. Wall and Ms. Berteletti are Mansfield residents, while Ms. Pucci and Ms. Rodriques both student taught in the Kindergarten last year. For the first time in memory, there are no staff changes at the regular Rh and 5th grade levels. The only new teaching staff members are Ms. Mary Turner, Art Teacher, and Ms. Elizabeth Thorpe, part-time Music Teacher. M s. Turner is a Mansfield resident. Overcrowding continues to be a concern at 4th and 5th grade levels. Two Special Education Teachers share one classroom. Two Learning Disabilities Teachers share one very small conference room, while the School Adjustment: Counselor is housed in what used to be a custodian's closet: Music classes are conducted in the cafeteria. Curriculum nights were held in October at both the Kindergarten and 4th and 5th grade levels. Both programs were very well attended. Parent -conferences were conducted November 18 and 19 at both buildings, with good attendance. For the first time, a girls' intramural sports program comparable to the boys' program, is being offered after school for 4th and 5th graders. Sports being offered include field hockey, kickball, volleyball, basketball, and gymnastics. Mr. Curtis Parker continues to conduct the boys' program as he has done so well for several years, while Ms. Arlene Macaione, Ms. Patricia Stout, and Mr. Joseph Wappel share the responsibility for the girls' program. A large number of youngsters are participating in both boys' and girls' programs. A large number of enthusiastic fifth grade boys and girls recently began participating in musical instruction under the direction of Mr. James Gallo, High School Band Director. Many of these same youngsters will, in the not too distant future, be participating in the highly successful Mansfield High School Band. Roland Green and Park Row Schools Two staff changes took place at the Roland Green School commencing in September 1975. Miss Deborah Hinchey was appointed to teach Grade 1 as an additional class was needed, and Mrs. Sally Robinson replaced Miss Penelope Brown in the area of Learning Disabilities. Miss Brown transferred to the Park Row School and Mrs. Robinson serves on a part- time basis. A highlight of the school year was a "Crazy Hat Day". Hornet Band Color Guard, Fall, 1975 52 The speech categories ranged from Functional Articulation, Hearing Loss, Stuttering, Delayed Speech and Language, Cleft Palate, and Cerebral Palsy. Classes were also held on Corrective Swallowing. Throughout the school year conferences were held with parents who were given suggestions and materials to help and encourage the child's speech practice at home. One of the most important phases in the life of a growing child is the use of proper speech and language. Department of Physical Education and Athletics The 1975-76 school year marks a year of growth and promise. An elective program for grades eleven and twelve has been instituted, and has been well received by the students. Fourth and fifth grade intramurals has been added and is being very well received. The youngsters at Park Row school have been receiving physical education three thirty minute periods each week in comparison to the two offered other primary grade youngsters. This has been due to pilot program in which the physical educationgspecialist provides class room teachers with activity outlines. They in turn use these to present follow up lessons. This program appears to be working quite well. The high school physical education staff continues to offer in-service training to prospective teachers by working with student teachers from nearby colleges. The department has also engaged in a cooperative venture with Northeastern University and their Student Co-op Program. As a result several university physical education majors will be used in the high school physical education program this year as intern teachers and intramural supervisors. Proposals are being prepared to include physical education for kindergarten children and to increase the time allotted to physical education at all levels in order that Mansfield can meet minimum state requirements. The athletic program can be considered quite successful, while pointing to excellent seasons this past spring in Boys' Track, Girls' Track, Boys' Tennis and Girls' Softball, all of which had winning seasons. The Boys' Tennis team won the Hockomock League Championship, while Boys' Track team won the J.J. Kelley Relays. This fall found the Cross Country team having its best season ever, with a 7-6 record and finishing third in the Hockomock League meet. The football team provided us with an extremely exciting season with a 4- 5-1 season. Two of the loses were by one point, one was by two points and one was lost in the last four seconds. Highlights include a revitalized new spirit, a win over Oliver Ames and against Foxboro on Thanksgiving Day. The Girls' Field Hockey team had a very creditable season with six wins and prospects look very good for next season. Added to the program this year was a student -athletic trainer program under the able direction of Mr. Gerard Kelley, Assistant Football Coach. Three students, two boys and a girl, satisfactorily completed the Cramer Products Student Athletic Trainer Course. Subsequently, they were able to assist in the taping and injury care of boy and girl athletes. A major step was taken when the entire coaching staff completed the Coaches Handbook, which was subsequently accepted by the School Committee. Once again the department wishes to express its appreciation and gratitude to the administration, school committee and community for its cooperation and support. 