Angie Greeno you all know about, For she can give the loudest shout. Mary Lehto, who cheers for our team Is in every football hero’s dream. Joanne Paananen, to her we yield, As she cheers for our boys on the field. Margie O ' Connell leaps with the rest; We all know she’s one of the best. Carol Clark is our red flame, Helping Maynard toward football fame. Pat O’Clair with her burst of laughter Is a girl that’s well worth looking after.

Ashes to ashes and dust to dust If Concord doesn’t beat you, Clinton must.” That was just one of the many problems Vin Was- sel, new head coach, must face. It has been a long time since Maynard has beaten either of these clubs, but the Owls of ”49” may change this. The squad is headed by Co-captains Scoop Viola and Chris Rudolph” Cutaia, two of outstanding ability. When this magazine appears before your eyes, the following boys will have become men: Bobby Holly, Frank Case, Archie Rogers, Chris Cutaia, Billy O’Toole, Ed Ro manowski, John Perillo, Dickie Alberi, Danny Dintino and Scoop Viola, all a line group of boys. Good luck gang, from the student body. Maynard 32 — St. Mary ' s (Brookline) 7 September 25, 1949 The Owls opened their season by crushing the Saints 32-7. Dickie Alberi scored three times and your boy and mine, Scoop Viola, tallied once with Rogers converting one and O’Toole getting the other. In the first period, Alberi scored from the 5 and a little later Viola scored from the 16. In the second period, Dickie Alberi again hit paydirt, this time from the 21. Scoop Viola scored his second touch down in the second period, also as he bulled his way over from the 11. In the fourth period, Dickie Alberi ended Maynard’s scoring by going over un- molested from the 37. In the third period Smith scored for the Saints’ only score. This looks like a glorious season for Viola, Alberi, and Rogers. Maynard 13 — Hudson 6 October 1, 1949 Stan Bondelevitch’s outfit put up a good fight, but Scoop Viola led the underdog Warriors to a breath taking 13-6 win. Scoopie” tallied both touchdowns on runs of 17 and 65 yards in the first and second periods respectively. Archie Rogers converted after the first one. Hudson was trailing 13-0 in the final period when it finally appeared that the Orange and Black were too tired to hang on. Bobby Rochelan broke away on a 48 yard run to hit paydirt and the score was 13-6. Hudson quickly got the ball again and started once more toward the goal. Just when it seemed evident that the Hawks would score again, Gee Creepies” Jarmulowicz recovered a fumble and Maynard still had the ball when time ran out. The Owls played a very good ball game and you can just imagine how Coach Wassel must have felt. Concord 20 — Maynard 0 October 8, 1949 The Wassel Warriors dropped a heart breaker to Concord at Emerson Playground to give Coach Megin’s boys their thirty second win without defeat. In the first period, Maynard started rolling, but a fumble on the five gave Concord possession. In the second period, Ryan scored on an end sweep and King passed to Leo Bayeur for the conversion. Just before the end of this period Jackie King, fading back to pass and hemmed in by five opposing line men, broke away and went forty-five yards to scoie. In the third period Chipper Pierce scampered 55 yards to score, and Jimmy McKenna converted to make it 20-0. The Owls played a good ball game, but this just wasn’t their day. Maynard 33 — Wayland 6 October 15, 1949 The Maynard fans were let down by the loss of Bill O ' Toole who was hurt in the Concord game. Charlie Wattu, a Junior, filled O’Toole’s shoes very well. Wayland kicked off. Maynard marched down the field to the four where Tommy Cocco plunged over. An exchange of punts and that was the first period. Maynard came back at the end of the first period, marched down the field where Alberi took the leather over. A march by Wayland was choked by the Owls. The Wassel men then started to march again but they in turn were choked off. At the end of the second quarter the score stood Maynard 13, Wayland 0. Maynard started the second half with the loss of Romanowski, who was hurt in the second quarter. He was replaced by Perillo. In the opening minutes of the second half on his 50 yard line Perillo rifled a pass to Dick Alberi in the end zone and Alberi galloped for a touch-down. Rogers converted ; the score was now 19-0. Wayland lost the ball on downs. Captain Scoop Viola” then hugged the leather 54 yards into pay dirt. Rogers again converted making the score 26-0. Wayland then began to roll. They brought the ball down to the third where Don Place of Wayland carried over, Maynard 26, Wayland 6. Dick Alberi then went 20 yards for the finale, Rogers converting for the final score Maynard 33, Wayland 6. Credit should be given in this game to Charlie Wattu, our two Co-captains, Chris Cutaia and Scoop Viola, and to Scoop’s running mate, Dick Alberi. (i5)
