Malden rallies for Thanksgiving Day victory over Medford, 28-24Freshmen and sophomores contribute strongly to winBy Justin McAllister

It was one of the coldest Thanksgiving Days in history,

just one degree, temperature-wise, from the all-time record as 15 degrees froze out Macdon-ald Stadium at kickoff .

Malden also set some sort of record by starting its youngest team – ever – in school history on Thanksgiving Day, with four freshmen and six sophomores on the fi eld at kickoff . But you could not tell that by the action on the fi eld as the Malden High School Golden Tornadoes heat-ed up and battled visiting Med-ford nose-to-nose all morning, rallying to a 28-24 victory in the 131st meeting of the sec-ond-oldest high school rivalry in the nation’s history.

Back-and-forth gameThe back-and-forth game

featured four score changes and went down to the very last

play of the game, when one of the contest’s stars, Malden sophomore quarterback Justin Nortelus, purposely ran out of the end zone to hand Medford a safety on the very last play of

the game as time ran out to seal the win. Malden also swarmed defensively, winning the turn-over count 5-1 by recovering three Medford fumbles and re-cording two interceptions, a

huge day.With the win, Malden takes

a 66-55-10 lead in the series, which began in 1889. It was

New height restrictions proposed for downtown developmentBy Barbara Taormina

A new and improved version of a proposal to limit the

height of buildings in down-town Malden is back on the table with plenty of support from the City Council.

Ward 5 Councillor Barbara Murphy this week proposed limiting the height of multi-family residential buildings in the central business district to seven stories. Murphy asked

that the proposal be referred to a joint hearing of the Or-dinance Committee and the Planning Board.

“Last year, I had put in a pa-per to limit the height of res-idential buildings in the cen-tral business district to six sto-ries,” said Murphy. “We almost passed it; we were short by one vote.”

Now, just about one year later, Murphy felt it was time to reintroduce the propos-

al and restart the debate on height restrictions. “Having lis-tened to some of the concerns that folks had last year, I’ve re-vamped it a little,” she said.

Murphy said she increased the height limit in her pro-posal from six to seven sto-ries because there were con-cerns that the Exchange Street side of the new City Hall build-ing is seven stories, and a six-story limit could threaten the project.

Under the new proposal, the Planning Board will remain the special permit granting authority for buildings that are three to six stories. The City Council will be the permit granting authority for build-ings with seven stories. Mur-phy’s proposal would change zoning that allowed develop-ers to propose buildings from six to 12 stories and instead allow proposals for buildings more than six stories but not

exceeding seven stories. A zoning category for buildings exceeding 12 stories would be eliminated.

Ward 4 Councillor Ryan O’Malley said the problem with a six-story limit is that it would have made several cen-tral business zone buildings pre-existing and nonconform-ing. But a seven-story height limit provides enough flexi-

City Councillors want more details on Vote16 initiative

By Barbara Taormina

School Superintendent John Oteri has thrown his support

behind the proposal that would lower the voting age to 16 in Malden’s municipal elections.

A letter of support from Oteri was a focal point of this week’s discussion on the Vote16 ini-tiative among city councillors and members of the Ordinance

Committee. Although the pro-posal has been gaining ground since it was fi rst presented last summer by members of Mal-den Rising Leaders, councillors agreed to take some time to un-derstand the logistics of grant-ing teens the right to vote.

Still, more and more people seem to be accepting, if not

Malden YMCA unveils unique solar array,highlights cost savings in partnership

with PowerOptions, Solect EnergyLeaders gather as part of innovative “20 for 20” campaignO

n Wednesday, November 14, Malden YMCA leaders joined

their nonprofi t energy partner and local leaders to unveil a sig-nifi cant new solar array which will help the Y reinvest more than $400,000 in the communi-ty over the life of the project.

Malden YMCA CEO Deborah Amaral joined PowerOptions, the nonprofit energy buying

consortium, and Solect Ener-gy at the announcement. “The Malden YMCA is not only com-mitted to meeting the needs of our community, but to invest-ing in its long-term sustainabil-ity and wellness,” she said. “The Y is proud to partner with Pow-erOptions and Solect Energy – two like-minded organizations

working to improve our com-munity for all.”

