(Courtesy Photo) By Steve Freker M ore than 25,000 runners from all over the world — representing 120 countries and all 50 states — descended onto the hallowed Boston Marathon race course Monday to participate in the triumphant return of the famed event to its traditional Patriot’s Day spot on the calendar. Included among them were over 40 local residents, most of them finishing the 26.2-mile race in fine fashion under sunny skies and cool temperatures. It was the first time the full Boston Marathon was run on Patriot’s Day since 2019, due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The 2020 race was cancelled shortly after the pandemic was declared worldwide in midMarch of that year. The 2021 Boston Marathon last April also axed due to the pandemic, though a smaller, 125th Boston Marathon was run on Columbus Day in October 2021. On Patriot’s Day Monday there was no question when the 126th Boston Marathon began that the iconic race was back in business, in all of its glory. Under sunny skies and cool temperatures in the mid-toupper 40s, slightly more than 30,000 official runners set off in timed waves from the start in Hopkinton to the finish in downtown Boston.

THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, April 22, 2022 Page 5 Malden man, 81, assaulted in Boston's Downtown Crossing as part of juvenile-based crime wave Surge of teen-based violence and vandalism causing stepped-up police presence in that section of city By Steve Freker at least $2,000 in damage. According to reports, the A n elderly Malden man who was enjoying a late-night meal in Boston's Downtown Crossing shopping hub was assaulted and lost his food when a small group of juveniles attacked him recently. The attack was reported as part of an online report detailing a recent surge of teen-based violence and vandalism in one of Boston's busiest and most visible shopping and dining hubs. In this incident, taking place earlier this month, a Malden man, 81, whose identity was withheld, was munching on a hamburger in a Downtown Crossing fast food establishment when he was approached by a group of four juveniles, identified as between 12-14 years old. The three girls and a boy entered McDonald's at 329 Washington St., said nothing, but ripped the hamburger out of his hand, slapped the man on the head and then sprayed whipped cream from a dispenser into his face and on his chest, according to reports. Police responded to the scene, according to reports, but though shaken up, the Malden 81-year-old did not require medical attention. According to the online reDowntown Crossing area has seen multiple incidents of assaults both physical and verbal, particularly by young teens ages from 12-14, particularly by female suspects. In one other recent incident, Boston Police are investigating an assault which took place in a Downtown Crossing where an 81-year-old Malden man was attacked, slapped and doused with whipped cream by a group of four unidentifi ed juveniles, three girls and a boy.

The owner asked them to leave when they apparently started shouting a protest slogan and demanding the staff also say it, according to the police report. After they were escorted out, all the while allegedly screaming a variety of “racial slurs” and spitting at employees and the 15 or so patrons, they allegedly threw a soda bottle at the glass door, along with other things, breaking the glass door, which caused four young girls ages 12 and 13 had to be placed into custody after they allegedly kicked, punched and spit at police who were coming to the aid of a 22-year-old woman a group of 10-12 juvenile girls had attacked and beaten. Two of the girl suspects also kicked at and damaged a cruiser while in custody inside. The incident was reported as a hate crime and the Civil Rights Unit of the police was alerted. Two days later, police say the same group that attacked the Malden man were seen again at the Black Seed Cafe, 131 Tremont St. There, two took turns punching a female victim because she allegedly refused to buy them ice cream and alPlease Join Us for a Fundraiser State Representative Steven Ultrino Member of Ways and Means, Health Care Financing, and Monday May 9, 2022 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm Mixx 360 665 Broadway Malden legedly used a racial slur in response to their request.

