Brethren, do you not know that those who run in the race, all run indeed, but one recciveth the prize ? So run that you may ob¬ tain it. And everyone that striveth for the mastery refraineth him¬ self from all things; and they indeed, that they may receive a cor¬ ruptible ' crown, but we an incorruptible one. I therefore, so run at it not as an uncertainty; I so fight not as one beating the air; but I chastise my body and bring it unto subjection lest perhaps, when I have preached to others, I myself should become a castaway.

ARTHUR BRIGANDI Aeneid: I Virgil We Pay Honor Zo Mnlden... Three centuries ago a group of English colonists landed in what was then virgin territory, and established the small village of Mystic Side — a hamlet which was to grow into our busy Mal¬ den. Three hundred years is the life span of this part of our contin¬ ent. European civilization has graced these shores only since 1607, when the first English settlers landed on the east coast of America. Therefore in the decades which have passed since our city was founded in 1649, citizens of Malden have witnessed the complete evolution of this great democracy. lUMeiMC: Hr’S ' lNt -Mone wooden nickel t Malden’s Ier«n en y Celehrotisn Mass June i 2 ' t 8 , 1949 S£ CimiUtide of tttturies’ Poorl SI.

BOYD «a rc« Chaimart ffotelnsa C ovasm Zo the late Brother Qilbert To REVEREND BROTHER GILBERT of the Congregation of St. Francis Xavier who went to his reward October 19, 1947 after a fruitful life in the service of the Lord, this book is respectfully dedicated by the Class of 1949. Our Tirst Principal “GOING THEREFORE, TEACH YE ALL NATIONS ...” The world mourned the passing of Brother Gilbert, for the world recog¬ nized him as a man of great worth. In the classroom, preparing mind and soul for the duties of Christian life, and on the athletic field, building sturdy temples for the spirit, this servant of God performed well the duties laid down by his vocation. But it was in another place that he received the power to do his great deeds. A follower of Christ, Brother Gilbert constantly sought out the God- Man in His tabernacle home — there to participate in the Great Sacrifice, there to receive the Son, there to spend long vigils imbibing the Divine Life pouring out from the Eucharist. It was from the chapel that Brother went forth to live the life of a Xaverian Brother: to sanctify himself and to pilot youth in safety and in virtue on the road to eternity; it was from the chapel that his soul winged its way to the bosom of the Trinity. As students in a school which had this exemplary religious as its headmas¬ ter, it behooves us to look back upon the task well done by this institution and to carry with us into a cold world some of the Christ-love generated through our lately beloved Brother Gilbert. f Rt. Rev. John R Fletcher Zo Our Pastor ... We the class of 1949 are deeply grateful to our spiritual leader, Right Reverend John }. Fletcher, pastor of the Immaculate Concep¬ tion Church, Malden. During our few years at Boy’s Catholic High, Monsignor Fletcher has ever been a guide and inspiration to us. From the schools year’s start when he invoked Divine Bless¬ ing on us at the Mass of the Holy Ghost, until the memorable after¬ noon of June 5 when he presented us our long desired diplomas, the Monsignor has shown his deep interest in the Class of 1949. A great backer of any Blue and Gold activity, an ardent advo¬ cate of all things intellectual, a champion of the spiritual. Father kept a kindly eye even on our report cards and rejoiced with us when we made the honor roll. Now that we are graduates, we would like to show Monsignor Fletcher that we greatly appreciate his ceaseless work for us. One final boon we would request of him — that he would frequently present our cause to the Great High Priest in the Divine Office in other prayers and above all, in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. r ; Our Meadmaster Brother John Edward, C. F. X. The 49’ers as the second graduating class of his headmaster- ship at Boy’s Catholic High express our sentiments of gratitude to Brother John Edward, C. F. X., as we leave Malden Catholic. Our early critical and rebellious attitude to his innovations was soon eradicated by the wisdom of his purpose. Because of his fair¬ ness we are indeed fortunate that we came under his jurisdiction and we hope that our earlier contrariness will leave no scar. As principal of Malden Catholic he was always willing to help us Seniors in our problems. Brother John showed that he was a true friend when he said that he will always be for us. This truly is the so much desired genuine expression of teacher-pupil friend¬ ship needed by youth today. It is our fervent hope that in the future we can make Brother John and the school especially proud of us. To Our Faculty, Teachers of High Thoughts and Amiable Words . . . Brother Alexius Joseph, C.