The solar array on the Y’s roof, which will generate 171 kilo-watts of power, will off set ap-proximately 15 percent of the YMCA’s total power load.

“We couldn’t be more excited for the ways the Malden YMCA and PowerOptions have part-

nered to support the Y’s incredi-ble mission,” said PowerOptions Executive Vice President Meg Lu-sardi. “Our mission is the mission of our members and, from direct cost savings to sound market-place advice and these innova-tive programs, we’re thrilled to see them in action.”

Solect Energy estimates it will save the YMCA more than $400,000 over the next 20 years.

“The Y will benefi t from sub-stantial energy savings, which will allow them to allocate more funds towards their mission-based work,” said Solect Energy Partner and SVP of Business Op-erations Alex Keally. “In addition,

the solar system and its readily available data can serve as an educational tool for their inno-vative STEM programs.”

Also on Wednesday, Power-Options presented YMCA lead-ership with a check for $10,000 as part of its “20 for 20” initia-tive, a fi rst-ever member dona-tion initiative to celebrate the 20th anniversary of PowerOp-tions. The Malden Y will use the funds to support its Full STEM

Ahead program – which combines the enticement of Ro-botics, innovative STEM curriculum developed by Tufts University and peer leadership to instil in middle school age young people an ex-citement for learn-ing and enhanced problem-solving and critical think-ing – all while hav-ing fun.

Since 1998, PowerOptions has delivered more than $2 bil-lion in energy while pursuing its mission of saving nonprof-its and public entities time and money on energy, so those in-stitutions can direct more re-sources toward their own im-portant missions. As part of its 20th anniversary, PowerOptions decided to push the bound-aries of that mission and give back to members with two ex-citing donation programs that put funds directly into mem-bers’ organizations and help

them keep pace with technol-ogy advancements and better prepare for their energy futures. In addition to the 20 donations of $10,000 each, PowerOptions will be gifting 20 electric vehi-cle–charging stations to mem-

bers in the coming weeks.“As a nonprofit ourselves,

PowerOptions has always in-vested in our programs and ser-vices for members,” explained

PowerOptions CEO Cynthia Ar-cate. “This is another way of in-vesting directly into our mem-bers’ missions and energy fu-tures.”

also Malden’s fourth-straight victory in the series, its 10th win in the last 12 games.

For Malden, which had come into the game winless, it was the ultimate “Season Saver” victory, a victory the players and coaches had been work-ing on for some time. Malden fi nished the season 1-9 overall while Medford concluded the year at 3-8.

“There’s no better way to fi nish the season than a victo-ry on Thanksgiving Day over Medford,” said Malden coach Steve Freker, who played in the game as a former Torna-do lineman and was coach-ing in his 19th holiday clas-sic versus Medford, the fi rst as head coach. “No doubt the turkey tastes a lot better with a victory!”

Plenty of standouts for Mal-den

Malden had plenty of stand-outs in the win, most notably junior captain Jerry Mervil, se-nior captains Raushad Moore and Tyler Martineau, sopho-

more quarterback Justin Norte-lus. sophomore split end Matt Bessey and a bevy of fresh-men, including starting line-backer Justin Desimone, quar-terback JJ Costa, kicker Sam-my Solzorano and starting line-men Davenche Sydney and Ivan Tao. Solzorano was the unoffi cial “Unsung Hero” as the ninth-grader avoided some heavy pressure to get off fi ve punts without incident and also managed to keep Medford on the other side of the fi eld with some nicely placed kickoff s.

Mervil, Malden’s leading scor-er with nine touchdowns for the season, added two more to the list on Thanksgiving: one by air and the second on a 33-yard TD catch-and-run reception. He also played a strong game de-fensively at free safety.

Mervil has a sensation-al year

“[Mervil has] been our best player in many of our games, especially the second half of the season when we have been right there with a lot of our opponents and compet-ing for wins,” coach Freker

said. “He had another great game on Thanksgiving.”

Malden’s senior captains Moore and Martineau were sol-id on both sides of the ball, par-ticularly on defense. “Rashaud [Moore] and Tyler [Martineau] really stepped it up defensive-ly on a day we really needed it.”

Nortelus played his best game, completing eight of 15 passes for 152 yards and two TD tosses, one each to Mervil and Bessey, who had three huge catches for 65 yards and the TD on the day. Nortelus also ran for a six-yard touchdown in the fourth quarter, which turned out to be the game-winning points, putting Malden ahead, 26-14, at the time.

