Just You 'N Me On the 22 of May, 1975 the senior class sponsored its Senior Class Prom. The evening began with a social hour from 7 to8 -during which couples mingled with frie nds, faculty, and other guests. A full course dinner featuring prime ribs of beef followed. Host and hostess Miss Kathy Perron and Mr. William McBride were present to watch over the festivities. The enormous crowd of approximatly 300 couples, made for the largest prom in Cathedral’s history. The enthusiastic couples danced the night away to the dynamic sound of “Thundermug”. Unlike previous class gatherings, the atmosphere of the Prom had a formal flavor due to the elegant dress of all present. The many couples enjoyed this traditional and truly memorable affair.

Through The Looking Glass Coming together to worship for the last time, the senior class, surrounded by relatives and friends, shared bread and wine at the traditional Baccalaureate Mass. Two unique slide presentations chronicling the past and projecting into the future highlighted the celebration. Specially chosen songs accentuated the theme, ‘Through the Looking Glass”’, as well as readings given by Martha Harrington, Mary Guay, Roger Talbot, Marty Woytych, Chris Darsigny, and Frank Fragomeni. A special Kiss of Peace as well as communion under both species gave the mass an added reverence.
