Sometimes the workload got too r our goals frequently needed re-thinking,but Mans - i be proud that so much progress was made through =rmined effort of its Town employees, boards, and lees. The Town Meetings approved several major which occupied our attention and efforts, making )orts on "1974 Highlights" (following page) more )us than in an average year. les those activities, Board projects have included: the initiation of study on the "Community School concept" with the School Committee, Capital Improvement Program Committee, and Building Committee; also analysis of the Town's youth services with the assistance of a study commit- tee. Regional plans began with Wrentham, Plainville, North Attleboro, Foxboro, and Attleboro to protect the Bungay Watershed, and the Board joined with this town's Sewer Study Committee to generate action on tri -town sewerage facilities. This Annual Report is prepared by the boards and de- partments heads who can best describe their annual ac- tivities, analyze the Town's financial status, or report on our future municipal needs. For the past several years, the Mans- field Annual Reports had been cited for their award- winning quality, and the boards and departments have once again presented their detailed reports with the same spirit and dedication which deserves equal recognition. With this combination of ideas and efforts, the Board of Selectmen optimistically looks forward to continued Town progress. Finally, the Board of Selectmen looks forward to a pro- gressive year in 1975... HAPPY 200th, MANSFIELD!!! HIGHLIGHTS OF 1974 The year was particularly busy for major town projects approved for funding by the 1974 Annual Town Meeting and the Special Town Meeting. For quick review, these major items are highlighted as follows: General Government The tax rate reduction, both in the "six-month tax bill" and the FY74-75 rate, again indicated our stable financial condition, greatly helped by new tax incomes from industrial and commercial development. The 1974 Annual Town Meeting was able to "keep score" of the tax impact of various programs and projects as they were voted, and were benefit- ted with fairly exact information about State receipts, tax assessments, and other grants and funds. This improvement is one advantage of the July 1 - June 30 fiscal year — Town Meeting takes all actions on budget matters before the budget year begins. The Capital Improvement Program Committee main- tained its detailed research on the Town's needs for major improvements. Special priority was given to t to which the Town devoted major appropria ing the South Main Street water main and well construction.

Unfortunately, no other feasible sites have found to date in the other major watersheds in Town. inservation A major breakthrough for conservation land acquisition Regional Sewerage The Mansfield Board of Selectmen initiated conferences with Foxboro, Norton, and State officials to refocus local priority on the need for regional sewage treatment. No other project has more critical long-range impact on Mansfield's future than this treatment alternative. Mansfield's plant is inadequately equipped and sized to handle future sewer demands. To Mansfield, the regional plant is a necessity, and to Foxboro and Norton it represents a great opportunity for guaranteed sewage treatment when their residents want a sanitary sewer system. The State has offered 90 percent State and Federal funding for the treat- ment plant and the regional interceptor if the three towns can agree on an acceptable regional arrangement. A concen- trated three-month effort has been initiated so that this matter can be presented to the Town at the 1975 Annual Town Meeting. 11 Electric Light Our electric utility department activated the new Gilbert Street power substation in late April and both 23,000 KV feeders were constructed from the substation to the High Street substation where the power is redistributed on local circuits. The station enables the Town to purchase power cheaper. Under the existing R-8 rates, the Town would have paid 4.8 percent more for power from the Gilbert Street substation than at the old 23,000 KV equipment on High Street, using March 1974 as a test month (represents more than $10,500 savings for that month). The Light Depart- ment fund was strained to its maximum in 1974 after NEPCO was granted a wholesale rate increase in May by the Federal Power Commission. The Town adopted new rates effective January 1, 1975, after an in-depth "rate study and cost -of -service anaylsis" by qualified engineering consul- tants. These rates are adequate until the F.P.C. acts on NEPCO's proposed R-9 rate change, with F.P.C. action ex- pected by early summer.

