About three, since that was how long it took the Mother-Son communion Breakfasts to reach all school status. Unlike the first two, this one was open to freshmen and sophomores as well, making attendance the largest so far. The morning began with a Mass. The principal celebrant was Fr. Bohr and the lesuit faculty served as concelebrants. After Mass, breakfast was served. Considering the reputation of other Prep breakfast events for unpalatable food, most people found the fare enjoyable. During the meal, a short program took place. lt was led off by an invocation by Fr. Kenney and was followed by an address about mothers by leff Searl. Closing remarks and benediction were given by Fr. Sullivan. Fr. Mullen was MC. Credit and thanks went out to the women who organized the event: Diane Laughlin, Beverly Murray, and Ann Tomcykowski. Another new event brought the spotlight on Prep students and their moms: The Mother-Son Dinner Dance tnicknamed the morn promwi, held on Valentines Day Eve in the Peony Park Ballroom. After dinner, the lights were dimmed and soon all were dancing to tunes which ranged from Frank Sinatra to Michael lackson. While some mothers refused to dance, others had the trouble of getting their sons to dance, so towards the end of the evening many women found themselves tangoing, polka-ing, or breakdancing with someone other than their son. Halftime entertainment was provided C.P. by groups made up of members from all tour classes. The sophomores chose a skit that not many people could figure out, the only redeeming quality of which was a harmonica solo by Bill Hoover. The juniors brought the Raoul Rodriguez Show from the gym floor to the dance floor. A reluctant Pr. Sullivan was used to demonstrate a magic trick in this take-off on HThe Tonight Show The seniors gave an example of the typical Mother-Son Driving Lesson, complete with screams, gasps, and threats. The entire school benefited, either directly or indirectly, from the dance. Classes were put on a late start schedule the following day, allowing both mothers and sons to rest after an exciting evening. The Mom Prom was a success and certainly did serve its purpose of uniting Prep families.