Don’t forget about the fresh-men. “We started four freshmen in this game and fi ve sopho-mores. It was easily the young-est team that ever started for Malden in 131 years, no ques-tion,” coach Freker said, “and we used more freshmen in the course of the game; we needed every single one of them and they delivered.”

Being in the right place at the right time

By Virginia Ruane

This all happened a few years ago at Spadafora’s function

hall when it was on Summer Street, Malden, while I was at a Zonta meeting. I sat at a ta-ble with all the ladies and, of course, we were talking about our children and the high pric-es of houses. I made the state-ment that what my daughter and son-in-law needed was a piece of land to buy and have a house built.

One of my friends said, “I have a piece of land I would like to sell.” I could not be-lieve what I heard. I said to her, “Would you sell it to me?”

“Of course I would!” she said.Well, it was music to my

ears. I could not wait to tell my daughter. My friend went to see my daughter and they be-came fast friends. My daugh-ter and son-in-law bought the land. They found a builder. The builder asked if he could buy a small piece of the land and he would build a smaller house and it would not take

from their land, and so a deal was made. Both got what they wanted. My family felt that if I had not been at the right place (the party at Spadafo-ra’s) and at the right time, this big business deal never would have happened.

The next story is a about a young man who had just re-turned from serving our coun-try in the Army infantry during World War II. In his search for a job in an established fi rm, he was in Boston and met an old college friend. His buddy suggested that he apply for a job at his company since they were hiring. Just what he was looking for, as it was a very large oil company! He applied and got the job.

My friend was assigned to the mail room. In high school and college, he had worked for the Postal Service deliver-ing mail so he had the expe-rience necessary. In about a year, his supervisor came to him and said, “I understand that you live in Melrose.” My friend replied that he did. One

of the executives also lived in Melrose and was looking for a chauff eur to drive him back and forth to work, and they asked if he would be interest-ed. My friend was more than happy to do the job!

The executive and my friend developed a friendship, and the boss encouraged my friend to reach further in the company. This became the start of a very successful ca-reer in a national oil company

as my friend rose to become a top executive in the North-eastern United States. (He had the opportunity to go fur-ther, but he would have had to move out of New England. He and his wife discussed it and decided that they want-ed to stay around in this area near family and friends.)

Looking back at the whole experience, my friend feels that the chance meeting of his old college buddy start-

ed him on the path to great success. He believes that he was in the right place at the right time.

I believe success is attained by persistence and hard work, but it helps when you are in the right place at the right time!

Malden considers paper instead of plasticBy Barbara Taormina

Malden may soon join more than 80 other cities and

towns throughout the state that have banned single-use plastic bags.

The Ordinance Committee took a fi rst look this week at a recyclable and reusable bag ordinance drafted by Ward 6 Councillor David Camell. Committee members agreed to gather input from the busi-ness community, and to pos-sibly hold a public forum on the proposal before moving forward with a recommen-dation to the full City Council.

“I think this has broad sup-port throughout the city,” said Ordinance Committee Chair-man/Ward 4 Councillor Ryan O’Malley.

Camell pitched the pro-posal with some of the ar-guments other communities have used to ban the bags. “The life of a plastic bag is 12 minutes, not factoring in Mal-den traffi c, so maybe here it’s an hour,” he joked, adding that, in contrast, it takes 1,000 years for plastic bags to de-compose in landfi lls.

Camell said the bags aren’t accepted into the recycling stream; they clog up storm drains and aggravate fl ooding in areas prone to that prob-

lem. “Getting rid of the bags would also begin to scratch the surface of the city’s litter problem,” he added.

Camell’s draft ordinance, which he described as a start-ing point, would require re-tailers who provide checkout bags to customers to use ei-ther a recyclable paper bag or a reusable bag. Paper bags would need to be 100 per-cent recyclable and contain at least 40 percent recycled ma-terial. Reusable bags must be able to carry 25 pounds and stand up to 125 washings. The new rules on the quality and content of acceptable bags stem from a slew of studies that show the production of paper and reusable bags re-quires signifi cantly more en-ergy and resources and gen-erates more pollution than the manufacturing of single-use plastic bags.