SOUTHEASTERN REGIONAL PLANNING AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT The Southeastern Regional Planning and Economic De- velopment District (SRPEDD) is one of the State's thirteen regional planning agencies, and Mansfield is one of the District's thirty municipalities. Formed in accordance with Chapter 40B of the Massachusetts General Laws, the District enables Mansfield to plan jointly with its neighbors for the purpose of promoting with the greatest efficiency and economy the coordinated and orderly development of the area and the general welfare and prosperity of our citizens. Mansfield provided $1,490.85 of the District's 1973 budget of $515,000. In return, we received 23 manhours of assistance, thus saving the town approximately $230. The principal projects were: the extension of Route other traffic improvements as well as efforts to pr Bungay River Watershed and to meld recreation servation concerns into the town's Comprehensive I Program. In addition, the Town benefited fi District's areawide work on such topics as transp housing, and economic development. Mansfield will be similarly benefited in 1975.

These facilities are most adequate and give the Department the capability of meeting the needs of a growing community. The facilities include offices for the Chief and Sergeants, secretarial area, reception area, interrogation rooms and detention rooms which include four male cells, two female cells, and one juvenile detention area. There is a policemen's ready room and locker area in the basement and an area has been pro- vided for a pistol range. The police force consists of the Chief, four Sergeants, and eleven patrolmen. Due to the retirement of one sergeant another examination will be held and one of the present patrolmen will be chosen to fill the vacant position. The 1974 Town Meeting approved the position of two addi- tional patrolmen, to be hired in April, 1975. During 1974 Auxiliary Police assisted the department by working some of the open shifts while the full were attending police recruit training school. School Crossing Guards have greatly assisted the safety of our children crossing the roadway to and from school. The 1974 Town Meeting approved the purc automatic filing system, which will be installed is 1975. This will greatly assist the Department in in the record system. Also purchased in 1974 we replacement cruisers. In accordance with the prof lished by the Capital Improvement Program Corr cruisers will be replaced on an annual basis. The L envisions the purchase of an additional police cr near future.

BUILDING AND HOUSING CODE COMMITTEE The Building and Housing Code Committee met infre- quently during 1974 due to our inability to make revisions to the existing Building Code since the Uniform State Building Code will become effective January 1, 1975. The Committee submitted an article to the Annual Town Meeting for adop- tion of a revised B.O.C.A. Code, which would have been in effect from July 1, 1974, to December 31, 1974. This article was postponed indefinitely. Copies of the State Building Code, which supercedes all building codes in every city and town of the Commonwealth, are available for study in the office of the Building Inspector. We are currently reviewing the State Building Code to find any changes which should be brought to the attention of local builders. After much study and research by our Committee and review by the Town Manager, Board of Selectmen, Light Department Director, and Wiring Inspector, a new up- dated Wiring Fee` Schedule was adopted by the Board of Selectmen. ZONING BOARD OF APPEALS The Zoning Board of Appeals held a total of twenty meet- ings during 1974. Thirty-eight applications were considered by the Board. Two applications were withdrawn before the hearings were held. Three were withdrawn because of tech- nicalities and were then resubmitted at a later time. One applicant failed to appear for a scheduled hearing thereby defaulting the petition. Another application was withdrawn after the hearing, but before a decision was rendered. Two hearings were held to amend conditions on earlier decisions made by the Board. Both petitions were amended as requested. One hearing was held to ratify and confirm a special permit granted by the Board for an apartment com- plex on Oakland Street.

The Board of Health is recom- mending continued support of this worth -while agency for 1975. The Board has also supported the efforts of the "Op- eration Medic" group formed by the Board of Selectmen in an effort to attract medical personnel to Mansfield. An "Operation Medic" information booklet, listing all medical services available in Mansfield is in the works and will be distributed via a town -wide mailing. The cost of this booklet will be funded by the Board of Health. In October the Metropolitan District sued a directive prohibiting 'communiCommission is - ties within the M.D.C. sewage district from accepting septic tank and cesspool cleanings from surrounding communities that were not members of the district. Subsequently, the Board of Health and the Town Manager met` with the M.D.C. in Boston, who granted a variance to Mansfield, allowing us to continue to dispose these wastes at M.D.C. facilities.

