-c, 0 ' Nji® ■] J FOREWORD The blueprint of the school was essentially the blueprint of the year. The school building determined the size of the classes, how much could be crammed into one locker, what projects could be attempted in labs, and what kind of decorations were feasible for dances. Other unseen blueprints picked the student’s classmates, cut his time into forty minute periods, and set up required pro¬ grams of studies. Class activities, clubs, and sports also offered blueprints through which certain talents were developed. Stu¬ dents became better athletes, debaters, scholars, and linguists by following these blueprints. Because so many blueprints patterned the students’ lives, blueprint was chosen as the theme for the book. This yearbook was intended to be a blueprint for remem¬ bering the year 1961-62.

Marotta. To some he was best remembered sporting flamboyant hats and shrill whistles as the head cheerleader at the pep rally. Others knew him as the disciplinarian whose blueprint for justice was “firm but fair.” Weekly progress reports over the P.A. at the end of F period which both threatened and entertained the students were his specialties. The new school itself owed Mr. Marotta a debt of gratitude. During the past summer he followed the archi¬ tect with blueprint in hand to see that the right color desks were put in the right room and that other specifications were met. Because of his success ai being several different people at one time, disciplinarian, teacher, coach and follower of blue¬ prints, and because of the aid he has given to the class as its advisor, the class has dedicated this yearbook to Mr. Marotta in the hope that he will continue in Weston High the service which he has shown to the class of ‘ 62 .’ “I want you to really ' ELL tonight.” 4 EXCELLENCE IN SECONDARY EDUCATION On December 2, the new school became the scene and the stage for its own official christening into the anxious arms of the Weston School System. The footsteps and pedantic voices of many guests, prominent in the field of education, filled the corridors and rooms of the building. There was a general open-house for the benefit of those townspeople who wished to see what the increase in their tax rate had achieved. Praise for thrift and ex¬ clamations of awe were both seen and heard. Panels composed of Weston High teachers and guests discussed the achievements and the goals of subjects from History to Mathematics. Mr. Saltonstall speaking at the school dedication.

Monolithic piles of brick upon brick, stacks of lumber glaring white in the sun, sallow-colored packages resting in the brown earth, those were the materials. From this sordid bed of confusion rose the unfinished shell of Weston High School. The shell was gray, cavernous, echoing, peopleless. It lacked the warmth and sounds that only students could create. Main Hall Lecture Hall Main Entrance Auditorium THE COMPLETED BUILDING The finished product was a cheerful but chilly chamber in which to learn. Amid the sound of new buzzers the students slid from class to class and from orange chair to green until the hollow corridors echoed with the scrapings of scuffing shoes hurrying so as not to incur the stern looks and the confusion of arriving late to class. The inanimate objects of the glass, steel, and brick menagerie became the structural blueprint which encased the students’ lives and gave a mere building life. ADMINISTRATION Mr. Donald Hale, Vice Principal; Dr. Anthony Brackett, Superintendent; Mr. Willard Smith, Principal. ADMINISTRATION Congratulations went to our administrative troika who dedicated their time and nervous systems to our education, and to Mr. Glea¬ son, the Accordion Plan’s undercover agent. Mr. Proctor deserved commendation for his excellent physical fitness program. Mr. Walter fileason, .Accordion Plan Director 10 GUIDANCE With kniv ' es in their teeth, the guid¬ ance department stood prepared to ad¬ vise tortured youths. The underclassmen found consolation under the often soothing hand of Mrs. Abbott. The guidance of the trying Junior and Senior years fell upon Mr. Carini and Mr. Cummings whose advice was in¬ valuable. The tedious secretarial work was left to the undaunted Mrs. Sin¬ clair.

I 1 FACUL • ■4 Within the blueprint of the school structure, the faculty members created a learning atmos¬ phere by giving of their knowledge, experience, and time. This learning process continued after school in extra-curricular activities. Students and teachers worked cooperatively in play pro¬ ductions, clubs, musical programs, and publi¬ cations. Participating in these activities helped each student to develop his own character blue¬ print. rV-ACTIVITIES MATHEMATICS STAFF: Mr. Kellett, Miss Holt, Miss Specht, Mrs. Ellsworth. MATHEMATICS In spite of a teacher’s impulsive tendency to beat metal desks with night-sticks and although the amount of math actually absorbed was held in doubt by some observers, Weston’s Math Department succeeded in imparting mathematical wisdom to the students. In addition to overseeing the ordinary scholastic endeavors of math students, the department sponsored the successful interscholastic Math Team which was second in the seven-team league. The Math Club sponsored the exciting intra-mural math contest attended by hordes of enthusiastic students. “Think you’re funny, don’t ya!’’ i MATH 11 RES CE ■ CENTER 13 WORKSHOP 15 GIRLS BOYS -INC. } MATH 17 MATH 19 MATH 21 I I Miss Zelinka, Head of Mathematics Department. “This will stump them.” I reas.. i.

