“Mabel”
♦ ♦ ♦
Whose personality is the best known at Mal¬
den High School? Who always has a smile ready,
no matter how pressing are her myriad tasks?
Why that’s “Mabel”, everybody’s pal. Miss Me
Questen, private secretary to our head master for
five years, has never really severed her ties with
Malden High School since her graduation in
1923. She has always shown great interest in all
school activities and has offered many a helping
hand to befuddled students. “Mabel” has missed
only three Malden football games in twenty-seven
years and .she did not allow a small distance of
1,500 miles prevent her from witnessing Malden’s
triumph over Lee High of Jacksonville, Florida.
You have ever been at our side; exulting in
our triumphs, .sympathizing with our defeats, thus
you have become exceptionally dear to us. We
wish to express our thanks by conferring upon you
the greatest honor we are able. To you. Miss
Mabel McQuesten, we dedicate our yearbook.
Miss McQuesten and her brother board
the plane for Florida. “Mabel” is wearing
the orchid presented to her by the boys
of the football squad for her enduring
loyalty to the team.
3n Appreciation ...
When we think of our days in Malden High School, we will always
remember with a great deal of pleasure two of Malden’s most loyal
teachers, Miss Cora Lane and Miss Florence Whittum. Their efficient
manners and friendly dispositions have won them a warm spot in the
heart of everyone who has ever come in contact with them. It is very
difficult to express the deep appreciation which we feel toward these
teachers. The entire school joins in wishing them all the luck and happi¬
ness due them.
M iss Lane, an alumna of Mal¬
den High School, is one of the
charter members of “Usona”.
She came back as a teacher in
1912, and has since taught nearly
every commercial subject. At the
present, she instructs only in Com¬
mercial geography.
Miss Whittum has been an in¬
structor at Malden High since
1922, when she began as a teacher
of Ancient History and Latin.
She has always been busy plan¬
ning and working for the Latin
Honor Society, which she founded
in 1925.
This year the city of Malden is celebrating its
Tercentenary. Therefore, we of the Maldonian
Staff have endeavored to bring to mind through
the pages of our yearbook the places and activities
which depict our daily school life, as well as our
progress in the community during this era. An
example of the growth of Malden, both in popu¬
lation and size is afforded by the contrast of the
little school house presided over by Ezekiel Jen¬
kins with the modern M. H. S. with its brick
building covering an entire block and housing
over 1800 students. Malden has not developed in
stature alone; but it has grown from a small group
of Englishmen to a thriving cosmopolitan city
with people of all races and creeds working and
striving together.

GREAT EXPECTATIONS
In May of this year Malden celebrated the
three-hundredth anniversary of its founding.
Think what that means! Your city, from its
settlement to the present, has seen our country
grow from a wilderness to one of the leading
powers in the world today.
You Forty-Niners, like your city, began your
educational careers with little but, like it, have
come far. Your parents and the schools have done
their best for you. See that you measure up to
your responsibilities and their expectations! Of
those to whom much has been given, much is
expected.
CHESTER VV. HOLMES,
Superintendent of Schools
Superintendent of Schools
Dr. Chester W. Holmes
Zhe Sehool Moard
The School Committee, under the lead¬
ership of Dr. Chester W. Holmes, has
introduced the Rinehart system of pen¬
manship replacing the Palmer method.
Miss Ida Dyke and Miss Virginia Bell
have been appointed new head clerks with
the retirement of Miss Helen Davison and
the resignation of Mrs. Lilly Lyons and
Mrs. Mary Rosdahl. A uniform dismissal
date for Massachusetts high school seniors
to be announced in April will affect the
class of 1949. Following the plan of dis¬
tributive education the committee has
voted for girls’ vocational training. This
year also, much has been done to perfect
the guidance program. Improved apti¬
tude and preference tests have been given
to an increasing number of students.

Message
To the Members of the Class of 1949:
This year Malden is celebrating its three-hundredth anniversary. This is not
old when measured by the story of civilization, yet old in the story of our own
land. Those who have gone before us in Malden have left us a rich heritage
and this is particularly true of our own high school legacy. It seems to me, there¬
fore, that this would be an opportune time for the members of this class to
stop for a moment and reflect on those legacies. What you do with them is im¬
portant, and that you make the most of your gifts is a necessity. What is still
more important, it seems to me, is that you pass on to those who come after you
a better city and a better school. This you can do only by giving your best to the
ta.sk at hand. You would do well to remember that there is no substitute for
hard work . That is what we have tried to teach you here at school and I hope
with some degree of success. Take this philosophy with you as you leave this
school and put it into operation. Keep always in mind your inheritance and
resolve to leave your city and your school a better place for your having lived
there.
Most sincerely,
JOHN B. MATTHEWS
Our Assistant Executives
MISS EDNA TURKINGTON
As Dean of Girls, Miss Turkington
will always be remembered and
thanked for the service she has given
to M. H. S. girls. They have bene-
fitted greatly from her talks on col¬
leges and their requirements; the as¬
semblies she has arranged on man¬
ners and grooming and on specialized
careers; and her help in arranging
school programs. Every morning she
can be seen patiently receiving ab¬
sence slips. The National Honor So¬
ciety Installation is also under her
able direction.
MISS GRACE CROWE
Miss Crowe, who has been in our
school system for seventeen years,
joined our high school staff this year.
She was appointed to take the place
of Mrs. Sarah Hayford who passed
away during the summer. She is
health counselor to students and fac¬
ulty and renders first aid in all emer¬
gencies. For the first time she is
administering sight and hearing tests.
The vision testing machine which she
uses, is the new gift of the Lions
Club. Adequate follow-up work of
physical defects is done and com¬
plete medical records of all students
are kept.
MISS HELENE MOORE
Miss Helene Moore, the Director
of Guidance, works with the Seniors
taking College Boards and N.R.O.T.C.
tests. She has made individual ap¬
pointments for pupils with schools
and industry, and with professional
men, to talk over possible careers.
She has explained the results of the
Boston University Battery Tests to
each of the more than three hundred
seniors. She handles all applications
for work and all placements. Before
Christmas she taught Retail Selling
for all students who wished to work
in the stores.
rtioair
MR. ARTHUR LARSEN
Aside from his regular classes of
Law and Economics and the many
duties placed upon him by his posi¬
tion as head of the Commercial De¬
partment, Mr. Larsen serves as fac¬
ulty manager of athletics. In this
function he supervises the sale of
tickets to games and handles all ath¬
letic expenditures. In addition Mr.
Larsen is Junior Class Master, hand¬
ling the boys’ discipline problems.
Many times we see a group of breath¬
less students pouring in to his office
at 8:oi for Mr. Larsen has charge
of tardinesses.
MR. CLARKE BROOKES
Mr. Brookes, as coordinator of the
extra-curricula activities at M. H. S.,
is always ready and happy to assist
us in all school functions. As Sopho¬
more Class Master his advice is there
for the asking. In this capacity, too,
he handles the boys’ disciplinary
problems. It is necessary to consult
Mr. Brookes if one wishes to engage
the auditoriums, the club room or
the music room for any activities. All
engagements are listed on his register,
when student programs are made
out Mr. Brookes is there to assist.
MR. ROBERT PERRY
Mr. Perry, head of the Science De¬
partment and Physics and Aeronau¬
tics teacher also finds time to be
Senior Class Master. In this posi¬
tion he looks out for all problems of
senior boys. Every spring we find
Mr. Perry and his assistants makin"
out program sheets for the next school
year. As we pass room 109 in the
morning we find him busily checkin'^
in all absent boys. In addition Mr.
Perry is director of school supplies.

