Maldden alld a Vol. 29, No. 9 den -FREEMHS Sports: Costa seeks back-to-back wrestling titles – see page 10 AADD I n Malden and throughout the state, signs are pointing to a healthy turnout in next week’s presidential primaries. With a last-minute rush on registrations, steady turnout for early voting, requests for absentee ballots and the high interest in this year’s presidential race, City Clerk Greg Lucey expects a good day at the polls next Tuesday. “I think we’ll do better than last time,” said Lucey, referring to the 2016 primaries when 40 percent of the city’s 30,141 registered voters cast ballots giving Hillary Clinton a narrow win over Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump a decisive victory over his Republican rivals. “If you are not excited about this election, you’re just not into it,” said Lucey. Assistant Registrar of Voters Carol Ann Desiderio was at the Senior Center on Tuesday afternoon watching Malden take advantage of early voting for the fi rst time in the presidential primaries. Desiderio fi gured about 500 people came out for the fi rst two days of early voting, which ends Friday at noon. “People can still apply for an absentee ballot up until noon on Monday,” she said. “You can come to City Hall and vote at Our 81st Year EDUCATION Next Classes DRIVER 1 Week Day Class April 20 2 Week Night Class March 16 CALL - ENROLL or Register Online 617-387-9121 HENRYSAUTOSCHOOL.COM AUTO SCHOOL E EVERETT A “Successful Key To Driving” Since 1938 Gift Certificates Available CTE CAT AT www.advocatenews.net City is primed for Super Tuesday By Barbara Taormina the counter.” Like Lucey, Desiderio expects a good turnout on Tuesday. “We would expect to get at least as many voters as we did in 2016,” she said, adding that the number of new voters who joined the city rolls is up signifi cantly this year thanks to online registration. In primary elections, unenrolled voters and voters with a political designation can request a Democratic, Republican, Libertarian or Green Rainbow Party ballot. “Those voters will revert automatically to their unenrolled status after they vote,” said Desiderio. In addition to the presidential candidates, voters will be electing members to party ward committees. Residents in Ward 5, Precinct 2, will also be deciding whether Democrat Kate Lipper-Garabedian or Republican Brandon Reid should fi ll the 32nd Middlesex District seat left open when former State Representative Paul Brodeur was elected Mayor of Melrose. While those races represent important choices, most of the attention on the upcoming vote has been focused on the Democratic and Republican presidential primaries. In Malden, Bernie Sanders seems to have won the deep blue hearts and minds of voters under 40 and the city’s progressive doers and thinkers. Warren Lynch, who launched Our Revolution Malden, the political action organization that harnessed the energy of Sanders’s 2016 presidential campaign to continue supporting progressive causes and candidates, predicted Tuesday will be a big day for Sanders. “I think he’ll win the nomination and the presidency,” said Lynch, who said he gets plenty of positive comments when he’s out holding a Sanders campaign sign. He did, however, admit that Elizabeth Warren might emerge as an actual contender in her home state. “She has strong support and she might be a close second,” said Lynch. Carla Hogan said Sanders is the country’s best shot at regaining its footing. She worries about the Democratic Party’s old-school establishment wing and their attacks on Sanders but added that it tends to ramp up the commitment of his supSUPER TUESDAY | SEE PAGE 15 Published Every Friday 617-387-2200 By Barbara Taormina A fter several weeks of questions, legal opinions and advice from the state Ethics Commission, the City Council voted to approve Mayor Gary Christenson’s appointments of Brian Slater and Angie Liou to the city’s new Affordable Housing Trust Fund Board. The fund was established to preserve and create aff ordable housing with Malden’s community preservation funds, mitigation fees from developers, grants and donations. And there was never any doubt that Slater, a senior vice president of East Boston Savings Bank and