Text from Pages 1 - 168 of the 1977 volume:

We came as strangers and leave as friends. But time will blur those friendships, and leave us with vague recollections of names and faces. This book was created with the intent that it will, years from now, help to refocus those blurred images.

FRANK TISO Religious Studies MISS CATHERINE GANNON English, Religious Studies Although this year’s varsity football team did not compile a very impres¬ sive record, it still impressed many people as being a great team. This team could have given up after the beginning of the season, but it didn’t because it had a great deal of pride, determination, a great deal of comraderie, and excellent coaches. This was not a winning team, but it was a close-knit group. This year’s captains, Bill Fallon, Tony DeMarco and Mike Quevillon provided great leadership. With a little, more experience and a few breaks, this could have been a winning team. MgS! ■ - ■ ' ' : ' m m m , 5 . i mt m Front: L) Janis. S. Aliberti, W. Fallon, A. DeMarco, R. Tiro, M.

The team, under the direction of coaches Boike and Grassia, began the year strongly. The team continued to have overwhelming victories, including a 12-6 win over our own j.v. team.

Their record could have been improved if the junior Lancers only had a few breaks come their way. It seemed that whenever they lost, it was due to a very lucky play made by the opponent. The J.V. team, coached by Mr. Brian Fiickey and Mr. Daniel Cap- pucci, worked and learned through hard work and tedious drilling. This team will certainly provide some good players for next year’s varsity team. Front, L-R: W. Dwyer, T Ryan, R. Faia, Capt. S. Cocciardi, R. Celeste, J. Ruelle, L. Fallon, M. Sears. Second Row: S.

Playing ten of their fourteen games against state tournament-bound teams, the Lancers established a new reputation for M.C. soccer — that of a tough defen¬ sive team. Second year coach Brother Daniel Cremin improved the team’s quality of play through hard work and dedicated coaching. Malden Catholic opened its season against a strong St. John’s Prep and was badly beaten. But as the season progressed, the Lancers rose to a higher level of competition and were able to stand up to any team in the league. Soccer has grown in its five years here from a sandlot experiment to a growing program with two teams and many enthusiastic participate. Denied a place in the Greater Boston League, the Lancers have found a home in the Commonwealth Conference. Front, L-R: B. DelBene, H. Sturrock, M. Ryan, P. Caiazzo, E. Pasto, G. Grandolfi. Middle: J.

Though this is not a terribly impressive record, it was a rather interesting season. Under the coaching of Mr. Manuel Costa, several of the players had an exceptional season, including John Appleton, Mark Duffy, Mike Trin- gale, Chris Lyons, Ed Bergen, and Kevin Foley. John Appleton was the team’s high scorer for this season. , f V h ■ Jjllli , •• m : s4ik Below, L-R: J. Appleton, J. Anastasi, R. Kelley, T. Walden, R. Coulthard, J. Kelly, S. Tringale. Front Row: R.

Eight of last year’s top ten runners had graduated. All that were left from last year’s five and one second-place team were three seniors and a handful of underclassmen. This young team was easily beaten by powerful Don Bosco and Cath¬ olic Memorial, as was expected. But both Brother Myles and Mr. Ruggi¬ erio were surprised by a very close loss to B.C. High, followed by a rela¬ tively easy victories over Xaverian, St. John’s Prep and Archbishop Wil¬ liams. Senior co-captain Jack Harvey was named to the Catholic Conference all-star team for having won four out of six races and finishing third in the State Catholic High School Championship.

If winter comes, can spring be far behind? WINTER This year’s varsity hockey team will be remembered — not as a great team, but as a team with pride and determination. Injuries caused a rather slow start, and the team was soon elimi¬ nated from the State Tournament. But Captain Bob Buckley and Co¬ captains Kenny Joyce and John Harvey kept the team alive until Archbishop Williams delivered a death blow by pinning a 4-2 loss on the Lancers.

HOCKEY The J.V. hockey team, coached by Mr. David McCarthy, racked up a 15-3-1 record against such teams as Woburn, Med¬ ford, Stoneham and Malden. The team’s success was mainly due to the great spirit and effort of the players. The team did not play in an organized league, but it played teams from both Catholic and public schools.

