FROM THE MAYOR'S OFFICE
To THE CnizEiNs oi- CJon'Cord:
During the year 1964, 1 have had am-
p\e oj)j)ortunily to leai n the needs and
desires ot the peojjle of Concord.
While yoin- public servants have gone
about the business ol keejiing the city
clean, sale, and healthy, they have also
been considering how they may best
j)rovide the additional facilities and
services which discriminating citizens
are seeking.
The past )ear has brought especially
heavy responsibilities to your Board of
Aldermen and the Planning Board.
CJity planning has grown steadily more
complex, with increased federal and
state involvement in civic affairs here
in the capital and "nerve center" of
New Hampshire.
The face of the city is changing. Our good roads, fine libraries and recrea-
tional facilities have proved attractive both to industry and to home
owners. Two recent fires on Main Street have accelerated the face-lifting
process there; an urban renewal project is under consideration; a new
federal building, the N. H. Technical Institute, and new homes in fringe
areas have recjuired access roads and extension of city facilities.
Continuing citi/en sup})ort and cooperation will, I am sine, meet the
challenges that face the city as we plan for the Bicentennial in 1965 and
for the years ahead.

ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT
The buikling. lemodelino; and changing in Concord continues at a
moderate pace but w'nh more activity than the previous year. The growth
is noted in all areas — stores and commercial buildings, residences and
apartments, subdivisions, streets, utilities, parking lots, and public build-
ings. Concords first professional building with off-street parking has
now been completed.
Growth continues to a large extent east of the Merrimack in East Concord
and the Heights. Two new apartment buildings were added to the Lexing-
ton Manor. There is a ne\v subdivision off East Side Drive. The new
State Office Building opened on the Heights and, with all the industry
there, the greatest employment of labor is now on the East side. The
gro^\th to the East is very evident in the traffic problem at Bridge
and Manchester Streets at 8:00 a. m. and 5:00 p. m.
PUBLIC A\ ORKS
In addition to routine maintenance, the Public A\'orks Department
was involved in several imique projects. We biult the road and set the
pumping station for the \\'ater Department at Turkey Pond: the Me-
morial Field stands Avere conij^leted: and in addition we excavated the
old floor of the Community Center and installed the concrete subfloor
when the Recreation Dejjartment needed help.
A\'e are in serious trouble with trees. This is the third dry year and
many trees are dying; the rej^lacements are drying up and dying, and the
Dutch Elm is increasing, ^\'e must expend considerably more on trees
or become a treeless city.
The Sewer Department, under Mr. Emmons, is conducting an inspec-
tion, cleaning and repair program that is eliminating plugged lines,
providing better service, and jMomoting better public relations as -well as
saving mone\. We are continuing the separation of storm drains Avhen-
ever possible.
The Refuse Department is continuing to show improvement in opera-
tion and service. ^Vith a hundred and fifty containers out, we have
eliminated one of the four dailv collection trucks, ^\'e plan to go to con-
tainer trains next year for further savings.
The Public A\orks Department started a ne^\- idea in highwav main-
tenance this year — the use of a grid roller to break up the existing
pavement and reclaim it for reuse. The method ^vas tried on South State
Street, Portsmouth Street and Country Club Lane with excellent results.

This machine will sa\e the Cit\ thousands ol dollars and piovide better

Library staff places more books in Penacook Branch.
Hardie Gramatky, Author of "Little Toot," arrives with Nelson
Whipple, President of The Friends of the Library and Mayor Davie.
CITY LIBRARY
Books and Materials — 1 lie )ear 1964 was another vintage year at the
library — materials, circulation, registration and services hit new peaks.
The book collection was increased to a total of 111,600, with 5,003 new
books being added. The music and record collection was greatly en-
larged by the addition ot almost 300 recordings, making a total of 1286
reconlings in the librar\. 1 he j)rint collection gained eleven new prints,
and there are now thirt)-one framed j^rints for circidation. Ajij^roximately
350 films were available for circulation during the year.
A new featine in materials was the addition of twenty-nine taped record-
ings of book discussions. These lajDes were cataloged and placetl on shelves
available to borrowers.
C^irculation figures were at a new high with 323,774 items circulated.
There are 24,817 registered borrowers, which rejiresents about 86 percent
of the jiopulation of (Joncord, a phenomenal figure by library standards.
BuildiuiTs and Equipincnl — Except for the areas which might be in-
volved in the contemplated addition to the library, the relighting project
begun in 1962 has now been completed. All of the woodwork in the
library has been waxed; the walls of the first floor ha\e been painted.
New chairs and tables ha\e been jnuchased for the adidt reading room.
Penacook Branch has all new lighting, a new charge desk and new floor
co\ering.
An architect, Mr. Guy K. C. Wilson, was engaged to draw preliminary
plans for the proposed addition. The City Librarian wrote a jMogram for
this addition and worked with the Library Board and Mr. Wilson on the
jDlans for this addition which have been j^resented to the Concord Board
of Aldermen.
Serx'iccs — Reference and advisory services continued to increase in all
departments of the library. In addition to borrowing a record number of
books and other materials, more people, many from other towns, availed
themselves of the library's resources in the reference room, reading room,
and the new public browsing area, judging from the large nimiber of
telephone requests for information, some I^y long distance, more and more
jieople are finding this a convenient and expedient way to use the library.
Dining 1964 the library loaned 447 books and other materials through
the inter-library loan system, while borrowing only sixty-one, approxi-
mately a third of the number borrowed in 1963.

