ADMINISTRATION AND FACULTY

We dedicate the 1961 Murivian to you, DR. ALBERT SHEPARD, because in an era where idealism is often subordinated to materialism, you represent an ideal — that of the true scholar. Your high standards for our scholastic achievement have been an inspiration to us, giving us an incentive for extra effort not only in Latin but also in every other subject. You have helped us to consider Latin literature as the ever-interesting expression of the ideas of people who, though they lived many centuries ago, had problems and prejudices strikingly like ours. You have always been ready to help and encourage struggling students, giving them a desire to mas- ter puzzling constructions in order to enjoy the ideas which they express. For these things, and for all the things you have said and done which have en- riched our lives, we dedicate our yearbook to you. Dr. Shepard, with deep affec- tion and heartfelt gratitude. 4

School Committee Row 1: Mr. Robinson, Mrs. Pinanski, Dr. Kendrick (Chairman), Dr. Caverly (Superintend- ent), Mrs. Peabody, Miss Macdonald (Assistant Superintendent). Row 2: Dr. Frechette, Miss O’Brien (Secretary), Dr. Trilling, Mr. Carle, Mr. Burr, Mrs. Burack. The generous effort of the School Committee is large- ly responsible for Brookline’s smoothly operated school system and for its high academic and personal standards. Its interest in new educational developments which might improve Brookline High School is demonstrated by such reforms as the ability grouping plan and by its efforts to attract able teachers to our school system. Although most of us aren’t fortunate enough to have personal contact with these people, we all recognize and appreciate their selfless service to us and our commu- nity. Dr. Ernest R. Caverly Dr. Thomas Kendrick M iss Ann E. Macdonald 6