South Main Street water project as taken at historic South This past year eight valves were repaired and three were replaced. A total of 117 water leaks were repaired, and 143 meters were installed. The Water Division installed 35 new services and replaced 4 hydrants. The total precipitation recorded in 1974 was 43.21 inches. There were 646,641,900 gallons of water pumped in comparison to 669,492,800 in 1973. A major water ban was in effect during the summer months. This caused inconvenience to both homeowners and industrial users; however, the highest commendation is due to the townspeople of Mansfield for their realization of the seriousness of the situation and their cooperation in participating wholeheartedly in conserving our water. SEWER DIVISION In 1974 the Water Pollution Abatement Facility effectively treated approximately 373 million gallons of wastewater at an average daily flow rate of one million gallons per day. The efficiency for removal of pollutants was decreased from last year slightly due to increased plant loadings, infil- tration, and the isolation of two process control aeration tanks (for holding purposes). This left the extended aeration system at half its design capabilities. The major problem at the facility continues to be the excessive production of waste -activated sludge. Because of inadequate drying weather, sludge cannot be dewatered naturally on the sludge drying beds; it has been necessary to isolate about fifty per- cent of the total load for sludge storage. A series of trenches to dispose of a portion of the waste -activated sludge in order to protect the receiving stream was constructed. Seven tons of chlorine were used for disinfecting purposes this past year. In March the chlorination facility was de- stroyed by fire, probably caused by defective wiring in the control panel. Two chlorinators, a weighing scale,`a plunger sludge pump, and heaters were the major pieces of equip- ment lost. Reconstruction began late in December. After the fire new wiring was installed for the headworks control sta- tions to eliminate the existing fire hazards. In late December repairs were started on the primary sedimentation tanks and the comminutor to permit effective operation of the aux- iliary trickling filter. The siphon system in the dosing tank was also rebuilt. 38 39 The Light Department installed approximately 2,500 feet of Hendrix Cable to minimize the power outages occurring at the facility due to high winds and storms. A contract was awarded to the Penetryn System Company in July, 1974, for smoke -testing of a total of 3800 feet of the sewer system for sources of groundwater infiltration. A sur- vey was done to determine which "mini -systems" of the Town had the greatest amount of infiltration. This was done by measuring the flow both during the day and the night- time hours, and by using a TV camera to check the condition of the lines. The sealing out of groundwater infiltration on a portion of Pratt Street was done (242 feet of 8 -inch line), and on Chilson Avenue 356 feet of 8 -inch pipe was replaced. The Chilson Avenue work, which included replacement of 17 new house laterals, reduced infiltration by an estimated 75,000 gallons of water per 24-hour period. In 1975, we expect to continue sealing the most faulty mini -systems within the Town. Since the winter of 1972, we have reduced the amount of infiltration significantly; the sewerage treat- ment plant now shows an average flow of only one million gallons per day.

SANITARY LANDFILL In 1973 an operation plan for the Sanitary Landfill site was prepared and approved by the Massachusetts Depart- ment of Public Health. This plan estimated that the existing landfill site had a capacity of 265,000 cubic yards of refuse. In 1974 an estimated 70,000 cubic yards of refuse were deposited at the landfill site. This represents a 30 percent use of the present site and the estimated useful life of the site is between two and three years, depending upon the rate of refuse deposited. The landfill operation has received no violations from the State and the town has cleaned up all previous infractions. In 1974 the Annual Town Meeting voted to acquire land adjacent to the existing landfill site for expansion. The Capi- tal Improvement Committee has recommended that monies be appropriated in 1975 for the preparation of a develop- ment plan for this additional land area. Monies will be re- quested in future years for the development of the property. As part of the development plan for the existing site pre- pared in 1973, a recommendation was made that the site be used for recreational purposes in 1980. The future use of this property will depend upon the close coordination be- tween various town boards, in order that the recreational goal can be met. REGIONAL SEWAGE TREATMENT The need for expansion of the Mansfield Wastewater Treatment Facility has been well documented, and the Mas- sachusetts Water Pollution Control Commission will not permit the Town of Mansfield to expand its present plant. Instead, the requirement has been that Mansfield join with the towns of Foxborough and Norton to form a three -town regional water pollution abatement district. Problems have been encountered during the past year in trying to reach an agreement by the State and neighboring towns. Meetings were attended by Mansfield officials in June and July of 1974 40 Bulldozer in operation at the Sanitary Landfil regarding what steps the three towns had to take in or, form the district. A meeting was held in September with officials fro:. State and representatives from all three towns. Dii McMahon reviewed the State's position and possible alt tives for the area. Because of the amended EPA regula there would be a special emphasis on the regional treat of sewage. If the three towns could form some agree and become a district, then Federal and State aid wou available in reimbursements for the construction of ional plant in the town of Norton with interceptors Foxborough and Mansfield.