The public was kept informed ol the resources of the library through
articles, book reviews, and lists of ne-w books and records which aj:)peared
in the Concord Monitor, the Manchester Union, Concord Shoppers News,
and the Newsletter of the (Joncord Chamber of Commerce. Many re-
quests, and some new borroAvers, came to the library as a result of the
taped book revie^vs. spot annoimcements, and informal talks on W'KXL.
The Librar\ ftn ther publicized its services and sj^ecial programs with the
distribution of the following catalogs and leaflets: catalog of films avail-
able for loan 1964-(i5; listings of film jjrograms, both for athdts and for
children; fall and simimer bidletins giN ing the libiar\'s hoins and listing
the resources and special programs otferetl: \\eekly listings of ""Dates ^vith
your Public Library. "
By request the Librarian repeated a series of six lessons on the Use of the
Library for Adidts. The Adtdt Book Discussion Grotq) was continued by
pojDular demand, meeting Aveekly from No\ ember to April. The Librarian
and other members of the staff responded to frequent requests to talk to
groujjs and organizations.
Twelve classes for mothers of jne-school thildren ^vere held in the Chil-
dren's Room, -^vith special stories and acti\ ities for the jMe-school children.
Weekly story hoius were held in the Main Librar\, ami at the Penacook
Branch. During the simimer seven weekly stor\ hours were held at play-
grotmds in different sections of the cit).
The Bookmobile added six new stops to its regular schedide dining the
simimer and four additional stops after school started, enabling the library
to reach man\ more readers in oiith ing areas of the city. This resulted in a
gain in circulation of 4.910 in the six months after the new schedule was
put into effect.
Films — In line with the library's growth from a book-lending institution
to an educational center, use of audio-visual materials has increased sub-
stantially in the past year. Since March 1. 1964, the library has recorded
the number of viewers, as well as the number of films loaned for home use;
and l^y December .SI of 1964, 17.516 persons had vie\\ed our films. 481
films Avere loaned for grou]3 sho^vings during 1964. To meet the increased
demand, sponsored films ha\e been secured on long-term loan, thus in-
creasing the number of films available. Members of the staff have attended
preview sessions of the North Coimtr\ Co-ojjerative Film Group, to assist
in reviewing and selecting purchases for the tri-state area.
A\'ithin the library, films ^vere used for t\\o -weekh programs. October
through April — a Saturday morning series for grades four to six, and
a Tuesdav evening program for adults and \oung peo]:)le. In the Chil-
dren's Room and at Penacook Branch, occasional film programs ha\e lent
20
variety to the stor)-hoin. 1 he Friends of the Library presented three full-
length fdnis at the (^ity Viiditorium, j^lanned for e\enings when children
Avould not be in scliool the follo\\ing day.
Print Coll<'< lion — The framed jjrint collection remained highly active
in 1964. 1 he Friends of the Library donated tAvelve new prints to our
existing collection, making a total of thirty-one copies of j^aintings by a
grouj) of heterogeneous artists. We now have prints dating back to Leo-
nardo da Vinci and many of the masters through the centmies, includ-
ing contemj)orary artists Paul Klee and Grant \\'ood.
In May, the Friends of the Library made good use of our redecorated
loimge area Avhen they jjresented a showing of oin- new jjrints with com-
ments by a member of their group. The collection of prints was re-
sponsible for 28-^ loans during the year. Each pictine has reserves; many
ha\e twenty or more borrc^wers waiting to use them.
Music Room — 1 he Ruth Ma) Music Room Ijecame increasingly popular
in 1964 as more people became aware of the room and its collection.
Several users presented recordings to the library as tokens of their ap-
preciation for the use of the room. The record collection in the room has
increased to 309. Dining the year, the Music Room was used for a series
of Satinclay morning classes in music ajJ):)rec!ation for children, and for
several aclidt sessions, all sponsored by the Concord Music Club. The
Music Room is becoming well known to students and the general public;
in the words of one user, "an oasis where one can go and listen to good
music."
Exhibits — With the cooj^eralion of generoirs and talented people in the
greater Concord area, the library has had some fine exhibits, requiring a
minimum of time and effort from the staff. Authentic models of aircraft
used by many nations in World ^\'ar II attracted much interest among
men and boys. Another friend tinned his collecting hobby into an inter-
esting display of British soldiers in regimental dress, and a small replica
of the Coronation scene. Stencilled furniture and trays were among the
pieces made by a crafts class, and attractively jMacecl in the Blanchard
Room, for a week in May. Young j^eojile's talents were evident in a fine
rock collection, a window filled with Origami originals; a Girl Scout trooj)
did an appealing show-case for the children's room, and a children's pa-
triotic group arranged a Thanksgiving scene for the main floor vestibule.
Two most attractive shows, one featuring artifacts from Africa, the other
gay Christmas crafts, toys, and figurines from Norway, were loaned and
arranged by a library friend who had li\ed briefly in Europe and Africa.