Malden’s proposed ordi-nance would give large retail-ers six months to fully com-ply with the plastic bag ban, while smaller stores would have nine months to make the change. The ordinance in-cludes a set of graduated fi nes for retailers who continue to use plastic bags.

Although city councillors supported the idea, they wanted to first hear from

those who will be aff ected by the change. In many commu-nities that have passed ordi-nances banning plastic bags, retailers are also required to charge customers a small fee for a recyclable paper bag. Boston retailers will be charg-ing customers a nickel per pa-per bag when that city’s ban on plastic goes into eff ect in the next couple of weeks.

“I think it’s very important to do some outreach to the busi-ness community. And what about residents? How do they feel?” asked Ward 3 Councillor John Matheson, who added that a ballot question is typ-ically the best way to gauge community sentiment.

Councillors agreed to dis-cuss the idea with Business Development Officer Kevin Duff y and Malden Chamber of Commerce Director Joan Ford Mongeau.

“I’m very supportive of mak-ing sure that businesses have a good transition,” said Coun-cillor-at-Large Steve Winslow, who also agreed that a pub-lic meeting to hear from resi-dents would be helpful.

“I really haven’t heard any opposition to this,” said Camell. “And the benefit in terms of helping to clean our streets up would be imme-diate.”

Malden YMCA and Medford Rec join forces to benefi t

Medford residentsMedford Youth Center to be unveiled at 30 Forest St.,

Medford Square, Thurs., Nov. 29, 3:30 p.m.MEDFORD – The Malden

YMCA and the Medford Boys & Girls Club are merging to give the combined organiza-tions a powerful platform that will better serve the youths of Medford. With over 170 years of combined service in the community, these orga-nizations provide diverse pro-gramming and unique oppor-tunities for positive youth de-velopment and inspiration for kids and teens.

The “Medford Youth Center” will be located at the Gene Mack Gym, which is where the Boys & Girls Club has been lo-cated since 2001. The Youth Center will continue to be staff ed by the current Boys & Girls Club staff . Administrative functions for the merged enti-ty will operate out of the Mal-den YMCA. To provide even more programming for Med-ford families, the City of Med-ford’s Recreation Department will be moving into the Gene Mack Gym as well and will host additional programming for

both youngsters and adults.“The collaboration between

the Malden YMCA and Med-ford Recreation will add tre-mendous opportunity for our entire community,” said Mayor Stephanie Muccini Burke. “Pro-viding a central location for residents to learn, engage in activities and grow is the goal of our Recreation Department relocating to the Gene Mack Gymnasium. Establishing this Recreation Center will provide our community greater access to programs and activities for all Medford residents.”

Malden YMCA CEO Deborah Amaral said, “Our goal is to pro-vide the very best in youth de-velopment programs for chil-dren and teens throughout our communities. The merger of these two amazing organi-zations will further allow us to achieve this goal and will en-sure that we are able to serve the greatest number of youth in Medford. We are excited to partner with the Medford Rec-reation Department to accom-

plish this goal.”Medford Recreation Director

Kevin Bailey said, “I am excited to have our Recreation Cen-ter at the Gene Mack Gymna-sium. This is a positive step for the City of Medford to have our new Recreation Department join forces with the Malden YMCA. Together, these groups will make a diff erence in the lives of many, many Medford families and we look forward to a very bright future!”

Added Amaral, “The Y looks forward to working with part-ners such as the Friends of the Chevalier Auditorium and Gene Mack Gym, the Cum-mings Foundation, United Way of Mass Bay, Brookline Bank, Century Bank as well as other organizations that have sup-ported the Boys and Girls Club for many years.”

The Malden YMCA has served the Medford, Malden and Ever-ett communities since 1881. Most recently the Y provided

Grand Opening of Residences at Malden StationM

ayor Gary Christenson recently participated in

a ribbon-cutting ceremony at the Residences at Malden Station at 138 Pleasant St. in downtown Malden, just steps

from the MBTA’s Malden Cen-ter Commuter Rail/Orange Line subway stop. The build-ing is one of the few 19th cen-tury multistory business blocks remaining in Malden Square.

The restoration of this prop-erty has been a key compo-nent in the ongoing redevel-opment of Malden’s Pleasant Street corridor.

