Selecting multiple photos in iPhoto

After reading through a number of previous posts (dating back to 2003) and trying a bunch of examples myself, I still can't select multiple photos in iPhoto 5. I'm importing photos into an existing album, and I want to select only the photos I just imported.

I can select one photo:
1. select (photos whose name is "MyPhoto23")

I can select a whole album full of photos:
2. select (every photo of album myAlbum)

But I can't select a subset of an album. (I am an AppleScript newbie, however.) None of the following work:

3. select (every photo in album myAlbum whose name is in newFilesTitles)

4. set photosToSelect to {}
repeat with currentPhoto in (every photo of album myAlbum)
if (currentPhoto's name as string) is in newFilesTitles then
set the end of photosToSelect to currentPhoto display dialog currentPhoto's name
end if
end repeat
select (photosToSelect)


5. set photosToSelect to (every photo of album myAlbum)
  select (photosToSelect)

6. set photosToSelect to (every photo of album myAlbum)
  select (every photo in list photosToSelect)

To my newbie eyes, #2 and #5 or #6 should be the same thing, but only #2 works. So, how do I select a range of photos that match the photo names that I have in a list?

Thanks.
