Those of us who have been for¬ tunate to have had Mr. Batchelder will ever remember his wit, understanding, and inimitable story-telling. Batch first came to our hallowed halls as our football coach in 1923. His teams enjoyed a new-found success under their new coach. His track teams have since continued the traditions which Batch has given to all his boys. Many of his former pupils are now on our faculty. Having taught half the city of Malden, Batch is known and liked by a larger fan club than many movie stars can boast. His familiar “Get the facts” has become a war-cry for hundreds of boys and girls. Anyone who has Batch soon learns many pertinent facts—not exactly in the field of mathematics, but adding to one’s general education,—his apple orchard, the twins, the beauties of Wisconsin, and other anecdotes have made many a class loosen up and enjoy math as taught by Batch. It is with the utmost regret that we say farewell to you. We hope you will carry away many pleasant memories of your pupils and our school. We wish you all the success and happiness in the world for your new life. He has made math come to life for many of his classes Well-known for his championship track teams, he has with the use of experiments such as this one. worked untiringly for many years with his boys.

He ful¬ fills his position with hard work, and an active interest in the school children of Malden. Dr. Holmes pos¬ sesses a warm sense of hu¬ mor, and has a genuine knowledge of current school problems, as father of a jun¬ ior high student. Among his favorite forms of entertain¬ ment are driving his car, and playing golf and bridge. Once every month finds this active group, under the chairmanship of the Rev. Charles H. Monbleau, meeting in the school board room of the “Old Building.” Though this department is small in number, five, the work they do is far-reaching, and touches each and everyone of us at sometime in our school life. It is interesting to note that this group represents all walks of life; Rev. Mr. Cha rles Monbleau is the pastor of the Universalist Church in Malden; Mr. Thomas Kelleher is a personnel manager of the Hood Rubber Company; Mr. Walter Kell- iher is a lawyer; Mrs. Kelley oc¬ cupies herself as a housewife; and Mr. George Lodgen is also a lawyer. The members are elected for a period of four years, an election being held every two years. One of the worth¬ while things the committee has done this year is sanctioning a course in driver education in both the voc¬ ational and the high school. Our School Committee. (Back row, left to right): Richard Kelliher, Walter Kelliher, George Lodgen, Dr. Chester Holmes, Thomas Kelleher, (front row): Marion Kelley, Chairman Charles Monbleau, and Louise Rosdahl. [ 10 ] Ltd Capable JOHN B. MATTHEWS Headmaster “May I have your attention, please!” These are the familiar words of our capable headmaster and guide, Mr John B. Matthews. The three years we have spent here, in M. H. S., have passed quickly, but Mr. Matthews has been close to us throughout. We shall never forget his unfailing memory for the names and faces of all the M. H. S. students. “First things first,” will be a lasting characteristic saying of our true friend. Mr. Matthews is a graduate of Bowdoin. Before becoming our headmaster, Mr. Matthews was an instructor of history and economics at Malden High. Though his chief interest lies in our school, his spare time is spent on reading, gar¬ dening, and fishing. Mr. John B. Matthews — we shall never forget the leadership and understanding which you have given to each of us. [ 11 ] bin ctan,l . . . PmluIgsi Our special directors are as follows: seated, Mary E. Spencer, Helene Moore, M. Adella Johnson,- standing, Dorothy E. Blakeley, Herbert Silverman. May we present our city directors who guide the health, music, and art pro¬ grams of the Malden Public School system. Dr. Mary Spencer, director of the health program, has supervised a course in health for the juniors and seniors five days a week. Those who have profited by the many interesting guidance talks this year may thank Miss Helene Moore, who planned and directed them. The teach¬ ing of the home students from the high school is under the friendly director, Miss Dorothy E. Blakely. This May, through the auspices of our music director, Mr. Herbert Silverman, Malden has been honored to be the city in which the Northeastern Massachusetts Music Fest¬ ival is being held. Helen Hills, Eunice Young and Mabel MacQuesten are the three top office secretaries who take charge of the kardex and the attendance slips. Miss Mabel McQuesten, Mr. Matthew’s able secretary, Miss Eunice Young and Mrs. Helen Hills besides carrying on the work of the office in an efficient manner, have been very helpful to our class throughout our past three years in M. H. S. Never have we entered the office with¬ out being greeted by a friendly smile, and a cheery, “Hello.” They patiently make program changes, announce over the P. A. system belated assignments, or page us for forgotten lunches. Putting notices on the bulletin, and receiving shipments are among the many extra services they give to the classes and various organizations. We shall always remember the friendliness with which Miss McQuesten, Miss Young, and Mrs. Hills have given their assistance. [ 12 ] Ind Peb osuzMe Mr. Clarke R. Brookes, Sophomore Class Master, is in charge of the dis¬ ciplinary problems of all the M. H. S. boys. Among other things, Mr. Brookes also is co-ordinator of non-athletic act¬ ivities in the high school, and the one to whom all must go for reserving the club room, or music room, or auditorium. In his capacity as faculty manager, Mr. F. Champlin Webster supervises the fi¬ nancial problems of the various sports at M. H. S. As master in charge of tardiness, he records each lagging student who does not reach his room by 8:00 A. M. Our Dean of Girls is Miss Edna E. Turkington. Her aid has been most prominent in her unending efforts to assist the students of M. H. S. to choose their colleges, and fill out applications. Mr. Robert M. Perry, our soft-spoken Senior Class Master, is the man who checks in all the absentees. Besides this, he is in charge of the school supplies. Our classmates and advisers are: Clarke R. Brookes, F. Champlain Webster, Jr., Edna E. Turkington, and Robert M. Perry. Our faculty assistants are (1st row) I. Conley, E. Mer- curio, C. Stormont, E. Leonard, B. Wolf, (2nd row) S. Lucia, F. Bovley, N. Withers, C. Durant, (3rd row) P. Lane, R. Codwell, M. Clark, B. MacMaster, (4th row) C. Larson, S. Cunningham, D. Berrin. As we move through the corridor of Malden High School during the “S” period, we see busy students doing errands for the teachers, or set¬ ting up chemistry experiments. Others even do clerical work. These are the assistants to the busiest people in the school, and we immedi¬ ately recognize them as our diligent faculty as¬ sistants. Some of the fortunate faculty members, who have their assistance are: Miss Turkington, Mr. Brookes, Mr. Steeves, Mr. Perry, Mr. Melanson, Mr. Merry, Mr. Blair, Mr. Webster, and Miss Moore. The service to the school, for which this group is responsible, is appreciated by everyone in Malden High School. [ 13 ] And Qladly IdJalde Jle Jleswe.

One of the most important places in M.H.S. is our Health department Each year the different classes re¬ ceive health tests. Among them are the Massachusetts vision test, the pure tone audiometer test, and the patch tuberculin test, given in the junior year. The health course has been revived within the past few years to help our students become intelligently ac¬ quainted with future responsibilities. Here we see Miss Crowe testing but one pair of eyes of many hundreds in MJH.S. This is one of her annual tasks and tends to aid the student who is unable to receive care or is unaware of some eye defect. The Maldonian camera catches this group of students listening to the strange as¬ sortment of sounds issuing forth from the ear testing apparatus under Miss Crowe’s direction.

Absent are Lena Farrahar and Mary Wells. MRS. DOROTHY F. KELLEY is our regular substitute teacher. She attended the University of New Hampshire from which she earned her B. A. When Mrs. Kelley isn’t replacing someone on the M. H. S. faculty, she enjoys her hobbies of braiding rugs, and reading. This year, as in past years, much sickness among our teachers kept our subs busy. Student-driver education is a new course, which has been added to the extra-curricular activity of M. H. S. For a number of years the Massachu¬ setts Registry of Motor Vehicles has endorsed student-driver education in the high school. As this is completely new to us here, only an impartially selected number of seniors have been chosen to take it. Mr. Irmin Pierce, the instructor, who is authorized by the Massachusetts Registry, has found the course very interesting to teach. For an hour a week, each student drives the ’53 dual-control Ford, and on Wed¬ nesday afternoons all meet for two hours of classroom instruction in Room 325. It is hoped that this course will be continued for years to come, and that as a result, M. H. S. students will be better drivers. Mr. Pierce, head of the Driver Education Class, seemed to be say¬ ing “Contrary to popular belief, one must stop at a red light.” [ 29 ] eM cm 4. hatching. M. eft. S. 1. Frances Amaru anxiously awaits the verdict as Miss Palmer looks over her work in typing class. Let’s hope her letter has less than three mistakes so it will be acceptable. Practice is important for profi¬ ciency in typing. 2. Here we have a class busy at work. Must be a diffi¬ cult test in the offering. Mr. Queally’s general math class seems to be taking the challenge quite seriously. At least they look pretty studious at the moment. Here’s hoping their work brings good results. 3. Miss Crowe testing again. This is MJH.S. calling. “Hello, testing, 1-2-3-4” Here are some of the sen¬ iors taking the tone audiometer test under the care¬ ful supervision of our school nurse. This is done each year for the students’ benefit. 4. “Be careful with those pins! That isn’t a dummy up there.” Sewing classes come in mighty handy when you’re worrying about that new spring ward¬ robe. Here we see a skirt being tried on for size, while others are still being stitched.