Office Staff
Faculty Assistants
Miss Mabel McQuesten, Mr. Matthew’s sec¬

teachers of commercial subjects, constitute the
nucleus of efficiency and service in our school. In
addition to their regular office duties, they page
us for forgotten lunches, make program changes,
announce belated assignments on our P. A. system,
house lost and found articles, and prepare the
bulletin every day. They patiently answer our
myriad of questions and help us fill out College
Board Blanks. After school, they give out appli¬
cations for bus tickets to a steady stream of stu¬
dents. We shall remember the geniality which

filing absence and tardy notes, typing college data,
taking care of correspondence, and keeping files
in good order for Miss Turkington, Miss Moore,
Mr. Brookes, Mr. Larsen, Mr. Merry, and Mr.
McGuirk. The entire senior class has at one time

MAINTENANCE
Without the aid of this unrewarded but ab¬
solutely necessary department Malden High would
never be as clean and well kept as it always is.
Whether it’s snow to shovel, furnaces to be kept
up, grounds to be cared for, or halls to be swept,
the job is done and done well. In addition to
these duties one member of the department is al¬
ways present at school functions to help with stage
preparations and lights. When there are broken
lockers to whom do the complaints go? This
same group of men and women. We wish them to
know that we the students realize the responsi¬
bilities they have and we take this opportunity to
thank them.
Miles and miles of floors to sweep!

tures had been completed, the clubs, features,
faculty, and sports were next in line. Meanwhile,
the members of the Art Staff were wracking their
brains for ideas to illustrate the 300th anniversary
theme. Maldonian photographers either worked
in the darkroom with their new enlarger or raced
around the school and the city taking activity and
advertising shots. Advertising staff members
coaxed and wheedled Malden merchants for ads.
A few highlights of the year were the trip to the
Columbia Press Conference in New York, and
informative visits to the printer, engraver, and
book-binder. Finally everything was completed.
The result of this toil is before you. Remember

THE
BLUE
AND
GOLD
Co-editors John Bowman and Carolyn Snow con- FOUNDED 1915
suit Miss Tribble, adviser to the Blue and Gold, before
sending the final copy to the printer.
Gathering every day in Room 217, The Blue
and Gold literary staff sets busily to work to meet
their fifteen yearly deadlines. In order to “hit”
the homerooms on Friday afternoon, the staff
gathers the news and feature stories which are
typed for the printer and sent in at the beginning
of the week. When the copy returns from the
printer on Wednesday, part of the staff reads the
proofs while others cut up the galleys and paste
the stories on the dummy sheets. Sports items
and late news are often inserted to keep the news
up to the minute, and the staff labors over head¬
lines and consumes cartons of Karmel Korn before
the paper is finally “put to bed”. The staff gives
it a final proofreading on Thursday, then settles
back to await the appearance of the finished copy
on Friday afternoon. Friday’s issue is the result
of the combined efforts of the literary, circulation,
and business staffs who blend their talents to pre-
.sent M.H.S. with one of the best high school pap¬
ers in the country. For the fourth consecutive
year. The Blue and Gold again earned a first place
rating in the Columbia Scholastic Press Association.
Without the able guidance of Literary Adviser
Mary G. Tribble, and Business Adviser, Paul C.
Smith, 7 he Blue and Gold would not be the out¬
standing school paper that it is.
The four editors tn charge of features, sports, pho¬
tography, and news are Stanley Saxe, Eliot Castillo,
Robert Kimball, and Rose Church, who do their utmost
to turn out a successful newspaper.
Behind the scenes in Room 2iy we find the liter¬
ary staff concentrating on pasting up the dummy copy
of the Blue and Gold.

Weather Bureau
Founded 1941
Members of the Weather Bureau plot a graph for upper air
conditions after sending up a balloon at Bedford Airport as Lt.
Hopkins supervises. Their upper air soundings were sent out
teletype at 12 o’clock to all stations in the United States.
The Malden High School Weather Bureau
ha.s made many advances in the past three years
under the capable guidance of Miss Annie F.
Slattery, meteorology instructor. The addition of
many new instruments aided greatly in more
accurate forecasting. Included in this group of
instruments is the new theodolite made by the
vocational school, which may be used for taking
wind directions and velocities at high altitudes.
Members of the 1948-1949 staff will long re¬
member the time when they gave Miss McQuesten
the “go ahead” on her trip to watch the “Gator
Bowl” game when the official U. S. Weather
Bureau “grounded” all planes. Some of the mem¬
bers include: George Dawson, Chief Meteorolo¬
gist, Richard Maine, Assistant Chief Meteorologist,
Sylvia Higgins, Robert Shelton, James Reynolds,
and Lee Ellen Slocum.
“On stage, everybody!” These words, which
are sounded throughout the theatrical world ev¬
eryday, also find their way to the Malden High
School Greenroom Dramatic Society. The society
gives an opportunity for those interested in dra¬
matics to develop their dramatic ability. Kemp-
ton Webb, President, or John Bowman, Vice-
President, presides over the meetings every other
Tuesday afternoon. Greenroom is indeed fortu¬
nate to have Miss Madge C. Leslie as adviser.
The Society’s activities have been limited this year,
however, the presentation of “The Valiant” by
Holworthy Hall and Richard Middlemass was a
highlight of the Inter-Club Play Contest on Febru¬
ary II, 1949. Members of the cast were Kemp-
ton Webb, John Bowman, Lawrence Spector,
Carrie Sue Wright, William Robertson and Law¬
rence Cherkas. Greenroom not only received a
cup for the presentation of the best play that even¬
ing, but Lawrence Spector received the award
for the best actor.

