Crowley SCRIPT FACULTY MODERATORS DANCES FEES Brother Alexius Joseph Brother Nelson Brother Quentin COORDINATOR Brother Evangelus All characters in this book are true and living men. They are the men who make Malden Catholic. Their deeds while bordering on the fictional side are amply portrayed thru the never erring lens of modern photography. Any resemblance to fictional characters is purely coincidental and no mockery or belittling is intended to these fantasies of fic¬ tional creations. Malden Catholic men are real, live, adventurous and beyond the realms of fiction. Their deeds are true and stellar. Records have been made and always will be made by Malden Catholic men because Malden Catholic men have what it takes. , Brother Walstan, C. F. X ‘Dedication The Senior Class of Malden Catholic 1948 happily and sorrow¬ fully dedicate this volume of the “Hi-Way” to Brother Walstan, C. F. X. We happily dedicate this mortal tribute to Brother Walstan because we wish to show our appreciation for the enthusiasm that he has indelibly stamped on our religious, scholastic, and athletic character formation. Personally instigated and personally polished by Brother Wal¬ stan are the following extra-curricular activities: the “Hi-Liters”, the school’s social orchestra, which is a source of pride to all who are interested in Malden Catholic; the “Hi-Way”, this actual record which will bring back memories in future years; the Varsity Bas¬ ketball team which blossomed into resplendent glory by reaching the semi-finals in the New England Catholic Tournament of 1947. His regular assignment as a religious teacher stands without comment. He was counsellor, teacher, leader and friend to all. Our sorrow in this tribute is great. We, Seniors, no longer felt the immediate radiance of his possessive personality as we fearfully treaded our way thru this difficult year, but the continued per¬ formance of his various projects softened our sadness and censured our selfishness. Memory is a powerful stimulant; and we know that we will frequently recall the days of his happy presence in our midst when the future unfolds its difficulties while we Catholically battle our way along the obstacled course of Christian living as the antidote to the satanic and temporal onslaughts. To you, Brother Walstan, we say thanks. May God continue to grant His special blessings to you in all your undertakings. Rt. Rev. John J.

We knew that we would have a new headmaster and this caused us our share of doubts and fears as we successfully closed our Junior Year. Ours was this double burden — lordly seniors and a new head¬ master. However, September’s opening day solved our doubts and changed our fears. Without pomp or circumstance Brother John Edward addressed us manfully at the opening assembly. We sat, we listened and we learned that Malden Catholic will always be Malden Catholic be cause we students are Malden Catholic. And with filial fear and respect we cheered our happy lot:— we were to be the first graduating class of this great leader. Brother Alexius Joseph, C.F.X.

The team’s goal for this season was the Class B State Title. Pre-season speculating was grand, but adverse circumstances upset our dreams. John Bennett, our star left end, was stricken with polio on the eve of the opening game with Medford. Consequently, two games with Class A opponents were cancelled. Head Coach Prior and assistant coach Grant rallied the team to victory in eight of the nine remaining contests. The only loss was to Class A opponent, Leominster, by a score of 7-0. When the points were added up, M. C. was found a fraction out of first place. How¬ ever the team clinched the Catholic League Title for the fourteenth consecutive year. Other happy moments were: John Ben¬ nett’s almost complete recovery, and the nom¬ ination of nine M. C. players to the Catholic All-Star squad in the first Annual Game with the Boston Public Schools All-Star squad. Head Coach John Prior was appointed the director of the Catholic All-Star Team. ill,, ’ — —T ' -a.. F .. Ge -l!iSR mM if .ft !