Physics wave generator ' PHYSICS AND CHEMISTRY Amid the talk of Newton’s Laws, Avagadro’s principle, energy, val¬ ences and work, the students’ minds were kept in the perpetual motion of attempting to understand and assimilate the vast theories of chem¬ istry and physics. The brilliant, gleaming, and often frightening array of lab equipment facilitated the task of understanding and helped to make and unmake future scientists. Regardless of the double lab pe¬ riods and the endless reading and re-reading of scientific passages, the students acquired or rather dug out the knowledge and fascination of the mysteries of science.

BIOLOGY There was no other part of Weston High that was quite as “live” as the biology section. Snakes, guinea pigs, hybiscus plants, geraniums, and in the mist of them all Mr. Keene, made an atmosphere of living biology, which was permeated with the odor of formaldehyde and pick- led crickets. Who will forget the discover) of the suprae- sophageal ganglion, or the mounting of the crayfish and its minute components, or the first incision into the earthworm or the dogfish? The outdoor labs and the annual morning bird walk also added a living touch. I ( Hold still, dogfish! 18 Mr. Keene ' s boa constrictor. SCIENCE CLUBS In the anxious hands of the Biology Club, trout found new safety as the chief victims of the club’s conservation attempts. The club also sponsored informative field trips involving crow¬ bar skulls, walks in the rain, and damp hours in sub-tropical greenhouses. The Science Club was the promoter of scientific excitement in Weston High and through the Science Night stu¬ dents found a chance to display their science work to parents and interested townspeople. The science-crammed heads of the Science Team led Weston to victories over teams from other schools. SCIENCE QUIZ TEAM: ROW 1: Natick Team. ROW 2: Ara Avakian, Will Vaughan, Rickv Thomas. R. Shaw.

French Class was a confused world of doing vocabulary lists and mysterious past anterior verbs. “Les professeurs” taught French, planned entertaining programs for the French Club, and promoted increased interest in the Weston-Rombas Affiliation and in other student exchange programs. Cracking down on note passers, the department ran an efficient lab which the students used twice a week ostensibly to improve their pronunciation. 21 RUSSIAN CLUB: ROW 1: C. Christopher, T.

Would be Latinists often found it difficult to memorize declensions and conjugations and to translate the verbal gymnastics of Cicero and not difficult to enjoy Virgil’s poetry or understand “Winnie file Pooh.” Students often marveled that the basis of many languages was buried under the onus of Latin grammar. Once the Russian stu¬ dent had mastered the idiosyncracies of the Russian alpha¬ bet and the pronunciation of its letters, he was prepared to wrestle with “Bela.” Mrs. Czarnowski, permanent sub¬ stitute.

EXCHANGE STUDENTS Muy Buena The purpose of fostering ' international understanding was best exhibited by the six foreign exchange students, for they brought the warm spirit of their countries to Weston High. They also contributed their individual talents and became impor¬ tant members of their class. Josyanne Braas when not tutoring French students and trying American sports, Fernando Rangel, and Sabine Podolsky through their friendship, became well respected members of the school. FOREIGN EXCHANGE STUDENTS: Josyanne Braas, Fernando Rangel, Guillerinina Na- arro, Lilia Navarro, Jon Sanderud, Sabine Podolsky. i. ENGLISH ENGLISH STAFF Mr. Robert Walker, Mr. Robert Clawson, Mr. Charles Hatch, Mr. Paul Nichols. The aim of the English Department this year as m the past has been to make cul¬ tured pearls from grains of sand. This noble and often frustrated aim was accom¬ plished not only by classroom hysteria but also by the extracurricular clubs and activities within the department. Such activities as the Folio, which was our first non-profit organization, and the Smoke Signal, most noted for editorial prowess, stimulated the students’ interest and, it seemed, their apathy.

