q")146,...4 FITZGERALD'S Nothing more to report to the Board about the Fitzgerald's horses, Mr. HORSES Smith said. 10 BLOSSOM STREET ILLEGAL MEAT TRUCKS HEALTH FAIR The Board wants to check the property out and decided to go on Tuesday all together at 4:00 p.m. to look the situation over. Mr. Smith said he had been called to 10 Blossom Street because of an oil leak in the cellar. A line in the oil burner broke and the oil was all over the cellar floor. The serviceman was called and the problem was taken care of. While Mr. Smith was there a van pulled up and about 20 Chinese people got out that were living there. Mr. Smith said this is a single family house and the men were sleeping just everywhere in this house. This property is owned by Chester Chi, owner of the Peking Gardens Restaurant. Mr. Smith told the Board that he had written Chester a letter today telling him to either get a license for a lodging house or reduce the number of people living there to four. Mr. Smith told the Board that there has been a couple of little trucks going around town peddling meat and fish illegally because they are suppose to have a "Hawkers and Peddlers" license, a fish and game license and a license from the Board of Health. He said that the policemen and firemen have been buying these products from the trucks and have since complained about the short weight of the boxes. Mr. Smith has not been able to catch up with them as yet but he did tell the police to keep their eyes open for them. Mr. Smith also talked to the "Sealer of Weights and Measures" about this because the packages are not marked with the weight. Mr. Smith told the Board that the Town's health fair will be on May 15th from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. Anne Scigliano of Symmes is really pitching in and coordinating the whole fair. The Board discussed the new Genetic Research Lab. Collaborative Research that is now located at 128 Spring Street in Lexington. Mr. Smith and Mr. Lambie had been invited over to view the new facilities. (Office and Lab. in Waltham) Collaborative Research said they do not plan to do any D & A work in Lex- ington at this time. Mr. Lambie explained briefly the work at the human cell Lab. (enzines) in regard to blood clots. Mr. Smith explained that the Lexington facilities will be doing research with rabbits and mice and they have applied for a permit to keep these on the premises. The Board discussed this further with Dr. Erdos asking if Lexington has their own regulations, would we eventually go before the Board of Selectmen with this, and also stated that the Board of Health should review what is available to make up the best regulations that can be found for this Town in regard to this research facility.