The $25 million transit-ori-

ented development is a histor-ic rehabilitation of the former Masonic Hall, offi ce and com-mercial space. Built in 1895 for prominent local business-es, throughout the years the building has also served as a community meeting venue for many social and civic organi-zations. The building had fall-en into disrepair and disuse in recent years.

The developers worked closely on a restoration and permitting program with local offi cials to convert the build-ing to a mixed-use develop-ment of 69 market rate resi-dential units and 6,500 square feet of ground fl oor commer-

cial space. The redevelopment included a careful restoration of the original building, which was built in the neoclassical style with a yellow brick fa-çade marked by arched bay windows. Many of the new res-idential units include exposed truss, brick, and restored orig-inal hardwood fl oors.

The development entity is 126-150 Pleasant Street As-sociates LLC, a venture of a Corcoran Jennison Compa-nies affi liate and The Brennan Group. The residential units are 100% leased, and the ground fl oor retail is occupied by East-

Developer Gary Jennison welcomes attendees in the beautiful new space.

Developer Jack Brennan presents Mayor Gary Christenson with a customized M² “Malden Squared” T-shirt.

City to review lead pipe replacement programBy Barbara Taormina

Lead water lines were back on the city’s agenda this week

as city councillors discussed the progress that’s been made on re-placing pipes, and the work that still needs to be done.

Councillor-at-Large Steve Win-slow proposed a meeting with the City Council, Mayor Gary Christen-son’s offi ce and the Water Depart-ment so that the city can develop a strategy to complete the work of replacing all lead water pipes.

Winslow said a new report from Christenson’s offi ce shows some great successes. The city is under a consent decree with the state to replace 150 lead service lines each year. Both lead water lines on city property and lead pipes on pri-

vate property must be updated to be counted as one of the 150 replacements required annual-ly. This year, the city replaced 226 lead service lines or 76 more than what was mandated by the state. However, there are still approx-imately 3,000 more lead service lines that need to be replaced.

Winslow and other councillors believe that the city is ahead of schedule in part because of an ordinance passed last year that required owners to replace lead pipes on their property before a sale of that property. The ordi-nance also requires lead pipes to be replaced if an owner is plan-ning building renovations val-ued at $30,000 or more. Lead wa-ter pipes must also be changed when new tenants move into a

non-owner-occupied multifam-ily home.

“I think we’ve had the wind at our backs with the strong real es-tate market,” said Winslow, add-ing that it’s the council’s respon-sibility to make sure the city doesn’t fall behind in addressing the health threat posed by lead water pipes.

Winslow urged fellow council-lors to consider a strategy to keep the pipe replacement work mov-ing forward, especially if the econ-omy, and particularly the housing market, starts to cool down. And even if property sales continue to help the city to meet its man-date of 150 public side/private side pipe replacements each year, Winslow suggested more needs to be done. “If we stay at 150 re-

placements a year, it will take us 20 years to do this,” he said.

The problem is the same as it has been since the city first learned that both private and public lead pipes must be re-placed. Many property owners are either unwilling or unable to pay for new lead-free water pipes on their property. Last year, city of-fi cials estimated that a property owner’s average cost to do the work would run between $3,500 and $5,000.

The Malden Redevelopment Authority (MRA) has a zero-in-terest loan program to help low-and-moderate income property owners replace privately-owned lead pipes, but it’s unclear if res-idents are taking advantage of that funding.

Ward 1 Councillor Peg Crowe suggested that someone from the MRA join the upcoming dis-cussion and update the coun-cil on the status of the loan pro-gram. “If nobody has taken the loans, we need to know how we can tweak the program to make people want to do that,” she said.

Other councillors mentioned the need for a funding source to assist property owners with lead pipe replacements. Ward 4 Coun-cillor Ryan O’Malley suggested the city ask the Massachusetts

Water Resources Authority for a revolving loan program that would include loan forgiveness.

Still, it may be diffi cult to fi nd enough public funding for loans to cover the scope of the remain-ing lead pipe work.

“Other than us forcing an or-dinance that says you have 36 months to change the pipes, there’s not much we can do,” said Councillor-at-Large Craig Spada-fora. “If we pass that ordinance, we’ll have people who are happy with us, and people who are not happy with us.”