Despite its elimination in the opening round of the New England Catholic Invita¬ tion Tournament, the 1948 basketeers enjoyed their most successful season in league competi¬ tion in M. C. history. Under the expert guidance of Coach Walter Perry and the in¬ spiring leadership of Captain Bernie Sullivan, the Bluejackets finished second in the final league standings. Included in their string of victories were a win over St. John’s Prep on the Prep court, and an upset league victory over Central Catholic. These were two firsts as far as our quintet is concerned. Non-league tilts and losses were played with 1947 State Champs, Durfee, and upper New Hampshire’s top five, Berlin High. No one player stood out on this year’s quintet, but it was the combined efforts on the well-roun¬ ded team which made the season a success. First Row — L. Morrissey, K. Alves, P. Crow¬ ley, F. Griffin, Capt. B. Sullivan, L. Harring¬ ton, J. Windt, F. Greenleaf. Second Row — Brother Nelson (moderator), H. Delaney, J. Donovan, W. Blackett, A. Sul¬ livan, J. McCullough, R. Sullivan, D. Norton, R. Sainato, Coach W. Perry. M0 Hank McCullough opens the season with a two-point¬ er and the foul in the Gar¬ den Jamboree. St. Mary’s Geo. Graphy is the violator while Welland Strong and Rernie drive for possible as¬ sistance. The team loved to play in the armory. The contests were always driving and heart- threatening. Harrington’s bal¬ let shot actually connected for two points. This type of of¬ fensive ball always made the Bluejackets a terrific threat. Capt. Bernie Sullivan dem¬ onstrates his leadership with this nifty interception in the Cathedral game. A dead shot, Bernie played heads-up ball in every game — offensively and defensive- ly. Sports writers nominated him for “All-Garden” hon¬ ors. The intense rivalry between Mission and Catholic High is famous in met¬ ropolitan Boston. These two teams never consider each other’s record when they meet. M. C. was off to a slow start in this first game but came back strong in the second half and almost won the game. Crowley’s drive-in scoop shot was typ¬ ical of the play. The second Mission game was a ding- dong batde all die way. M. C. led from die start; but Mission, led by Bea¬ ver Power, put on a last minute barrage from mid-court and scored a one point victory. In the picture at the left, Har¬ rington had a good reason for not snag¬ ging the rebound. M. C. was not a run and shoot team. The boys play¬ ed basketball with the head and not by ear. Superior ball handling as demonstrated by Paul Crow¬ ley on the right was the chief reason for M. C.’s successful season. Happy were the Bluejackets when they beat St. John ' s Prep of Danvers for the first time on the loser’s court. An ear¬ ly St. John s lead of eight points net¬ tled the M. C. boys into serious busi¬ ness and from the second quarter on it was M. C. all the way. The photo at the right shows Harrington being hipped out by Lovejoy after letting go with his two-pointer. Balance and power in all positions is again shown by leaping Hank McCul¬ lough who played a commendable buc¬ ket position. Hank could drive, jump, and shoot, and he did in this game with Central. Our great team had a loyal following which cheered their heroes on. In this photo we see them giving out with real joy on Frankie Griffin’s “back to bas¬ ket flip” shot. Having achieved second place in Division One of the Catholic League, the team automatical¬ ly qualified for the New England Catholic Tournament for the second straight year. However, fortune deserted the boys in the sec¬ ond half and the team bowed out in the first round to St. John’s of Worcester. y. V. basketball Junior Varsity basketball under the direc¬ tion of Brother Nelson, who favors “Bluegrass” type of basketball with its fast break and nifty ball handling, started off in winning style. But the bugaboo of coaches — studies and injuries — took the zip away and Brother went back to character formation. The final standings showed a six and six status in the twelve games played. Coach Perry has a happy gleam in his eye as he contemplates J. V. stars: Case, Lavey, Norton, and O’Brien, being up with his var¬ sity next season.