The purpose of the review policy is to provide an oppor- tunity for this group of veterans to become eligible for medi- cal treatment. The Veterans Administration has 44 Drug Treatment Centers, but cannot treat veterans with Dishonorable Dis- charges. COUNCIL ON AGING The Council on Aging offers a multi -faceted program that reaches out to serve over nine hundred (900) elderly people in Mansfield. The whole concept of the program reflects the philosophy that a community must care for its people who have contributed many years of their lives to its develop- ment. The focal point of the program is the new Drop -In Center, located at 184 No. Main Street. This is the place where friends sit and chat with each other and enjoy many of the programs offered by the Council. The Council was fortunate enough to acquire the new Center during this past year which makes it possible to create Volunteer work crews labored through several weekends to complete refreshment stand at Memorial Park Senior Citizens enjoyed a field trip to Logan International Airport in Boston. 44 f 45 Volunteer drivers Johnna Gill, and Director Maureen Canner (center) and Antonio Coelho with the mini -bus purchased for the Counsel on Aging in 1974. a warm and cozy atmosphere for our elderly. Our "home away from home" offers a sitting room, reading room, kitchen and dining room, office, and a room for arts and crafts. An average of thirty to forty people utilize the Center on a daily basis. Many of these people participate in the various classes held at the Center. Woodworking, Crewel Work, and Yoga are among the choices available. A major emphasis of the program is preventative health care. Weekly visits to the Center are made by the Community Health Nurse. An increasing number of Seniors are taking advantage of this two hour visit by the Nurse. During this time, they may have their blood pressure taken, discuss diets and medications, and be referred to a Doctor. Various Clinics as well as courses in Nutrition have been held and more are planned for the future. Social Services are of special importance to people who are no longer in the mainstream of life. In response to this, several programs have been established. "Operation Lifeline" is a service offered to those Seniors who live alone and have the fear that should they become ill, no one would ever know. Special telephones, paid for by the Rotary Club and manned by volunteers, have been installed at the Center. Approximately thirty-five people call ` into the Drop -In Center each day to let the volunteer know all is well. If an emergency situation should arise, the Police will follow through. Monthly meetings are held at the Center for the "People Alone Exchange." Consisting of Widows, Widowers, and others who are alone, the group discusses common problems and needs of the individual alone. Dinner Clubs as well as community involvement are some of the steps taken to ease' the problems. Several Seniors completed an eighteen hour training program and are now certified tutors working with young children in the Mansfield Schools. They are working to improve the reading skills of the children and are part of the ``Right to Read" Program. The success of the Hot Lunch Program, where wholesome lunches are served to our Seniors at fifty cents per meal, has necessitated its expansion to three days a week. Approxi- mately fifty to sixty people per day have been taking advan- tage of this program. Along with the nutritional, program, the chance to get together and mingle during the dinner hour is a very important aspec on subjects such as Social Security, Medicare, Stamps, as well as entertaining programs often dinner. Meals on Wheels are delivered to the Shut -Ins. Many of Mansfield's older people found theins, lated for days because of lack of transportation. T acquired mini -bus has eliminated this problem. Itis five days a week to take people to the Drop -In Ce Hot Lunch Program, Shopping, and Doctor appoi General Information and Referral Services cover as legal matters, medical problems, insurance and needs, are offered on an ongoing basis through t tance of the Executive Director and various commu: ple. Monthly trips to various areas of interest as well as Dances, Sing -a -longs and Fairs provide the Senior with a variety of recreational activities. The program would never be a success were it Mansfield's Community which has produced the number of volunteers who have given many hours time. Their hard work is evidence of their devotion elderly!