treasurer for Housing Families Inc., and Liou, executive director of the Asian Community Development Corporation, which works to create and preserve affordable housing and promote home homeownership, had plenty of experience and expertise to bring to the board. But Slater is from Medford, Liou lives in Boston, and Malden’s ordinances on city employees and board and commission members requires Malden residency with a handful of exceptions. And there was also a concern that Slater and Liou could face confl icts of interest on Malden housing projects that might involve the East Boston Savings Bank and the Asian Community Development Corporation. However, as it turns out, the City Council seems to have unwittingly created a loophole that cleared the way for the appointments. When the Affordable Housing Trust Fund Ordinance was approved late last year, none of the councillors questioned the appointment guidelines – which state that a minimum of four of the seven trustees must be Malden residents – even though it conflicted with the ordinance requiring Malden residency for board and commission memberships. The residency requirements include exceptions for people employed before 1999, teachers, nonclerical employees of the Planning Board, the Board of Health’s physician, and people appointed by the Mayor and the City Council “who have been designated to serve by virtue of their employment with the city.” “We have an ordinance, but we do have some exceptions,” said Ward 1 Councillor Peg Crow, chair of the Personnel and Appointments Committee. Crowe explained that the appointments to the Aff ordable Housing Trust Fund board are a new exception to the residency rule. Crowe also said that the city’s legal department did see the possibility of confl icts of interest between Aff ordable Housing Trust Fund decisions and Slater’s role at his bank and Liou’s position at the Asian Community Development Corporation. But according to the state Ethics Commission, E Friday, February 28, 2020 Vets Director honors heroes of Iwo Jima FAMILY HONOR: Malden Veterans Services Director Kevin Jarvis displays the City of Malden fl ag on top of Mount Suribachi in Iwo Jima on March 21, 2015.

(Photo Courtesy of Kevin Jarvis) City Council approves exceptions to the residency rule it will be up to Slater and Liou to disclose any possible confl icts to the Commission and request rulings on whether they should recuse themselves from voting on specifi c items and projects. “If it’s something that helps the bank or the nonprofi t agency, it’s up to the appointee to get rulings from the Ethics Commission on a case-by-case basis,” explained Assistant City Solicitor John McNaught. Most councillors were reassured by the legal opinions and explanations. “We’ve done our due diligence,” said Ward 7 Councillor Neal Anderson. “I think we’ve covered our bases. We have an obligation to get Malden residents on boards and commissions, but I don’t think it has to be an absolute.” The only exception was Ward 4 Councillor Ryan O’Malley, who said he didn’t agree with the opinions provided to the City Council. O’Malley voted against approving the appointments. “I believe that the rules matter,” he said. “Before we act on this matter, we need to correct the ordinances.” But Councillor-at-Large Debbie DeMaria, who called Slater and Liou “proven leaders in their fi elds” said it is more important to move the Affordable Housing Trust Fund forward. “If we have to, we can clean up the ordinances, but the priority is to get these members in and working,” she said.

The Carpentry Career Technical Program at the school will be working at the site until May. It is one of many community service projects performed by this school, which serves students from 12 cities and towns, including Malden. “A sincere thanks to the school, its teachers and students for volunteering their time to bring new aff ordable housing to the city of Malden,” said Christenson. The project helps underscore the city’s ongoing efforts to meet the housing needs of all its residents. Habitat for Humanity purchased this former problem property from the MRA in order to provide affordable housing opportunities via a lottery to income-eligible persons.

THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, February 28, 2020 Page 3 City makes a SNAP decision By Barbara Taormina M alden is opening the door to car-sharing services that offer residents an option to rent vehicles for short trips in and around the city. The City Council voted this week to expand the ordinance that regulates livery vehicles and taxis to include Shared Neighborhood Autos for Passengers (SNAPs). Drivers can reserve cars through an app on their phones, pick them up at nearby parking spots on the street, drive to and from their destinations and return cars when they’ve done. Rental charges are typically based on the amount of time the vehicle is used and the distance travelled. “Shared vehicles are becoming an increasingly popular way for folks to avoid the expense and hassle of owning a car in a place like Malden,” said Councillor-at-Large Stephen Winslow, who developed the SNAP regulations. “They allow people to live without a car but to have access to one when they need it.” Winslow said SNAP services are a particularly good fit for Malden, where 40 percent of the population depends on trains and buses for transportation. And SNAPs have the potential to reduce the number of privately owned cars in Malden, which will ease both the competition for parking spaces and the heavy traffic that crawls across the city during peak morning and evening hours. SNAP services seem to operate according to different models. Some services own a fleet of vehicles that are available for rent similar to Lime’s bicycle and scooter rental business. Other services offer peer-to-peer transactions, much like Airbnb, which connects homeowners having spare rooms and travelers looking for affordable accommodations. The car-sharing services provide liability insurance and a spot on their app for owners to list their vehicles for rent in exchange for a 25 to 30 percent cut of the rental fee. Winslow began crafting the SNAP regulations after Bonzer, a Boston-based car-sharing service with a fleet of mini-electric vehicles, proposed a pilot program for Malden. Winslow wanted to bring electric cars to the city with a service that would install charging stations in different neighborhoods. But Parking Department Director Ron Hogan told Winslow and other members of the Ordinance Committee that there are about 20 pick-up-and-go vehicles already operating under the radar in Malden, and most, probably, are not electric. The regulations were expanded to include all vehicles with a $1,500 licensing fee for gasoline-powered cars and a $500 fee for electric cars coupled with an obligation to create a charging station. The regulations cap the number of available SNAP licenses to 30 vehicles, which must all be registered in Malden and subject to local excise taxes. Ordinance Committee members plan to work with ward councillors and the Traffic Commission to find accessible parking spots for SNAP vehicles, which Winslow said would be like taxi stands where renters can pick up and drop off vehicles. “I think this is a great idea,” said Ward 7 Councillor Neal Anderson, who suggested that SNAP services may encourage people not to buy private vehicles. “We don’t need everyone to have an automobile,” he said. Councillor-at-Large Debbie DeMaria appreciated the new revenue SNAP services would bring into the city through licensing fees and excise taxes. Ward 4 Councillor Ryan O’Malley, who helped hammer out the SNAP regulations, touted the environmental benefits of car sharing and the protections the city will gain with the new ordinance. “To sum it up, this ordinance helps regulate something that already exists on our street and is operating without rules,” he said. 781-321-7700 DISCOUNT FURNITURE COMPLETE LINE OF QUALITY FURNITURE AT LOW PRICES *BEDROOM SETS *DINING ROOM SETS *KITCHEN SETS ASHLEY SOFA *SOFA / LOVE SEATS *TABLES & CHAIRS *COMPUTER DESKS $399.00 ASHLEY BEDROOM SETS 895.95 $ LAYAWAY PLANS AVAILABLE 42 Willow St., Malden, Ma.

THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, February 28, 2020 Page 5 “Malden: Today, Tomorrow and Yesterday” …thoughts on a cold February morning By Peter F. Levine P icked up pieces while waiting for the much-anticipated arrival of spring in Malden... • I recently stated that Lt. John Crannell was the last of the Class of 1975 to retire from the MPD, following in the footsteps of Gary Hennessey, Frankie Spinale and George Grimes. While not a Malden High School grad, Police Chief Kevin Molis was a member of that infamous Malden Catholic High School Class of 1975. Sorry for the oversight, Chief! • I ran into Malden via Melrose basketball standout Billy Greely at West Memorial Elementary School in West Peabody last Saturday morning. “Greels” was there to catch his nephew’s little boy play hoop in the 9/10 P.B.A. Billy looked good! I was happy to see him! Wasn’t always that way. I hated to see him whenever he covered me during the old YMCA hoop glory days back in the 1980’s through the 1990’s. His tenaciousness on the hardwood was legendary. His jump/ set shot was just as deadly as his “D.” Billy led Melrose High to a state championship in the mid1960’s at the old Garden and played college ball with Dr. J at UMass back in the late 1960’s. Always loved Greels! • If you haven’t seen Gary Cherone lately in the Malden vicinity, he has a valid excuse. The “10th Anniversary Monsters of Rock Cruise” featuring Extreme, Telsa, Winger, Stryper, Krokus, Thunder, Vixen and a bunch of other hair metal bands set sail aboard the Independence of the Seas on Feb 8 out of Ft. Lauderdale, hitting Cozumel and Belize City for fi ve days of fun, sun and metal. • Rest in peace, Larry Levine from Larry Levine’s Meat & Deli in Peabody. The Jewish Journal from January 16 reports Larry passed away on December 21 at age 86 “after years of hard work and devotion to his family and community.” A Malden High School 1951 graduate, Larry was a talented saxophone player and was even awarded a scholarship to the New England Conservatory of Music. His father, fearing Larry would become a “bum” pursuing a career in music, persuaded him to study business at Northeastern instead. The rest is history. He opened Larry Levine’s Meat & Deli in Peabody – and went on to become famous serving the best kosher pastrami and brisket in the largest kosher meat market north of Boston and south of Montreal. “As the likeminded as long as you could tolerate the cigarette smoke. John Strauss owned Pleasant Street Smoke Shop and ran it with his son Steve, a 1976 MHS graduate. John was a good man! A U.S. Army veteran, member of the Malden VFW 639, and DAV, John passed away in June of 2014. Another piece of old Malden lost with his death. Long live the Pleasant Street Smoke Shop. By the way, people, stop blocking his driveway! Thank you. Time for the fi rst edition of “Malden: Today, Tomorrow and Yesterday Top 15 Desert Island Discs.” It goes like this: You’re stranded on a deserted island for an indefi nite amount of time.