Page 6 THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, April 22, 2022 Malden Today, Tomorrow and Yesterday – Chris Simonelli fundraiser By Peter F. Levine The kid is popular. Chris drew I t is said in Malden today, tomorrow and yesterday... Speaking of Chris Simonelli’s April 8 well-attended fundraiser...I saw an amazing cross section of Malden enjoying Albert’s sensational raviolis and listening to some inspiring speakers. Neal Anderson crushed it! Nearly stole the show. Put a mic in this guy’s hands and watch out! Sparks fly! Great job, Neal. Joey Simonelli, Chris’ son, may have more charisma than his pops – a standup guy whose altruism credentials go toe to toe with his Councillor father. Keep up the great work, Joey, and thank you. Cathy Leblanc from Ward 5 was in the house. I do not mean to imply this young lady is only about Ward 5. Cathy is Malden. All Malden. Cathy has never held public office, but she cares. A great deal. Cathy is active. Cathy is passionate. Cathy always fights the good fight. Thank you for that, Cathy. an atypical, diverse crowd for a fundraiser in April with no election within sight. Who does that?! Who packs a hall with people of all kinds of different ethnic backgrounds? All kinds of disparate political positions? All kinds of different socioeconomic backgrounds? Chris does! Chris took center stage and was his usual off the cuff, affable self. First time I heard him talk of the demons that he possessed years ago – how with the help of friends and family (funny son Joey story of tough love), he was able dropkick all that foolishness into the distant past. It’s a great, courageous story. One that should be celebrated. One that I know he is proud of. We are all proud of his story. There are second acts in life for sure. Chris is proof. Former MHS Principal Brown is an enthusiastic CS supporter. We miss you, Dana. Please come back. Malden High School needs you, badly. Chris talked and talked and Law Offices of Terrence W.

His actions speak louder than his words, though. His plans to beautify the Ward 7 neighborhood are long overdue. He was the impetus for the skate park years ago. He’s got plans to upgrade the park and make it a showcase on the North Shore – a Resource/Multi-Cultural Center is being planned as we read together. Youth programming and events, road and sidewalk upgrades, upgrades to Lincoln and Kierstead Park! Forgetaboutit! Gonna be a busy summer for Mr. Simonelli. Oh yeah, the city plans to name the skate park after Chris. Well deserved. Ward 5 Councillor (for life, hopefully) Barbara Murphy looked on with pride as her surrogate son Chris thanked her for her unwavering support through the good, the bad and the ugly. Oh yeah, he also plans on taking on the mess they made of Willow Street. Forgetaboutit! Albert Spadafora will soon be inducted into the Malden High School Alumni Hall of Fame – a great day in Malden history. He is being celebrated throughout Malden and his home away from home, Edgeworth. His son, Craig the Councillor, isn’t used to sharing the spotlight. I know my old friend can use some spotlight right about now, although when I saw him at Chris Simonelli’s SRO fundraiser at Anthony’s on Canal Street he looked as happy as a clam – Craig and pops Albert playing host at the old barn to the many friends and family members that filled the upstairs banquet room for Chris. Once again, I had 20 hard-hitting questions for Councillor-at-Large/Council President Spadafora. Never one to back down from a challenge, Crag kindly replied: Malden today, tomorrow and Chris Simonelli with former MHS Principal Dana Brown at the April 8 fundraiser (Courtesy Photo) 1.

I played sports as a youngster at *Amerige* Park. John Preziosa, they called him the pride of Newall Street (or does he call himself that? I forget). Longtime readers of this column will remember John as a member of the groundbreaking interracial hip-hop group based out of Malden, Top Choice Clique. After TCC, Coach Prez had stints as head men’s hoop coach at Wheelock College, Bunker Hill Community College and Bishop Fenwick with an occasional TCC reunion thrown in. He was also an assistant coach at Salem State University and Melrose High. He is now at Quinsigamond CC. I had six questions for my old friend, Prez... growing up Malden was the theme: yesterday (MTTY): Your favorite restaurant/sub shop/pizza place growing up on Newhall Street? Jawn P: Not an easy question. (I had so many of them!) My goto place for pizza growing up was Sal’s (then Verdone’s). I remember we would get a large cheese every Friday night for years. The big draw was cutting the coupons off the box (10 gets a free pizza!). I continued to go there whenever I visited Malden. Both of our boys (Marino and Gino) have grown up on Pisa Pizza though. MTTY: Favorite Malden Fourth of July memory (where and when)? JP: Green Street Park (Ward 1). Mr. Hennessy was councillor, and my dad would help. One year (nine or 10 years old) we came up with the idea of using gum to stick the peanuts to the spoon in the spoon race. My old man caught on and disqualified us all from the rest of the day’s events. I couldn’t defend my Free Throw championship! MTTY: Favorite spot in Malden Square as a youngster? JP: I loved going to A&B Music to browse through their 45s. I remember taking my aunts favorite Cars/J. Geils records and trading them in for Blondie’s “Rapture” record down at Headlines. MTTY: Must-see TV growing up? JP: Donnie and Marie, The Incredible Hulk, Batman, Happy Days, This Week in Baseball, WWWF Championship wrestling (Bruno Sammartino was a god in our household). MTTY: Favorite sports coach as a youngster? JP: Paul Russell was my little league coach as a 12-year-old. Coach Russell was the coolest cat in Malden. He would pick me up for practice in a white convertible Cadillac. Kenny Mazonson’s MNBL was big for me as well. Kenny Petraglia gave me my first start coaching at Centre Methodist. MTTY: Growing up in Malden, first musical concert you attended? JP: A Drum and Bugle competition at Macdonald Stadium was my very first concert, I guess. But my favorite earliest memory of watching a group was Mr. Bob Crowley and Richie Willis in North Shore Acappella at Cricket’s in Faneuil Hall. “This is the end, beautiful friend, this is the end, my only friend, the end” – one last word from Prez: “I just completed my first season as Men’s Head Basketball coach at Quinsigamond CC!

