The party was the 15th annual Christmas event for disadvantaged children organized by Theresa Silvia, supervisor of test repairs at the plant. Silvia and her helpers raised about $900 from fellow employees and teamed with Brighton's Com munity Housing and Health Improvement Pro gram to draw up the invitation list for the event. Each child received a present, a visit and photograph with Santa and a treat containing a knit cap and fresh fruit. The remainder of the money raised went toward gift certificates at a local supermarket1 which were given away in a drawing at the party. Pictured with Silvia at the festivities are from left, Arly Fontenez, 9, Marisol Fontenez, 6, Meribeth Fontenez, 5 and Madeline Fontenez, 10. Some stocking stuffer: newborn Joseph McDer mott, son of Brighton residents, Anne and Joseph McDermott, is unfazed by the holiday hub-bub out side St. Elizabeth's Hospital Nursery as he makes a Yuletide appearance decked out in the traditional Christmas stocking created by staffer, Ann Coburn, R.N, shown with young Mr. McDermott.

"Today, you have my pledge it• that during this administration, you will count," Flynn said. " A mayor does not create a new vision of a city from the inner workings of his own mind. But rather, he col lects it from the scattered hopes and buried dreams of the people he has listened to in the course of his own political journey." The speech reflected many of the frustrations felt by Bostonians who claimed to be shut out of the political system under White. And it drew on some basic themes that those same people thought White had forgotten. "My father knew what it meant to treat people with respect, no matter the cut of the coat or the color of the skin," }le said. "It is that same sort of respect I will ex tend to every Boston resident dur ing my term as mayor. . . ' "My mother understood the pain felt when people were robbed of their dignity through misfortune or insensitivity. It is that dignity that, I hope, will extend to every Boston resident during my term as mayor." 0 Flynn campaigned on the themes of accessibility and openness, and soon after he took the oath, he unlocked his office doors, and in vited in guests. The "welcome sign" he alluded to in his speech went up and those who would never have even thought of knock ing on the Mayor's door found themselves inside his office. City Councilors, press, sup porters. and staff members milled about the spacious office suite, and although many of them had work· -~~ .. had rarely seen the .Mayor'...... , s furnishings. "Come to think of it, I've only been here about five times," said 25-year council veteran Christopher Iannella. "So, this is what it looks like," was a common expression. AB was: "So this is how the other half liv ed." For Mayor Ray Flynn and his supporters inaugura As photographers posed Flynn tion Monday provided numerous highlights. Above, in front of a window overlooking one woman holds a copy of the program with the new White's prized accomplishment - Faneuil Hall marketplace - one mayor's autograph and best wishes. At right and person noted how he had always directly below, former Mayor Kevin Whit.e and Flynn's looked up at the fifth floor office challenger, Melvin King, attended. But Flynn, far window, but never had the oppor tunity to look down from it. below, got the glory. District 9 Councilor Brian McLaughlin noted Tuesday: "I felt like the whole office had been liberated. He (Flynn) made a lot of good moves yesterday." "There's a difference between ....-· respect and awe," noted one White era veteran. "People were in awe of Kevin White; he was unap proachable. People respect Ray Flynn, but they're not in awe of him.'' The Mayor's office resembled backstage opening night. Flynn probably signed more programs for well-wishers in his office than he did after he was named Most Valuable Player at the National In vitational Tournament in the ear ly sixties. Flynn's six children wandered about their father's new s urroundings, while his wife, Cathy, thought about redecorating. "What's this for? To put keys in?" one daughter asked Flynn in front of the cameras. From off camera came the response: "I don't know." Even the new Mayor will need time to discover exactly what is at his disposal. The hallways outside the inner offices were cluttered with tables set up for a special luncheon. "Kevin would throw a fit if he saw that place in there," said one coun cilor about the luncheon set·up. "Tables in the halls! " Guests later dined with the Mayor before he joined public housing representatives for another meal "The name is still Ray, and I'm still going to come down to D street to play basket· ball." he said. The former Mayor, meanwhile. intends to spend some time vaca· tioning in the Caribbean before starting his new private life. His parting gesture to Flynn was a note, handwritten, and left on Flynn's new desk. In part it read: "Hope your days in this office will be happy and prosperous."