53 Physical Education at the Robinson School Instructional Media Program During the past year the following activities have taken place in the Instructional Media Department: A continuously updated photographic display of school activities is located in the High School front corridor. This display is produced by students taking the Instructional Media Class. • High School and Middle School classes are now using the Media Production Center for class projects, producing dry mounted and laminated collages, overhead trans- parencies, slides, audio tapes, video tapes, etc. There has been a great increase in the use of video taping for various class projects and extra curricular activities:'. • There is continuing program development on:'the computerized audio visual equipment inventory. • Instructional Media Department and Art Department have teamed to produce units in silk screening, offset printing, and photography. • The Media Department has expanded offset printing services, not only within the school system, but also for such groups as: Band Parents Bicentennial Committee Parents and Friends Club Recreation Commission Board of Health Each child and staff member made their favorite "Crazy Hat" and a parade through the school was held. It was truly a fun day for all. The Park Row School staff changes are as follows: Mrs. Georgette Boucai resigned, due to pregnancy and was replaced by Miss Penelope Brown; Miss Barbara Britton replaced Miss Deborah Hinchey as an Instructional Aide; Mrs. Ethel Carl assumed the duties of Unit Leader replacing Miss Teresa Wappel, who became the I.M.S. coordinator. Additional staff members are: Mrs. Alicia O'Malley, School Nurse, housed at Park Row; the Title I staff is housed at Park Row School with Mrs. Barbara Johnson, Director, and Aides Mrs. Sandra Wynn, Miss Ann Marie Diamond and Mrs. Barbara Riccio. Mrs. Carol Rothenstein serves as Counselor on a part-time basis. Many educational and social activities were experienced by the children during the school year. A highlight was "Balloon Day" in which the children and staff released balloons with return address cards attached. The finders returned letters and cards from surrounding towns. I wish to express my appreciation, and also, in behalf of the staff, for the many parent volunteers and the Parent Advisory Council of the Park Row School who give so freely of their time in assisting staff and students in varied capacities. Students at the Robinson School Spaulding School Spaulding School is a four -room elementary building housing four self-contained classrooms — one first grade; two second grades, and one third grade. During the year the exterior of Spaulding School was painted and storm windows were installed. New lighting was also installed in each of the. classrooms. The Resource Center has continued to operate. under the direction of the P.M. Division of the New Century Club. Invaluable service has been provided by parent: volunteers working within the building. John H. Berry School The John H. Berry School is located in West Mansfield. It is. a three-room neighborhood school housing grades 1, 2 and 3.. It has also a multi-purpose auditorium. The Creative Resource Center is again being conducted by the P.M. Division of the New Century Club. Volunteers work with small groups of pupils each afternoon. 54 The Recreation Commission used the playground and some school facilities during the summer, for children in the West Mansfield area. During the school year, Cub Scouts use the auditorium one evening each week. Paine School Paine School houses three classrooms, one first grade, a transitional second, and a second grade. It also provides headquarters for four specialists: a Special Education teacher, Speech teacher, Music Director and K-3 School Adjustment Counselor. The fall season opened to a standing -room -only crowd as the entire student body presented a Bicentennial Play entitled "The Spirit of '76". A crafts fair of children -made items were on exhibit in the hall. Guests were given samples of school -made peanut butter, apple sauce and lemon lollipops upon entering the building. Two student teachers from Stonehill College assisted in this project. Our goals are to develop each child's unique talents and capabilities to the fullest extent possible and to encourage the attitude that the individual's own efforts are paramount in realizing his potentiality. With our small neighborhood school facilities and our enthusiastic parents group, we are attaining these goals. Special Education Program Children who have special needs to the extent that they cannot progress effectively in the typical classroom situation are found in every school system. Some children can achieve better in self-contained programs with others of similar needs. Others benefit greatly by special adjustments for them in the regular classroom—with or without the help of specialists. A few who are homebound for considerable lengths of time may need home instruction. The needs of these youngsters must be met with special planning and usually with the help of specialists. The Special Education Department in Mansfield recognizes the basic human