(Courtesy Photo) long as we live, they too will live; for they are now are a part of us; as we remember them.” Jewish Prayer. I am not a relation to Larry. • Happy birthday wishes to longtime boogie-woogie piano icon (Malden’s very own) Preacher Jack! The craziest, most insane man in show biz shares a birthday with his idol Abe Lincoln. Jack is resting peacefully at the Tewksbury State Hospital – the very last stop on his “Everlasting Celebration of the Spirit Never Ending Tour.” • “Malden: Today, Tomorrow and Yesterday” celebrates the 50th anniversary of (Malden boy) Norman Greenbaum’s “Canned Ham” reaching #46 on the Billboard pop chart. Known as a “one-hit wonder” – contrary to popular belief – Norman placed several songs on the Billboard charts during his career, none, of course, more popular than “Spirit in the Sky.” • Most know Chief Molis by his public persona as that straight out of central casting Police Chief – “just the facts ma’am” type of guy. But believe me, this guy bleeds Malden and he sincerely loves special (Malden) moments like meeting Norman Greenbaum. Check out the smile. That ain’t fake. Thanks, chief, for keeping it real and for all the good you do for the city you love so much. • Well, I never got to Papa’s Bar & Grille for that last plate of chicken parm with a side of garlic bread before they closed their doors on us. So long, Bernie & Kell! Thank you for all that you and your family have done for Malden. And continue to do for Malden. I hope the Pleasant Street Smoke Shop has much success at their new home on Irving Street. Strange not to see a “smoke shop” at the old location on Main Street – a fi xture there all my life. From Moe’s Smoke Shop to the Converse Smoke Shop to the Pleasant Street Smoke Shop, they were the anchor of the Square for many of the Square’s recent dark days. I bought my Globe and Herald for many years there as well as many issues of Mad and Sport magazine. We all went in before and after school. A bit of Malden’s past tucked away in the middle of the Square – our equivalent of the General Store – all we needed was Floyd the Barber sitting out front.

Koutoujian announced on February 21. In total, those 483 people were wanted on more than 700 warrants – both bench and default – and faced over 1,000 felony charges and another 700plus misdemeanors. “The members of the Warrant Apprehension Unit work handin-hand with our local, state and federal partners to locate and apprehend those who have attempted to evade justice,” said Koutoujian. “Many of these individuals are suspected of serious crimes ranging from domestic violence and rape to home invasion, fi rearms and murder charges.” Currently, the MSO’s Warrant Apprehension Unit is comprised of three deputy sheriff s and a member of the Lowell Police Department. Working in conjunction with state and municipal police, Warrant Apprehension Unit members assisted in the arrests of multiple homicide suspects in 2019, including Joseph McGillicuddy, 22, who was wanted in connection with the 2018 death of Anthony Luna, 24, in Lowell. “The Lowell Police Department has seen the benefi ts of working collaboratively with many law enforcement partners over the years,” said Lowell Police Superintendent Kelly Richardson. “Having the ability to work with the Massachusetts State Police, the Middlesex Sheriff ’s Offi ce and the Middlesex District Attorney’s Office ensures that people that evade responsibility for their unlawful actions are brought to justice. As the numbers refl ect, this partnership has made great strides in making our streets a safer place for our community, and for that I am personally grateful.” Following an investigation by Marlborough Police investigators, Warrant Apprehension Unit deputies worked with members of the Massachusetts State Police’s Violent Fugitive Apprehension Section (VFAS) and the Marlborough and Westborough Police Departments to locate and apprehend Dennis Orellana, 34, of Westborough, and Hilin Orellana, 26, of Marlborough, on charges of rape of child.

THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, February 28, 2020 Page 7 Malden Vets Director honors father, three relatives and two Maldonians who fought at Iwo Jima Special to Th e Advocate M alden Veterans Services Director Kevin Jarvis, who serves on the Board of Directors for the Iwo Jima Association of America, is in Washington this week for a very special Iwo Jima Reunion of Honor taking place through Sunday. Jarvis said he is hoping to see 40-50 Iwo Jima veterans and their family members at the events this week. Jarvis published many articles about Iwo Jima in 2010 and 2015. His father, John F. Jarvis, served in Iwo Jima with the 2nd Separate Engineer Battalion, Fifth Amphibious Corps; and his fi rst cousin, George J. Jarvis, from North Kingstown, R.I., served in Iwo Jima with the 5th Engineer Battalion, 5th Marine Division. According to Jarvis, he recently discovered that he’s also related to two men who were killed at Iwo Jima in 1945. One of them is Austin C. Behan from Newport, R.I., who served as a U.S. Navy Commander and was the executive offi cer on the USS Pensacola and was killed offshore of Iwo Jima on February 17, 1945. The other one is Corporal Elmer R. Bartlett from Alexandria, Va., who served with the First Battalion, 25th Marine Regiment, 4th Marine Division and was killed in action in Iwo Jima on February 19, 1945. This year will be very special for the Malden’s Veterans Services director because he will Upon landing on Iwo Jima, Lt.

MC currently enrolls ninth and tenth grade girls and off ers 12 sports in the girls’ athletics program. “With interest and enrollment at MC at a high point and the fi rst class of 11th grade girls in 2020, this is a great time to add girls ice hockey, making it our 13th available sport for female students,” said MC Director of Athletics William Raycraft. “Malden Catholic has a long and very successful history of boys hockey and we take great pride in off ering the best possible athletic opportunities to our student-athletes. Next year, our plan is to off er varsity programs for all MIAA [Massachusetts Interscholastic Athletic Association] girls sports,” said Raycraft. MC currently competes in MIAA’s District H Independent Conference and will be seeking to complete its scheduling over the next several months. MC currently off ers 12 girls’ sports: cross-country, fall cheerleading, soccer, volleyball, basketball, indoor track & fi eld, winter cheerleading, swimming, lacrosse, softball, tennis and outdoor track & fi eld. According to the National Federation of High School Sports, participation in girls ice hockey continues to grow, and MC will add to the 642 other schools nationwide participating, which includes more than 9,600 students. “This is a very exciting time at Malden Catholic,” said MC Headmaster John Thornburg. “With hockey so deeply embedded in the Lancer legacy, we are thrilled to continue with our ~ Malden Neighborhood Basketball League ~ 35TH SEASON, WEEK 8 Saturday, Feb. 22 at Ferryway Game 1 – Celtics 68, Hawks 47 The Emerald kept their hold onto the top spot as they took out the surging Hawks, thanks to two players scoring all 14 points in the 4th : Chris Peguero ended with 23 and Sean Kelley had 19. On the other side, the Red n Yellow had a big 3rd quarter & got it down to just 3 points by outscoring the Celts 21-12. But they turned around & only scored 3 total points in the 4th as the Celts scored 14. The Hawks were led by Yousef Kerany with 22 & June Ling with 12. Game 2 – Sonics 66, Pistons 62 The Pistons played their best all-around game of the year as they almost shocked the Sonics. Locked up at 28 at the half, it was Jose Davila that helped, going 9-11 at the line and ending with a game high 33 as Jameel Dorcena had 15 in this close victory. As usual Amanuel Beshah led with a solid 31, & teammate Jayson Dos Reis had 21. Game 3 – Lakers 61, Sixers 51 The purple n gold almost forfeited again against these same Sixers, but luckily a 4th player arrived. The Sixers had only 5 themselves, but that didn’t matter to the Lakers as they pulled out the 10-point victory as Jordan Bridgeman-Dicks had 13 of his 26 in the 4th & Wesley Johnson (25) had a nice game also. It was Anthony Baires (30) with the game-high for the Sixers, and Shai Cohen chipped in with 11 of his own. Sunday, Feb. 23 at Ferryway Game 1 – Bullets 56, Sixers 44 The Day 1’s duo of Christian RIGHT BY YOU Molain (24) and Cameron Kilpatrick (14) led the way as the Bullets got back to .500 and remain in the 4th spot in the RIGHT BY YOU BUSINESS SPOTLIGHT standings.

