Page 18 THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, January 15, 2021 MALDEN: TODAY | FROM PAGE 4 Mr. A’s Lounge in Revere is hiring Cocktail Waitresses. Mr. John “Commander” Carroll is the Rifl e Team coach and the Meteorology teacher at the High School. As facetious and gracious a man that has ever lived Mr. Carroll had the patience of a monk but could be a strict disciplinarian. His classroom rules were fi rm; no drugs or weapons were allowed, so he made sure everybody who was carrying empty out their pockets before the period began. You put your contraband in a desk drawer and collected your stuff after class. He was also considerate of other people’s feelings, never speaking too loudly as to wake up anybody who may have dozed off during his class. In July, Royal Ballet stars Rudolf Nureyev and Margot Fonteyn are arrested on narcotics charges in San Francisco – the headline screamed “Busted at Hippy Pad!” Alfonso’s (later to be reinvented as The Squire) in Revere is also hiring “Cocktail Waitresses.” “Grilles” and “Cafes” were plentiful in Malden in 1967. You could quench your thirst and sate your appetite at any of the following: The Belmont Grille, the Malden Grille, The Highland Cafe, the Brunswick Cafe, Jack’s Cafe, the Maple Bar, Jack Haneys, the Showboat, Spadey’s Restaurant, the Strandway Cafe, the West End Grille, Fred’s Diner, The Embassy Restaurant, the Linwood Cafe, Maher’s Cafe, DeMarco’s Cafe, The Rosebud, Max’s Delicatessen, the R&R Lounge, the Robin Hood Motor Lodge, the Salem Grill, the Town Line Oyster House, the Horseshoe Bar & Grille, Mike’s Cafe, Morrison’s Cafe, Brandano’s, Tricca’s, and many many more. On May 21, the Jimmy Fund Little League Parade will begin at the Linden School at one o’clock and will include Congressman Torby MacDonald, Senator Fred Lamson, Mayor Walter Kelliher, and LL President Charlie Maccaris. “Slim-It” (imagine for a moment what exactly was in this!) is available at the Elmwood Pharmacy at 342 Pleasant Street. Johnny Marsinelli of 30 Oakland St. is inducted by Local Boards 20 and 101 into the service as part of the May Quota. The late great MacDaniel ‘Mac’ Singleton will assume the duties of phys ed instructor at the Beebe Junior High School. Mac played football with the Lowell Giants of the Atlantic Coast League in 1966 and was captain of the defense. He also had a tryout with the BosSaugus - PRICE CHANGE! $899,000 ton Patriots in 1966 but was cut. I had Mac as my gym teacher in the 7th & 8th grades and used his foul throw shooting technique he taught us my whole life. M.H.S. junior catcher Billy Croken is quickly earning a reputation as a potential pro baseball prospect. In the fi rst eight games he has thrown out 16 runners. The 5' 9" 170 lb. high schooler also pitches and in his fi rst start of the season threw a 3-hitter against Chelsea. He will eventually be drafted by the Red Sox. Danny Boland struck out 18 batters and allowed four hits as the Pirates beat the Bees in Northern Little League action. In Babe Ruth League action Richie ‘Ace’ Howard fi red a two-hitter as the Stars beat the Colts 2-1. At Nelson’s Bakery you can pick up a mince pie for 65 cents, Danish Kispies six for 50 cents, and apple gems banana nut bread three for $1.10. “This is the end, beautiful friend, this is the end, my only friend, the end” – Malden in 1967 was a wonderful and memorable moment in time. Urban Renewal was bulldozing us into the 21st century and the Orange Line had not yet opened us up to the rest of the world. Each neighborhood had its own distinct fl avor and unmistakable characters. We had a thriving downtown, no concrete barrier in the middle of Pleasant Street, our own movie theatres, and the Highland Cafe had the best pizza this side of the North End. For a year full of SPORTS | FROM PAGE 14 5:06 to go, the Eagles soared to 9-2, as great a come-from-behind victory as the school has ever experienced. Flutie Magic pulled it out for BC in the end Flutie fi nished 14-of-29 for 198 yards, over half of that total yardage in the fourth quarter. Defensive end Dave Thomas recovered two deadly (for Alabama) Tide fumbles in the fourth quarter to set up both BC TDs. Alabama never gave in, and with under three minutes left got the ball back twice, but BC’s defense hung on with stops at the Eagles’ 28-yard line, and fi - nally, on the last play of the game, at its own 11-yard line. Of course, the Malden guys stayed all the way to the end. Wet and cold, but happy to see a part of history. Flutie would go on to be one of the most celebrated collegiate players in modern times, winning the Heisman Trophy as unrest and chaos at home, turmoil in the Middle East as well as across the world, with social mores being swept into the dusty past this was not such a bad year to be an All American Maldonian. the nation’s best player the next year, his senior season in 1984. He also led BC to back-to-back wins over Alabama, a 37-31 victory in Tuscaloosa, Ala., the next season. (Alabama never scheduled BC again!) Flutie – 5-10, 175 lbs. – was not projected as a professional QB, but went on to have a 20-year pro career in the USFL (1985), NFL (1986-89 and 1998-2005) and Canadian Football League (CFL, 1990-1997), including two stints with the Patriots (1987-89, 2005). Monaco did not end up wearing the Gold and Maroon of BC. After he fi nished a Hall of Fame career at Malden High, he became the Golden Tornadoes’ fi rst Division 1 scholarship quarterback since the 1940s, heading to South Kingston to play four years for the University of Rhode Island Rams. It was great to see history in the making...and we will all never forget the day we saw BC beat Alabama in our own backyard. Good times, indeed – a real memory-maker.