Cog
Founded 1923
President Herbert Burstein and Cog adviser, Mr. Bruce A.
Gilchrist congratulate Mr. Max Goldberg, prominent Malden at¬
torney for his talk on the F. B. I. at a Cog meeting.
“Cognoscendi Causa”—for the cause of learn¬
ing. This phrase aptly describes the purpose of
this .society—to elevate and maintain the high :
esteem of Malden High School and to raise the |
standard of public speaking here. This is carried j
out best by the annual David M. Katz Memorial 1
Prize Speaking Contest, which is held each year
to determine the three best orators in the school.
The co-chairmen of the 1949 contest, Leonard
Bates and Arnold Sager, presented cash awards
to the winners—ist, Lawrence Spector; 2nd, Mar¬
tina Van Oosten; 3rd, Kempton Webb. Cog is
remembered every year at the Senior Banquet,
since it presents a cup to the class orator. The
Cog debating team, one of the finalists in the De¬
bate League Series, had a very successful season. ,
Mr. Gilchrist coached a team consisting of Her¬
bert Burstein, Howard Margolis, Marvin Glaser,
and Lawrence Stone. President Herbert Burstein ,
and Adviser Mr. Bruce Gilchrist have indeed
cooperated well to make Cog one of this year’s
most active societies.
The Convenimus Ad Meditandum Society
has undertaken another year of activities under the
able leadership of Adviser Miss Aldine C. Gilman
and President Phyllis Bloom. Its first project was
the Community Fund Drive in which Chairman
Phyllis Bloom and Treasurer Claire Loss, assisted
by floor captains Marilyn Strogoff, Eleanor Zim¬
merman, Phyllis Sade, and Barbara Rosenthal, col¬
lected $650. Cam’s first Alumnae Banquet was
held December 20, 1948, in the Music Room, un¬
der the supervision of Joan Cross and Pauline
Charef. With over 60 past and present Cam
members in attendance, the girls provided a lively
evening’s entertainment of songs popular since
Cam’s founding. Combining with Cog, in the
Inter-Club Play Contest on February ii, 1949,
Cam presented “The Wonder Hat” by Ben Hecht.
Marilyn Savage, a Cam member, won the award
for being the best actress. Another Cam-spon.sorcd
event which included both teachers and students
of the school was the annual Professor Quiz on
March 28, 1949. Lena Friedman and Rosalie
Henkin were co-chairmen of this affair in which
Mr. John B. Matthews .served as quizmaster.

Lit
Founded 1872
The results are sure to be in Lit’s favor! Here we find the
notorious debaters John Murdock, Eliot Castillo, Meredith Hands¬
picker, and John Bowman preparing for their debate with P. S. C.
as Mr. Queally supervises.
President Walter Brough and adviser, Mr.
John J. Queally have continually helped to keep
up the fine reputation of the Literary Society, the
oldest of its kind in the United States. Each April,
Lit sponsors a Short Story Contest, which is open
to the entire school. Judges are members of the
faculty. This year the chairman of this project
was John Murdock, who carried out the contest
very successfully. The 76th Annual Banquet and
Reunion was held November 26, 1948, under the
direction of Eliot Castillo and his committee, where
speeches were given by Walter Brough, Headmas¬
ter John B. Matthews, members of the U. S.
Army, and by the “Lit Infant”, Philip Bowman.
Further entertainment was provided by the other
Lit men. The football team captained by Edgar
Lovell and Alfred MacWilliams split the grueling
Lit-Cog football series with one win and one loss.
To round out a well balanced year. Lit participated
with Usona in the Inter-Club Play Contest in an
original revue entitled, “A Young Man’s Fancy.”
Under the capable guidance of adviser, Miss
Edna E. Turkington and president, Jean MacCuish^
Usona has accomplished much this year. High¬
lighting the 1948-1949 season, was the March of
Dimes Drive, which Usona successfully sponsored
under the direction of Jean MacCuish and treas¬
urer, Carrie Sue Wright. Floor captains, Beverly
Barrett, Lois Beatteay, Laure-Helene Bruneau,
Helen Doll, Helen Strang and the home room
canvassers collected $200. At the annual Cam-
Usona football game held October 29, 1948, Usona
won by a score of 34-0, and the same evening
entertained members of Cam, Cog, and Lit at
their Victory Dance in the small gymnasium. The
theme of a Swedish Smorgasbord was carried out
by Katherine Frost and her committee at the
annual Mother and Daughter Night on November
5, 1948, in the small gymnasium. Entertainment
was provided by the Usona Choir, and Helen
Strang and Louise Kozel, who introduced the
.senior members. In combination with Lit, Usona
entered the Inter-Club Play Contest, presenting
an unusual revue, “A Young Man’s Fancy.”