The newly created Drama Club plunged successfully into its first season at Weston High with the production of Shaw’s “Arms and the Man,” followed by Girandoux’s “The Madwoman of Chaillot.” Placid and everyday students were transformed into be-mustached soldiers, Bulgarian noble women, shrill-voiced mothers, mad women, rag pickers and other assorted vagrants. Perhaps even more amazing than the transition of students to interesting characters were the professional performances which astounded the audiences and led to the after-play egotism of the actors.

In the Social Studies Department, the Modern Problems course, a new threat to senior freedom, made use of joint lectures and the interchanging of teachers to better acquaint the students with the problems of our present day world, which were best summed up in a bomb. The Accordion Plan put the squeeze on the two com¬ bined Junior English and History courses. The Discussion Club took an active part in increasing the scope of the students’ understanding of modern affairs by the use of heated discussions at overly populated meetings.

One of the main attractions of the new library was the combination of upholstered chairs and the magazine rack. With the arrival of the books, a horde of library assistants were recruited, and the students were forced to settle down to more serious studies by the use of the new pass system.

HOME ECONOMICS The greatest boon to the male sex was the Home Economics Department at Weston High School where the otherwise unintelligent female learned how to cook a meal, set a table, and to sew a fine seam. A major contributor to this education was the Future Homemakers of America Club, under the direction of Mrs. Ray¬ mond, who imparted womanly hints to the girls through their club activities. Mrs. Thelma Hoyle, Business. Mrs. Ruth Raymond, Home Eco¬ nomics. BUSINESS From the Business Department carefully surv ' eyed by Mrs. Hoyle, came many aids and many threats to male sup¬ remacy in the business world. Nowhere was this compe¬ tence more obvious than in the Future Business Leaders of America Club, which gathered together those interested in the business world for club activities and for doing clerical work that was vital to the operation of the school. 34 What’s wrong in this picture? INDUSTRIAL ARTS Mr. Donald Hale, Mr. Donald Gearan. INDUSTRIAL ARTS Amid whirling motors, resounding hammers, smashed thumbs, unpacked packages, unassembled machines, and the scratchings of soft pencils and T squares, Mr. Gearan and Mr. Hale reigned supreme.

Never has the adage, “Music hath the charm to sooth wild beasts,” been more evident then at the various assemblies and concerts where the orchestra has charmed Weston High students. Another favorite of the Muses are the choirs which appear with the orchestra in both the Christmas and Spring Concerts. The choirs sung with¬ out sheet music and pitch pipe which re¬ quired a great deal of strenuous practice and conducting. The orchestra brought pleasure to not only Weston but also to other towns in the form of exchange concerts. E PERIOD CHOIR ROW I: E. Fitzgerald, R. DufTy, E. Anderson, L. Navarro, S. Brown, J.

The social activity which the students managed to work into the blueprint of their high school lives was indeed furious, consuming more time than perhaps their studies.

SPRING FORMAL 1961 The Junior Prom, Sayonara, proved many things, mainly, that contrary to the opinion of many well-informed cynics, the class of 1952 could be united to do some¬ thing constructive and that water plus wood equals warp. Perhaps the most lasting memories of the prom will be the frantic study hall periods spent in the construc¬ tion of the decorations and the laughter and depression when something went right and when something went wrong. But all seemed worthwhile when the triumphant class of ' 62 transformed from paint bespattered gargoyles to ladies and gentlemen and danced away the evening amidst ‘ahs’ of praise. The Grand March. 45 Don’t move! Typical Cheerleader FALL SOCIAL EVENTS Football was the catalyst for most of the social even ts of the fall. People assembled before the game for the pep rally socialized during the game, and congratulated each other after the game. Over seven hundred jammed the first night rally in Weston’s history. If the enthusiasm of that night could have won the Wayland game, Weston would have. The success of the Cheerleaders’ Dance could be attributed to the fact that the girls asked the boys. The local talent of the Vibratones was the high¬ light of the Sophomore Dance. The Saturday night Canteens afforded excellent es¬ cape from what could have been duller Saturday nights. 46 Il I i ! “C’mon now, yell!” All those for Weston, stand up and shout. I I I 47 Twisting twins. An exciting chess game. WINTER SOCIAL EVENTS The fashionable Senior Sociables, when boys wore tuxe- dores and the girls wore forinals, but danced in stocking feet, was the highlight of the winter social season. Twist¬ ing and ping pong playing were ways in which the stu¬ dents wanned themselves at winter Canteens. For the more mentally athletic there was chess. Students also socialized before classes, between classes, after classes, and sometimes even during classes. Christmas Senior Sociable. Energetic game. Twist away! Siicializing after school. 49 The underclasses could be distinguished from each other by such interpreted blueprints as the locker and homeroom areas, the assembly seating chart, and the class cards. Freshmen gathered in the math and sci¬ ence wing, sat in the back seats during assemblies, and carried elementary courses. The sophomores had the most accordionized schedule, which kept them wondering where the n ext class would be. They shared the second floor lockers and homerooms with the juniors. The class cards of the juniors were filled with courses required by their prospective colleges and vocations. All the underclassmen were distin¬ guished by the development of their growing ideas and talents which went far beyond their program of studies and their physical position in the school.