But it was the experienced Malden High squad which prevailed in a 3-1 final that included a 29-27 marathon in the second set. Revere boys came in perfect at 7-0 and Malden was not far behind at 4-1.With the victory, and another win over Billerica Thursday head coach Dan Jurkowski's Tornado squad improved to 6-0 overall, 3-0 in Greater Boston League play. Malden was led by senior captains Yoji Yonetani and Jason Ong as well as Eric Mei, CJ Jeremi and Kyle Lee. *** MALDEN: TODAY | FROM PAGE 6 ed to see what the future brings for the program as we have a ton of room to grow. I’ve been coaching for 23 years straight at both the collegiate/high school level. Growing up in Malden the first seeds of coaching were planted by guys like Dana Brown who was the head coach at Mass Bay CC, and John Furlong who played at Salem State U. Being around guys like that showed me that if you work hard enough you can reach any level you wanted. Malden is always a source of inspiration to me on my journey. Guys like Gary Cherone, Gip Nally, Kevin McGlinchy, and Carmine Cappuccio showed Malden High boys volleyball took two wins this week. (Advocate Photos) Revere High Baseball has a great week with pair of wins over GBL rivals The Revere High baseball squad had a big week with a pair of wins over GBL rivals, 3-2 over Malden on Monday and 10-2 over Everett on Wednesday. The young Patriots squad, which features only one senior, unloaded with the bats on Wednesday after using a terrific pitching performance by Domme ‘It’s not where you’re from, it’s where you’re at.’ A mentality that has kept me grounded in hope during my own dreams. As far as comparing growing up in Malden to Melrose there is no comparison.

So, if you want to start receiving your Social Security benefi ts in July, your July benefi ts will be distributed in August. The day of the month you receive your benefi t payment, however, will depend on your birthdate. Here’s the schedule of when you can expect to receive your monthly check. If you were born on the: • 1st through the 10th: Expect your check to be deposited on the second Wednesday of each month. • 11th through the 20th: Expect your check to be deposited on the third Wednesday of each month. • 21st through the 31st: Expect your check to be deposited on the fourth Wednesday of each month. There are, however, a few exceptions to this schedule. For example, if the day your Social Security check is supposed to be deposited happens to be a holiday, your check will be deposited the previous day. And, if you are receiving both Social Security benefi ts and SSI payments, your Social Security check will be deposited on the third day of the month. You should also know that for Social Security benefi ciaries who started receiving benefi ts before 1997, their Social Security checks are paid on the third day of the month. To get a complete schedule of 2022 payment dates, visit SSA. gov/pubs/EN-05-10031-2022.pdf. Receiving Options There are two ways you can receive your Social Security benefi ts. Most benefi ciaries choose direct deposit into their bank or credit union account because it’s simple, safe and secure. But if you don’t want this option, or you don’t have a bank account that your payments can be deposited into, you can get a Direct Express Debit MasterCard and have your benefi ts deposited into your card’s account. This card can then be used to get cash from ATMs, banks or credit union tellers, pay bills online and over the phone, make purchases at stores or locations that accept Debit MasterCard and get cash back when you make those purchases, and purchase money orders at the U.S. Post Offi ce. The money you spend or withdraw is automatically deducted from your account. You can check your balance any time by phone, online or at ATMs. There’s also no cost to sign up for the card, no monthly fees and no overdraft charges. There are, however, some small fees for optional services you need to be aware of, like multiple ATM withdrawals. Currently, cardholders get one free ATM withdrawal per month, but additional monthly withdrawals cost 85 cents each not including a surcharge if you use a non-network ATM. To learn more, visit USDirectExpress.com or call 800-333-1795. When and How to Apply The Social Security Administration recommends that you apply for benefi ts three months before you want to start receiving checks. This will give you enough time to make sure you have all the needed information to complete the application. See SSA.gov/hlp/isba/10/isba-checklist.pdf for a checklist of what you’ll need. You can apply for your Social Security benefi ts online at SSA. gov, by phone at 800-772-1213, or in person at your local Social Security offi ce – call fi rst to make an appointment.