Maybe you’ll recognize the secretary in some firm as one of these M.!H.S. stu¬ dents in future years. These efficient girls who are writing their bookkeeping on the board in Room 327 will someday become very able bookkeepers or secretaries.

[ 35 ] fyn m fceetluuien 7a feesdUi, On January 28 we all enjoyed the Orchestra at its very best as they performed at their annual Orches¬ tra assembly. The spirited processional played as we entered the Jenkins Auditorium that morning was “American Patrol.” Other selections rendered which were familiar and well liked by all were “Blue Moon”, “On The Trail” from the Grand Can¬ yon Suite, “Artist’s Life” and “Songs of Uncle Sam” with the Choral Art Society assisting. This year, as in the past, the Orchestra was asked to entertain the Fathers and Sons of the city at their annual Fathers’ and Sons’ Night sponsored by the Y. M. C. A. The very responsive audience was most appreciative of such numbers as “Strike Up The Band,” “Parade of the Wooden Soldiers,” and selections from “Show Boat”. Our annual Christmas assembly, which was pre¬ sented on December 23 by the Choral Groups and the Orchestra, brought out the wonderful spirit which we all felt at this time of year. “The Night Before Xmas”, a familiar story set to music by Roy Ringwald of Fred Waring’s T. V. show, was presented by the Choral Art Society. “Beneath the Holly” by the Orchestra, and “The Song of Christ¬ mas” done by our mass chorus rounded out a fine program which truly illustrated the feeling of a “Joyeux Noel.” The Oichestra, a popular group of selected talent, poses for the studio photographer.

Obdte tkG, PteAentb tf-Ui it Mudic If you happened to pass by the Jenkins Auditorium any 5th period, it would seem to you as though musical instruments of all shapes and sizes were hurrying by in the arms of about forty talented people, who are claimed by the orchestra. The reason for this commotion is due to the fact that this group is getting ready to make one of its many appearances which include both school events and outside functions. Its enthusiasm is high and attendance is punctual. This can be credited to the organizations mild-tempered and well-liked director, Mr. Robert K. Love, who has always given freely of his knowledge, experience, and time. This year Mr. Love is assisted by a very capable senior, Barry Atkinson, who acts as manager. The orchestra entertained us with many favorite selections at the senior play, “Dear Ruth,” and this year’s Junior Varieties, “Fanta-Sea.” It also performed in the Gay Auditorium at a Father and Son Banquet held under the auspices of Y.M.G.A. At the annual school assembly, on January 26, this organiza¬ tion added to its laurels by presenting a well-rounded program of both classical and popular selections. The music included a medley from “Showboat,” “Dream of Olwen,” “Blue Moon,” “On the Trail,” “Artist’s Life,” and “Tales of Baghdad.” The crystal ball is certainly glowing with anticipation as we look forward to many years of continued success for Mr. Love and the or¬ chestra.

One of the chief reasons M.H.S. has acquired a mark of musical prominence can be attributed to a quiet-spoken, affable man with a baton. Be¬ sides high-lighting the cultural side of our life with his music appreciation and theory classes, Mr. Love also directs the orchestra and our out¬ standing choral groups. We are confident that under Mr. Love’s expert direction, these organi¬ zations can look forward to many more years of continued success. Musical Qfaj ni ' xatian ' i cM it 7a Herbert H.

They may well be applied to the Malden High School Band, which has grown to a membership of sixty-four and has advanced admirably under the expert direction of Mr. Herbert H. Silverman and his able assistant, Mr. Harry Harotian. How¬ ever, in March, Mr. Harotian departed Malden High to become head director of the Winthrop High School Band and was replaced by Mr. Robert B. Pillsbury of South Stratford, Vermont. The Band will always be remembered for its ex¬ cellent playing, precision drilling, clever, intricate formations, and dancing the rumba and tango at the football games. On February 17, for the first time in many years, our Band presented its own concert before the entire school and re¬ ceived a tremendous ovation. The most notable of the pieces presented was a vocal and instrumental version of the popular “Dry Bones” which was real “gone.” The inspiration behind many of the Band’s successes has been the Malden Band Parents Association, a group of interested parents of Band members who work in conjunction with the directors in planning and preparing for the Band’s activities. Among the events scheduled for the Band in the near future is a trip to Rutland, Vermont and participation in a huge music festival to be held in Malden, May 2, 1953. Much of the work is accomplished at the daily rehearsals in the Gay Auditorium, but that is only part of it. Add to this the Wednesday night re¬ hearsals of the All-City Band, of which the High School organization forms the nucleus, and the long drill practices every Saturday morning and you have ex¬ amples of why our Band has risen to a position of eminence. The Band, a very progressive organization during the past year, poses for the school photographer in their new blue and gold uniforms. Front row, bottom: Majorettes, P. Goodwin, J. LaRoche, M.

While the Band performed a pow-wow, our eyes were centered on the pretty major¬ ettes, complete with headdress and colorful feathers, doing a traditional Indian dance. At Christmas, for the first time, the Band played Christmas carols through the corridors of M.H.S. Here we see them on the bottom floor where the carols echoed throughout the build¬ ing. At our annual band assembly, the Dixieland band was a huge success.

No songs ever written are more beautiful than the traditional Christmas carols. Add to this lovely music, a skilled arrangement and a chorus of melodious voices and there you have the Combined Chorus. This group consists of a selection of the finest voices in the school composed of MacDowell, Jr. Schubert and the Choral Art Society. The excellent manner in which it presents its selected numbers is due to the arrangement and direction of the ever-diligent Robert K. Love. Among the selections which the Combined Chorus rendered at the Christmas Assembly were Fred Waring’s “Song of Christmas,” narrated by Ronald Keefe, president of Choral Art Society, “Cantique de Noel,” and “Twas the Night Before Christmas.” Community singing led by Mr. Love was enjoyed by all. The Choral Art Society which forms the center of activity of the Combined Chorus has performed at many events during the past years, including the annual Or¬ chestra Assembly, this year’s Jr. Varieties “Fanta-Sea,” [ 40 ] Sinif IriJhile Ijou+uj, Miller, A.

One could not praise any of our vocal groups without giving credit to the quiet, often unappreciated accom¬ panists. These unselfish students who give freely of their time and energy are Barry Atkinson, Barbara DeMille, Charles Saunders, and Dorothy Taylor. The Combined Chorus is one of the young candi¬ dates for public favor in Malden High. It was newly formed last year under the direction of its ambitious director Mr. Love. The chorus and its director can well know how popular they are with the school from the warm manner in which they are received. The students are grateful to the talented songsters for the enjoyment they always afford In such a short time, the group has become so popular that the entire school backs it with confidence for the future and best wishes for all possible success. Their campaign is over; they’ve presented their platform and have been elected by an overwhelming landslide. [41 J LOOK RECORD jSfiPv: ' CLUBS Mcdda nia+t atidU ScUaal i i i i JANICE DeLUCCA and CARL BOYD have a pleasant dis¬ cussion with Miss Mary Heald, the adviser, concerning color in the year book. From the expression on their faces we can see that things are going well. Hats off to Miss Mary Heald, head adviser, and the entire Maldonian staff, for the hard work and tireless effort put into the 1953 Maldonian. Since September, the literary staff of the Maldonian, under the direction of co-editors Janice DeLucca and Carl Boyd, has been scheduling pictures for the photogra¬ phers and writing copy. The business staff, the back¬ bone of the yearbook, headed by the business manager, Elaine Galante, has been raising funds and handling the business matters. Due to the increased effort of the advertising staff and to the generosity of the senior class, the Maldonian offers many innovations this year. Blue color will be used for all running copy and for the division pages. Many more pictures will appear with less space given to copy. The administration section will feature informal shots of the faculty. In keeping with the past election campaign, the theme of the Maldonian will be in the form of a campaign for M.H.S., featuring the work of our able art staff. The staff of the 1953 Maldonian hopes that you will enjoy reading this new yearbook. THE MALDONIAN STAFF and the entire high school owe much to these four ardent photographers: Bill MacDonald, Neil Callahan, Bill Brown, and Sonny Attenberg. YES, THAT’S MARY MANLEY asking John Gilgun, the club editor, for his monthly report. Virginia Thomas, our artist, is watching Muriel Velleman sort pictures for the club section. OUR FRIENDLY MUSIC STAFF editors, Bob Shilansky and Barbara DeMille, are busily pasting up their pictures while the sophomore staff, Bill York and Marion Howlett complete their section. 1.