Freshmen were frightened by the sophomores, accepted with reservation by the juniors, ignored by the seniors, and loved by themselves. For the first time in their blissful lives they were exposed to the adult world and were allow ed to pass within the mystifying portals of Weston High. They soon discovered that there was nothing magical about being buried under mounds of books. HOMEROOM 19 ROW 1. P Engl.md H .MacKinlosh. T. Holtby. C. Johnson. M Lindslry. S. }{t strrinan I). Lcr.

Most freshmen had to work their way around the world in 180 days with Mr. Marotta, transport themselves to mythical English class, and solve simultnaeous equations in Algebra. Twice a week they attended orientation sessions where they were indoctrinated in how to win friends, influence people, and make good grades. Survix al of this year brought them one step closer to their goal, maturity. HO.MLROOM 12 ROW I: M. White, V. Teleki. M. Woodside L. Smith, S. le.ttmen, P. Waters, K. VanNostrand, J. Wikstrom.

A sophomore could be described as one who loved la facile vie and disliked homework, report cards, and Monday mornings. They patiently fathomed geometric theorems, logically proved congruent and isosceles triangles, and squinted into microscopes to view their fascinating ancestors. Biologists whose hands reeked perpetually with formaldehyde could sympathize with Lady Macbeth. IIO.MFKOO.M . ' ll ' l R() i I: .1 Lau, .1. M.irMlllan. . 1. Kuiprrs, S.

The extent of the sophomore social activities was the football dance, which boldly introduced the “twist” and the “Hava.” They also were noted for their genuine school spirit exhibited at all the sports events. Sophomores sometimes suffered from being the “middle child.” The newness of high school was gone but they were still far from the top of the totem pole. HO.MEROOM 214 ROW . P. k.-.d. N.

Junior year was a year of mixed emotions, nausea in Chemistry Lab., Huckle¬ berry Hound in Algebra 2, Presidents of the United States, and accordion plans with Mr. Hatch’s ham acting. The class was noted for its assortment of egg-heads who could usually be found casually browsing through ivy-league catalogues and seeing Mr. Carini for test results— S.A.T’s and National Merit Exams, of course!

Palmgren, During the last month the magic word was “career.” Everyone tried to think of a suitable one for himself. The first time the juniors got socially organized was for the spectacular Junior Promenade. Keeping up with the seniors, so that they would be ready to take their seats in the auditorium on Class Day, was the junior class ' main objective. Worthy or not, they were the new occupants. 1 ' ’V ' vrfjyl 1 JH r 1 ' ' 4 1 n i Bi3 11 --a ■ 1 1 HOMEROOM 205 ROH .• G. Navarro, . . SurcUe, S. V’ogt, L. Stantial. (.. Sloan, C. .Sooy, 1). Winsor.

CANDIDS 61 I No one would have thought that the Senior Class would emerge as splendidly as it did from the chry¬ salis stage of the ninth, tenth and eleventh grade. In such a class of individuals it was easy to get opinions, difficult to get agreements, and almost impossible to get volunteers. Although the individuality of the class sometimes made organization frustrating, the contributions made to the school by individuals will be remembered as the outstanding characteristic of the class. In times of need the class did work together and remained undefeated for the last three field days. They left the blueprint of their achievements as a challenge to future classes.

