"The New Americans: 
Island of Assimilation"

 

6 of 10

"HIDE AND SCREAM" As children will do, despite the chill in the air, no one wore coats outside Sunday afternoon in Hartford as they played hide and seek an apartment complex near Wethersfield Ave. For the first time in many weeks a full weekend of sunshine prompted many to shed their winter coats and bound outside the Spring-like weather. These kids, nearly a score of them played hide and seek, then conspired to rush Meliha Dervisevc, 11 all at once who could not shout out their names fast enough to catch them from touching, 'home,' she screamed in delight at the boys maneuver. The boys who lunged at the 'home'' she guarded were Dino Turmac, 10 (center) Edis Agic, 7 (next to her touching the building), and sitting on the grass having wiped-out on his way to 'home,' was munir Dervisevc,12. Around the complex, kids played soccer, jump rope and this game of 'hide and seek,' to pass the Sunday afternoon.
