It is indeed an honor and a privilege to present this address. The significance of this evening will long be remembered as an important event in the course of our lives, for it represents the completion of nine years of study, recreation and companionship.
As we look back over the years, we may smile, as we think of the problems and experiences which confronted us. They may have seemed unconquerable at the time, however, as author Arthur Guitermann implies, "Time changes all things." Therefore, what seemed unsurmountable then, is now, a mere recollection of the past.
We may recall the days when we entered school for the first time. We were cast into a new world of pencils, books and more books. It was also here that we experienced the disciplinary action of the teachers, finding them somewhat similar to that of our parents. It was in this "Ace of Innocence", that small problems seemed overwhelmingly difficult and we often wondered if ever, we would grow up. Thus a period of six years came to an end.
We were, perhaps, sad in our farewell to elementary school and in leaving comfortable habits. This only presented temporary worries, however, for the prospect of attending a larger school, meeting new friends and acquiring greater knowledge, remained constantly in our minds.
This oeriod has now come to a close and we must look to the future in the anticipation of attaining new heights and in overcoming the difficulties which may arise.
Now, as we look around this hall, seeing all these happy and proud faces, it leaves us with sadness, knowing that some of us will not be here in. the future. This is softened somewhat, since each of us has a worthwhile purpose to fulfill in life.
We must also consider and be thankful for the love and affection of our parents and the constant guidance of the teachers, who, in their efforts helped us to further our schooling.
Thus, it is in this state of mind that I wish to congratulate you, and wish you all the "best in the years to come. Let us all be prepared to use what we have gained to make this world of ours a better place in which to live.
Horst Weber.Grade Nine Graduation Banquet and Dance
This year’s graduation banquet started off punctually at 6:30 with the march of the graduands followed by 0 Canada, and grace by Mike Brown. A delicious cold plate meal was served. About half way through the first course we listened to a very enjoyable trumpet solo by Robert Hall. Heather Emery then proposed a toast to the school board followed by a reply from Mr. E.J. Kipp. The next item on the program was a vocai solo by Gloria Rogers and a toast was proposed by Gladys Brassard to the Parent's Association. The reply was by Mr. Walker, the president of the association. The next entertainer was Willard Roelofs with a clarinet solo. Ken Enander proposed a toast to the teaching staff to which Mr. Charnetski reolied. Donna Huber sang a solo followed by Mr. Thorlacius with a toast to the graduands. Horst Weber delivered a very interesting valedictory address after which the chairman, Pat Bartlett ore- se.nted Mr. Turner with a picture from the 1960-61 graduating class. Mr. Turner then gave a talk about the method by which 'Winston Churchill is run. The chairman then officially declared the banquet as closed. A dance followed at the L.C.I. beginning at 9:00 and ending at 12:00. The dance was attended by the graduands from Paterson, Hamilton and Churchill and the Playland Orchestra was in attendance. Flowers were presented to Mrs. Kioo, Mrs Kyle and Mrs. Bussara.

This year has proven to be a year of disappointment for our senior boy's basketball team. Although we didn't win a championship spot, we have learned how to be good losers. Mainly because we don't know what it's like to be the winners.
Thanks to Mr. Doram, we were able to have a team this year, and put up a good fight at times. His own basketball exoerience has been, and wiii, be a great asset to us. Only through his determination will we be able to have a good ball team. Next year, he will make this school oroud of the senior boy's basketball team.

Senior Boy's Basketball
Junior Boy's Basketball
The Junior Boy's Basketball team has a successful season considering the fact that they are a first year team. Although greatly outplayed in some games, the team managed third place in the league standings, a . few ooints ahead of Paterson. The boys were at their best during the last half of the season.
However, they lost their semi-final games to St. Francis. Under the excellent coaching of Mr. McCormick, the team played very well.

Senior Girl's Basketball
The runners and uniforms of the Girl's Basketball team have been locked away and their traditional good luck charms have been put away until next season. The basketball trips and all the practices of the past few months, have become a fond memory. Winston Churchill High School's first year in comoetitive Senior "B" Girl's Basketball has come to a close.
The Girl's Team was credited with one victory throughout the season. We can truly say that they tried very hard, showed great determination and took defeat in their stride. The idea behind comoetitive snorts is to bring about better sportsmanship for the oarticioants and it takes more of a show of good sportsmanship to lose a game than to win one.
Winston Churchill has a first year basketball team that any school would be proud of. We realize our team has great ootential and next year with more practice and the additional experience gained from this year, we hope to be very successful. Hr. Hiatt, the team's coach, deserves a snecial thanks, as he Dut in a great deal of time and effort towards shaping the foundation for a championship team.
We'd like to thank the giris who played on this year's team and helped to make Churchill's debut into competitive sports a steeping stone to a brighter outlook for next year. We wish the following team the best of luck and hope that they can hit the basket more often than we did.