Both races had close finishes, the Women's Race nearly a photo finish as the runner-up, Ababel Yeshenah of Ethiopia, came in just four seconds behind Jerchirchir with a 2:21:05. Two other Kenyans finished third and fourth respectively. An especially touching moment on Marathon Monday took place at the finish line for Henry Richard, of Boston, who was running his first Boston Marathon. Richard, 20, is a college student and the brother of the late Martin Richard, who was killed in the 2013 Marathon bombing tragedy. At only eight years old, Martin was the youngest victim that fateful Marathon Monday. A younger sister, Jane, now 16 years old, lost a leg in the tragic bombing. Henry Richard carried both his late brother and sister with him during the race, with Martin's name etched in marker on his right arm and Jane's name emblazoned on his chest inside his shirt. Henry was also at the bombing scene on Patriot’s Day, 2013, just 11 years old, but emerged from the tragedy with just cuts and bruises. "I know Martin was with me during the race," Henry told reporters afterward, pledging to continue to run the Boston Marathon next year in #127, in 2023, and thereafter in his family's honor. Locally, in the Advocate readership area of Everett, Malden, Revere and Saugus, nearly 40 residents combined from the four communities participated in the Marathon on Monday, most of them able to finish the 26.2 mile race. The top male and overall finisher in Everett was David Pirman, 39, with a time of 4:15:59. Everett's top female finisher was Alexandra Cordoba, 28, at 4:36:47. The top male and overall finisher in Malden was also a firsttime Boston Marathon participant. Patrick Mangan, 30, finished at 3:15:56, 6,069th overall and in the top 25% overall, an impressive accomplishment in his first attempt. Nora Gozzo, 29, was Malden's top female finisher at 3:30:20.

At the event, Simonelli spoke of a wave of enthusiasm and excitement that has arisen in Ward 7, due to a number of initiatives he said he intends to originate, as well as others, already in place, he said he intends to see to fruition. Already on the list was a comprehensive neighborhood improvement project stretching from Lincoln Commons to easterly parts of the ward. Also on tap is a complete renovation of Kierstead Park, plans for which are already in place. These projects were initiated under former Ward 7 Councillor and Council President Neal Anderson's leadership. "We will see these great projects through, which began thanks to the hard work of Councillor Neal Anderson," said Simonelli, with Anderson standing beside him.

We also heard strong support for cultural events and classes that celebrate Malden’s diverse communities, free or reduced-cost programming, and a welcoming atmosphere with comfortable seating in public areas, language access, and programming for kids and teens. We have also learned, by studying similar institutions in other cities, that renting out space is a crucial source of revenue that will be essential for subsidizing the community-centered programs and spaces. In order to be sustainable, the Center must be able to accommodate both uses. We are currently working to hone and refi ne the focus of the building’s programming, whether that’s geared toward performing arts, studios, workspace for community nonprofi ts and cultural institutions, or some combination of all three. You can read more about these options at mapc.org/maldenculture, and we will present our consensus for community feedback at the Courthouse Arts Festival on Saturday, May 14 from 12 p.m. to 4 p.m. A full draft of the concept plan will be released at the end of May for public comment before it is fi nalized this summer. The concept plan is just the beginning of this project. We are still working to purchase the building from the state, which we hope to do sometime this fall. We are also working to secure funding for a more detailed analysis of the necessary structural improvements and what the business model will look like. The long-term plan is for the City of Malden to own the building and contract with a third-party operator with expertise in managing this kind of facility. Once we know more about how much it will cost to retrofi t the building, and we have an operator onboard to manage day-to-day operations, we can work on the actual construction. While we have made great strides in this project, we recognize that we have so much more work to do before we can open the doors.