A lilue And Qald IriJlni dfancM WITH MISS LESLIE, the co-operative literary adviser of The Blue and Gold, our high-rating school newspaper, are Enid Feldman and Trudy McCaul, the co-editors, Bob Richardson, the Circulation Manager and Isabelle Conley, the Business Manager. Mr. Smith, who is missing from the picture, handles al the business of the newspaper. The Blue and Gold is first, last and always a democratic student newspaper, with opinions, stories and editorial ideas from anyone eagerly accepted. There is scarcely a student in the school who has not been stopped at least once by the Roving Reporter and asked “What do you think of prestidigitation?” or “What are your thoughts on spring?” Miss Madge Leslie guides the literary staff, pushing them along to their inevitable deadline. Mr. Paul Smith heads the financial interests of the paper. Wednesday is the deadline day and Miss Leslie’s room is crowded with frantic reporters waving sheets of copy, trying to swal¬ low a hamburger or a dill pickle, writing headlines on the blackboards or puzzling over picture layouts. When the final draft is sent to the printers on Thursday, the Literary staff sits back and lets the Business staff take over. Friday, the Circulation department rushes the copies to the homerooms and another deadline has been met, another issue is in the hands of news hungry stu¬ dents and another appreciative gesture is waved to the members of the Blue and Gold by the students. PETER AMATO, sports editor of The Blue and Gold, tabulates the football forecast results after the Malden-Everett game. HERE WE HAVE a typical Wednesday afternoon get-to-gether, as W. Workman, S.

In December of 1952, the L T sonians entertained the mothers in the Music Room. ‘“Slow-but-Sure”, the often-mended clay turtle of the Usonians, will be replaced this year by a younger cousin. The old mascot, held together with scotch tape and prayers will be sealed away in moth-balls for posterity. The Usona girls, under the chairmanship of Virginia Squires, collected over $600.00 for the March of Dimes polio drive. These very helpful and co-operative girls also prepared charity baskets at Thanksgiving and Christmas for unfortunate fami- lies. ith Janet LaRoche acting as Chairman, the annual Usona Mother and Daughter Night was held December 12th in the Music Room of the High School. The 60 present completed this wonderful evening with the singing of Christ¬ mas Carols led by Nancy Monbleau. The Alumnae Banquet, held at the Kernwood Club, under the chairmanship of Naomi Shaffer, brought 81 members of Usona together. The guests were Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Matthews, Mrs. Margaret Sawyer Jacobus, who acted as toastmistress, and Mrs. Dorothy Briggs Aronson, as guest speaker. With the aid of Miss Turkington as adviser and Barbara Clay as president, Usona has completed another most suc¬ cessful vear. [ 48 ] Basketball -- Jlil 39, @° ? 37 President Phil Berg and adviser John J. Queally have continually helped to keep up the fine standards of the Literary Society. Most of the club’s activities this year were presented with Usona, the sister society. Together they presented “Cornstalk Capers” in the fall, and “How To Propose” at the Inter-Club Play Contest. This was a witty and thoroughly enjoyable skit. For further recreation, the two clubs played miniature golf, and they plan a bowling match this spring. The four clubs, Cam, Cog, Usona, and Lit, joined to present a square dance on St. Valentine’s day. Once again, Lit defeated Cog in basketball, and will meet them on the softball diamond later this year. Lit’s banquet, always a colorful and delicious affair, was given in the fall. The banquet is always the highlight of the year for the Literary Society, and is looked back upon with delight.

[ 49 ] Jlunak VieweA fyn m Roof During a cold spell in January, a group of enthusiastic, weather-conscious boys visit the roof top of Malden High School to view the miraculous lunar eclipse. “Everyone talks about the weather, but no one does anything about it” ... so goes the old saying. However, the Malden High School Weather Bureau is learning as much as possible about prediction, causes, and effects of weather. Adviser Mr. Gilchrist, who has attempted this year to fill Miss Anne F. Slattery’s shoes, has taken the Weather Bureau to such interesting places as the Logan International Airport, and the Blue Hills Observatory. The club also took a trip to radio station WEEI to see E. B. Rideout, the famous weather forecaster, who is still using a power-driven device for predicting weather given to him by the Weather Bureau some years ago. At the Massachusetts Insti¬ tute of Technology, the members listened to a lecture on Aerodynamics. Nowhere in the country do mete¬ orologists have a better chance to study weather, for no section of the country has as much weather as New England. The club is kept constantly busy, checking instruments and changing weather flags. No club in the school serves a more worthy purpose. Mr. Gilchrist and David Ross measure the precipi¬ tation which has collected in the rain gauge in the last three hours. David Ross, Roger Horton read the maximum-mini¬ mum thermometer, on the roof, as Thomas Mann, Christine Alagero, and James Noseworthy look on. Gam Welcamel Atent Cam welcomed a new adviser this year ■— Miss Laura M. Pearl, who was chosen when Miss Gilman retired. The Cam girls collected $584.60 for the Red Feather in November, with Selma Klayman as chairman and Eleanor Rood as publicity manager. Norma Novogroski and Audrey Rain were co-chairmen of the Mother and Daughter Banquet, which over 80 attended. Miss Mada Nance, the guest speaker, did dramatic interpretations. The Annual Professor Quiz, headed by Shayna Chasman, was an interesting affair. Mr. John B. Matthews acted as quiz master and the teachers won by a few points. Book prizes were given to the two highest scorers— Mr. Gilchrist and Phil Berg. Cam is very proud of the fine cup given to them this year for winning the Inter-Club Play Contest. Cam and Cog combined to present “The Happy Journey” by Thornton Wilder. Jean Shumrack of Cam was chosen as the best Actress. We are sure that Cam, with its new adviser, will go far and meet with great success in the years ahead as it had this past year with Nancy Kellum as president. E. Rood, B.

The members of “Der Deutsche Ehrehverein” have had a highly enjoyable time this year, whether they were bowling down ten pins in November or watching Mr. John Love’s colored slides of the German country¬ side. At one of the meetings, Mr. Samuel Winerman spoke on his tours through Germany. The vocal chorus, at the Language Club’s Christmas Party, was only equalled by the German band which performed at the same function. Bob Shilansky led the band. At the initiation, the new members read from German texts to prove their ability. Mrs. Galligan is the ad¬ viser and is aided by president Carl Grebe. Ronald Keefe is the vice-president and the treasurer is Barry Atkinson. These officers have guided this language club through a year of fun, recreation, and service. [ 52 ] P.S.C. SfW-nio i behate leam The purpose of the Political Science Club is better understanding of current events, and the furthering of debating. This year the National Debate Topic was . . . “Resolved . . . That the Atlantic Pact Nations Should Form a Federal Union”. Members of the debate team were Allan Blackman, Robert Petow, Robert Leeds, Elliot Carlson, Marshall Nanis, James Matisoff and Sheldon Shapiro. Debates have been held at Everett, Somerville and Chelsea. In December Mayor Lamson spoke to the club in the Music Room. He discussed taxes, the M.T. A. deficit, and improvements since 1946. A film was shown to the entire school during the winter. It was called “Hawaii” and tended to show the reasons for making Hawaii the forty-ninth state. The film showed that Hawaii means much more to our country than pineapples and hula-girls, ec¬ onomically, culturally and defensively. Current events this spring have been very deceptive, with the “Peace Offensive” and the new ruler in Russia, but the Political Science Club has continued to keep abreast of the times and well-informed in spite of the confusion. It is unfortunate that the P.S.C. Bulletin Board, an informative newspaper put out by the club, has been discontinued for economic reasons. P.S.C.