There is no doubt that we are one of the most fortunate towns in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts to experience the growth in our industrial base. Our two industrial de- velopers continue to bring national and well known regional companies to this community. In 1974 the following com- panies were added to those already among us: Travenol Laboratories/Baxter Labs, Panasonic, Pill sbury-Rohtstein Division, U.S. Plywood, American Motors Corporation, Codex Corporation, "Tennis 95", and Owens-Illinois. To this impressive list, our industrial parks include Hoerner Waldorf Corp., Corrofab, Inc., Sun Chemical Co., Foxboro Company, Nissan Motor Corp. in U.S.A., Western Union, Diano Corporation, Questor Corporation, Sherwood Medi- cal Industries, Borden Company -Drake Cake Division, Zayre Corporation. Those that have purchased land and hope for construction in 1975 are: The Fairfield Optical Co., Carpenter Technology, New England Controls, Inc. and Baltimore Brush Company. Both Cabot, Cabot & Forbes and Ryan, Elliot and Company plan a number of new speculation warehouses in their respective parks.

This equals the total number of projects previously completed during the Authority's five years of existence. Codex Corporation, lo- cated off West Street in the Cabot, Cabot & Forbes Industrial Park, applied for a $4 million bond issue. Corrofab, Inc., located on Maple Street, applied for a $300,000 bond issue. Both projects were finalized when they were approved by the Si_ate Board of Finance on November 19, 1974. The approval of these two projects makes Mansfield one of the most active municipalities in Industrial Revenue bonds within the Commonwealth. While there- were no ap- plications pending before the Authority at theend of 1974, there are several firms exploring the, potential of financing plant construction through the Authority. c manufacturing facility of Owens-Illinois anticipated to employ 300 persons with operation to begin in spring of 1975. 49 g s Z 1 photo of Fulton Pond dam Dredge in operation Dredge being unloaded in the winter of 1973 Preparation of the dredge Hydraulic stock piling of gravel Construction of the Fulton Pond dam Constructed dam Conservation Commission saw their efforts of the past five years come to a completion with respect to the restoration of ton Pond.

Operations and revenues are expected to grow more rapidly in the near future due to planned capital improve- ments and new businesses and aircraft on the field. Planned capital improvements will include relocation of the north -south runway which will be cut off by Route I-495 and additional paved aircraft parking areas. These im- provements will attract new business and aircraft owners. There will no out-of-pocket cost to the Town because the State will be required to pay damages for the land taken for Route I-495. This payment will exceed the Town's 5% cost of capital improvements. The planned capital improvements follow the Airport Master Plan to a limited degree and are included in the Report of the Capital Improvements Pro- gram Committee for the 1975 Annual Town Meeting. In FY 74-75 the Airport Commission accomplished the following: • received legislative approval for an earl) settlement for Route I-495 • repaired 1000 feet of the taxiway. • made major repairs to the administratior • negotiated leases with aviation businesses cate on the field. • continued planning for major capital improN continued efforts to keep maintenance cost enues.