Mr. Wiggin acted as moderator at P. S. C. panel discussion on
Capitalism vs. in December. Speakers contributing
to the talk were Richard Clay, Jane Gilman, Stanley Saxe, John
Murdock, Louise Kozel, and Meredith Handspicker.
The Political Science Club has carried out its
purpose of furthering the interests of its members
in world affairs and government under the guid¬
ance of Mr. Morton H. Wiggin, Adviser, and
Joan McBeth, President. Meredith Handspicker
prepared for the program of the January 5, 1949,
meeting, a panel discussion on “The Chinese
Crisis,” which took place in the Club Room with
Miss Edna E. Turkington, Miss Annie E. Slattery,
and Mr. Wiggin participating. John Murdock
was moderator. “Up to the minute” news has
been posted on the P. S. C. Bulletin Board outside
of Room 109 by Loretta MacKenna. Another
club project was the “Clay Poll,” taken to derive
the choice of the students if they were voters in
the national elections. Truman was elected, prov¬
ing that M.H.S. students are good judges. At the
April meeting, Mr. Albert Chambon, French con¬
sul in Boston, addressed all interested students in
the Economics of France. The year ended with
the annual P. S. C. outing, which was one of
the “best ever.”
The bi-monthly gatherings of the English
Club under the guidance of Adviser Mrs. Marion
Gillis and Prexy Marvin Neipris allow M.H.S.
students to further interest in English literature
and to take part in worthwhile recreation. The
club had several intra-club debates at meet¬
ings with the members acting as judges, besides
participating in the Round Robin Debate Series.
Initiations were interesting and amusing with new
members presenting pantomimes and readings for
the entertainment of the club. One of the high¬
lights of the year was the Fourteenth Annual Inter-
Club Play Contest, under Co-chairmen Stanley
Saxe and Claire Loss. During the intermission a
lecturn was presented to the school by Marvin
Neipris. The English Club sponsored the track
team in 1949 as is its custom, managing its pub¬
licity and showing its appreciation of the team by
pre.senting a trophy to the most outstanding mem¬
ber.
Committee chairmen for the Inter-Club Play Contest confer
with Mrs. Gillis during the dress rehearsal on February 10, 1949, to
check over all parts of the program to assure its success. Standing

Latin Honor Society
Founded 1925
Walter Brough, Eleanor Zimmerman, Rose Church, Nisson
Sherman, and Lillian Smith portray characters in an excerpt from
Virgil’s “Aeneid”, during Latin Night, March 4, iQ4g.
The Latin Honor Society under the leader¬
ship of Adviser Florence E. Whittum and Presi¬
dent Marilyn M. Strogoff, this year carried on
many new activities as well as the regularly
scheduled affairs. The first undertaking of the
year was a program presided over by Marilyn
Strogoff, for all Latin students wherein the func¬
tions of the Society and the context of the Latin
syllabus were explained. A Christmas party in
combination with Le Cercle Francais and De
Deutsche Ehrenvercin was held in the small gym
on December 16, 1948. The annual Parents’ Night,
under the chairmanship of Ruth Wolff took place
March 4, 1949, with the .sophomores, juniors, and
.seniors presenting skits on the Latin subjects they
were studying. The meetings, too, w'ere inter¬
esting, as well as educational. Speakers were
Miss Madge C. Leslie and Dr. J. Russell Bow¬
man of the English Department. Slides were
shown of the “Wanderings of Aeneas.” A white
elephant sale took place at the April meeting.
The end of the year came all too soon, but it
was finished in a great way by a final farewell
party for the seniors.
Parlez-vous bien le francais? All the members
of the French Club speak French, for that is the
basic requirement for joining this organization.
The 1949 membership, with Betty Atwood as
President and Mr. Louis Melanson as faculty
adV’iser, has enjoyed many different types of
meetings. French songfests, games, and speakers
on different aspects of French life have been pre¬
sented by Claire Loss, Vice-President and Program
Chairman. The most amusing portion of the
meetings came when the roll was called. Mem¬
bers had to answer to their names by calling out
French proverbs or the names of French foods.
Le Cercle Francais sponsored its annual French
Soiree on March 17, 1949 with Barbara Rosen¬
thal as general chairman. The highlight of the
evening was the presentation of “Nous les Gosses”,
one of the popular French films of the day.
At the Christmas party given by the language clubs, John
Bowman, Ruth Wolff, and Kempton Webb were French Club’s
contribution. Their skit was a take-off on a morning program.

De Deutsche
Ehrenverein
Founded 1939
The German band of Carl Goodwin, Walter Brough, and
William Madison entertained at the combined Christmas party of
Latin, French, and German clubs held in the small gym on Decem¬
ber 16, 1948.
The German Honor Society, one of the most
active linguistic organizations of the school, has
just closed out a year of many and varied activi¬
ties. Among the many phases of the Society’s
program, sponsorship of the Annual Red Cross
Drive ranks as one of the most important. Per¬
haps the single event of the year which will be
remembered best is the bicycle hike to Break-
heart last fall. This year the Society not only had
a Christmas party of its own, but also helped the
other two language societies in conducting a joint
Christmas party. During the February vacation
the members spent a memorable evening at a gala
roller skating party, under the Chairmanship of
Bob Shultz and Henry Greebe. At this writing
plans for the annual German Parents’ Night are
being made, the proceeds of which are to go for
a $50 scholarship to the highest ranking German
student. President Nisson Sherman and Adviser
Miss Dorothy Briggs have worked together to
make this year one of the most memorable both
for reasons of enjoyment and furthering of the
student’s interest in the German language.
The Camera Club, under the guidance of
Adviser Mr. Reginald Steeves, and President Wil¬
liam Fisher, has had a most active 1948-1949
season. A group headed by Bob Kimball and
Sumner Seigal took a trip on the Boston and
Maine Snow Train to North Conway, New Hamp¬
shire, during the winter, and brought back a
number of interesting pictures. Lectures by the
prominent Malden commercial photographer
Sumner C. Davis on filters, lenses, and light were
presented at the meetings. Bill Fisher and Mr.
Steeves also gave instructions in darkroom pro¬
cedure, developing, printing, and enlarging. Early
in the school year, the Camera Club took a poll

jects as plant life and animal life. As another
activity, for the first time in its history, the Biolo¬
gy Club members entered into their own actual
quantitative analysis of certain food nutrients

