I aan very. pleased With the look_of this

brochure here at Blyth and so it was
especially important to the that it look just
right. I, particularly like the extra emphasis
given to the plays and playwrights. this
year." . .
The brochure 'was designed by Karen
Fletcher, a graphic designer employed by
the University of Waterloo Arts Centre: she
also designed the 1985 and 1986, brochures
and posters. The drawing on the front cover
is a detail froni the season poster, showing
the Blyth Memorial Hall. (Our apologies to
historians and architect's for the artistic'
'license used in placing the Hall, built in 1920,
in an earlier period.
'The, illustration for the 1987 poster is taken
from an. engraving in the 1.879 Historical
Atlas of Huron County and shotit's part of the
farm belonging at that time to Elizabeth
Southcombe. in.Hullett Township. The land
was purchased from the Southcombes early
in the century by the Hoggart family. A
grandson, Clinton resident Ivan Hoggart,
lived there until a few years ago. The same
farm house depicted in the poster is still
standing; and is currently owned by Mr: and
Mrs. Neil Salverda. Of the two barns shown