Mansfield High School Mansfield High School continued to develop an educa- tional program which would meet the needs of each stu- dent. One way this is done is through the free 'elective system in which each student selects the courses desired that will enable him to meet his own personal career ob- jectives. In order for these personal objectives to be met as well as those present concerns of the society as a whole, the curriculum is constantly in need of review and revision. Each department is responsible for carrying out this evaluative process. 56 57 The Social Studies Department which has been de- veloping and implementing a highly individualized ap- proach carried the process one step further. An instruc- tional aide was assigned to this department whose main effort is to serve as a resource assistant for material pro- cessing, distribution and use. In addition to expanding the computer science courses, the Mathematics Department has revised the content of certain courses. Algebra I can now be taken as a one-year course or a two-year sequence. Currently, the department is giving much attention to the "general math" sequence. Students considering a career in the health services are now able to elect Biology for two years. Advanced Senior Science allows those with a deep interest in the sciences to perform at a high degree of concentration in the areas of physics and chemistry. The Science Department has also added a course in Earth Science which should prove be- neficial to many. Elements of English is a new course offered by the En- glish Department. This department has spent considera- ble time g develo in more effective ways of teaching stu- dents how to read critically, write well and communicate effectively.

In addition to expanding the computer science courses, the Mathematics Department has revised the content of certain courses. Algebra I can now be taken as a one-year course or a two-year sequence. Currently, the department is giving much attention to the "general math" sequence. Students considering a career in the health services are now able to elect Biology for two years. Advanced Senior Science allows those with a deep interest in the sciences to perform at a high degree of concentration in the areas of physics and chemistry. The Science Department has also added a course in Earth Science which should prove be- neficial to many. Elements of English is a new course offered by the En- glish Department. This department has spent considera- ble time g develo in more effective ways of teaching stu- dents how to read critically, write well and communicate effectively. A four-year sequence in Foreign Language is now a re- ality. Latin (at the request of students) has returned. Al- most fifty percent of the student body is enrolled in a foreign language course (French, Spanish or Latin). The Art Program has seen considerable expansion. Special interest areas such as crafts, design, painting and sculpture are now available. The products of the students are truly remarkable. For the first time an exploratory electricity program is in operation as part of the Industrial Arts offerings. A federal -state grant was of assistance in this endeavor. Home Economics has developed a course in Culinary Arts which might assist a youngster considering the food services field. Other departments such as Business and Music, con- tinue to stress "learning by doing". Their accomplish- ments speak well of them. As more and more Americans are completing high school education, the demands placed upon the high schools increase. Mansfield High School has and will con- tinue to strive to meet the needs of the student, the community, and the nation. Harold L. Qualters, Middle School The Harold L. Qualters Middle School student popula- tion continues to grow. At present, it is approximately 125 students over intended capacity. This general over- crowding continues to result in the curtailment of the educational program for grades 6 through 8, especially in the areas of art and music. This year, in an attempt to alleviate the space problem, two classrooms were loaned to the Middle School by the High School. Even with these extra rooms, classes were still being held in the Middle School cafeteria, auditorium and media center. There are six teachers who must float to available classroom space. One learning disabilities teacher meets her students in what was once the weight- lifting room, the other in an area formerly used as a wait- ing room. <Neither area is very conducive to learning. Four additional academic teachers and two special educa- tion teachers were hired by the 'school committee to meet the demands of the increasing numbers of students. A change in the daily 'program from eight to six periods was also made. While this resulted in fewer study halls and more class time, it also forced the elimination of the student activity period, a most popular program with both students and teachers. Common planning time for teachers was also eliminated. This year, the faculty continues the interdisciplinary,' team teaching approach — whereby all students - are placed in one of 7 teams made up of 5 academic teachers. Currently the faculty is preparing interdisciplinary teach- ing units to further enhance the concept of team teach- ing. During the Inservice Education Program, Dr. Robert McCarthy of Greenwich, R.I. and Dr. Richard Levy of Cherry Hill, N.H., conductedmini-workshops on team teaching, interdisciplinary teaching units and their im- plementation in a school. In the fall, Middle School students were issued a new report card. This was the result of a year-long faculty study to individualize the quarterly reports so that they reflect a more complete picture of the student's progress. The organizational pattern for next fall is still under - 58 f� s termined. At present, the only certain fact zs Middle School enrollment will be larger, thereb the facilities even more.