The one bright spot was Joao Medeiros having his season-high of 19. Cam Scott, also with 19, & Dominic Bono with 12 ended the double-digit scoring. Game 3 – Lakers 34, Pistons 32 The lake-show did it again, sweeping the weekend for the 1st time this year. The Pistons had 5 of their 6 players score but not one had over 9 points in the game. But for the Lakers it was Big Wesley Johnson with 18 and Jordan Bridgeman-Dicks with 16 to keep this close victory in hand and get the Lakers’ coaches some smiles along the way, during this tough season. 2020 Malden Neighborhood Basketball League W L Games behind Celtics – c* Sonics – c* Hawks – c* Bullets Lakers Sixers Kings Pistons *c – playoff bound NEXT WEEK’S GAMES Sat., Feb. 29 Hawks VISIT US TO TALK ABOUT HOW WE CAN DO RIGHT BY YOUR BUSINES S 419 BROADWAY, EVERETT MA 02149 | 61 7 . 38 7 . 1 1 10 7 7 1 SALEM ST, LYNNFIELD, MA 01940 | 78 1 . 7 7 6 . 4444 Member FDIC Member SIF EVERETTBANK .

THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, February 28, 2020 Page 9 Tsang’s 31, Dajci’s dramatic three propel MVRCS eagles S enior Joey Dajci ’s three-pointer in the waning moments propelled Mystic Valley Regional Charter School (MVRCS) to a 76-74 victory over Lowell Catholic in Lowell in opening round play of the 2020 Massachusetts Interscholastic Athletic Association [MIAA] Division 4 North Tournament. The win was chock full of storylines – MVRCS senior Alfie Tsang led the way with 31 points, including the 1,000th of his career, becoming the eighth in school history to do so. The Eagles (13-8) were in control of the contest most of the way – despite Tsang being saddled to coach Tony Ferullo’s bench for a majority of the third and fourth quarters with foul trouble – never trailing by more than three points. Behind by one with five seconds remaining, Dajci, who had only scored three points all game, kept his team’s season alive by burying a left corner trifecta on an assist from eight- grader Eli Prophete. The Crusader defense wisely double-teamed Tsang but didn’t account for the streak-shooting Dajci, who has a penchant for burying outside shots. Following a desperation half court heave, the Eagles retreated to their locker room, a jubilant scene, no doubt, as they survived and advanced to a Thursday (Feb. 27) showdown with top-seeded Austin Prep. In addition to Dajci’s heroics and Tsang’s ascendance into MVRCS Superintendent Alex Dan and basketball head coach Tony Ferullo flank Alfie Tsang as the senior was honored for eclipsing the 1,000-point plateau recently. (Photo Courtesy of Mystic Valley Regional Charter School) MVRCS lore, senior co-captain Kenny Jean-Pierre scored 15 points, and freshman Mike Tayag asserted himself as a clear outside threat, netting 14. A winner of more than 250 career games and 200-plus patrolling the Maroon and Gold sidelines, Ferullo was noticeably excited in the moment, savoring the occasion with his squad in the ensuing celebration. A true student of the game, the veteran coach was effusive in his praise for MVRCS’s successful efforts to secure a win on hostile ground. “This has to go down as one of the top victories in the history of the boys’ basketball program,” said Ferullo. “I cannot be more proud of my team and the hard-nosed way they played from start to finish…They are true champions in my book.” Girls protect home court in opening round victory The eighth-seeded MVRCS girls basketball team protected their home court with a 6344 victory over number nine KIPP Academy to advance to Friday’s quarterfinal round against top-seeded Matignon. Holding a 31-18 halftime advantage, the Eagles (12-9) withstood a small Panther run to lead by just 10, 41-31, after three quarters. Clearly inspired by coach Jonathan Currier’s between-quarters talk, MVRCS came out on fire, leaving no doubt that they’d survive and advance in the Division 4 North MVRCS swim teams excel in state meet I n February the boys and girls swim teams of Mystic Valley Regional Charter School (MVRCS) took to the waters at Boston University’s Agganis Arena to finish their season in the Massachusetts Interscholastic Athletic Association (MIAA) Division II state meets with swimmers from all over the