FIRE DEPARTMENT
Fire Loss — There were no extremely heavy fire losses during 1964. The
largest single loss recorded was inider $21,000. The Fire Department re-
sponded to a total of 714 emergency calls and 39 non-emergency calls.
Tinder dry woods conditions prevailing throughout the summer and
fall, combined with a water shortage, left this department faced with
an explosive situation. Through the aid of press and radio coverage the
jjublic was made aware of these dangerous conditions, and brush and grass
fires were kept to a minimimi. The Oak Hill Tower watchman also con-
tributed greatly to controlling this situation by early spotting of fires.
Personnel — The Fire Department operated with a staff of sixty-six
jjermanent men and fifty-five call firemen. Permanent Fire Department
personnel presently work on a scheduled 56-hour week. Deputy Melvin G.
Davis was appointed as Fire Department Training Officer on Jtme 1,

call men.
Apparatus and Equipment — A new Chief's car and a new Deputy's car
were put into service late in the year to replace 1959 models that had been
in use.
An order was placed in October 1964 for an 85-foot aerial platform (or
snorkel) type truck to replace Ladder No. 1, a 1939 model.
Two more smoke ejectors were purchased this year bringing our total to
three. This equi})ment has proved invaluable both by minimizing smoke
losses in buildings and by enabling fire fighters to work their way into a
building more quickly.
Maintenance — Maintenance of vehicles and equipment has been per-
formed by the department mechanic at Central Station except in some
instances where the facilities at the City Highway Department have been
utilized.
The fire alarm box system was extended to the Concord Heights area this
year and new cable installed from Bridge Street easterly to Loudon and