Everett W. Robinson School One thing we at Robinson have been most happy this year, is the relationships we have established' some of the area colleges. During the first semest this year we have had 5 student teachers from Sto College and 1 from Bridgewater State College ir kindergarten and an additional 8 from S.tonehill a from Bridgewater in our 4th and 5th grades. We a pate similar numbers during the second semester. tionally, a large number of Bridgewater students come over as observers. We are also pleased wid number of Mansfield High School students worki the kindergarten as part of their daily program.

During 1974, considerable renovation was done to the building. Concerned parents and School Committee members painted the classrooms during the April vaca- tion. The P.M. Club established a Resource Center i by converting a coat room into a productive learning area. The exterior of the building is in the process of being painted. During 1974, a very successful parent volunteer pro- gram was initiated. Parents have contributed their time in helping with recess duties, reading and language arts programs and one-to-one tutoring. John H. Berry School The John H. Berry School in West. Mansfield is a three-room school housing grades 1, 2 and 3. The Crea- tive Resource Center is continuing as the volunteer pro- ject of the P.M. Division of the New Century Club. The Recreation Commission conducted its summer program for the benefit of West Mansfield area children, using the playground and some facilities of the school. New play- ground equipment was installed through joint efforts of the Recreation Commission and the School Department. Cub Scouts use the building on each Tuesday evening during the school year. Paine School We were pleased to announce the reopening of the Paine School as a small neighborhood school in Sep- tember. Our building houses 1 first grade, I transitional second grade and 1 third grade, with a staff of 3 full-time teachers, an aide for the transitional grade, and serves as headquarters for two specialists in music and learning disabilities. Our facilities lend themselves to a very special learning environment. Learning Centers are implemented. These are most often teacher -made equipment placed in a de- signated area to which a child or a few children go to have a toal learning experience. This center may consist of one independent activity or of several sequential or re- lated activities through which the student works in order to develop a skill, apply a skill or develop a concept.

Speech Program The Speech Therapist is required by law to do a diag- nostic evaluation on the child, plan therapeutic programs and remedial services, keep records and counsel parents and others. The work of the therapist is related primarily to communication handicaps of individuals. After diagnostic testings were completed the last week of September, 88 students were enrolled in the speech program for the school year. Twenty children were in need of corrective swallowing therapy. Permission was ob- tained from the parents to work with these children after school hours. The results were most gratifying. The Speech and Drama workshop at the Middle School which is conducted after school hours has been most re- warding. These groups were formed to give children, who had been in therapy during their early school year, self-confidence in their everyday conversation, and to learn the art of oral communication. At least three pro- ductions a year are presented. The work of speech therapy is a challenging one in 109110AMM W Mansfield.