Commonwealth taking their best shot at earning a medal. Girls The Eagle girls finished 15th with 47 points. Individually, sophomore Deanna Guo cracked the top eight twice, finishing seventh in the 100 fly (1:00.61) and eighth in the 100 back in 1:00.76. Junior Tracy Lam was MVRCS’s other solo competitor, placing 17th in the 200 individual medley (2:18.29) and 23rd in the 100 breast (1:13.95). MVRCS placed 11th in both the 200 individual medley relay (Guo, Lam, senior Olivia Mei and junior Shannon Brady) and the 400 free relay (Brady, Guo, Lam, Mei). The grouping of Mei, Brady, junior Angelina Casucci and sophomore Rupa Raj placed 23rd in the 200 free relay. The future looks bright for the Eagle girls as just one senior, Mei, departs from the state team. Boys Sunday was time for the MVRCS boys’ program to excel, and that’s exactly what transpired as the Eagles road a trio of top-eight relay finishes and strong individual swims on their way to an eighth-place finish with 112 points. Junior Joe Cirame turned in MVRCS’s best individual finish, touching the wall fifth in the 100 breast (1:00.41) to go along with his 16th place showing in the 200 individual medley. Freshman Jeremy Cheng also had a medal hung around his neck after a seventh-place effort in the 100 free (49.79) to accompany his 12th and freshman Armando Inplace finish in the 200 individual medley. In the 100 free, sophomore Andy DiFiore took 18th dreasano finished 23rd. Making his very first state finals individual appearance, senior Sam Lyon swam the 200 individual medley in 2:10.64. Junior Bryant Nguyen also competed in a pair of races: the 50 free and 100 breast. In the 50 free, Indreasano took 24th in 23.31. Freshman distance star Aiden Acuna-Rosa collected a pair of top-15 finishes, taking 13th in the 200 free and 15th in the 500 free. As mentioned, the relays saw the Eagles march to the podium three times with sixth-place finishes in the 200 medley (DiFiore, Cirame, Cheng, Indreasano) SWIM | SEE PAGE 11 Bracket. Sophomore post player Mairead St. Clair led all scorers with a career-best 19 points while snaring 17 rebounds. Junior captains Kate Story (13 points) and Daniela D’Alleva (12 points) continued to fill up the scorebook, and Currier’s team received a much-needed 8 points from sophomore forward Lily Palomino. “I was proud of our effort and how we competed,” said Currier, who saw his team advance to the semifinals a year ago. “Mairead had a great game and really asserted herself in the paint. Kate and Daniela controlled the tempo and keyed our defensive effort. Even when they [KIPP] made a little run at us, I never sensed any panic with our team; we stayed focused and finished the job.” Tsang joins exclusive club With his 31-point effort in MVRCS’s 76-74 opening round victory over Lowell Catholic, senior Alfie Tsang became the eighth player in school history to equal or eclipse the 1,000 point plateau on the hardwood. Needing 30 points to achieve the milestone, Tsang seemed well on his way to having his name stitched on the banner that proudly hangs at the Eastern Avenue Sports Complex – until foul trouble relegated him to a seat on the bench for most of the third and fourth quarters. Career points 1,000 and 1,001 couldn’t have come at a more critical time – the senior from Saugus slashed his way past Crusaders defenders in the closing moments to give his team the lead. “Alfie is one of the hardest working and diligent young men I’ve ever been associated with,” Ferullo said. “He is the epitome of a student-athlete in every sense of the word, and it’s been an absolute pleasure for me to coach him these past four years. He has laid a foundation and example for our younger players to live up to not only for how he conducts himself on the court but for his steadfast commitment to excelling away from basketball.” Still undecided on his college destination, Tsang is a Presidential scholar candidate, a candidate for the IB Diploma, and a member of STEM Club, National History Day and Key Club, of which he is the Lieutenant Governor for the New England & Bermuda District Key Club. He is also one of eight members of the Class of 2020 who eclipsed the 1,500 mark on the SAT.