NEIL COOPER, FAITH ALLEN, AND ELEANOR ROOD Rive their interpretation of a scene from “The Long Christmas Dinner,” presented by the Greenroom Dramatic Society on January 30, in the Jenkins Auditorium as an extra treat for the audience, since Greenroom did not participate in the Inter-Club Play Contest. The reason for this is that they have won first prize every other year they have entered. Again we see Neil Cooper along with Mary Degnan and Joan Rodman during the performance of “The Jar” at a school assembly. Both these plays have been presented at places other than the high school. [ 54 ] tf-n nch GUviut SiwcjA At Qh ultmal “Le Cercle Francais”, otherwise known as French Honor, is advised by Mr. Louis Melanson. The offi¬ cers of this organization are Genevieve Tenenbaum, President; Betty Ann Burns, Vice President; Elaine Galante, Treasurer; and Betty Ann Farmer, Recording Secretary. The French Club is fortunate this year to have as its president a genuine Parisien. Genevieve came to this country only a few years ago and has done a great deal for the club. Students wishing to join French Club are required to have an average of A or B by the third term in French. For initiation, the prospective members have presented skits, singing, and dancing in both French and English. French Club stimulates interest in cultural activities and scholastic achievements by giving a prize to the highest ranking senior member at the senior banquet. Jimmy Newman, Phil Conti, Joan Gavoorian, and Gene¬ vieve Tenenbaum in the background, Betty Ann Burns, Carol Fisher, Mary Daniele, Arlene Kend all, and Audrey Spinney give their rendition of various French Christmas Carols at the language clubs annual Christmas party on December 22, 1952, in the small gym.

The picture was taken after Santa Claus, alias Mary Wholley, had gone home. Have you seen girls wearing smart blue and gold jackets this season? They are probably Tri-Hi members. Over thirty Tri-Hi members bought jackets this year. In October the girls collected dimes and quarters for the Red Cross Drive. Some of this money either went to the veteran’s hospitals or to the poor people made homeless by the spring floods in Holland, England, and Belgium. This winter Tri-Hi sponsored a clothing drive for Korean victims of war and unfortunate Europeans. The Christmas Party held at the Y.W.C.A. on Washington Street, was the usual suc¬ cess. Mary Wholley played Santa Claus and distributed presents in front of the big Christmas tree. The members plan a banquet and tea this spring. This year the group was recognized as one of the clubs in the world wide or¬ ganization of Tri-Hi. [ 56 ] hUitebutel So Aomo ie QtuAe How many bewildered Sophomores owe some¬ thing to Hi-Y and the booklet the club prepares? This Sophomore Guide, though often discarded the third week in September, is invaluable to the novice, for it gives a floor plan of the school, a directory of the faculty, and a calendar of im¬ portant events. It also lists “Do’s” and “Don’t’s”. Hi-Y meets at the Y.M.C.A. the second and fourth Monday of every month. At Easter the club sponsors a sunrise service, which is an annual event. The club had a new adviser this year, Mr. Hussey. Though a small club, Hi-Y per¬ forms invaluable services for the school. R. Shick, J. Murphy, R. Wall, J. Dean, T. Chopelas, S. Milligan, W.

The Camera Club is one of the less active clubs in the school, being necessarily limited in scope and variety of activities. The job done by the Camera Club, how¬ ever, is often important. Many of the Blue and Gold and Maldonian photographers have been trained in printing and developing, not to mention technique and shading, by the Camera Club . Anyone who wants to can learn a little of photography by joining this club.

This club holds its meetings the first Thursday of the month and always has a program planned for each meeting. At the first meeting of the year Headmaster, Mr. John B. Matthews gave a most interesting and informative talk on the part education plays in “helping you live a life as well as to earn a living.” Latin and its place in the school program were also discussed by the head¬ master. After this, a panel program concerning Latin characters (similar to the television program “The Name’s the Same”) entertained the club. The Society presented the Parents Night in the Gay Auditorium in February. Plays presented at this time were “Snow White,” “After the Storm,” “Mr. Cicero has the Floor,” and “They Will Gossip.” An award is given at the end of the year to the highest ranking senior Latin student. The school thanks the Latin Honor Society for taking on the large task of buying the Latin Auxilium tests for the Latin students.

Nancy Kel- lum, Robert Chadis, and Neil Cooper placed first, second, and third respectively. Joseph Pugach and Harlan Lewin were co-chairmen of the contest. Thirty years ago Cognoscendi Causa Society was founded with the purpose of furthering debate and public speaking. At the Cog Banquet, this year, Adviser Mr Bruce Gilchrist and President Robert Petow hope to have a representative from each year of the club’s existence. Nancy Kellum, of Cam, won the David M. Katz Prize-Speaking Contest this year with her recital of “Mary, Queen of Scots”. This is the second time she has won the contest with this recital. Last year she won second prize with “Cutting from Mad Woman of Chillot”. She was given a chance to compete in a speaking contest at Colby and was also given time on the radio. Cog unfortunately lost again to its rival, Lit, in basketball, but the members hope to trounce Lit this spring in softball. Cam and Cog combined to present “The Happy Journey” by Thorn¬ ton Wilder at the Annual Inter-Club Play Contest. This play was chosen best by the judges, because of its warmth, simplicity of theme and humor. After thirty years Cog is a growing, robust club with a bright future and a full, fruitful past. We hope that the next thirty years will be as interesting and colorful. [ 60 ] l Oitlt Maruf, 2ueen The eighth annual Gog David M. Katz memorial prize-speaking contest was held in the Gay Auditorium, February 20, 1953. The program began with a welcome by President Saul Ziner and an introduction to the Master of Cere¬ monies, Mr. Clarke R. Brookes, who reviewed the en¬ tire history of the contest. A past president of Cog, David M. Katz, who served the organization faithfully and loyally, was killed in action while serving his country during World War Two. Eight years ago when Cog was celebrating the twentieth anniversary of the speaking contest, the members recalled all the work done by David M, Katz l Scoti. and decided to name this contest in his memory. Since that time it has retained that name. The first prize was awarded to Nancy Kellum who won, for the second time with the same recitation, second prize was awarded to Robert Chadis and third prize to Neil Cooper, who also won third prize last year. Again this year, as last, there were supposed to be eight contestants, but due to extra curricula, Joan Rodman was unable to participate. However, Cog still deserves a great deal of credit for another most success¬ ful year. 2 . 3. 4. 5. 6 . 7 . 1 . Neil Cooper always tries to do his best and again this year came in third in this contest. He came first in the program rendering his selection, “The Tell Tale Heart,” by Edgar Al¬ len Poe. Ralph Lindheim, although he is so small, gave a wonderful interpretation of “Burgomeister’s Death,” from the play “Bells”. Nancy Kellum, chose as her entry for the second time “Mary Queen of Scots” by Maxwell Anderson. Herbert Siegel, a new comer to M. H. S., did an excellent job with “Rienzi to the Romans” by Mary Russell Mitford. Arthur Baseman made a plea for the rights of the people with “A Man Without a Country” by Edward Everett Hale. William Silvestri, another new comer to this contest gave his rendition of “The Murder of Lidice” by Edna Millay. Robert Chadis is seen giving his most touching performance of “Excerpts from Tale of Two Cities” by Charles Dickens. [ 61 ] Gam-Gacj, Win With cMap. ' p , flo-usiney, rr Row 1, left to right: V.

Under the able guidance of Dr. Bowman this is easily achieved. Once again the English Club presented the Inter-Club Play Contest in Jenkins Auditorium, on January 30, 1953. This year four plays were presented but only three entered into the contest. Greenroom’s presentation, “The Long Christmas Dinner”, by Thorton Wilder, was not judged because the standards of Greenroom in drama are so high, and Greenroom, being a dramatic society, is more experienced and superior to the clubs which are not primarily interested in dramatics. Greenroom per¬ formed this year during the time the judges were picking the winners from the other plays. The Inter-Club Play Contest is one of the few events of the year in which all the major clubs participate. Lit combined with Usona to present “How To Propose”, a hilarious skit which traced marriage proposals from the days of the cavemen to the super-sophisticated present. The politi¬ cal Science Club presented “The Lost Elevator” by Percival Wilde, a short scene from the life of an ele¬ vator man who stopped his lift between floors to settle a lover’s quarrel. The winning drama was “The Happy Journey” by Thornton Wilder. It was presented by Cam and Cog. Jean Shumrack was chosen as the best actress and James Matisoff and Bob Shilansky shared the award for best actor. Chairmen of the production were Priscilla Gardner and Richard Nystrom. With president, Carl Rappaport, vice president, Beverly Jones, secretary, Priscilla Gardner, and Treasurer, John Gilgun, Dr. J. Russell Bowman has seen the club through another fruitful and interesting year. [ 62 ] 9n 9ntest-GluJt.

