Football ' 48 In mid August a group of sixty hopeful boys re- ported to Head Coach Stan Bondelevitch to try out for the football squad. Out of these sixty boys there were somewhere in the vicinity of forty-five remain- ing as the first game approached. In order to give the smaller boys a chance once more Coach Bondelevitch split the team into two sec- tions — the Varsity and the Junior Varsity. The Firestone and New Idea Stores continued contribut- ing $5.00 worth of merchandise weekly to the out- standing lineman and back of the team. The coach- ing staff again consisted of only two men, Head Coach Stan Bondelevitch and his able assistant, Rich- ard Lawson. Both these men are well known, liked and appreciated by every member of the student body. The managers headed by Lennie O’Clair do a fine job. The squad looks set for a fine season, facing several mighty teams as Concord, Natick, and Clin- ton, while the others are not pushovers. The students are behind you, fellows, so let’s really mop up the schedule. Maynard 12 — Chelmsford 0 September 18 Maynard lifted the cover off its 1948 football cam paign by beating a sturdy Chelmsford team 12-0. It was Scoop Viola who scored the first tally of the season as he smashed his way over from the three- yard line standing up in the second period, after Maynard scoring threats had been denied in the first period. A few minutes after the first touchdown, Pat Greeno recovered a fumble on the Chelmsford 41-yard line. A few plays later Jerry Robinson ripped around the left side on a reverse and tore 35 yards to a touchdown. Maynard had many more chances to score but every time they would begin to roll a fumble, penalty, or interception would put a halt to the surge. Patsy Greeno, recovering two fumbles and smearing red and white uniforms all over the landscape, together with the speedy Jerry Robinson combined for the one- two punch needed. Maynard 26 — St. Charles (Waltham) 0 September 26 Maynard annexed its second consecutive victory of the young season by walloping a scrappy Waltham outfit by a score of 26-0. Jerry Robinson scored first when he gathered in a heave by Ed Romanowski. In the second period after having two 15-yard penalties racked up against them, Kevin Galloping Ghost’’ Dwinell skirted 71 yards for another Orange and Black tally. Before the first half ended, Dickie Alberi intercepted a forward pass and went un- molested 45 yards to hit pay dirt. At half time the Bondelevitch Bombers were out in front 20-0, as Joe Corcoran and Billy O’Toole each converted once. In the second half the game evened off a bit and Maynard scored but once, that in just two plays. After St. Charles put the ball on the line, Kev Dwinell snared a Waltham pass in mid-air and returned it to the Maynard 40. Jerry Robinson then sped 60 yards for the final TD of the afternoon. It would be too much to name the outstanding players of the after- noon as Maynard has a very well balanced team, and looks headed for a successful season. Maynard 13 — Hudson 0 October 1 Maynard remained unbeaten, untied, and unscored upon by trouncing a fast moving Hudson team 13-0. In the second period, following a long run by Scoop Viola, Jerry Robinson romped 35 yards for the opening tally. Hudson came back many times but the sturdy forward wall of the Orange and Black help each time. In the fourth period, Maynard, capitalizing on breaks, scored once more as Viola smashed through from the 5-yard line, and Joe Cor- coran made it 13-0 on his try for the conversioa Pat Greeno played his usual standout game while Viola, Jerry and Gene Robinson and Vic Tomyl also played good ball. Many of the underclassmen got into the game and some show great possibilities such as Tom Cocco with his bone-crushing tackle, Vin Jarmulowicz at end and hard charging Tippy Murphy. Concord 20 — Maynard 6 October 9 Rival Concord snapped whatever dreams Maynard had of an unbeaten, untied, and unscored upon season by handing them their first setback 20-6, after May- nard’s three consecutive shutout victories. The May- nard hopes of victory ran high in the game with their arch-enemies but the team failed to capitalize on breaks. The Maynardites often outplayed their op- ponents, but long runs kept them from the Glory ( 17)
