DEDICATION We can not play our concluding roles Without a Word of thanks to Miss Mary M. Mullin. We feel it a privilege to dedicate this book to one whose guidance has meant so much to the progress of Sullivan and to the graduates of the class of nineteen hundred thirty-seven.

AN N PROLOGUE - d SULLW RN S' W- RAMA, chosen as the motif of the NAVILLUS for '37, conveys, We feel, deep significance in rela- tion to the traditional atmosphere of our fondly cherished alma-mater, Roger C. Sullivan High School. Pervading familiar corridors, classrooms,-indeed, in every brilliant phase of Sullivan's daily routine are the charming reflections of both the transcending artis- tic perfections of a romantic bye-gone age, and the vibrant affairs of cosmopolitan interest found upon every humanly adorned scene presented by this pro- gressive generation. Sullivan's architectural style, a living manifesta- tion of Tudor Art which flourished during that richest period of dramatic intellectual and material expansion -the magnificent Elizabethan Age-is exquisitely deco- rative: in beauty, alone surpassed by the legions of sparkling faces thronging its memorable halls. Curtain calls before the eyes and ears of Tomor- row's world are coveted by everyone in dazzling pre- views of coming features-experiences awaiting us in mature years. Yet, who has failed to perceive that even now, as we stand in the Wings of this great stage, we are applauded for the depth, the adroit excellence of our individual characters? Therefore, let the stars among you shine out with lustrous splendor! And now, invoking all Muses-we present for your pleasure the NAVILLUS for '37.