In - ;tion in proper dental health techniques were given ng these visits. All children requesting service were a prophylaxis and fluoride treatments. rade two classrooms were visited three times. phylaxis and fluoride treatments were given to all second lers requesting this service. ur program at the third-grade level remained much same; however, with the success of the expanded pla- control program last year, all classrooms were in - led in this activity with much success. All children re- stinz service were given the prophylaxis and fluoride -he number of classroom lectures on the fourth-grade �1 increased significantly as three lectures were given each class on each tract. Approximately twenty-seven Lures were given. The lectures included plaque control utilizing the Plak-Lite. Follow-up to these programs con- tinued in the language classes as children were encour- aged to write questions relating to their own dental health, and they also wrote dental health stories; on pre- venting injury to the teeth through accidents. The science classes also conducted some simple experiments. Students who had not received prophylaxis and fluoride in grade three due to lack of time were completed, as well as new students to the system who had not been seen. Two lectures were given to the fifth -grade classes. These lectures followed the same format as the previous year, but the filmstrip, "The Case of the Crooked Tooth was added. This filmstrip treats the problem of malocclu- sion and its prevention in a humorous way. Three classes were selected to participate in an expanded control pro- gram with the teachers providing an evaluation of its benefit for future years. As part of the prophylaxis and fluoride program, each child was provided with a toothbrush and given chariside instruction. They were then checked at in- tervals to see if they were maintaining good oral health. As part of Dental Health Month, the kindergarten program was visited three times. The lessons included: • Snack party and discussion. • Why brush your teeth? • A visit to the dentist. Anthony Vinciguerra, D.D.S., M.Sc.D., visited our program as General Chairman, Southeastern District, Massachusetts Dental Soceity. He was very impressed by our program and donated $100 to be used t toothbrushes whale parties and to be used to purchase ever grade level they might be neeor d. The Manfield Social Club also provided funds purchase toothbrushes for the kindergarten classes. Bulletin boards' promoting dental health wwere posted and Mrs. McMillan's music classes put on "The Toothache Mys- tery". This program was presented to all kindergarten classes, grades 4 and 5 and the John Berry School. The ninth -grade program remained the same as in the past. All kindergarten children were examined in the dental office and a record made for each child so that a more personal evaluation of each student might be available. These records have been made for each student throughout the system, pre-school to grade 9. Seven Pre-school Clinics were held with 218 children examined. Health Services 61 This year has been unusually busy due to the CORE and SPED programs of Chapter 766 which have resulted in 96 consultations and 69 home visits. Physical exams for grades 1, 4, 7 and 10, all athletic ac- tivities, CORE evaluations and handicapped children en- tering Jaycee competition were conducted throughout the year. Total for these exams was 1,610. All pupils received the standard vision and hearing tests required by law. Failures were reported and a follow-up carried on during the school year. A total of 5,851 first-aid treatments were administered. Park Row students using a listening station. Conferences were held with parents for specific health problems and 94 home visits were made. Tuberculin tests were given to 693 students in grades 1, 4, 7 and 12, as well as 83 faculty members and employees. Reactors were retested and referred to Attleboro Chest Clinic and x-ray and clearance. Tetanus -diphtheria boosters were given to 151 students in grade 10 who obtained parental permission. Mumps vaccine was not offered due to lack of time and the pres- ence of a mumps epidemic in which the vaccine is contra-indicated due to the possibility of double expos- ure. At 7 pre-school clinics held in the spring, 218 pre- kindergarten students were screened. Examination in- cluded a physical exam, urinalysis, vision and hearing exam, dental evaluation and pre-school psychological test- ing. Educational films were shown and instructional classes on personal hygiene were given to the various grades as in past years.

Seventy-two of the pupils are Mansfield students.

Tarsa of Mansfield and Rol Ewing of East Bridgewater have been and continuf guiding forces in the growth of the District. The u ified sacrifice of their time, effort, and experti made the District, one in which the area townspeor take great pride. In 1974 a special open house and tour was con( for the Mansfield Selectmen, School Committee, Fli Committee and Town Manager.

Grady notes the following ison of Town Meetings which were held during his ns as Moderator: )73, there were six actual sessions of the Annual Town g and two sessions when the Annual Town Meeting be adjourned due to a lack of quorom. 974, there were eight actual sessions of the Annual Meeting and two sessions when the Annual Town ig had to be adjourned due to a lack of quorum. In )n, the April 1, 1974, Meeting was adjo-orned because inual Report was not available. 973, there were three actual sessions of a Special Town ig and four sessions when a Special Town Meeting had adjourned for lack of a quorum. 1974, there was only one actual session of a Special Meeting and only one session of a Special Town Meet- journed for lack of a quorum. hurt, in each year, there was a combined total of nine working sessions of the Town Meeting. would appear that fewer Special Town Meetings is a able practice and the new procedure of consecutive )ns of the Annual Town Meeting, started in 1974, will urage voters to attend the Meetings in order to com- the voting on the warrant. is hoped that the Bylaws concerning Town Meetings be updated shortly in order to encourage voter atten- :e and participation while at the same time speedingthe ess. ,e Town Meeting may at times appear to be cumber - in operation, but is a truly marvelous form of democ- that can and will function effectively provided we all crate to that end.