Basketball, once forgotten, is definitely on the upswing at M. C. The junior varsity seasons the underclassmen for future honors. Grenn at first, but ever-willing, these boys are soon able to put on a good show in their own class. Decked out in dazzling white and blue uni¬ forms, the J. V.’s served notice to all teams that M. C. will always be a top contender. The two photos show “Tornado’’ Lavey getting ready to lay up a crip shot above and the same in capturing a rebound to the left. Jack is putting the fundamentals — release the ball high, rebound high — into pleasant use. Mockeu Zriple Champs Catholic League Winners; Metropolitan Boston Titlists; New England High School Champions. These were the successive crowns won by our amazing puckchasers this past winter. Looking back over the season’s rec¬ ords we find that Coach Kenty’s boys rolled up seventeen consecutive victories and extended their phenomenal unbeaten string to include the last thirty-two games. In Bob Wheeler, the Bluejackets possessed New England’s highest scorer. Wheeler aver¬ aged over three points a contest during the reg¬ ular season and he added to his spectacular achievements during the terrific tournament encounters. Co-Capt. Bob Donahue and cen¬ ter Bud Smith, rounded out this brilliarut line. Not only did this pair frequently dent the strings in each game but their harrassing back- checking gave to opposition no end of diffi¬ culty. The second line was sparked by aggressive Co-Captain A 1 Gubbins, the smallest member of the aggregation. What he lacked in size, Gubbie made up for in speed and stick-hand¬ ling finesse. Herm Reboulet centered this line and his accurate passes set up many goals for wings Gubbins and Dick Leary. Back on the blue line we find rugged de¬ fensemen Jack Donelan and Phil LaBonte. Jack, a four year veteran, not only played a consistently steady defensive game but also frequently led five man rushes when the op¬ position was playing shorthanded. LaBonte, immense on defense all season, played his best hockey of the year during the crucial tourna¬ ments tilts. Dumas was the superb goalie. First Row — P. Dumas, H. Reboulet, R. Wheeler, J.

S Zwenty-four Seniors Ma e the fourth Honor Roll Student Retreat Scheduled for March “Stardust Chosen for the Annual Ptau Zke Mnual Ketreat... BENEDICTIO Father Higgins, S. M., concluded each day’s exercises with Benediction The recent victory — such as it is called — of Mrs. McCollum in doing away with religi¬ ous instruction in public schools reminds us seniors once again of the benefits of Catholic Education. We of Malden Catholic have the Xaverian Brothers to impart to us daily the Christian Way of Living, not just for forty-five minutes, but for every moment of our daily lives. Even then, we sadly and shamefully real¬ ize that in spite of this religious environment we sometimes allow familiarity to breed con¬ tempt for our real purpose in life. Annually, as a brake to these worldly in¬ vasions we lay aside our scholastic worries for a whole week and tuin ourselves over to God for a review of our omissions and commissions of the past year. During this time we form new resolutions and formulate better defenses against satanic offenses. Father Higgins of the LaSallette Mission¬ ary Order made it fruitful and pleasant by hav¬ ing us consider this retreat as a half-time rest period during which we listen to the greatest coach of all time — Christ Himself. The numerous daily communicants bore ample testimony to the seriousness that all M. C. men gave to this holy time. Communing All with God With Christ, Our Coach Nothing Without Him HOLY GOD We Praise Thy Name Xhe Sodality of Our Jfady ... The religious side of Malden Catholic is¬ n’t confined to the actual classroom nor is it confined to a few students. The Sodality lists all M.

JUSTIFIABLE PRIDE Charlie Kirschner, Bill Butler, Dick Noonan, Johnny Kenney, and Moderator Brother Michael, avidly view the first 1947-48 issue of the prize winning Hi-Lite. Not content with its accomplishment of winning first place in the Boston Globe com¬ petition the year previous, the “Hi-Lite” strove to attain greater achievements. Because of in¬ creased printing costs and shortages of vital materials the publication was sent to the presses only six times this year. Quality, not quan¬ tity, was the motto of the entire staff and Mod¬ erator Brother Michael. Closely affiliated with the “Hi-Lite” is the now two year old organization, the Gilbert Press Club. During its second year of existence the club completed its constitution, made sever¬ al field trips, and enjoyed numerous social events. The primary purpose of the club is to discover methods to improve the “Hi-Lite”, and to aid the writing of the individual mem¬ bers of the staff. At the club banquet in June, the members granted the first annual award to be given to the boy, who is in their opin¬ ion, the school s outstanding student-athlete. Jack Donelan received this initial award, and Bob Wheeler also was presented with a special citation.

The Hi-Way owes Brother Casimir and the Hi-Liters a very special word of thanks. The costliness of the Hi-Way is not a worry when you have willing performers like these. Their popularity, fame, and sweet harmony drew many to their six performances for the Hi-Way. The tune lovers of dance and dance music never missed an occasion. So much for their musical abilities. The personal sacrifices of these boys were many and great: the Hi-Way used them on holidays; school functions employed them at the banquets, but they never complained even though they are all good dancers and great eaters. The spirit of team play and personal sacri¬ fice dominate the extra-curricular life at M. C., and these boys are magnificent examples of those great qualities.