Dear Undergraduates: After having viewed your striking pictures, we, the 49’ers, in the Tercentenary year of this famous city, are firmly assured tha ' t you are better than able to carry the high standards set by us and pre¬ ceding classes. The task will be difficult but we know that you will aim for higher goals and that you will succeed. Remember always that Men of Malden Catholic are true Chris¬ tophers, not only in name but in every action, whether it be in the classroom, on the athletic field or in your own homes. The courageous man is the man who can always do the right thing not because he has to but because he wants to. Filled with this spirit, you of the Class of ’50 especially, will find the way to spiritual and scholastic success much easier. Furthermore, yours is the greater task as you replace us as the leaders of this great school. Finally, we beg that you be true sons of our Blessed Mother and her Sodality. Pray to her faithfully that you may receive from her bounteous graces ah that you need to reach God, the Father, in Eter¬ nal Life. Trustingly Yours in Christ, The Class of 1949 Deeds Not Words Athletic Staff We are justly proud of our athletic staff. These gentlemen not only have brought high honors to Malden Catholic by developing successful teams but also have fulfilled their primary purpose by developing high school youth into real men. Each has won the respect and confidence of all M. C. athletes by their sin¬ cerity, competence and their own gentlemanly conduct on and off the field of play. We consequently wish them our best as we leave their guardianship. Top: T. (liLigan, Assistant Coach, Football; W. Grant, Head Coach, Fcotball; J. Buck- ley, Assistant Coach, Football. Bottom: W.

FOOTBALL State B Champs With the oj[)ening of the ’48 season the Blue and Gold ha .l to face Pea¬ body High at the Manning Bowl in Lynn. Those present as well as those viewing the game on television were thrilled to see M. C. score seven points to win the game. The Medford game was the most publicized of the year. Medford went down before the Bluejackets by an 18-6 score. Encouraged by these two important victories, the Grantmen went on to defeat Keith, St. John’s Prep, and Cathedral of Springfield, all powerful teams. It was only when they met Dedham that the tide turned. Dedham utilized its passing technique, a factor in which M. C. was weak, to capture the game by a 2-0 score. The final game of the season was especially pleasing as this victory en¬ abled us to gain new honors: the State “B” Crown. Malden Catholic was the first Catholic team to gain such an honor. The successful work of Coaches Grant, Buckley and Gilligan also included M. C.’s fifteenth consecutive Catholic Crown. First Row: E. SuTvan, C. Donovan. P. Barry, K. Alves, J. Hurley, J. Lee, J.

Although no trophies were won, the nevertheless excellent record, and the spirit of willingness and cooperation of the team well pleased Brother Nelson, the faculty advisor, and Mr. Walter Perry, the coach. The work of these men was well done and produced most favorable results. A glance at the box scores will show that in no game was our team an underdog, but rath¬ er fought to the end with opponents who through various circumstances oft- times proved the victor — although only after a hard fight. It was a grueling schedule, which would have cjuickly tired an inexperienced team, but which served only to highlight the endurance and stamina of Malden Catholic. Congratulations to the players, the faculty director, the coach, the man¬ agers, the officials and all who made the basketball season a success. i s f 1 -- ' Hi i Ik J KiJUi iSSm t Mt ' A I ■Pm if B - yi 1 Jr 1 rV ' ' ■ t J First Row.

HOCKEY Catholic League Champions For the sixth straight year the M. C. puckchasers captured the Catholic Hockey League pennant. This came as a surprise to many who thought the Bluejackets would never be able to ice a team resembling 1948 ’s New England Champions. Starting in April 1948 , and all thru the school year, drills were held, so that when December came. Coach Kenty had a sharp and eager group ready to garner further laurels for M. C. After an opening tie with St. Clements, the Bluejackets proceeded to burn up the league. Rolling up 47 points to 6 for their opponents. Catholic emerged with an 8 - 0-2 record and the league crown. The team also extended Catholic’s phenomenal unbeaten record to 43 straight games before going down 4-3 to Notre Dame of Berlin on unfamil¬ iar natural ice. But the most thrilling achievement of the year was the battle the Blue¬ jackets put up against Arlington in the Met tourney. For thirty blazing min¬ utes a fighting Catholic team tore up the ice in a game which left the fans limp. The 3-2 score was only an indication of the fight the Catholic pucksters waged against a classy Arlington team, the eventual N. E. Champs. In i r 111H K w im ■Ini W ' ' E [llilM ■LilM hirst Row. J.