WATER DEPARTMENT
]Valcr Consumption — Consuinjjtion lor l'J()4 amoiintetl to 1,450,541,500
gallons, this rej:)ieseiuing an average daily consumjition of 3,963,228
gallons, (about 137 gallons per person per clay) . Of the total amount used
1,083,909,500 gallons were pumped and 366,632,000 gallons were supplied
by gra\it) directly from Penatook Lake. This consumj^tion for 1964 was
15,484,350 gallons more than the consumption for 1963.
Water Supply — Concord still faced an acute crisis in its water supply at
the beginning of the year, as the ele\ation of Penacook Lake was 10 feet
below spillway ele\ation with no heavy precipitation predicted. The
W^ater Study Committee and Camp. Dresser and McKee, Consulting
Engineers, recommended to the Board of Aldermen that an Emergency
Water Supply be constructed at Turkey Pond as soon as possible, to pump
water into Penacook Lake. This recommendation was approved on Feb-
ruary 17th and construction was started at once. A sheet metal pumping
station was erected over a manhole in Tmkey Pond, a three million
gallon per day pimip was installed, and 6,000 feet of 18-inch pipe were
laid, most of it on top of the ground to save time. The pump was
started on April 23rd and continued imtil June 1st when the water
stopped running over the dam at Turkey Pond. Dining this period 114
million gallons were pimiped into Penacook Lake from this source,
holding the lake at the same elevation during the month of May and
making it possible to go through the summer season without reaching the
danger point.
The Board of Aldermen approved 320,000 for an engineering study and
investigation of all possible sources of a permanent additional water
supply, and at the end of the year the consulting engineers were pre-
l^ared to confer Avith the AN'aier Study Committee on the results of their
investigation.
Once again precipitation was below normal for the year and in November
the Lake again reached 10 feet below spillway elevation. St. Paid's School
again granted permission to jiumj) from Turkey Pond e\en though water
was not running over the clam. Showers brought Turkey Pond u]) and
pumping was continued the rest of the year. During this period 133 mil-
lion gallons were pumped, making a total of 247 million gallons jjumped
from Tmkey Pond in 1964.
This supply from Turkey Pond was one sixth of the total year's con-
simiption. ^N'ithout it the lake would have been two feet lower at the end
of the year and only two and one half feet abo\e the intake, which woidd
really have been a critical situation. Since the total cost of this emergency
supply from Turkey Pond was 570,400, it has j^roved to be one of the best
investments the city ever made.
43
Sfuidcrs ]Vcll field — The ele\;ition of ihc ground water table held up
surprisingly well in the well field during the year and 400 million gallons
were pumped from the foin- new 18-inch wells at this location. This
amoinit was a little over one fourth of the total consumption lor the
year so it is easy to see that without this the water supply jMoblem woidd
have been even more critical.
Major Construction Projects — Water main extensions were laid in Fan
Road and Marginal Road (to the new Technical Institute) ; Burns
Avenue, Caicket Lane, Dover Street, Garvins Falls Road, jay Drive,
Partridge Road and Robin Road (all on the Heights) ; Abbott Road and
Sewalls Falls Road (in West Concord) ; and Wilson Avenue (in the South
End) . On these projects 9,308 feet of cement-lined, cast-iron pipe were
laid, (114.7 miles of mains now in system). Eleven new hydrants were
installed, (819 hydiants no^v in system) . Twehe new main line \alves and
1 1 valves on hythant branches were installed (1,7(^6 vahes now in system) .
Ninety new service connections were laid antl 34 old service connections
were discontinuetl ((3,389 service connections now in system) . Eighty-
three new meters were installed and 17 old meters were discontinued
(5,812 meters now in system) .
Major Replacements Projects — In Abbott Road (West Concord) 152
feet of 10-inch, cement-lined cast-iron pipe were laid replacing old six-
inch pi|je laid in 1934; in Center Street (in Penacook) 258 feet of six-inch
cement-lined cast-iron pii:>e were laid replacing old two-inch l>ipe laid in
1933; and in Glatlstone Street (in city projjer) 1 17 feet of six-inch cement-
lined cast-iron pipe were laid replacing old 114-inch J^ipe laid in 1912.
Thirty-nine old service connections were relaid with copper tubing. Foiu'
old hydrants were replaced with new Indrants. Eighty-nine old meters
were rejjlaced with new meters.
Personnel — Ralph W. Flanders, Assistant Superintendent, completed 50
years of faithful and efficient service on July 20th, which is a record few can
hope to ecpial. 1 he dej^artment lost two faithfid veteran employees, in
the sudden deaths ol Robert D. Prescott, Sr. after 34 years' service, and
Bernard L. 7 ownes after 14 years' service.
Water Main Cleaniii'^ and Flushing Program — Due to the critical water
supply problem cltning the year, no mains were cleaned and the regtdar
flushing of all hydrants in the system had to be omitted as both oj^era-
tions use a very large amotmt of water.
Major Maintoianee Projects — Fifteen hydrants were rej^aired and two
hydrants were set in new locations, 148 meters were rej^aired and re-
tiuned to service. Every hydrant in the system was tested weekly between
December 15th of the pre\'ious year and March 15th of the current year
to guard against freezing and to assine proper operation of all hydrants.
44
All electrical |)unii)ing etjuipment and recording ecjuijjment in the four
pimij^ing stations and emergency station was checked, serviced and re-
paired il necessary. The oil burners and heating boilers were serviced at
the same locations. Department personnel painted the combination Ward
Nine Wardhouse and Storehouse, rebuilt the brick wall in the rear ol a
two-stall garage at North State Street, and installed new flashing and reset
the cap stones on roofs at the Sanders jjinnping station in Pembroke.
Nciv EquipfiK'iit — The dejxntmeni acquired two Ford i/o-ton pickup
trucks and a (Jhe\ rolet Ciarryall wagon.
Leaks — Thirty-t\\'o leaks were rej)aired, 11 on mains and 21 on service
connections.