Page 18 THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, February 28, 2020 MALDEN: TODAY | FROM PAGE 5 we are concentrating on your faves from the 1970’s. No greatest hits, no box sets. My list in no particular order: • Various Artists “The Harder They Come” • The Modern Lovers “The Modern Lovers” • Bob Marley “Catch A Fire” • The Clash “The Clash” • Miles Davis “Bitches Brew” • George Harrison “All Things Must Pass” • David Bowie “The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars” • Led Zeppelin “Houses of the Holy” • Various Artists “Saturday Night Fever” • Leonard Cohen “Songs of Love and Hate” • John Lennon “Plastic Ono Band” (1970) • Ramones “Rocket to Russia” • Buzzcocks “Singles Going Steady” • Elvis Costello & the Attractions “This Year’s Model” • Sex Pistols “Never Mind the Bollocks, Here’s the Sex Pistols” Presidential politics are in the air! Here are a couple of little-known Malden brushes with presidential fame: Next time you stop in to say hello to fancy talker Paul Solano and have a cold Sam Adams or a plate of those yummy steak tips at Pearl Street Station Restaurant, remember that 68 years ago this October President Harry Truman and his daughter Margaret stopped at the B&M Station on Summer Street and were “mobbed by adoring crowds.” You’re an old time Maldonian if you remember that crazy summer day in 1956 when vice president (and future disgraced 37th president) Richard Milhous Nixon visited our very own Malden Square. A bandstand was set up across the street from the Granada Theatre opposite The Palace of Sweets on Pleasant Street. Nixon was enthusiastically welcomed by a throng of Maldonians, many of them there to cheer on local pols sitting with him. Seated on the dais with “Tricky Dick” that longago afternoon were U.S. Senator Leverett Saltonstall (future Governor), Secretary of State Christian Herter, Atty. Edward Bushell, Atty. Michael DeMarco (Republican City Committee Chairman) and Melrose Mayor Lawrence Lloyd. “This is the end, beautiful friend, this is the end, my only friend, the end...” I walked the Square just last week and although I miss the Granada and Strand Theatres, W.T. Grant’s, Kresge’s, the West End Bar & Grille, Woolworth’s, Sizzleborg, the Y, the Horseshoe Bar & Grille, the Kernwood, the 99, Walt’s Gun Shop, Jack Haney’s, Roli Music, Charles Gifts, the Daylight Bowling Alley, the Auld New, Tom McCann’s, the Centre Bar & Grille, Louie Klane’s, Brigham’s, Lichey’s Deli, Signor Pizza, No Where’s End, Jack’s Music, Jordan Marsh and Sparks. I am so much loving the new look and fabulous vibe the Square REAL ESTATE TRANSACTIONS BUYER1 Furlong, James P REVERE BUYER2 SELLER1 Lang, David P SELLER2 now gives off . You can feel the energy and excitement that the many younger residents have brought to the downtown as well as the infrastructure upgrade. Stepping up to the batter’s box – the opening of City Hall and Pleasant Street. Thank you, Mayor Christenson! Let the revitalization continue! Postscript: “What you are about to read is a matter of human record. Explain it: we cannot. Disprove it: we cannot. We simply invite you to explore with us the amazing world of the Unknown ... to take that One Step ... Beyond.” Who, with a straight face that is, can now say that taking down the “Beast That Ate Pleasant Street” was not a good idea?! Believe it or not, there were actually people who wanted that Square killer to remain in place. Go fi gure! Thank goodness we have elected officials who understood the gravity of the situation. Aristotle said, “Knowing yourself is the beginning of all wisdom.” Word up!