However, while the team didn’t win many accolades, it had its largest meml: cr- ship in the six years of its history. Hopeful to note is the great number of un¬ derclassmen who composed this squad. The team has come a long way this year due to the efforts of Coach Pidgeon, who entered the squad in the weekly indoor dual meets of the Metropolitan League, of which M. C. is a member. Though it did not win any crowns, the team sported a prosperous cross¬ country record in non-league tilts. Indoor and outdoor results were not as good, but individual members starred in both. Familiar names to track followers in Metropolitan Boston are the follow¬ ing M. C. men: Bobby Burns in the shot, running broad jump, and lOO and 300 yard dashes; Clark Phillips in the cross-country and mile runs; Jerry Don- nahoe and Lyman in the mile. Calder in the dashes: and Barney and Lowrey in the jumps. “Give us men, stout-hearted men,” is the team’s cry. With more members they know that they can win. First Ran ' : ]. Lowery. D. Lyman, R.

In spite of these handicaps the team played respectable ball. At certain times the team exhibited championship ball and at other times their greenness gave their opponents easy victories. The victory over Keith at Devir Park gave us our big thrill as Keith, the eventual champ, was leading the league at that time. Other notable victories were the double wins over the Prep and the final game with Central Catholic. A survey of the scoreboard shows that in four of our losses we had out- hit the opposition by substantial margins, and at the same time it shows that the defeats are accountable to unearned runs. Looking forward to next year, we have hope in our several seasoned play¬ ers from this year’s team and the J. V.s. First Row. A. Brigandi - Manager, R. Cahill, P. Melchiono, I). Howard, J. Carney, J.

We, the student recipients of their fine work, wish publicly to express deep grati¬ tude to our patrons, to assure them of our constant remembrance, and to prom¬ ise that we will try to live up to the spirit of sportsmanship exemplified by the West Side.

Ke treat ... “Come to Me, all ye who labor and are heavily burdened and 1 will refresh you.” A retreat is essentially a withdrawal from the world for contemplation of the beauty and charity of God, coupled with profound adoration of His Majes¬ ty. During Passion Week, as the Church prepared to go into mourning for her Victim Spouse, and the day of Resurrection drew near, we, the students of Malden Catholic retreated into the fond embrace of our Creator. Our retreat master, the director of our way into the Spiritual Life, was Father John J. Foley, of the Congregation of the Holy Cross. Father stressed the importance of a true Christian life as living members of Christ’s Mystical Body. Our retreat days opened with the celebration of the Holy Sacrifice, in which all present took an active part by means of the Dialogue Mass. The morning and early afternoon were taken up by conferences and spiritual read¬ ing. Each day closed with Benediction of the Most Blessed Sacrament, while the retreat concluded with the Papal Blessing. This was the zenith of our year. All other activities prepared for it and were based upon its content. May the lessons we have learned here at the feet of Christ stay with us on the Road to Eternity. Bob O’Shea receives a $ioo check from Mr. McGrath of the “Extension Magazine”, for his active work in ihe magazine’s contest. AD JESUM PER MARIAM The Sodality of Our Lady, here under the patronage of Mary Immaculate and St. Fran¬ cis Xavier, and under the guidance of Brother Alexius, has four main purposes. We aim to give special devotion to the Mother of God, and through her to honor her Son. From this devotion comes sanctifying grace for ourselves, which we also use to sanctify others through our example and teaching. Lastly we stand ready to defend the Church against all enemies. At Malden Catholic the Sodality has sponsored the Dialogue Mass, and World Sodality Day; we have supplied spiritual pamphlets and have distribut¬ ed the leaflets of the League of the Sacred Heart; the candidates for our Sodal¬ ity have been instructed and the religion courses have been stressed; also we have supported the missions with the proceeds of various collections, dances and other social functions. Having tried to the best of our ability to live up to these four points in our rule, wc of the Sodality can look back on a successful year. Homeroom representatives of the Sodality are G. Belair, D. Sweeney, A. Bruno, J. O’Donnell. F. Conway, J. Malatesta, K. Alves, T. (nithrie, and prefect R. O’Shea. SODALITY Rev. Brother Oswald, C. F. X., Phil Spencer and Bob Danehy are interested s{x;ctators at Joe Appleyard’s color exhibit. SCIENCE and RADIO CLUBS These two clubs find future engineers as their members. The science club functions to develop two candidates each year for the Annual Diocesan Sci¬ ence Fair. In two years it has produced four honorable mention awards. Joe Appleyard was this year’s science man. Arthur Brigandi was the other top man. The Radio Club still functions on the theoretical side until the members absorb the technicalities. Some boys, however, are really good. Charlie Kirschner is the real electronics man in this club. R. Bardett, P. Hadley, A. Bruno, J. Stevens, L. Gerrior, R. Mahoney, J. Lane find Army surplus electronics interesting gadgets. i I I Art Brigandi demonstrates to Brother John, Bill Doon- ; an, J. Burke, R. Danehy, the mysteries of static elec¬ tricity. Zhe Mi-Citers Under the batonship of Brother Servanus, the hard-working Hi-Liters made our year a musical one, by their playing at the various dances, assemblies, and banquets. Many were the days when they offered relaxation from the tension of classes. The Hi-Way would be lacking had it not a word of thanks for the boys who drew crowds to make the yearbook dances a financial suc¬ cess. Their popularity and musical prowess brought them offers to { erform in neighboring parishes, which they did and with well-deserved compliments. In the past four years the Hi-Liters have noticeably advanced in numbers and quality, due in no small part to their former moderators Brothers Walstan and Casimir and to their veteran members. The Hi-Liters exemplified true school spirit, when they entertained at the West Side banquet, while others partook of the savory fare. These boys also sacrificed dancing and devoted many hours to practice in order that the or¬ chestra might be better. That we are proud of the Hi-Liters can be seen from the M. C. question¬ naire which shows that many boys picked the Hi-Liters as their favorite band. Front-. L,ucy Sanborn, T. (Guthrie, P. I’esta, R. Toomcy, K. Ciuthric, D. CJuinee, Brother Servanus.