CHOIR
Founded 1943
Although its membership is but thirty-four,
nevertheless the choir exemplifies the saying of
Douglas Jerrold: “Quality, not quantity, is the
measure.” Meeting during the “S” period on
Thursday and Friday, the Choir has trained male
and female voices to blend, and to provide the
finest type of choral singing. The requirements
for joining the Choir are a good voice and an
interest in mu.sic. It has sung at the Junior
Varieties, the Musical Festival at Lincoln Junior
High, and the Rotary Club. At the Christmas
Assembly, it sang, with the Junior Shubert and
the MacDowell Club, “Hallelujah Chorus” and
“Glory to God”. The Choir is a participant in
the Annual Spring Concert on April 29.
The Choir, combined with the
other musical organizations sings
“Hallelujah Chorus” at the Christ¬
mas Assembly on December 18.
On March ly, 1949, in the Jenkins
Auditorium, the Jr. Schubert Club
sang "When Irish Eyes Are Smiling”,
with the entire school joining in af¬
terwards, at its Annual St. Patrick’s
Day Assembly.
Junior Schubert Club
Founded 1934
Have you heard the music coming from the
music room during the “S” period each Monday?
That was the Junior Schubert Club, with its mem¬
bership of sixty-four, rehearsing for a musical
event. Both “Lord Jeffrey Amherst” and “The
Bulldog and the Bullfrog” are rehearsal favorites
of the club. Under the direction of “maestro”
Robert K. Love, the Junior Schubert Club opened
another successful .season at the Christmas As-
.sembly on December 21, 1948. It sang for “Chuck”
Crosbie’s sport broadcast on WCOP. Twenty-six
boys, in black face, sang old southern favorites in
the chorus at the annual Kiwanis Min.strel Show on
November 3. Along with the other musical or¬
ganizations, the club also participates in the An¬
nual Spring Concert.

The MacDowell Club, founded by the
late Miss Harriett M. Perkins, combined
with the Junior Schubert Club and the
Choir at the Christmas Assembly on De¬
cember 21, where they sang “Hallelujah
Chorus” and “Glory to God”, besides such
familiar Christmas Carols as “Silent

Noel.”
DOWELL CLUB
Founded 1933
The most important activity of the year
for the girls is the Annual Spring Concert
in April. They will sing Victor Herbert
favorites; “Calm as the Night”; and
“Braid the Raven Hair” from the “Mi¬
kado”. Together with the full chorus
they will sing “The Lost Chord” and “This

JUNIOR
CLASS
The juniors came back to Malden High
in September with plans for a bu,sy year.
Almost immediately Leila Sibley and Har¬
ry Meline, as co-chairmen of the Pigskin
Hop, began making preparations for the
first dance, held in the Marshall Gym¬
nasium in November. The committee did
a fine job and led the dance to a success¬
ful finish.
After choosing the council, the class
turned their thoughts to the serious task
of electing a competent group of officers
to direct the activities of the year. They
showed good judgment in their selection.
Next on the agenda was the Junior
Varieties. Under the able leadership of
Miss Wetmore, with the assistance of
co-chairmen Helen Doll and Leonard
Bates and their hard-working committees,
the Romany Rendezvous won the deserv¬
ing praise of the school.
The junior class looks forward to the
prom as a pleasant ending to a successful
year. They plan to go on to greater
heights during their remainnig days at
Malden High School.

outstanding ability to lead the class in its various pro¬
jects. Seated: Harry Stathopoulos, president; Mary
Eisan, secretary. Standing,- Gabriel Didio, treasurer;
Joseph McVane, assistant treasurer; Diane Nester, as¬
sistant secretary; Marian Desmonde, vice-president.

relieved by sophomores. J. Mayne, S. Shufro, R. Krite-
man, K. Tilton, D. Alpert, and head assistant, J. Moreau.
Bottom: One of the highlights of the junior year
is the selection of class rings. John Adamo of the Mal¬
den Jewelry helps Dorothy Baum, Charlotte Fox, Dorothy
Ullian, and Lawrence Spector make their choice.
Bottom: The success of the Junior Varieties was
due to the unceasing efforts of these committee chair¬
men who planned and prepared the Romany Rendez¬
vous.

The Golden
“Give a buck for the bowl team,” that
was the cry at the conclusion of the
1948 football season at as the
galloping Golden Tornado romped to a
Class “A” Championship.
The team, headed by a line unsur¬
passed in the State and a backfield which

one of the most spirited and cooperative
ever assembled in the history of M.H.S.
The ends, John Saxon, All-Star Joe
Connors and Harry Stathopoulos, along
with their brilliant defensive work, ac¬
complished the blocking and pass catch¬
ing. Also, “Big Jim” Mangan opened the
monstrous holes for the backs; at left
guard was George Stein, all-round offen¬
sive line backer; the scrappy, battle-scarred
veteran, Len McNamara had a tremen¬
dous season at the pivot spot; Jim Buono¬
pane, our all-scholastic co-captain spirited
sufficiently from his sentry post, to be
chosen “lineman of the year!” TValter
The all-important coin-flip in the
Brockton encounter, Malden received
the kick-off and won in a thriller,
21-6 at the Pearl Stteet Stadium.

BALL
Tornado
Rcinstein proved his ability in the Brock- ^
ton encounter; De Pietro showed promises
of greatness while substituting for George
Stein; John Fucci was a standout at the
other end. The back-field was composed
of offensive “Fudgie” Tortorella, the brus-
ing Bull, who shared fullback duties with
defensive Arnie Sackmary and Bernie
Maiuri; at halfback positions, we had All-
Scholastic Co-Captain Don Mackey, one
of the leading scorers in the state, who
swivel-hipped his way though the oppo¬
sition, and his touchdown twin, the “fleet
merchant,” Dan Duggan, best defensive
player Malden has seen in many a moon.
Leo Carey and Gene Duggan did the im¬
portant job of substitution ball carrying
for M.H.S. The brains of the team was
quarter-back Mike Gasparello, whose
smart signal-calling and adept ball hand¬
ling always kept the Tornado ahead of
their opponents. Last but not least was
the boy with the educated toe, Don Kclli-
hcr.
Mackey’s touchdown twin, Dan Duggan, rips off