Spadafora said it would be helpful to have a list of outstand-ing properties by type that have yet to upgrade water pipes. He suggested that the city could start by forcing commercial property owners to replace lead pipes. The city could then tackle non-own-er-occupied multifamily proper-ties, and ultimately move on to re-quire pipe replacements for own-er-occupied single and two-fam-ily homes.

Spadafora suggested it is un-likely that people would pursue a loan even if it’s interest free. “I think we need to start with the large properties,” he said. “We have to start forcing some of these property owners to make the change.”

In just one season, Malden High School football ju-

nior captain Jerry Mervil has emerged as one of the top players in Eastern Mass.

Just this week Mervil, along

with teammate Raushad Moore, senior captain, was named First Team All-Confer-ence in the Northeastern Con-ference's (NEC) North Division, a fi rst for Golden Tornado play-ers in their second year in the NEC.

Mervil, a 5-9, 185 rocket, was a two-way starter all year for Malden and led the Tornados is nearly every key statistical category on both sides of the ball. As a free safety, he record-ed fi ve interceptions, including a "Pick 6" for a 23-yard touch-down against Peabody. He also returned a fumble 27 yards for a TD in the season opener against Melrose.

Offensively, Mervil's 10 touchdowns led the Tornados did his over 300 yards both rushing and receiving.

Mervil was named a game captain following a sensation-al two-way game against Pea-body a third of the way into this season and he just kept that "C" tacked on his jersey for the rest of the season, as he continued to show leadership and top-shelf performances.

He played his fi rst two high schools seasons on the other side of town at Malden Catho-lic, but transferred to Malden

High School over the summer and is now entrenched as the "go-to" player on both sides of the ball for the Tornados. Mer-vil will have a lot of eyes on him as the key man to a Tor-nado team which returns 18-of-22 starters on both sides of the ball.

He already is on the radar of a number of college recruiters and has sat with coaches of several New England college football programs in just this fi rst week of the high school off season. The future is bright for this Tornado standout.

The worst-to-fi rst season for Pope John XXIII Tigers foot-

ball of Everett culminates in a Division 8 Super Bowl ap-pearance on Saturday at Gil-lette Stadium with a 9:00 a.m. matchup with St. Bernard's from Central Mass.

Pope John last appeared in the Super Bowl in 1998 while its been since 1997 for St. Ber-nard's, so both of these teams are ending "Super" appear-ance droughts.

St. Bernard's won the 1997 Division 6A Super Bowl, 39-18 over Madison Park and have not appeared since. Pope

John's one and only appear-ance also resulted in a victory, 14-6 over Marian High School in the 1998 Division 6 Super Bowl.

First-year Pope John head coach and athletic director Paul Sobolewski has led a dra-matic turnaround in football, which saw Pope John drop the sport entirely after the depar-ture of former head coach Bri-an Vaughan and then resurrect it last year.

For the past two seasons So-bolewski had coached win-ning seasons at Cathedral High School in Boston, after stops in Georgetown and Winchester. A number of Cathedral play-ers transferred to Pope John along with Coach Sobolewski and have contributed to the big season.

Those who can't get out to Gillette for the opening slate at 9:00 a.m. can see it on NBC Sports Boston. Kraft Sports Productions will produce the television broadcast, which will air all of Saturday’s games on NBC Sports Boston, except for the 6:00 p.m. and 8:00 p.m. games, which will be broad-cast on NECN. The games will also be simulcast on 98.5 The Sports Hub. Additionally, Sat-

urday’s games will be stream-ing on Patriots.com.

The Malden High School football team has a big

"shout out" and thank you to Breakaway Sports Lounge and restaurant on Route 1 for providing a sumptuous and seemingly endless spread of delectable food for the Torna-do Football Team and Cheer-leaders Thanksgiving Eve Team Dinner which was held at the Irish American Club Hall on West Street November 21.

The meal was donated by Breakaway, whose owner Joe Crowley is legendary in his generosity in Malden and oth-er communities, with both the Route 1 Danvers spot and of course, Pisa Pizza on Pearl St. in Malden. The Tornado foot-ball team also is the benefi cia-ry of a special team rate when it orders up a round of pizza for the players. At last count? Mal-den football consumed over 100 pizzas this fall down at the Stadium on a number of nights combined.