Never did a club experience such a harvest of talent as this lucky organization, and what is more, never did a club put out such quality work. It was always a welcome sight to see the new and excellent posters go up for each event. These masters of the pen and brush expanded beyond the call for posters. Mike Fioretti’s professional job on the music-stand for the Hi-Liters was a knockout. Bill Doonan’s poster announcing the Hi-Liter’s dance was accorded much praise for its novelty combination of photography and pen work. Good luck to these boys and their moderator. Brother Servan- us.

Having been critically tuned and sharply focused for four years we stand ready to beam our se¬ lected programs to the world in general. Though we are happy that we have reached our goal and feel a bit independent, we shud¬ der nervously at the thought of severing the ties that have bound us through our school days. On Arriving at the Crossroads . . . We have been taught the rules of life and have been given suf¬ ficient preparation to make our own way, but previously we had our comradeship to console us or help us when things looked bad. Now we walk alone, at least un¬ til we can cultivate new friends. We hope that they will approach those in the past and prove as beneficial. As we hear the final words pre¬ vious to our departure, we seem to age suddenly. Those words are addressed to us not as stud¬ ents, but as adults. We shiver with a moist chill. Oh, Lord, be patient with our neglect and in¬ sincerity. Give us grace and guidance and put in a kind word to mother Mary that she might be with us always. We will try to be worthy of her. And Whisper Sincere Thanks These last few steps to the al¬ tar rail seem like a mile. Paral¬ ysis grips our muscles, but the or¬ gan processional gives us a lift. Surprisingly, we are outwardly calm and dignified as we receive our diplomas. Solemn Benedic¬ tion is most peaceful. The exodus is hurried. Fond embraces of proud parents smother us. Bud¬ dy congratulates buddy. A quick handshake to them and the Brothers and we say so long and thanks. Acknowledgments Right Rev. John J. Fletcher, Pastor Rev. Brother John Edward, C. F.

Brethren, if I speak with tongues of men and of angels and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass or a tinkling cym¬ bal. And if I should have prophesy and know all mystery and all knowledge, and if I should have all faith so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity; I am nothing. And if I should distribute all my goods to feed the poor and I should deliver my body to be burned, and have not charity it profiteth me nothing. Charity is patient; is kind; charity envieth not; dealeth not perver¬ sely; is not puffed up; is not ambitious; seeketh not her own; is not provoked to anger; thinketh no evil; rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth; beareth all things; believeth all things; hopeth all things; endureth all things. Charity never falleth away; whether prophesies shall be made void or tongues shall cease or Knowledge shall be destroyed. 1 r . 1 IDsr ' H j ik!