Florida flurries
Malden’s undefeated football eleven accepted a post-season bowl bid. They were picked by Fred
Foye, the northern representative for the Kiwanis Charity Bowl Game, to meet the southern defending
champions, Robert E. Lee High of Jacksonville, Florida.
The game itself, which saw the Blue versus the Gray on a field of honor, was a thrill-packed,
hard, clean-fought tournament. The game shortly under way saw All-Scholastic Don Mackey climax
a sustained march of 50 yards to score the T. D. in favorable fashion.
The remainder of the game was a terrific battle. Both teams looked for scoring opportunities, but
unable to find them, exchanged punts. Dan Duggan, late in the fourth quarter, intercepted a pass on his
own 16 and started the 84 yard drive to another Malden T. D. Ironically enough Dan trotted 16 yards
to score the T. D. on the famed Bootleg play. The game ended! Coaches, parents, relatives, and 32
subs swarmed the field to congratulate their boys. Cheering sections from other Florida high schools
bolstered the morale of our team.
1. Friday, December 7, was a good day for the Gol¬
den Tornado. This was the day that the team
left for Florida, to play their post-season tilt with
Lee High of Jacksonville, Florida. The team left
from the high school by bus, and went directly
to South Station.
2. .\t South Station the team boarded a streamliner
called the “Speedway”. On the train the fellows
were busy playing cards, and posing for the many
newspaper photographers who were busy snapping
flash bulbs. At New York the team changed trains,
and boarded a new streamliner where they were
escorted to their sleepers. All meals were eaten
in the dining car.
3. Fhe team arrived at Jacksonville at 9:00 A.M.
They were greeted by the Lee High band, cheer¬
leaders, and the opposing squad. Co-Captains Mac-
key and Buonopane seem to be enjoying their re¬
ception. (Oh, for the life of a co-captain.)
4. On Monday morning the team left for Jacksonville
Naval Base where they held all their practice ses¬
sions. I he sessions were fast and furious, the main
purpose being to get the team accustomed to the
weather and playing conditions. Pictured here are
Joe Connors, flarry Stathopolous, George Stein,
Len McNamara, Jim Buonopane, Jim Mangan, and
John Saxon.
5. .Arrival of game night, December 14th, found the
boys fighting high tension nerves before game time.
Wearing the Crimson and White jerseys borrowed
from Harvard College, the Tornado was undis-
putedly the best dressed team on the field. Here
is shown a picture of the boys about to leave their
hotel with many parents and friends on hand to
cheer them on.
6. Walter Reinstein, Jim Mangan, Joe Davidson,
Frank Tortorella, John Saxon, and John Tortorella
are standing before the entrance to the Windsor
Hotel. They are waiting to go on one of their
several special cruises. The team visited such
sights as the oldest house, in St. Augustine, the
fountain of youth, and also saw the wonders of
Marine Land.
7. On their way home, the whole crew stopped off
at Washington to see some of the historical sights.
They visited Mount Vernon, and several important
buildings in the city designed by Frenchman Pierre
L’Enfant. At Washington the team and other
guests were warmly welcomed by Mr. Tobin, Sec¬
retary of Labor in President Truman’s cabinet.
Here, Coach McGuirk, Secretary Tobin and Coaches
Melanson and Wettergreen pose in front of the
Department of Labor building.
8. I he team won the game 14-0, and now the fel¬
lows deserve the long rest and good clean fun
that follows victory. Joe Connors, Herb Meuse,
Dan Duggan, Mike Gasparello, Harry Stathopolous,
and Gene Duggan are lounging around in the
hotel lobby. The day before the game, the team
attended a banquet given in their honor. Follow¬
ing this was a visit to Lee High School and other
surrounding educational institutions.
9. Upon their arrival, the squad went to the Windsor
Hotel, where they were going to remain during
their stay at Jacksonville. The boys were divided
two to a room. .Across the street was a beautiful
park, which gave a beautiful view from most of
the windows.
10. “Cruising Down the River On A Sunday After¬
noon” is the song that these relaxing vacationists
are singing. From left to right are Coach Melan¬
son, Faculty adviser, Mr. Larson, Headmaster
Matthews, Mr. Queally, Head custodian, Mr. Finn,
Coach McGuirk, and Doc Solomon, team physician.
This excursion led down the St. Johns River to the
Naval Base.
11. Leaving the .Annapolis Hotel, (where they stayed')
the boys toured the town seeing such famous sights
as Smithsonian Institute, The U. S. Mint, The Tomb
of the Unknown Soldier, the Capitol, and the
Department of Labor. Here they posed with an¬
other celebrity, Maurice Tobin, I.abor Head. He
later sent a copy of the photo to everyone in the
picture.
12. The night that the team came home was a dreary,
rainy night, but the students of the high school
couldn’t be prevented from welcoming home the
players. The squad was met at South Station by a
group led by Mayor Lamson. They came home by
bus, and were met at the Everett line by the police
and firemen who escorted them to the high .school.
Thus ended the most enjoyable two-week vacation
of their high school career.
Co-captains Lee Morgan and Dick Howard were
our high scoring pace-setters for the Mecury Men. Lee
ran in the looo, while Dick led in the 300 and the relay.

The first event in the meets was the 45 yard

team never lost this event. The next event was
the 50 yard dash. Dave Lamkin and Fran Dunn
held their own in this event and since both will
return next season they will bolster the squad con¬
siderably. The mile was a favorite race with the
spectators. Participating in this event were Fred

Completing one of their most successful sea¬
sons, the Golden Gale reeled oflf 15 victories out
of 20 contests in the toughest schedule the Malden
hoopsters have ever had. The starting quintet
was composed of some of the best M. H. S. players
ever assembled. Ralph King and “Red” Mauri-
ello were the outstanding forwards. Bill Murphy
had a terrific season; at the guard positions were
two grand athletes, Joe Connors and Arnie Sack-
mary. These five boys played almost all of the
40-minutes of every game. Jerry Cohen was one
of the main substitutes, along with Bill Henry and
“Gabber” Hartnett.
Ralph King and “Easy Bill” Murphy were the
top scorers on the team. They also ranked second
and third respectively in the Greater Boston League
BASKET
The Golden
scoring competition. King (who netted 181 points)
tallied 27 points in the Lowell game, the highest
for the year. “Red” Mauriello came close to
beating this record when he scored 25 points in
the Revere game. The second highest scorer. Bill
Murphy, achieved his total 166 points by consis¬
tent scoring in every game. Arnie Sackmary
scored 121 points this year. He e.xpects to dupli¬
cate this feat when he returns to the Gale next
season, as captain-elect. Joe Connors was not an
exceptionally high scorer, but his defensive plays
aided the Malden cause in no small measure.
In the Revere encounter, the Gale showed
their best form of the season and paced them¬
selves to a new record in the Marshall Gym by
tallying 90 points.