Much cJl-avac - Planning a few surprises—Coaches Melanson and Boyle scheme witlh co-captains Francis Treanor and Joe Puleo for the massacre of highflying Everett. Quickly losing his turkey appetite—Coach Me¬ lanson tensely observes one of the oldest grid classics in the country, the 65th annual Malden- Medford game. Struck heavily by gradu¬ ation, the Blue and Gold underwent a complete re¬ building job, and while do¬ ing so, amassed a stately slate of five triumphs, three losses, and one tie. Along¬ side a firm defense, a decep¬ tive backfield helped re¬ pulse such gridiron favorites as Nashua, Melrose, Manch erett, and spurred Somerville to its capacity to claim the decision.

Dick Carp, Hank Maiuri, and Dave Perrotti hampered the Nashua offense and were largely responsible for allowing the hometowners to cross the midfield stripe but once. Bob Tortorella, shifted from his familiar tackle position, was above average as a quarterback. Tabbed the game of the week in schoolboy circles, the star-studded Hurricanes of Haverhill outswept the Golden Tornado to the velocity of 27-6, and snapped their unbeaten skein at thirteen. With the pressure relieved, the fiery Melanson men assumed the comeback trail 39-12 against a Melrose unit, which was a “soft touch” on an otherwise grueling schedule. The constant use of the wrnwmmm wmmy ' T m ■ � . Ralph Giandeminico is brought to the ground after a scant yard gain. Medford’s 27-0 victory gave them the edge, 29 wins, 28 losses. There have been 8 tie games.

Without a first down by either team, Manchester led 7-6 at half-time. Deception on the part of quarterback Bob Tortorella on an end sweep by Guy LoConte, pro¬ vided a squeezing 13-7 verdict. Manchester suffered from a severe case of “fumbilities” which caused them to lose possession several times within striking distance of the end zone. Squirming, bulldozing, and sidestepping to aid his team goalward, John DiGiammarino decided a tie wasn’t sufficient. Much to the chagrin of the Brocktonites, “Di- Gam” pushed across the sole marker, just as the official placed the whistle to his lips for the completion of the conquest. Dave Perrotti’s over the shoulder spear of a Bill Brown aerial resulted in the finest executed play of the campaign. The fleet-footed end outmaneuvered the Wal¬ tham secondary and continued unmolested to his destiny 97 yards away. John Sicarella converted to knot the score at 7-7. a late game uprising 20-13. Held in check for the first three frames, the locals unleased for two tallies, but the third never materialized. Only a junior, Bill Brown’s signal calling won considerable acclaim and secured for him a place in the starting lineup. A vigorous “Beat Everett” campaign paid dividends when an elated Malden team wearily departed from the shadows of their greatest memoirs. Go-captain Joe Puleo with his 145 pounds of fighting spirit sparkled the attack. Paul Elmstrom, Hank Maiuri, Bob Tortorella, and co¬ captain Frank Treanor led the charges on a 1400 pound Everett forward wall which wiltered under the constant pounding, 13-6. To the boys, coaches, and supporters, the season was a success despite Medford’s 27-0 victory in the finale before an overflow crowd at the Malden Municipal Stadium. Other stellar performers instrumental in the team’s attainments include Vic Boudreau, Dick Carp, Paul Elm¬ strom, Windsor Forbes, Ed Galvin, Ralph Giandemenico, Paul Hurton, Dick O’Keefe, and Carmen Nigro. A new comer to the football coaching ranks, Jack Hussey, helped relieve some of the burdens from the shoulders of Coaches Melanson, Boyle, and Wettergreen.

On September 29, the Bonecrushers inaugurated the campaign with a 6-0 loss to a much heavier and older Everett squad. The defeat was extremely costly since Larry DiGiammarino and Joe Wilson sustained injuries. Outstanding were Mike Buonapane, who served as chief ball-carrier; the entire Malden forward wall composed of Ed Hay, Joe Spezzafora, Dave Perry, Jim Mooney, Ed Barnes, and Gerry Murphy; and Kevin Kelly, diminutive quarterback. Malden Vocational became the Bonecrusher’s initial victim, 13-7. George Mancini’s two touchdowns, both on short plunges, comprised the J.V. scoring. Also excelling were Sam Gualteri and Stan Flaschner at halfbacks and Morrison at end. Ron Graham’s 75 yard romp on the opening play from scrimmage, and DiGiammarino’s 16 yard sprint to pay dirt on the Wettergreen special end around gave Malden a 12-0 advantage at half-time over Melrose. How¬ ever, it necessitated a Melrose fumble after a Bonecrusher drive was apparently halted within sight of the goalposts to enable the Jayvees to eke out a 19-13 decision. Gerry Murphy plunged over from the one-foot marker for the clincher. The Jayvees continued to trample their opponents, annexing their third and fourth straight wins against Sau¬ gus and Revere, 12-6 and 7-0 respectively. Featuring a marvelously rugged line which seemed to specialize in goal-line stands and sparkling offensive play, Malden won these battles quite handily, contrary to what the closeness of the scores might indicate. Against Saugus, ponderous A1 Browne collaborating with Joe Glionna and Captain Jim Mooney produced six points by blocking a punt in the end zone. Defensively, Bill Austin, John Croshaw, and Art Flynn continually made key tackles, disrupting the Saugus offense. The Revere clash was essentially of the same pattern; the Jayvees grabbed an early lead and then the linemen took command. The Somerville-Maiden affair unquestionably offered the utmost in thrills and chills to the moderate crowd in attendance. After Somerville had tallied with but 50 seconds to play, Malden’s Kevin Kelly filled the air with passes; he finally succeeded as the gun sounded with a screen pass to Graham, who, receiving superb blocking, raced downfield 70 yards, only to be tackled from behind on the 15 yard line. Final score: Somerville 13, Malden 7. Performing under adverse conditions, the Bonecrushers experienced a dismal windup at the hands of a Medford eleven, which gave too fine an exhibition to be accepted as truly a junior varsity group. Coach Charlie Wettergreen should certainly be proud of his charges, and Head Coach Eddie Melanson should certainly be happy with the bumper crop of A-l prospects available for molding his 1953 Golden Tornado.

Gualteri. Displaying a queer mixture of brilliant and sloppy basketball, the Jayvees captured six games and were licked in three. Malden jumped off to an auspicious start by upsetting Medford 31-22 in their first league game. Gerry Murphy, who was considered the Jayvee “player of the year,” sparked a last quarter rally with 15 points to cinch the verdict. The Jayvees made it two straight by trimming Revere 38-26 with Bill Brown racking up 11 points and then were put to rout by a cracker jack Somerville five, 70-33. Despite the fine work of Stewart Cummings and George Holland, the Hometowners were thumped by Quincy and Everett, 42-37 and 55-36. Cummings’ 23 points (individual season high) were vital as the Jayvees drubbed Chelsea, 53-36. In losing efforts, Joe Henigan dropped in 13 points, but Medford prevailed 40-31; Cum¬ mings, Murphy, and Brown did all the scoring, but just failed to overhaul Everett in a low point game, 28-26. Murphy and Henigan again starred as Malden subdued Revere, 40-31 and was beaten by Somerville, 34-26. A fast Quincy quintet surprised Malden in the first half and then roared to a 44-25 victory. In the most exciting tussle of the season, the Jayvees came from behind to turn back Everett 35-33. Murphy and Sam Gualteri sank the winning foul shots as the crowd sat tensed. Coach Arthur P. Boyle, who did such a superb job as coach of the second team this year, will graduate together with his boys to coach of the first team next year according to the expected shifts of assignments due to the retirement of Mr. Batchelder. Good luck to Mr. Boyle and the 1953 Golden Gale! Pavlova was never more graceful than Joe Henni gan’s display of perfect basketball form. His two pointer went for nought, however, as Everett pre vailed 55-36. r 69 ] UciAAsitq, jbueh tyacultu tyosi Everything and anything to contribute to the fight against polio.

