Could this be an earthquake or a cataclysm, or the Dramatic Society in rehearsal? Has Frankenstein met the Wolf-Man again? None of these innocent entertainments offer the explanation.— it ' s the august Murivian Committee in quiet, calm conclave. Father Milton, overflowing with sweetness and light, is making polite remarks as to the mental capabilities of the rest of the staff, who reciprocate in kind (they wouldn ' t let us print the polite remarks). Efficiency is the order of the day, and nothing remains lost for more than six months. Above we have tried to present an accurate picture of the inner workings of the Committee which produced this book. Despite the resemblance to Bedlam, long hours of work on the part of the Editorial Staff resulted in the write-ups being writ, the formal photos and candids taken, the Senior Statistics and Who ' s Who tabulated, and the completion of the Murivian. Thanks to the ceaseless efforts of the Business Committee, one of the largest sales ever was bought and paid for by you, the student. This book is for you and about you. Here is the year 1945.

1 1 I A s FOREWORD S CIVILIZATION has progressed, a greater appreciation for the accomplishments of the Greeks and Romans during the Classic Age has developed. The contributions to literature and art during that period are today classified as one of the greatest in the history of man. We students of Brookline High School have become acquainted with many of these contributions in our study of the social sciences, art, and languages, or in their use through the school. Within the last year Greece and Rome have been again liber- ated from oppression and it is believed that many of the great symbols of ancient Greece and Rome have either been destroyed or lost. It is for these reasons that the Murivian Committee of 1945 has chosen to pay tribute to this Classic Age as represented by famous statues of mythological characters, by using it as the theme of the 1945 Murivian. Minerva, the goddess of righteous war and wisdom, representing the war which has so greatly in- fluenced Packard House, is on our cover. Around this classic theme we have organized a book of simplicity whose main pur- pose is to open the gates of Brookline High School and reveal the principles which have for over a century ranked it among the highest educational institutions in the country.