In trying to win and to be a good sport at the same time, the player experienced glory, esteem, hard-felt sat¬ isfaction, defeat, and frustration, emotions which were shared by spectators as well. Exul¬ tation amid cheers of the crowd and the icy stab of silence were all part of the game. Whether the player scored or received a mouth¬ ful of mud, he had at least learned to endure. S PO RTS FOOTBALL Go-Captains P. French and B. Rizzo. The Wildcats scratched out a 7—2 record, which was the highest record in a decade and one of the best in Wes¬ ton’s history. For fans and players alike the season was an exciting one. Fur be¬ gan to fly early in the year when Wes¬ ton held Lynnfield to their lowest leasfue score. Next the team crawled o over a powerful Westwood line. In the Thanksgiving game with Wayland, the Wildcats won everything but the tur¬ key. Reasons for the teams success were great individual play, team effort and spirit, and Coach Harris’s shrewd tac¬ tics. Lowcuts were also helpful. ji| ifeSl BS SBSR mmwmm VARSITY FOOTBALL ROW 1: R.

Among the year’s accomplishments were perfect scores of 15 in two meets, a respectable showing at the Massachusetts State Championship Meet, and a second place in a triangular meet with Newton North and South.

FIELD HOCKEY Often the moon rose over the hockey field in the fall and shone on frozen figures scurrying from “late hockey practice.” Because there was only one returning veteran, Darleen DeNapoli, hours of practice were necessary to strengthen the inexperienced team. Following Miss Butera’s coaching to “Be Aggressive,” the varsity emerged with a 6—2—2 record. Credit goes to the forward line led by high scorers, Michele Tor- nabene and Pam Herring, and the goalie, Lois Smith. Miss Butera and the co¬ captains left the farewell party early for showers.

BOYS’ BASKETBALL With the all-round talents of co-captains Art King and Bud Foster and the defensive strength of the senior players, this year’s basketball team gave Weston an exceptional season’s record of 15-2. Two back-to-back, three-point losses to Westwood and Lynnfield deprived them of the Dual Country League Championship. The greatest reward of the season was two sweet victories over their arch-rival, Wayland. In the opening round of the Tech Tour¬ ney, Weston lost to Falmouth 49-47 in the last eight seconds of jday.

After late spring tryouts, the cheerleaders began practic¬ ing their cheers in June and continued through the summer. By the fall they were eager to cheer at the first football game despite the eighty-degree heat. Their enthusiasm, out done only by that of Mrs. Czarnowski, their advisor, never waned and burst anew during the basketball season. They somehow found time to put on a food sale and two successful Twirp dances. CHEERLEADERS: ROW 1: A. Griffin, R. Duffy, A. Ford, E. FitzGerald. ROW 2: S. Rizzo, J. Law, B. Downing, capt; L.

A new lineup started almost every game because of absences due to flu and ofif-the-court injuries. After suffering two early defeats, the plays began to click, and any combina¬ tion proved successful. The games were exciting to the spec¬ tators, members of the team and their mothers, since often the team came from behind to win. Most valuable players were co-captains Ellen Rayner and Ann Molan. The most esteemed coach was Miss Butera. The .IV team turned in an undefeated record for the season, and will send up good “material” for next year’s varsity Perfect form. 98 V J-v 21-47 Wayland 10- 3 27-38 Wayland 24-15 50-32 Westwood 14-12 21-28 Concord 20- 3 40-32 Newton South 20- 8 51-17 Newton North 16-13 24-19 Regional 11- 9 25-25 Dedham 19- 8 17-15 Dana Hall 32-26 40-36 Cambridge 18- 6 Jump, Ann jump.

Supervised by Mr. Roche, the all star team lost a close battle with Rivers, 2-1. In intramural hockey Peter Pollock’s team skated into first place followed by the teams of Gay Teleki, Bob Aker, and Russ Hills. I’ve got it. Darlcen (leofl Chirkie Sue H. Ellen (lirl Scouts 1955 Louie Trampoline expert - ■f ' - --i YEARBOOK STAFF I’he staff was a lieterogeneous group of frustrated artists and over-worked minions. They courageously attempted to turn hectic afternoons and Saturday morning work periods into effective sessions for revamping 3r’s, sorting pictures, and facing up to dead¬ lines. A sense of accomplishment, however, was felt by the staff when the 3r’s were mailed and the proofs returned. The most amazing aspect of the book was that students realized that they had the stamina and the patience to accept the responsibilities of producing a yearbook. Often we thought that this could never be done, but we did it! Hard at work. YEARBOOK STAFF: ROW 1: Miss Deisher, advisor, S. Capps, J. McKenzie, T. McGetti-. gan, P. Comeau, J. Eaton, B. Downing, J.