VARSITY BASKETBALL In the past few seasons, an exciting basketball game was the excep¬ tion rather than the rule here at M.C. This year the opposite was true. After a disappointing season last year in the Catholic Conference, the team switched to the Catholic Central League, where the competition was improved. The Lancers finished in fifth place this year with an 8-10 record. This record has not been matched since the 1968 Lancers. The Lancers were coached by Brother Peter Weston. M.V.P. and high-scorer was Captain Kevin O’Sullivan. ' ■ Kneeling: (. ' apt K O’Sullivan, Coach Brother Peter Weston. Standing, L-R: Coach Frank Halas, R. Quinn, J. Perillo, W. Carr, S. Spurell, W.

With a brilliant record of 13-5, the team romped over their oppo¬ nents. Lead scorer on this year’s team was Ken Viscarello, with an incredible 218.

Their record was 15-3, and for the first time ever an M.C. basketball team beat Don Bosco. When asked to comment on his team. Coach Halas said that he was pleased by their teamwork and perseverance. Mr. Halas was also very pleased by the tremendous support that the freshman gave their team. These fine players have brightened the future for basketball here at Malden Catholic. - : = 1 s® m C I.-R: M Kerri ns, M. Avery, J. Walsh, D. Girodano, P. Barone. P. Rose, M. Pedi, G. Nealon, B.

Due to graduation only one letter winner from last year returned. After three Tri-country League Cham- pionsips and two undefeated seasons, the other teams were hungry for revenge, and this year’s fierce winter also contributed to the loss col ¬ umn. Even so, the team was not without its bright spots. Co-captains Pete Degnan and Ed Kelly will be the only two graduating lettermen. The team had a strong nucleus of juniors and sophomores, with quite a few impressive freshmen, who coaches Brother Myles and Mr. Rug- gerio hope will fill in the void the team suffered this year.

This success was due to the exceptional efforts of coach Brother Daniel Cremin and the swimmers. The swimmers were cap¬ tained by Sandro Carella. The Lancers’ strongest threats were in the 400- meter freestyle swum by Paul Caiazzo, John Munsey and Buddy Hurley, and the 200-meter medley, by Steve Eisenhaur. The team’s best effort in its initial season was against the Northern Conference rival, Woburn. The meet was at the end of the season, and was the product of team effort. The 1977 Lancers show promise in becoming a contender next year. The team will remain the same with only two seniors, Sandro Carella and Mike Ryan, graduating. This will allow them to establish a continuity in their record. Front, L-R: S. Ward, B. Hurley, M. Duffy, M. Ryan, F. Lee, D. Warwick, P. Harney. Middle: J. Munsey, S. Carella, S Eisenhaur, F.

All but three of the players will be returning, so Coach Lang expects to have an experienced team ready to face the stiff competition. But, as always, the team needs support. Nothing spurs a team on to a win quite like a park full of enthusiastic Malden Catholic fans. J.V. BASEBALL The Junior Varsity baseball team, was led this year by first year coach Mr. Thomas Arria. Assembling a record of 8-7, the J.V. Lancers proved themselves to be tough opponents, though their record does not show them to be a particularly strong team. If this team continues to improve the way it did this season, though, next year’s varsity squad will be an even tougher group. Front, L-R: T. Colbert, A. McDermott, C. Perna, J. DeRoache, G.

The team qualified for the State Tournament for the first time, but bowed out in the second round of play. Playing in a very strong Catholic Conference, the team finished third behind Xaverian and St. John’s Prep, with a 10-4 league record. Some of the highlights of the season included the upset over St. John’s Prep in the season’s last match, which was decided by a third-set tie-breaker in the last contest, and impressive showings in the EMass tourney. Ed Leary was consistently strong in first singles. Among the team’s best were seniors Rick Miller, Rich Kelley and Kevin O’Sullivan. -■ , , —--I � . 114 Back, L-R: E. Leary, N. Bratt, K.

The girls spent all summer practicing hard and learning cheers for the football, basketball and hockey games. Lancer fans were sure to notice this year’s addition to the squad, their versatile new uniforms. Thanks to the Lancer Club and Mr. Pasciuto, the girls were able to make it to most of the away games. The girls helped us to understand the need for great school spirit at all games. 117 SAILING CLUB Throughout the year, on any glorious Boston day, Commodore” Father Frank Daley, First Mate” Mr. Philip Molloy, and their group of sailors set out to navigate the renowned Charles River.