The Golden
Paced by their three all-star defensemen, Dick
“Blocking” Buckley, Len McNamara, and Dan
Dug^n, the Mafden High Golden Rods ended
their season with a five win, five loss slate. The
games were played every Saturday night at the
Boston Arena, with the eight teams which form
the Eastern Mass. Interscholastic Hockey League.
Composing the first line were: all-star Dan
Duggan, left wing; Paul McGinley, center; and
Jim Buonopane, right wing. The stellar defense-
men, both playing first string for the Esmass
League all-stars, were Len McNamara and Dick
Buckley. George Kolovson, the sophomore goalie,
showed signs of becoming a seeded player for the
coming years. On the second line were Walter
McNamara, left wing, and Dick Rodenheiser, cen¬
ter, along with standout John Garozza, right wing.
The main substitutes for the team were Jim Shea

and James Wallace. Both lines combined to out-
score their opponents. The opposition scored
nineteen goals, while the Golden Rods “lit the
lamp” twenty-two times.
Leading the Malden pucksters in the scoring
department, Dan Duggan tallied in every contest
except one. John Carozza handled his hockey
stick excellently, as he demonstrated in the Brook¬
line game when he shot a 30-footer into the nets.
The Co-Captains-Elect, of the Golden Rods, Wal¬
ter McNamara and Dick Rodenheiser, are eagerly
looking forward to regaining the title of “Esmass
League Champions” which was relinquished this
year, after two consecutive championship seasons.
Both the line forward and the defense pool their
efforts successfully to stop a Natick rush early in the
third period at Boston Arena. This first encounter with
Natick wound up with Malden on top 3-2.
Surrounded by Somerville players, George Kolovson
proves his ability by stopping a solo flight. The referee
nods his approval of the fair sportsmanship, but Malden
lost 3-0.
The Arena crowd roars, as Malden attempts to
score another goal against Natick. There is a shuffle
of skates, a clattering of hockey sticks, and a team yell,
but Natick turns aside the Malden threat. Malden lost
this second encounter 3-1.
A real action shot, showing the forlorn Natick goalie
looking into the net where Dan Duggan, number 2,

Champs Again. Once more having captured the sectional Rifle Champion¬

in a blaze of glory. Led by such capable men as Capt. Dave Burnham, Bernie
Hoflfman, Art Boudreau, George Nel.son, Bill Stickney, and Parker Strand, the
whole team proved themselves champs in their good showing in The Suburban
Scholastic Rifle League.
With many returnees, “Pop” Taylor, Malden’s unsurpassable Coach, plans
big things for his next year’s rifle men. Some of his returning veterans are Bou¬
dreau, Hoffman, and Strand, along with other capable marksmen such as Dave
Russell, Ernie Chionopoulos, Bob Mason, John Yates, and Dick Purth.

Girls' Rifle Club
To many of us in the high school the fourth floor just doesn’t exist, but to
Mr. Carl “Pop” Taylor the high school just wouldn’t exist without the fourth
floor. Here, every Wednesday and Thursday afternoon, Mr. Taylor meets with
over twenty-five feminine sharp-shooters in the rifle range to practice for their
coming matches. During the Winchester and Melrose games, Alice Ames proved
her ability as the outstanding shooter, with Carol Minchen, a sophomore, worthy
of honorable mention. Girls’ sports have advanced a long way since the pioneer
days, and we, here in Malden High are indeed proud of this group, enlarging
and bettering the team each year.
The team, with Phyllis Christie as captain, has had a victorious be¬
ginning with two wins to their credit over Winchester and Melrose.

Contributions to the 'Gator Bowl Fund grew by leaps and bounds
at the football games where the ushers, as pictured here, lent a helping
hand.
Football Ushers
Every Saturday afternoon over fifty of Malden High’s enthusiastic students
reported to the Pearl Street Stadium an hour or so before the game to usher
the storming crowds to their seats. Although the seating capacity of the sta¬
dium is 12,000 the overflowing crowds were willing to be ushered behind the
goal posts in order that they too, might see the champions in action. The
group was managed by Mr. A. Bruce Gilchrist and headed by Marjorie Lynch.
During the Everett and Medford games the increased crowds caused the need
for more students to offer their services as ushers. And so, wearing blue and
gold armbands, they joined together for the rest of the season.

Cheerleaders
The cheerleaders had a very busy season this year; for besides leading the
cheers and songs at every football game, they hustled about collecting money
for the ’Gator Bowl Fund in order that our victors might be assured a pleasant
trip. Coached by Miss Thelma Martel, Captain Jean Perrin and the rest of the
girls showed their great spirit in cheering at the basketball games too. On
January 21, in the Jenkins Auditorium, the cheerleaders again offered their ser¬
vices in leading cheers for the tran.scription on W.G.O.P. where “Chuck” Crosby
presided.
In sunshine or rain, whatever the purpose may be, these attractive dozen of

“Gold Rush
The class of ’49 presented its annual
Junior Varieties, March 14, 1948, as the
“Gold Rush Revue.” In the setting of a
“Cactus Junction”, the choir, attired as
members of a vaudeville group going to
the Gold Rush Centennial in California,
directed by Mr. Love, opened the show.
Kempton Webb was the station master,
and John Murdock acted as the capable
master of ceremonies.
The competition was keen, and the
judges had difficulty choosing the winners.
From the vocalists the “Fireside Quartet”
was chosen, while Robert DeFilipo was
selected from the instrumentals for his
fine accordian playing. For her lovely
and graceful ballet, Dorothy Lundstedt
was winner from the dancers, and finally,
the talented Larry Spector won from*
among the novelty group for his impres¬
sion of A 1 Jol.son.