The mere statistics fail to re¬ veal that the team lost four of those seven games by one run including a one-hitter by Larry Leonhardt. Among the highlights of the season was an exciting 4-2 victory- over Wayland, which knocked our neighbors out of tournament contention. The J-V‘s also played well and gave reason for high hopes for the future. J ' B. SEB. LL: R )H ' I: E. DeCn-sta. 1). Brush, J. Sunbfire. J. Richards, B Laz ari, I) Wilson, B. Bi LT.ardus. 1).

The Weston team, consisting mostly of underclassmen, played games against schools such as Wellesley and Cambridge School. Although the girls were completely green, they managed to hold Cambridge School to only 7 points in a hard fought 7-5 game. Weston also played host to the national meeting of the Women’s Lacrosse Association. L.XGRGSSE: ROW I: E. FitzGerald, R. Duffy, P. Flagg, G. Graham, E. Rand. S. Rcvotskie, R. Loughner, D.

In league play Wes¬ ton’s fleetest Wildcats lost only to powerful Westwood and a controversial decision to Bedford. They easily crushed all other opposition. At the State Relays, the Weston mile relay team took second place, edged out by powerful Fairhaven on a time basis. Down to the wire. The Coaches: Mr. Harris and Miss Butera. Mass Calisthenics FIELD DAY Field Day, 1962, was the usual hot, sunny day which extracts grumbling, sweat and good performances from the participants. There was plenty of all three as the class of ’62 swept to its third victory in a row. The seniors showed strength in all areas including the almost traditional breaking of the tug-of-war rope before it could be used. The juniors, in a creditable showing, marked themselves as next year’s team to win while the sophomores and the freshmen trailed behind. Vh i ran tie a kni t . Srissnrs Superman J t The arrival of spring brought with it a large in¬ crease in social activities. Books were used less fre¬ quently, and dusty old excuses were once more brought forth with the hope of covering for neglected work. The yearbook masquerade and the junior prom high¬ lighted the spring activities. June was party month, and for those who were determined, it became a round of festivities.

Originally prepared for the state drama festival, J.B. had five per- lormances in Weston before it finally got to the festival. They won the state title and took a first place at the New England contest in New Hampshire. All who saw the play will remember it as one ol the finest high school j roduc- tions they have ever seen. r ! “Show me my guilt.” “A girl has to know. . VARIETY SHOW I ' he opening night of Club 62 was an unparalleled suc¬ cess with a wide variety of acts playing before a full house. Weston’s first night spot offered entertainment of high moral quality and a delicious cuisine, all at a very moder¬ ate cover charge. Unfortunately, Club 62 folded after one performance. Darleen ? “Oh, what a bloody mess! Anyone hungry? Our dignified faculty. Energetic ? SENIOR ACTIVITIES As usual, senior week was a round of parties, both planned and “spontaneous, with a liberal intermixture of exams for effect. The festivities, designed to celebrate our first intellectual emancipation, includ ed the usual outing and yearbook ])arty, a howling beatnik party and a pool party. The unsanctioned activities were too nu¬ merous to mention, but everyone was certainly surprised to find a traffic jjattern in the courtyard on graduation — Monday morning. 5 - Happy Alumni. GRADUATION Left, heel, right, heel. . . Tlie new high school auditorium, packed to the rafters with families and friends, was the scene of the graduation exercises of the class of 1962. After the ceremony, the class traipsed off to Ten Acres where they twisted, ran football plays, and ca¬ roused until midnight. Following the dance, the class packed themselves into buses for a “mystery ride,” which took them bowling unt il the wee hours on the new born day. Then the class ate breakfast and entertained themselves by impresonations of familiar people. At 7 o’clock,, the buses arrived in front of the high school and fi ' e- score weary graduates tumbled off in a heap. “There’s a place for us.’’ 4 soci i- STUVtES SOOtAL t ■ i- .t-. «■ ' 5- ■ • ' -, ‘ ' ' Ht , ; r tV- ■,fliiSn‘=--- - ■ ■ «f ■� � L ■ j,; ■■■ ■ ' i.‘ -J • «) t