Co-Captains “Easy Ed” Melanson and Art Boyle played valiantly with the echoes of cheerleaders, Mable McQuesten and Robert Blair, blasting encouragement. At halftime Coach John Matthews requested that Doctor Louis Glaser and Nurse Grace Crowe check his recruits. Dancing and the awarding of sweaters to the football squad filled out the evening’s program. Other faculty members who have recalled their earlier playing days in¬ clude Messieurs Bill Beaulis, Jim Booth, Ken Buckley, Hooker” Coughlin, Charlie Dullea, Roy Finn, Jack Hussey, “Chick” McGeoch, Erwin Pierce, Les Regan, Jim Reid, and Charlie Wettergreen. Incidently the Golden Gale won 39-33 with Boyle being acclaimed high scorer by his nine point effort. Although the Blue and Gold courtsters were confined to a second division berth, they nevertheless had a direct bearing in determining the Greater Boston Interscholastic League Championship. They quickly posted worthy vic¬ tories over Winthrop, Melrose, Salem, and Wakefield in pre-season competition, losing only to Winchester 86-83 in overtime. Carrying the distinguished title of champion, the Salem Witches offered little opposition as they trailed by seventeen points going into the last frame. While in the Winchester outfit, the experts chose them as one of the best in the state. Then Malden endured two winless weeks of hardship before topping Lowell.

After losing to Revere 58-51, Coach Wettergreen countered against Somerville with Vic Boudreau, Don Gillis, Joe Henigan, Jim Kapralos, and Dave Perrotti, with Herb Berman in the utility role. Showing fine defensive prow¬ ess, the unit limited the Red and Blue to one basket during the entire first quarter, but the team again faltered during the last half, 57-49. The First Win Is The Hardest Dick Shick with 21 points, “Butch” Ayer with 17, and Captain Don Nuttall with 15 had the cords singing as they mustered more points than the whole Lowell delega¬ tion. Guards Paul Hurton, Bill Moore, and Bill Work¬ man captured a large majority of rebounds from both the offensive and defensive boards and were content with set¬ ting up the forwards, who went on an uncontrollable scor¬ ing spree for an easy 70-50 win. Acting The Role Of “Spoiler” Close on the heels of the league-leaders, Quincy en¬ tered the fracas a solid choice to overpower the Gale, but instead retired with a 48-38 disappointment. This elim¬ inated them from consideration in the Eastern State Bas¬ ketball Tourney. Malden checked the mighty hoop ne¬ mesis with a dozen field goals while they coasted on a fifteen-point margin. The high scoring trio of Nuttall, Ayer, and Shick again paved the way but received con¬ siderable assistance from playmaker Boudreau. But the Gale blew cold in the last quarter 53-44 against Everett before dislodging Chelsea from first place 52-51. In the upset of the year, Bill Workman produced the sinker just eight seconds before the final gun to put his team ahead for the only time in the contest. As a tribute to his teamwork and sportsmanship, “Butch” Ayer was awarded a starting position on the Greater Boston Interscholastic League All-Star Team. With Gerry Murphy and Joe Henigan seeing service on the varsity and the return of first-liners, Shick and Workman, a strong neucleus will be present for next year’s comeback.

[ 73 ] QoMennodb Captain Bob McNamara and coach “Chick” McGeoch prepare to embark for a practice session at the Lynn Arena. Bob’s two-way play ranked him high among the circuit’s defensemen. The Eastern Mass. Hockey League will no longer share the spotlight at the Boston Arena. A private organization has purchased the franchise to the cradle of schoolboy hockey in Metropolitan Boston and intends to dispense with indoor sports. Because of the lack of natural ice, and the overcrowded program at the Boston Garden, the representa¬ tives of schoolboy hockey have “put their heads together,” to arrive at a solution which will preserve the sport. Make tf-inal Root Shed of the glimmer and potency which has been symbolic of a McGeoch coached team, the Goldenrods skated through a rather mediocre season. According to the record, they experienced one of the darkest winters in recent years, with only two wins and one tie to show in ten attempts. But aside from the record, the season served its purpose as a building stone for future top-notch contenders. The first and most effective line of Syl Mc¬ Cormack at the center post for wings Joe Bogan and Larry Stafford will return and could con¬ ceivably be all-star material. This trio should re¬ ceive considerable support from John Donahue, George Lloyd, and Larry Marston. On the senior line which collaborated for key goals in the vic¬ tories over Dedham, Somerville, and the stale¬ mate with Hudson in the playoffs, Ed Pierce was the playmaker for Larry Mullaney and Harry Parsons. Captain Bob McNamara and Carmen Nigro formed a superb defense combination for sopho¬ more goalie Herb Ries, who progressed rapidly. Ries stepped into the net at mid-season, replacing Bert Rodenhiser. Joe Bogan the other first-year man on the starting sextet, led the team in the scoring column. These amazing rookies have greatly benefited from the tutelage of Coach “Chick” McGeoch and by their senior year may write a few fabulous chapters to the M.H.S. hockey story. Wherever the games are to be played, the Goldenrods have resolved and are capable of re¬ versing their present record and gain recognition as the “team to beat,” for the title in 1954.

Batchelder has left a legendary imprint in the annuals of Malden High School after three decades of coaching. His disciples have benefited in the fields of baseball, basketball, football, hockey, and track. After ar¬ riving here in 1923, he has centered most of his activity to establish both indoor and outdoor track, which was in the background then. Newton, Medford, and Brookline were some of the original opponents. His 1924 football team won the State Championship while the 1925 team went one better to cap both the State and New England crowns. Eddie Melanson, “Sheep” Jackson, Doctors Solomon and Hirtle, and Charlie Wet- tergreen are some of the notables. The 1927 Class B Track Championship came to Ma lden, which was elevated to Class A the following year. Two of “Batch’s” best in¬ door squads passed through the portals in 1934 and 1948 while the 1944 indoor squad turned in one of the rare feats, by scoring in every event in the State Meet. The following are the “cream of his crops” for their sportsmanship as well as their outstanding ability: A1 Webb—shotput—4952, Guy LoConte—miler—1953, Jim Taylor—880—1944, Holland Pittock—dash—1928, Steve Gilman—220—1944, Carl Vacarro—indoor hurdles—1948, A1 Walozen—outdoor hurdles—1944, Willie Adams—300— 1948, Donald Campbell—1948, and Harold Sparrow 1944 —in the high jump. His greatest thrill was when Willie Adams, a negro, after being badly fouled, broke through the pack for victory in the state finals to bring home another laurel. The Garden crowd was in an uproar and gave him a tre¬ mendous ovation for his sportsmanship. Becoming more accustomed to the most rigid opposi¬ tion of them all, in the Metropolitan Scholastic Indoor A glorious era in Malden High track history comes to an end as “Batch” poses with his last indoor track team.

Ipteb 42 Ijeaki — 30 Jiefoe Track League, the Mercurymen brought to a close an im¬ pressive season by driving home a 45-32 win over Boston College High. In his initial entrance in the three-hundred yard dash, Frank Treanor easily broke the tape while the regular starter, Andy Morrison, added another point with third place. Joe Camiel flung the twelve-pound shot his greatest distance over the long sought-after forty foot marker and a five pointer. The reliable combination of Dick Wilsack and Jerry Downey again finished 1-2 in the six-hundred yard run. His lead being endangered, Fred Bent had the necessary extra kick to place him in the winner’s circle for the one-thousand yarder. Line Sullivan came from deep in the rear to snatch the third position. The best Malden could do in the forty-five yard hurdles was to gain a three-point second by Dave Haskell. Jet- propelled captain Ken Sim whirled through the fifty-yard dash in six and eight-tenths seconds followed by Parker Lewis in third and Whitney Drake in fourth. The in¬ vincible Class A miler champion, Guy LoConte remained the only unbeaten member of the contingent by reeling off his fifth successive Met triumph, Dave Hennessy was third. Sim, Treanor, Lewis, and anchorman Morrison, composed the relay system which left the B. C. speedsters in their dust. While this was only the Merc’s second year in the league, they have risen from the last to the fourth slot. They had consistent winners in the persons of LoConte, Sim, Bent, and, Wilsack, who fared well even in defeat at the hands of Co-State Champions Medford and Ridge Technical, and Newton. Malden again filed entries in the All-State Meet and Class A State Meet with juniors LoConte and Morrison tallying. Morrison was awarded two third positions while LoConte placed third and earned the Class A miler champ¬ ionship. Along with Dave Hennessy, Jerry Downey, Dave Kahn, and Dave Haskell, the new coach will inherit vast material in his quest for league supremacy. Wow! Coach Henry Batchelder checks his score card to inform Captain Ken Sim of his swift pace in the dash.