as co-chairmen of this extravaganza.
It’s eight o’clock, and we’ve just arrived at
the door of the Marshall gymnasium where the

“The Anniversary
Larry Stone and Gerry Santuro look over the gym
with Chris Recklitis, the vice-president, while making
plans for the big night.
Sweet music, dim lights, and a romantic atmosphere! What more could you
expect at a Senior Prom? Another successful dance has been added to the numer¬
ous events of the Class of 1949.
On Friday evening, January 28, 1949, the Anniversary Waltz was held in the
Marshall gymnasium. However, the large gym was hardly disccrnablc under the
lovely decorations of green and silver streamers, pink and white feathers, and
graceful ballerinas. The ballerinas depicted the many dances popular in Malden
during the 300 years of the city’s history.
Geraldine Santoro and Lawrence Stone, co-chairmen, planned a wonderful
and memorable evening for us. The following people headed the committees;
Ruth W’olff, Barbara Roddy, Louis DiMaggio, decorations; Marguerite Fitzgerald,
Frank Fitzgerald, publicity; Arlene Carey, posters and showca.ses; Norma Brodsky,
Lewis Harris, program; Nancy Saulnier, Allen Singer, music; Susan Baker, Joseph
The high point of the evening took place when the dancers formed the Grand March,
and the King and Queen were chosen.
The royalty, Kay Kelly and Curtis Carr, smile
happily after being chosen Queen and King of the
Prom.
Connors, Richard Onley, tickets; Donald Favorat, Eleanor Karadimos, refresh¬
ments; Bernice Patkin, Norman Choate, hospitality.
While dancing to the smooth music of Ted Brown’s Orchestra, everyone looked
forward to the high point of the evening, which, of course, was the choosing of
the royalty. After an exciting Grand March which was led by our class president,
Mike Gasparello, the lucky pair were selected. Kay Kelly, a junior was picked as
queen and Curtis Carr, escort of our assistant class secretary, as king. Kay and
Curtis reigned supreme from their throne, both pleased with their new honor.
We wholeheartedly thank our advisers for the great success of this prom, for
without their help none of our affairs would have been successful. Every com¬
mittee did a fine piece of work, and all things added together, made one of the
finest Proms ever had in Malden High School.
The transformation of the Gym was taken care of by

Variety—a fashion show, a continental play,
a moving drama, and an exhilarating comedy
combined to make the most delightful of the re¬

dious preparations, on February iith, the casts of
Lit and Usona, Cam and Cog, Greenroom, and
the Political Science Club strained every dramatic

ASSEM
At the request of Dr. Mary Spencer, president of the Malden Tuberculosis
and Health Association, the state of Massachusetts conducted a mass X-ray survey
of all the citizens in Malden. From September 27 to 30th, the mobile unit came
to the rear of the high school where their technicians took chest X-rays of every
student and those faculty members desiring to be X-rayed.
In the Jenkins Auditorium on April 14, 1948, Joel Berman spoke on the
origin of Pan-American Day as Barbara Rosenthal waited to introduce Elaine Smith,
reader of the Proclamation.
The new Dial System introduced to all of Malden in 1948 by Mr. Herbert F.
Ellison, representative from New England Telephone and Telegraph Company,
requiring the individual to dial his own connection calls for strict attention to “dial-
tone” and “buzz-buzz.”
BLIES
A double thrill on December 3, 1948! The school boy trophy annually
awarded by Mr. Barney Kahn from the Malden Jewelry Company, to the selected
football player went to “Jim” Buonopane. Also, on the same program, to the
surprise of Coaches McGuirk, Melanson, and Wettergreen, they were presented
with a trophy of appreciation in behalf of the team.
“Wha-hoppened?” Nothing will, if the rules for fire prevention are carried
out after the demonstration to the student body by Mrs. Ernest W. Williams from
United Mutual Fire Insurance Company on December 8, 1948.
A typical football rally was staged by Mr. Chuck Crosby, sports commentator
from station WCOP, on January 21, 1949. The student body participated in
cheering, the coaches gave sports comments, and in conclusion the school sang
the “Blue and Gold.” The result of this was a transcribed program on the follow¬
ing evening over WCOP.

Head Adviser
Mr. Bruce Gilchrist
We of the class of ’49 realize that without the patience and practical aid of
our head adviser, Mr. Bruce Gilchrist, our class affairs would never have been
the huge success that they were. His capable leadership and sparkling personality
have won him a place in the heart of each student in Malden High School. No
matter how varied or difficult his tasks have been, he has always managed to
come out on top with a smile.
We of the graduating class wish that there were some way in which we could
show our deep appreciation for everything you have done to make our three
years in Malden High the highlights of our life. “Thanks”, Mr. Gilchrist, we
shall never forget it.

In keeping with the reputation of the

sports have been recorded in pictures and write
ups. Since this is the first time such an edition
has been produced, we hope that you will
bear with us in its simplicity. Thank you.

Tennis Team
Well, it ha.s been a long time, but it took
Coach John Queally to revive the fast swing¬
ing game of tennis at Malden High. He
called his practice sessions at Amerige Park,
and the home games were also played there.
Coach Qucally experimented with his (at
first green, but later enthusiastic) material;
but, for the most part utilized Captain
Richard Slcttcrink, number one man on the
Malden tennis ladder, for first singles duty.
Further bolstering the singles’ matches were
top net performers John Murdock and Dave
Starr. Although there were no top doubles
tandems, fast progressing John Grosset and
George Kolovson were equally paired to play
in every game. Don Atkin.son, Richard Sim¬
mons, and Ma.son Rosenthal showed promis¬
ing signs of becoming starring performers
for the future.
Slcttcrink won all his matches in the
Suburban Tennis League competition. The
team ended with a 4-4 slate for the season
in tough competition. The Queally racque-
tcers displayed fine form beating Lexington,
Winthrop, and Cambridge Latin by the
same score of 4-1. The thriller of the cam¬
paign was Malden’s brilliant victory over
Arlington, which saw the hard-fighting Mal-
denites on top 3-2. Coach Queally expects
bigger accomplishments, and a larger turn¬
out for next season.
