Malden High’s Golden Tornados combined desire, and hard work to win the Greater Boston League championship for the second consecutive year. The team was inexperienced, carrying only four starters from the previous season. Compared to the other teams in Division One, Malden was the smallest in the height and carried the least weight. The skeptics were positive that the Tornados had only a slim chance for survival. Summer slipped by and August signaled the opening of summer camp. Every day grueling practices were held followed each night by strategy sessions. To lighten the shaved, heads and a gbl crown atmosphere some of the team members and Coach Kelly shaved their heads. On their return to Malden, groans and screams were heard on the first views of the new style. The first business was the selection of co-captions. John Grenham and John Stanasek were picked by their team members to lead them through the season, with Donnie Roach elected as special team captain. When the season began, all the hours of hard work and energy spent did not go unrewarded. The Golden Tornados proceeded to trample many of their opponents, on the way to the G.B.L. crown. The pre-game psych huddle shows a unified Malden High Team. 18 football