Another big thanks goes out to Bobby McVicar, Malden

Sports: Turkey Day leftoversBy Justin McAllister

Make no (wish) bones about it... it was C-O-O-O-L-L-L-D-D-D on Thanksgiving morning for the traditional 131st Malden-Medford game. It was actual-ly just one degree “warmer” than the record for the holiday, which was 14 degrees, set in 1903. Last week on Thanksgiv-ing, it was 15 degrees. When you add in the windchill factor, it dropped all the way down to 0 degrees at kickoff . Bone-chilling, no doubt.

“It was the coldest football game I have ever been a part of,” said Malden High School first-year head coach Steve Freker, who was coaching in his 19th Thanksgiving Game for Malden High and 27th Thanksgiving Game overall.

****Malden High senior captain

Raushad Moore, who start-ed the game at split end and strong safety, is believed to be the fi rst Malden High play-er to play in four straight Tor-nados victories on Thanksgiv-ing. Moore, a 6-2, 210 lb. se-nior, played on special teams in the 2015 win on the road at Medford, a wild 59-26 win. He played on both sides of the ball in the 41-18 victory in Mal-den in 2016. Last year he was a two-way starter at defensive end and tight end in Malden’s 27-22 win.

“Raushad has been a tre-mendous leader for us this year, on a team which only has a few seniors on the fi eld, a very young team,” coach Freker said. “He has been 100 percent loyal to the Malden

community and Malden High School, something so many college recruiters say they re-spect and are looking for from today’s prospects. We wish him the very best.”

Malden also had a strong sendoff with the win to senior Captains Tyler Martineau and Matt Figueiredo as well as se-niors Sean Stout, Evan Heon, Amilcar Ferreira and Leon Mac-Farlane.

****Malden Director of Athlet-

ics Charlie Conefrey made sure that the team was outfi t-ted properly to fi ght the frigid temperatures. Each player was provided a wind-breaking pull-over poncho; a thermal, long-sleeve turtleneck shirt; and heavy thermal socks.

In addition, the City of Mal-den, through Public Facilities Director Eric Rubin, provid-ed a kerosene-powered fl ame heater for each sideline, which

was really put to good use by the players and cheerleaders. “That was a key factor, since it was easy to quickly warm up hands and feet in front of those heaters,” coach Freker said. “The only problem was, the fi rst time the players tried to warm their hands they put them too close to the heater and melted their gloves!”

****Malden High’s defense re-

corded fi ve turnovers on the day, a monster day of take-aways for the Tornados, who did a better than average job in that department for the whole year as well.

Remarkably, the three fum-ble recoveries were all recov-ered by freshmen linebackers, which is absolutely some se-ries record. None was bigger than the second fumble re-covery of the day recovered by Malden’s #59, ninth-grader Justin Desimone.

With Medford trailing by less than a touchdown, 28-24, with just over a minute to play, Medford backup quarterback and senior Joel Disla, in the game due to injury to the Mus-tang starter Keith Barrasso, was stood up by a hard tackle from Malden junior linebacker Jude Alphonse. Right there to cover up the fumble was Desimone, his second recovery of the day. Desimone, believed to be the fi rst freshman ever to start at linebacker for Malden High on Thanksgiving, led the team in tackles as well with 10.

Another freshman lineback-er, Eli Beato, was pressed into duty in the second half as well, and he ended up making a ma-jor contribution with fi ve tack-les and a fumble recovery. Be-ato had been a steady contrib-utor all season on both the var-sity game special teams as well as in practice, where he ran the ball on off ense and sparked the scout defense at linebacker.

“If we did not get those con-tributions from those two freshmen linebackers, we do not win that game. Period. That’s how valuable they were to our defense,” coach Freker said. “We commend our coach-ing staff , particularly lineback-ers coach Steve Almquist [who is also Off ensive Coordinator], and for having those guys ready to go.”

****In addition to the two fresh-

men at linebacker, Malden also started two ninth-graders at off ensive line in the win: 6-0, 260 lb. center Davenche Syd-ney and 6-1, 255 lb. tackle Ivan Tao. Malden’s kicker/punter Sammy Solorzano, who did a tremendous job all game, was another freshman starter.

