PROLOGUE The school year 1946-1947 smiled beneficently upon Boston Latin School and bestowed upon her the bountiful gift of the Graduating Class of ’47. Though the smallest in numbers for years, its members received, individually and collectively, the highest honors in many fields of endeavor. Athletic championships, literary awards, and national scholarships are but a few of its attainments. Its ingenuity and resourcefulness have originated the novel Red Cross Assembly, brought for the first time in the school ' s history the “Medalist Award” to the Register, drawn a widely, wildly acclaimed Class Will and Prophecy, maintained the high stan- dards of the school, and proudly added a wealth of achievement to the three centuries and twelve years of Boston Latin School’s life. It is therefore fitting that the 1947 Liber Actorum should serve as a ready reference to the many memories and reminiscences of our days at B.L.S., and as a monument of appreciation to our Lords and Masters, who patiently and arduously moulded the infancy of our careers. We record for ourselves and posterity the divers acts, deeds, attainments, and awards earned by the Graduating Class. A novel and appropriate style is resorted to in presenting our Year Book, in that an element of coherence is adopted. The theme opens with Alma Mater address- ing words of encouraging advice and opening vistas of opportunities. Continuity is carried through by five characters: Zeus, King of Gods, representing the Faculty, our Administration; Athena, Goddess of Wisdom, and thus naturally depicting the Seniors; Winged Victory, connoting our various victories and Activities; Disco- bolus, symbolizing all Athletics; and finally Apollo, “secretary” to Zeus, typifying Organizations. The editor has earnestly endeavored to have Liber Actorum adequately and vividly portray our scholastic life, to enable each of us to relive the same, in juturo, and to recall the days spent as a happy, carefree group at Boston Latin School.