The Riflemen trounced North Quincy in a pair of matches by the one-sided margins of 159 and 145 points. Milton Friend, captain, who fired a perfect score, shooting prone, thrice during the season, turned in the best performance with a pair of 186’s. Waltham, although causing some difficulty early in the match, was outfired 872-771. Wakefield was easily defeated 855-763; Jack Sullivan was outstand¬ ing marksman with 179. Winchester also contributed to the Rider’s winning streak; led by Friend, Jack Sullivan, Dick Nystrom, Bob Coughlin, and Norm Silverman, Malden triumphed 837-808 and 869-817. To cap a banner season, the Rifle Team buried Melrose by scores of 841-726 and 885-800. Friend again carried off gunnery honors with 185 and 182. Coughlin and Sullivan with 176 and Cummings and Nystrom with 174 each fired higher than all the Red Raider marksmen. The total of 885 points was the highest team score of the year.

Breezing through a six-game schedule unbeaten, the Girls’ Varsity Rifle Team once again demon¬ strated the well-known axiom that talent plus top¬ flight coaching equals championship seasons. Sparked by Captain Barbara Minchin, the fem-riflers opened their shoulder to shoulder competition by firing a war over North Quincy 472 to 429. Joyce Scott surprised and emerged premier gunner of the evening by coming out on top with 97. Winchester was outshot 475 to 451 by the riflers. Barbara Minchin was top rifler shooting 98 followed by Carol Fisher with 96 and Meredith Comstock with 95. Malden edged Melrose 477 to 468. Again Barbara Minchin grafted top honors. Meredith Comstock, Carol Fisher, Barbara Hunt, Marilyn Joyce, and Ellie Mac- Causland all tied for second with 95 points. In re¬ turn matches the fem-riflers again whipped North Quincy and Winchester. In the former the femmes squeaked out a 475 to 469 victory. Verna Dodier took top gun honors with 97. In the latter contest Nancy Monbleau with 99 and Verna Dodier with 97 led all shooters. Over the years the Girls’ Rifle Team, under the expert guidance of “Pop” Taylor has always displayed top-notch marksmanship; in¬ specting the roster, we find many eagle-eyed riflers to fill the shoes of the champions lost by graduation.

From practice in the gym, to the day of the big game, these energetic, enthusias¬ tic girls of Malden High are at their best. Though conditions for them are not always perfect, they give generously of their time and effort. During football, hockey, and basketball seasons, you undoubtedly found these girls practicing diligently in the gym under the supervision of Miss Virginia M. Gardner. Though they may have lost their voices, frozen on the field, and gotten a bit messed up on the bus, they always had those cheery smiles. In their sophomore year these girls, along with fifty or sixty others practiced assidu¬ ously for two weeks with the veteran cheer¬ leaders. At the end of those two weeks, four girls were chosen by Miss Gardner, Miss Turkington, Mr. Boyle, and Mr. Wetter- green. During that whole year they stayed after school practicing and preparing for their junior and senior years when they would be out on the field cheering the boys in the blue and gold on to victory. Here we see our girls in action at the traditional Thanksgiving game. It was they who led us in those robust, rousing cheers on that cool, crisp Thanksgiving morn.

[ 84 ] SeoAon At Gancosid fyieUt 2b ay The Girls’ Field Hockey team had a very suc¬ cessful season. Winning three games, losing one, and tying another kept them on top in spirit as well as in scores. They started off the season by winning their first game—playing Stoneham at Malden. Jeanne FitzGerald and Nancy Davis each scored one goal making the score 2-1. Although we did not beat Winchester, it was an accomplishment to keep the game scoreless. The next two games were with Watertown and Melrose. Malden won both by a score of 1-0. Jeanne FitzGerald and Shirley Harmon made the goals. The team, in addition to having so successful a season, had lots of fun. For the first time in a good many years, the girls played at the Concord Field Day. Each team played three other teams for a period of ten minutes. Malden tied Con¬ cord, Belmont, and Winchester. By playing Win¬ chester at this Field Day, it gave Malden an ad¬ vantage to learn some of their fancy tricks and keep the real game scoreless. To end this successful and happy season, the first team and Miss Gardner were all invited to a spaghetti supper at the home of Carol Wendell. Carol and Trudy McCaul were the chief spag¬ hetti tossers. The team showed their real Italian spirit when they were then invited to a pizza party at Jeanne FitzGerald’s, to discuss the possi¬ bility of new jackets for the team. After much discussion the first team decided on blue and gold reversible jackets, with “Golden Tresses” written on the upper left hand side. As the girls get ready for their trip we catch an informal shot of them. The trip on the bus is almost as much fun as winning the game. The second team, comprised of sophomores, showed their fighting spirit by winning one game and tying two. Although they lost the other two games, instead of building up scores, they built up character, and the determination to fight to the very end. Since they did so well for their first year playing this sport, next year they should spark on to victory. After two years of experience, the juniors playing on the forward line should get many goals. Among these are Shirley Harmon and Carol Wendell. Of course, they could never get any goals without the fullbacks and halfbacks. These girls play the defensive, Janice Atkinson and Rita LaCount. However, the first team is losing eight of its twelve members. The most pressing loss is that of the goalie Trudy McCaul. For three years she has played first team goalie and saved Malden many times.

The 1952-53 basketball season proved more prosperous for the female edition of the Golden Gale than for their male counterparts. Copping four of seven games (one tie), the femmes displayed excellent form both home and away throughout the campaign. The most frequent contributor to Malden’s score was star forward and Captain Joannie Flanagan with 58 key points to her credit. A close second for scoring honors was Carol Wendell who totaled 53 for the cause. Completing the list of starters were Claudie Philbrook at forward and Rita LaCount, Beverly Jones, and Marjorie Brown at guards. The basketeers commenced operations by easily top¬ ping Winthrop 38 to 21. Claudette Philbrook and Joan¬ nie Flanagan each tallied 13 points to lead the team to victory. In the Reading encounter, Malden was held to a 14 to 14 tie when a Reading girl sunk a long shot at the final whistle. Carol Wendell was high scorer with 8 points. After dropping a 40 to 29 decision to powerful Cambridge Latin, the Fem-basketeers rebounded to take the measure of Watertown 19 to 16, and Melrose 23 to 13. Many excellent substitutes were employed in these games, the most promising of whom was Carolyn Head, a sophomore. Although Swampscott handed Malden its second loss by a score of 29 to 13, Miss Martel’s club concluded with a winning effort. In a closely contested battle with Somer¬ ville High, the femmes eked out a 21 to 20 triumph, thanks to a Flanagan basket late in the fourth quarter in a fitting climax to a successful year.

Breakfast finds the Wilkins family settled down for a peaceful meal when Miriam informs her father that he has offered to donate blood. 3. “Oh, Lieutenant!” cries the protesting Ruth as she half-heartedly resists Lieutenant Seawright when he tries for his first kiss. It’s 6:30 on the night of December 5. The cast, which hasn’t yet begun to be nervous, reports for make¬ up, and then the bustle begins. The line for make¬ up, the cries of “Where’s my straw hat?” or the last minute stage adjustments, the peeks through the cur¬ tain, the inevitable cry, “Don’t you look funny!” Now it’s eight o’clock; the stage is set, the curtain is opening, and the audience is settling down for a visit with the Wilkins family, as it watches “Dear Ruth,” which is a delightful family comedy concerning Judge Wilkins, (Richard Kaufman) his wife, (Arlene Sugar- man) and two daughters. Miriam, (Nancy Brown) sweet sixteen and a brat concerned with progressive movements, has written to a lieutenant in Korea under the name of her older sister, Ruth, (Carol Stormont) who, incidentally, is engaged to a stuffy banker, Albert 2. Weak is the only way to describe Judge Wilkins on his return from the blood bank, as the sympathetic Miriam gives him orange juice. 4. The showdown comes late one night as Miriam is trapped into dramatically confessing her correspon¬ dence with Lieutenant Seawright. Kummer (Robert Shilansky). The entire family is shocked when the boy arrives at the house. Ruth, who is angry at first, falls in love with Bill, (William Ciano), the lieutenant. Another romantic touch is added by Bill’s sister, Martha, (Beverly Jones) and his buddy, Chuck (Philip Conti). The entire household, from the distinguished judge and his charming wife down to Dora, the maid, (Elaine Riseberg) is constantly upset by complications. A happy ending in a double wedding is slightly upset by the arrival of Harold Klobbermeyer, (Neil Callahan) a sailor to whom Miriam also wrote. Thus ended the senior presentation in Jenkins Auditorium, as the cast began to wonder, “Is it really over?” and Mrs. Queally, the patient director, heaved a sigh of relief.

