Abstract
New photometric observations of 31 Euphrosyne, 76 Freia, 196 Philomela, 218 Bianca, 291 Alice, 376 Geometria, and 5702 Morando carried out at Pic du Midi Observatory (France) and in Ostrowik (Poland) in 1994 are presented. The preliminary pole and shape determinations of 218, 291, and 376 are presented. New lightcurves of 31 and 196 allowed us to recalculate values for its poles, shapes, and sidereal periods. The first lightcurve of 5702 allowed us to estimate its synodical period.

A.K. thanks J.-E. Arlot and F. Colas for allowing her to observe at Pic du Midi Observatory. A part of this work was performed by T.M. during his stay at the JPL, where he held a Fulbright Scholarship. This work was partly supported by Bureau des Longitudes, Centre International des Etudiants et Stagiaires, Paris, and the Polish Grant KBN 2 P03D 024 09.