The cast was made up of students from M.C., as well as girls from Pope John, Girls’ Catholic, Malden High, and several other neigh¬ boring schools. The M.C. stage crew spent literally hundreds of hours in setting up and running the show. Mr. O’Brien himself never stopped working. In a few short weeks he turned a bunch of high school students into talented stars, ready for the lullaby of oT Broad¬ way. sag 123 Clay Mattos, Dan Whitney, Jim DeCroteau. WMCH T.V. Radio This year, as always, WMCH TV Radio had a fruitful year, thanks to the endless help and guidance of Brother Marcellus and his new assistant, Mr. Michael Sandorse. In the TV complex, the year went out as it came in: new ideas, get¬ ting yelled at, blaming John K., getting keys and asking for Brother Marcellus’ help in the end. Other than that, the students of TV pro¬ vided an excellent service to the Malden Catholic community. Meanwhile, in WMCH Radio, several students including Gil Morel, Neil Hamburg and Jim Pasciuto rebuilt the entire radio station, which can now be heard over cablevision. Though TV Radio had problems, the year proved to be a success.

These meetings were usually informal, designed to get the members together to play, although special meet¬ ings were held on the days before a tournament for instruction and practice. This spring the Chess Team, led by captain David Brown, won its first trophy. The team tied for second place out of thirty-six teams in the Northeast Regional High School Chess Tournament. This was a significant accomplishment for the team, because it had not com¬ peted on such a large scale for several years. Along with the strong re-entry into interscholastic chess competition, the Chess Club is now preparing a wargame team to enter into tournaments. Several war- game matches were held with Melrose High’s Strategic Games Society this year, and the team played so well that it is considering entering serious competition soon. i Though it had only a few members, the Art Club once again had a productive year. Members Brian Duffy, Michael MacD¬ onald and Richard Caliri, along with modera¬ tor Miss Penelope Austin, were responsible for having students’ art work displayed throughout the school. The Club was also very active in assisting various school activi¬ ties by making posters. i 128 DEBATE Big things were expected of the debate team this year, and no one was disappointed. Last year’s team ranked fifth in the nation, so seniors Steve and Ed Malachowski, Jim deCroteau and Rich Genova had a tough act to follow. But then, these four were the 1976 Massachusetts State Varsity Champions, and their coach James Veitch (M.C. Class of ’74) was a very successful debator. The record was indeed impressive. The team qualified to represent Massachusetts at a tournament held in Mil¬ waukee. There were also many high finishes in other tour¬ naments. The team worked long hours for these rich rewards, and it has built up a greatly respected reputation for M.C. debate. Consider, for a moment, the fact that the Debate Team has won more trophies in five years than all MC athletic teams have in forty, and you’ll appreciate the tremendous achievement of our forensic squad! 129 Under the moderation of Brother Joseph Britt, the Camera Club had nine members this year, including President Edward Bockley and Treasurer Arthur Fitzpatrick. This year’s club greatly increased its productivity. It was the Camera Club that processed pictures to complement the Art Club’s decoration of the gym, and also was largely responsible for the pictures in this edition of the LANCE. W v - r i a L-R: T.

CRYSTAL 99 Once again this year CRYSTAL 99 came through with all the scores, interviews, and the latest information. Five times this year, students eagerly scanned the newspaper’s pages to find out what was going on in a favorite activity, a favorite sport, or just what was or would be hap¬ pening around the school. And in between editions of CRYSTAL 99, Robert Kanarkiewicz’s CRYSTAL STREET JOURNAL was available weekly to let the student body know what would be going on in the very near future. Editors for this year’s CRYSTAL 99 were Ed Flaherty and Bob Cutone. Together with moderator Mr. James Markey and a large staff of writers and typists they worked to produce Malden Catholic’s award¬ winning CRYSTAL 99. 1 132 PAGE 4 n May 1 1 and 13 the Orama Club came alive for tw of Neil Simon’s “Th The play was _ _ dram; directed a total of ovei It was a comedy writings of Anton Chekhov!

