• -3- The day before the posters were to be submitted for judging, she had been told that because of the prize money involved, the students were not allowed to be involved and had worked on LEXPRESS posters instead. This decision had been made by the Head of the Art Dept. Mary Hastings had suggested that a letter from the LCC , asking that school children enter the contest on their own, be distributed to all school principals. She and Marge Battin will confer with the Acting Supt of Schools as soon as possible to establish guide- lines for the entry of students in the contest and to discuss the communication break-down regarding contest plans and commitments. COORDINATION WITH HDC & DAC Marge Battin reported that it was agreed at a joint meeting of the Chairman of the HDC, DAC and LCC that the DAC & LCC jointly develop Center design guidelines with review and comment by the HDC before they are adopted. It was agreed that whenever applicable, the LCC will send the HDC a memo on any projects appearing before the HDC that have been initiated or approved by the LCC. HANGING SIGNS - SIGN BY-LAW The LCC, DAc and HDC will work together to review and if necessary recommend changes in the sign by-law to the Planning Board to make it easier to have hanging signs either as a right or by making a Special Permit easier to obtain.

LEXINGTON MEMORIAL - "BLUE GHOST" Mr. Eddison referred to an agenda item to be taken up at the Selectmen' s meeting on Monday, November 2. The Lion' s Club is in the process of gaining permission to install a memorial of the U.S .S . Lexington in the area of the Visitor' s Center. The design of the memorial is considered to be good by the Historic Districts and Mr. Eddison. There is some concern with the location and its possible intrusion on the open are in front of the Visitor' s Center. Several members of the LCC will attend the Selectmen' s Meeting to hear the entire presentation by Peter DiMatteo, designer, and them will walk the site with the HDC, DAC in order to obtain a clearer picture of the possible location. It is hoped the committees can then make a joint recommendation regarding the best location. 1
