Caption: "Educational boomerang--Open School Week at P. S. 139 [located at 330 Rugby Road] offered little more than a collection of horrors for certain parents. Fifth grade 'pig sty' classrooms boasts pair of sinks [1373] ... which serve as spawning ground for roaches and centers of filth. Another sight for sore eyes is clothing closet [SCHL 1372] ... where even new clothes look like rags on floor. ... Mrs. L. Gastman [SCHL 1373] points to old gas pipe that juts into center of classroom."