But such a minor problem could not hinder progress. Along with Editor-in-Chief Steven Smoot and moderator Brother Daniel Skala, the small but industrious staff (pictured below) worked steadily to produce this new and larger edition of M.C.’s best¬ selling LANCE. We have put down on paper what we feel will help the M.C. com¬ munity remember the 1976-77 school year. We hope we have succeeded. Here’s the staff: assistant editor-in-chief Tony O’Brien, literary editor Dom Cianciarulo, editor-in chief Steven Smoot, art and layout editor Rich Caliri. INTRAMURALS Intramural activities at the school this year were infrequent, but all the participants were enthusiastic. The aim of intramuals is to add some relaxation to a school day. Hopefully this year’s program succeeded in its aim. As in past years, there was a high level of competition among the participants. The main reason that this year’s program did not seem to be a success was that new procedures and channels had to be set up for organization and approval of the games. Because of the giant steps taken this year in setting up these procedures, future programs will surely be a success. 136 DRAMA This year’s Drama Club was brought back to life by the enthusiastic efforts of cast and crew, under the direction of Ms. Jill McCarthy. It was more than a surprise that the club was so successful, because drama had been stagnant for more than a year. Ms. McCarthy and her troupe presented two productions. The first consisted of two one-act plays: ZOO STORY starring Ed Brown and John Touchette and I BRING YOU FLOWERS starring Chris Doran and Bernardine Hardy. The second show, which was an overwhelming success, was Neil Simon’s THE GOOD DOCTOR, based on the life and works of Russian playwright Anton Chekhov. The girls of the cast and crew were recruited from Girls’ Catholic and Pope John.

It organized more successful activities than ever. The real key to satisfying the needs of the student body lies in the hands of the chairmen. With very little publicity, it is they who do most of the work. This year’s chairmen were: Joseph Mulligan, athletic chairman; James DeCroteau, cultural chairman; Robert Cutone, Wil¬ liam Quinlan and Richard Keating, social chairmen; and Ronald Giov- ino, religious chairman. And of course the executive board, including President James Pas- cuito and V.P. Kevin O’Sullivan, along with moderator Brother Joseph Britt, was instrumental in the success of the entire council. This was indeed one of the most productive years for an M.C. Student Council. The Student Council Was Involved in . . . Moderator Brother Joseph Britt, C.F.X.

With great organization by Rich Keating, Bob Cutone and Bill Quinlan, along with the help of Brother Daniel Skala and the Prom Committee, the prom was a night to remember. The Prom was held in the Imperial Room of Caruso’s Diplomat, Saugus. Couples, elegantly dressed in formal attire, danced the night away beneath the glowing light of a crystal chandelier suspended from a mirrored ceiling. The mellow music of Swift Kick” made the atmosphere even more exciting. The night was highlighted by the crowning of the King and Queen and their court, who led the dancing to the prom theme, Harbor Lights.” This was the social event o f the year. r; SK- “ ; r , ' JK ' mar «• ■ 146 The King and his Court. Sunday, May 22,1977 It was an extremely warm day in May. The temperature in the gymnasium broke ninety. Somehow one hundred forty-five seniors, with the faculty, made it to the stage. After songs, and William Ragosa’s Salutatory Address, diplomas were conferred. Despite the heat, the graduates survived long enough for the presentation of awards. First of all, the academic awards w ere presented. These went to Michael Whalen (Religion), Robert Kanarkiewicz (Science), John Leonard (English), Kevin O’Sullivan (Mathematics), Kevin Donovan (Language), and Charles Sarno (Social Studies). Next, the non-academic awards were presented. School Spirit Awards were given to Steven Smoot and Joseph Mulligan. Ronald Giov- ino and James Pascuito received awards for School Service. William Quinlan and Kevin O’Sullivan were given Loyalty Awards. The Xaverian Award, the highest honor Malden Catholic can confer upon a student, was presented to Richard Keating. And the Plus Ultra Award, presented each year to a member of the local community for outstanding service to his fellow man, was presented to Brother Plunket Doherty, C.F.X. Finally, Kevin O’Sullivan gave his Valedictory Address, and then came the closing by Headmaster Brothter Robertus Duffy. This was Brother Robertus’ graduation too — he leaves M.C. with the Class of 1977.