Winston Smith, translator
No full textNeste ensaio, desenvolvo reflexões sobre aspectos da atividade tradutoria a partir de alguns temas presentes na construção da personagem central do romance, Winston Smith, e seu trabalho no Ministério da Verdade. Dessa reflexão constam ideias relativas a natureza hermenêutica do ofício e à comunicabilidade como trânsito intelectual e afetivo, ambos postos em xeque sob o advento da Novilingua.In this essay, the author takes a look over aspects of translation activity through reflection on themes embedded in the making of Winston Smith, the major character of Orwell\u27s Nineteen Eighty Four, and his role as a worker in the Ministry of Truth. Thus, the author grapples with ideas concerning the hermeneutics of translation and the amalgamation of affective, political and intellectual issues regarding translation, all of them put into jeopardy in the novel under the advent of Newspeak language.  
Winston Broadfoot
No full textThis 1966 photograph taken by photographer Juanita Wilson shows Winston Broadfoot (1920-1985) speaking at the 18th Annual Mountain Youth Jamboree. Winston Broadfoot was the Director of the George Washington Flowers Memorial Collection of Southern Americana at Duke University Library in Durham, North Carolina. Founder and director of the Mountain Youth Jamboree, Hubert H. Hayes (1901-1964) auditioned and directed youth to perform in folk dance, music, and folk and ballad singing. The jamboree was held in the Asheville City Auditorium (now known as Thomas Wolfe Auditorium) from 1948 to 1973, and Hayes’ wife, Leona Trantham Hayes (1913-1989) continued to direct the program after his death in 1964. Hubert Hayes was an author, playwright, and alumni of Duke University
Detection of Cognitive Features from Web Resources in Support of Cultural Modeling and Analysis
No full textThe World Wide Web serves as a valuable source of culture-relevant information, which can be used to support cultural modeling and analysis activities. Part of the challenge in exploiting the Web as a source of culture-relevant information relates to the need to detect and extract information about beliefs, attitudes, and values from a variety of different resources. The Web thus features a rich variety of information resources, and these are seldom categorized with respect to the dimensions in which cultural analysts are interested. Exploiting the Web as a source of culture-relevant information therefore requires techniques and approaches that enable cultural analysts to extract relevant information and organize extracted content in various ways. In this paper, we outline an approach to assist cultural analysts in the extraction and organization of relevant information. We show techniques that can be used to extract information about the attitudes, beliefs, and values of individuals, and how this data can, in turn, be used to support cultural modeling and analysis
Three Kentucky Artists: Troye, Hart, Price
No full textThe three artists whose lives are the subjects of Three Kentucky Artists—Joel Tanner Hart, Samuel Woodson Price, and Edward Troye—enjoyed considerable fame in their own day, though they are now little known outside of Kentucky. Each made a lasting contribution to the social and cultural life of central Kentucky in the nineteenth century. J. Winston Coleman, Jr. sketches the careers and relationships of the artists who played significant roles in the history of the Commonwealth.
J. Winston Coleman, Jr. is the author of numerous books and articles on Kentucky history, including Slavery Times in Kentucky and Bibliography of Kentucky History.https://uknowledge.uky.edu/upk_history_of_art_architecture_and_archaeology/1000/thumbnail.jp
Speeding, Spending, and Sponsors: Tourism and the NASCAR Winston Cup Experience
No full textThis article provides an overview of the NASCAR Winston Cup Series and an analysis of how stock car racing has become a focal point for tourism in the region around Charlotte, North Carolina. The article examines how businesses have capitalized on the loyalty and financial strength of Winston Cup race fans by making themselves spin-off attractions connected loosely to the sport of stock car racing.
Evidence to support claims made in this article comes from the author\u27s fieldwork within the Charlotte-based Winston Cup community. This includes observations made by the author during the summer of 1997 while in North Carolina promoting his new book on NASCAR racing. The article strives to explain how professional sport can be treated as a form of cultural tourism, and how racing fans look beyond the speedway for ways to enjoy their leisure time and spend their disposable income
Conceptualising the role of evaluation systems in markets: the case of dominant evaluators
No full textEvaluation is usually an internalized process that is intrinsic to the activities of market actors. Producers evaluate what goods to produce, intermediaries such as distributors and retailers evaluate what goods to promote and stock, while consumers evaluate what goods to buy. In some cases, however, a secondary evaluation market controlled by an external evaluator can emerge as a de-facto gatekeeper exerting a powerful influence over the activities of market actors in the primary market. This article develops a conceptual model of external evaluation that describes: (i) the factors common to primary markets that are dominated by evaluation markets; (ii) the characteristics common to dominant evaluators and their evaluation markets; and (iii) the dynamic processes through which an evaluator can become entrenched in a position of dominance over other market actors. This conceptual model is illustrated through examples drawn from three dominant evaluators and the markets they dominate