[ 99 ] YOUNG TO VOTE Undergraduates YSMMV Neil Qo p i Selected On September 8, 1952 about 445 juniors trooped into their homerooms on the second floor and started to prove once again that they were the best class ever. Before October was over, they had re-elected practically the same officers as the previous year. The new addition was the assistant treasurer. Their hard work and efforts paid off when approximately 200 couples danced to the heavenly music of Chappie Arnold at the “Broomstick Ball,” their first dance of the year. Next they thought up a new and original idea of selling blue and gold shoe laces. Soon everyone had a pair. If they didn’t have ox¬ fords to wear them on, they wore them in their hair, around their necks, anywhere at all as long as they wore them. JUNIORS RE-ELECT LAST YEAR’S SLATE. Our wide¬ awake officers managed every class affair very success¬ fully. They are left to right: Carolyn Larson, Vice Presi¬ dent; Barbara Hunt, Assistant Secretary; Edward Mul- cahy, Treasurer; Neil Cooper, President; Elizabeth Sulli¬ van, Secretary; Richard Repetto, Assistant Treasurer.

Third row: Barbara Sullivan, Barry Stone, James Mooney, Alfred Benedetti, James Noseworthy, Janice Moores. Then the class chose the theme for their annual Junior Varieties. This year it would be a sea legend. The big night came. “Fanta-Sea” was a great success! With the decorations and talent the best ever, the show was well worth the price. This year the girls wearing ponytails and white bucks were seen trying to duck the squirt guns of the boys, who in turn were trying to duck the teachers until the squirt guns were finally outlawed. The year ended with a farewell dance for the seniors and the juniors eagerly awaiting their senior year. OUR HELPING HANDS.

[ 105 ] Sosi eAa Jnd tlenucd, The very rainy night of March 13, 1953, will never be forgotten by the juniors; for this was the night of the Fanta-Sea, under the co-chair¬ manship of Robert Chadis and Diane Lind. Before the program began, we all hunted down the list of the student patrons trying to find our names—“The Lush Killers,” “The Enlightened Chicks”—oh, here it is! “The Russian Albatross.” After the orchestra finished playing, the cur¬ tain opened. The stage was decorated with many colored fish hanging from invisible threads. Far in one corner, snuggled against the curtain were lobster crates covered with sea weed, and in front of these sat the gnomes, really junior girls. To announce each act a gnome and Stromi, the chief gnome, ran onto the stage sounding their brass gong. And Sigelund, king of the sea, in all his glory, watched the performers. During intermission, while we munched on the candy-bars sold by the candy-girls, the orchestra gave their rendition of “Show Boat,” under the direction of Mr. Love, who also directed the Choral Art Society dur¬ ing the interlude. At the end of the program while the judges, Mr. John IN KEEPING WITH THE THEME. The Fanta-Sea successfully over, Mrs. Parker graciously accepts her gift compact in the shape of a sea- shell, to go with the theme of the varieties, from Diane Lind and Robert Chadis, co-chairmen of this annual event.

They then presented gifts to Mrs. Galligan and Mrs. Parker for all they did to help make the night a roaring success. A KING AND TWO CHAIRMEN.

In September of 1952, 562 new Sophomores were bewildered by the labyrinth of corridors in Malden High. To insure their safety, they introduced a new fad which was their identification inscribed on dog collars which they wore around their ankles. After the confusion was over, their first term was very suc¬ cessful. The temporary council was elected and the treasury became $351.49 richer from the October maga¬ zine drive under the co-chairmanship of Marilyn Good¬ win and Sandra Gershfield. During the second term, the Sophomores sponsored the Candlelight Dance, one of the hits of the season. Allan Curtis and his band furnished the music and a sprig of mistletoe furnished a lot of fun. After a spirited campaign, the third term was opened by the election of class officers with Edward Rudman winning the presidency. The next project on the agenda was the sale of combs. The blue combs with MALDEN HIGH SCHOOL written in gold on them turned out to be so popular and sold so quickly that a second batch had to be ordered. The Sophomores’ spring dance, the Weather Vane Ball, was a record hop with Dave Maynard of radio station WHIL presiding. The fourth and final term started off with a hop, Bunny Hop, that is. Yes, that’s the dance craze that’s sweeping the country. Then every¬ one settled down for the last few weeks of study be¬ fore the welcome summer vacation. On June 26 the Sophomores were relieved of their title. Next Sep¬ tember they return to M.H.S. to the high, exalted office of Juniors.

[ 129 ] CHANGE SENIORS l o-un Quittance Acvi cMel xed Jo- CARL G. GARLAND Perhaps our greatest regret upon leaving M.H.S. will be losing the familiar figure and indescribable grin of our head adviser, Mr. Carl G. Garland. Many of us are carrying away pleasant memories of “S” period and after-school sessions, spent thrashing out problems with committees for the dances, “Oscar Pades,” “Dear Ruth”, “April in Paris” or our “Senior Banquet”, or just plain talks—sometimes fast and furious—but always in good fun. Mr. Garland has been a con¬ stant presence in our lives for three happy years. Solving our prob¬ lems has been no easy task, but he has accomplished it with the ability and wisdom of a father. Fact is, “Mr. G.” has just about been our father. Coffee and doughnuts, moustaches, confusion, “Thank you, Betty Ann,” and “The Best Class” now belong to posterity. In all seriousness, though, Mr. Garland, we promise that your class will never forget you. [ 132 ] Make 1 ' Uti 1114 IZebt GlaU Our three years at Malden High School would not have been as successful as they were without the guidance and help of our advisers. They unselfishly devoted much of their time and energy in order that our affairs would be events long to be remembered. Our Sophomore year started off with a bang by having Mr. Reid push the Magazine Drive over a goal never before attained by a sophomore class. The high light of our junior year was the Junior Varieties or “Oscar-Pades” under the efficient leadership of Miss Pearl. Mr. Queally and Miss Moore played an important role in making this production a big hit financially. Mr. Queally headed the sale of tickets and Miss Moore was in charge of the patrons’ committee. Miss Mooney, our competent financial adviser did so much to help our class balance the budget. We can go no further without extending special thanks to Mrs. Carney who not only took charge of the decorations for the Junior Varieties, but also for all of our other activities, and to Mr. Merry, the property adviser and man behind the scenes. Finally, our senior year. This has been the most important year for many of us. The Senior Play, thanks to Miss Tribble, offered many laughs and good times to the various committees as well as the cast. The Senior Banquet ends our year and Mr. and Mrs. Gilchrist together have been chosen to make the arrangements. Each one of these advisers has done his part in making these three years at Malden High School the happiest and most prosperous years of our lives. Top row: John J. Queally, Evelyn L. Moore, Mary G.

For the past three years, our class has been ably represented by the members of the Senior Council. Two students from each home room made up this legislative body of our class. These counselors conducted their sessions this year under the capable direction of the Speaker of the House, William Ciano, and in past years under the direction of Har¬ ry Hall and William Moore. Much of the important legislation of the class such as the Magazine Drive, Junior Varieties, Senior Play, Senior Prom, and Senior Banquet was discussed at these class meetings. The council also debated on such problems as possible committee members, ways in which the class treasury might be spent, and how to make our class functions successful. We, the Class of ’53, are grateful for all that you have done.

On Thursday, March 8, in the Jenkins Auditorium, thirty-five seniors were inducted into the John W. Hutchins Chapter of the National Honor Society, founded in 1927 by Mr. Thorn¬ ton Jenkins. This group, the largest to be selected since the founding of the chapter, was chosen for outstanding character, service, leadership and scholarship and are entitled to wear gold tas¬ sels on their graduation caps. The assembly was opened by our master of ceremonies, Ronald Keefe, who explained the meaning of the insignia and introduced the speakers. The insignia, in the form of a keystone, the center stone of an arch on which the other voussoirs depend, symbolizes that the members of this society are dependable leaders. Through this stone is cast a flaming torch, the torch of knowledge and intellectual curiosity. Those chosen as speakers were Barbara Clay speaking on character, Betty Ann Burns stressing service, Nancy Kellum defining leadership, Robert Petow accenting scholarship. After Mr. Matthews led the pledge, the candidates one by one came forward to receive their membership cards. As a fitting climax, Rev. Roy L. Minich, pastor of the First Congregational Church, and former school committee member gave the address of the day. With the new members feeling both pride and a true sense of responsibility from this dis¬ tinct honor conferred upon them, the assembly came to a close. [ 136 ] On Sept. 6, 1950 523.
