Mr. Wilgoren and Mr. Tapply are seen deeply engrossed in a discussion of some topic with great “vigah.” These two young teachers are in part responsible for generating an excitement about history notable at Lexington. This has been encouraged through panels and round tables with the emphasis on the expression of personal ideas on all topics relating to the political and social sphere. Enjoying a hasty lunch are Miss Kornblith, Miss Lav, and Mr. DiGiammarino. Miss Kornblith is a Harvard Intern who graced the social studies scene for the first half of the year, to be replaced by her partner, Mr. Fletcher. Miss Lav was an intern last year and joined the staff full time this year. Mr. DiGiammarino, who has in addition to his teaching duties the back-breaking task of supplying all departments with audio-visual aids, finds time to run the student government day annually and to advise the senior class. 17 Ever wonder what goes on between two teachers in the corridors? Here are Mr. Gibson and Mr. Zucco, caught at such a moment, discussing an unknown topic which could be anything from political philosophy to governmental gossip to student shenanigans.

Miss Lewis and Mrs. Calvert are relaxing in the Teachers’ room away from the hustle and bustle of their classes. The teachers’ room is one of the few retreats left in the school for our tired teachers. Students aren’t the only ones who must keep up their studies, teachers also must do their share. Here is seen Mr. Moores keeping up with his studies lest he be over- run by the verbose opinions of his students.