right that every child must have his or her opportunity for education—to achieve self - realization, to develop his or her capabilities, to make his or her contribution to society, and to receive the rewards of his or her accomplishments. This department is endowed with a gifted staff of resource people and specialists who are meeting the diversified needs of the students they serve. The 453 young people receiving special education services is about one hundred more than last year. In addition, more youngsters are receiving CORE evaluations, the assessment of a child's special needs for which an individual plan is designed under legislation known as Chapter 766, so that we can estimate that about 500 students will be serviced during the 1976-1977 school year. Resource people have successfully utilized the techniques and materials to diagnose a child's strengths and weaknesses and to develop and implement educational plans which include appropriate instructional and socialization ex- periences. The Special Education Department will continue to provide a flexible and uniform system of services based on the differential needs of our youngsters. Speech Program During the month of September, diagnostic evaluations were completed on over 100 students. Out of this number 88 were selected to receive speech services in grades Kindergarten through 12. # Health Services The Chapter 766 CORE Evaluation Program for special needs children has greatly expanded the role and responsi- bilities of the School Nurse. In all, 124 children were evaluated. Tuberculin skin tests were given to pupils K-12, new rs enrollees and school personnel, including 595 pupils and 108 t adults. At twelve pre-school registrations, kindergarten students were screened. Examinations included medical history, dental and speech evaluation, vision and hearing testing, urinalysis and psychological testing. Tetanus -diphtheria boosters were given to 142 pupils in grade 10. Routine physical examinations for grades K through 4, 7 and 10 and athletes were completed, totalling 1,702 students. These examinations were administered by Anthony W. Gasson, M.D., School Physician. Examinations for pediculosis have been carried out in all schools, and frequent examinations were done in classes where problems had existed. 0 During the year a total of 6,740 firstpid treatments were recorded. Numerous conferences with parents, teachers and counselors were held with regard to specific health problems. Educational films were shown and instructional classes in health education were given in various grades. 1975 Dental Program Eleven pre-school clinics were held with approximately 252 children being seen. Mothers were instructed in the importance of early dental care, the importance of diet with the elimination of foods high in sugar as snack foods, proper toothbrushing technique, and the danger of nursing bottle mouth to nursing children. A plaque test was given to each child, and a dental chart made so that a record of decay, tooth eruption, restorative care and problems of occlusion may be kept. A total of 1,960 children were examined with 1,453 receiving prophylaxis and flouride, seventy received prophylasix only, and 954 children were referred to the dentist for restorative care. Programs attended for continued educational improve- ment included two Public Health and School Dental Hygienist Workshops, one day attendance at the State Dental Convention in Boston, and five district meetings of the South- eastern District of M.D.H.A. As part of an In -Service program a Teacher's Workshop was held by the representative of the R.I. Dairy Council, Miss Rachel Jones. Miss Jones and Brita E. Cronin, R.D.H., presented workable programs in inspiring children to become more interested in the importance of nutrition, both in areas of growth, general health, and dental health. A party such as has been presented to the third grades for the past several years was prepared by Miss Cronin and presented to show that good food can be fun and substituted for the many poor choices that are usually included on most holiday and party occasions. A SPOKE course was also completed. This course dealt with recognizing children with learning difficulties and inclusion of all methods of using the different senses, olfactory, gustatory, auditory, visual, and tactile in teaching children. Learning centers to be used in the classroom using all these methods were completed. It was a busy year with many new approaches to motivating the children in better oral hygiene habits tried and successfully completed. It was with regret that the resignation of Mrs. Jean Weaver, assisting hygienist, was accepted. Food Services Program The Mansfield Public Schools Lunch Program continues to provide nutritious food and service for the students of Mans- field. With rising costs, the cafeteria program is still able to provide well-balanced meals to 2,000 students daily without an increase in the cost of the meal. The free and reduced price meal has been expanded so as to reach all levels. The program for the elderly has been accepted with much success, serving fifty elderly citizens three times a week. Participation in the food service program has grown steadily. The Food Service Program is a credit to the resourceful- ness of the cafeteria workers and local educational officials who see that the children benefit from this program.