Sydney, who is the fi rst Mal-den High School freshman

ever named to a league All-Star team in school history, was an-nounced as a Northeastern Conference (NEC) All-Star this week. He also started at de-fensive tackle and played very well. A sixth freshman, split end Jaiven Maurice, caught a two-point conversion for Mal-den early in the game to put the Tornados up, 8-0.

****Following the game, word

spread quickly that the 10th-year head coach for Medford High, Jason Nascimento, had coached his last game for the Mustangs, following the 3-8 campaign, which featured two wins in their last three games.

****Included in the 35-of-41

players eligible to return for Malden next season in 2019 was their top playmaker and leader in all off ensive catego-ries, junior 5-10, 190 lb. speed-ster Jerry Mervil; Mervil hauled in 22 passes for over 300 yards, ran for nearly 300 yards and scored 10 touchdowns. “Jer-ry’s a top fi ve player in the en-tire NEC,” coach Freker said. “He would start both ways for any team in the NEC.”

****Malden also returns two

experienced quarterbacks; one of them does big dam-age whenever inserted into the backfi eld as a fullback, in sophomore Justin Nortelus. Freshman 6-2 quarterback J.J. Costa also had a strong game on Thanksgiving, directing the eventual game-winning drive, which was capped by an 8-yard touchdown run by Nortelus. The 6-1, 225 lb. Nor-telus fi nished the game with two touchdown passes and hit on 8-of-15 tosses for 152 yards.

THE HOUSE AND SENATE: There were no roll calls in the House or Senate last week. This week, Beacon Hill Roll Call con-tinues a series of reports on how local legislators in 2017-2018 voted on roll calls raising, lowering or creating new taxes.

This week: Part one of a two-part series of reports on Sen-ate members’ votes on seven tax proposals.

4 PERCENT TAX HIKE ON MILLIONAIRES (H 3933)

Senate 29-7, approved a pro-posed constitutional amend-ment that would allow a grad-uated income tax in Massachu-

setts and impose an additional 4 percent income tax, in addi-tion to the current fl at 5.1 per-cent one, on taxpayers’ earn-ings of more than $1 million.

Language in the amendment requires that, “subject to appro-priation,” the revenue goes to fund quality public education, af-fordable public colleges and uni-versities, and for the repair and maintenance of roads, bridges and public transportation.

The proposal was supposed to go on the November bal-lot for voters to decide but the Supreme Judicial Court ruled that the amendment was un-constitutional because the

constitution prohibits placing more than one objective in a single proposed constitution-al amendment. The decision noted that the proposal impos-es the tax and then stipulates how the money could be spent.

(A “Yes” vote is for the addi-tional 4 percent tax. A “No” vote is against it.)Sen. Jason Lewis Yes

$2,000 PROPERTY TAX RE-DUCTION FOR VOLUNTEERS OVER 60 (S 2124)

Senate 15-23, rejected an amendment that would raise from $1,500 to $2,000 the amount of property tax reduc-tion seniors over 60 can earn by doing volunteer work in their city or town which has opted into this program. Local cities and towns are not required to off er the volunteer program.

(A “Yes” vote is for the hike to $2,000. A “No” vote is against the hike.)Sen. Jason Lewis No

$1,500 PROPERTY TAX RE-DUCTION FOR VETERAN VOL-UNTEERS (S 2124)

Senate 39-0, approved an amendment that would raise from $1,000 to $1,500 the amount of property tax reduc-tion veterans can earn by do-ing volunteer work in their city or town which has opted into this program. Local cities and towns are not required to off er the volunteer program.

(A “Yes” vote is for the hike to $1,500.)Sen. Jason Lewis Yes

INCREASE PROPERTY TAX REDUCTION FOR VETERAN VOLUNTEERS (S 2454)

Senate 37-0, approved an amendment to a current law that allows veterans to do vol-unteer work in their city or town and get up to a $1,000 property tax reduction in ex-change. Local cities and towns are not required to offer the volunteer program and the de-cision whether to opt in is up to each individual city or town.

The amendment would raise the limit of the allowable prop-erty tax reductions to 175 hours at the current minimum wage of $11 per hour. That would make the new ceiling $1,925.

(A “Yes” vote is for the hike to $1,925.)Sen. Jason Lewis Yes

FEASIBILITY OF PROPER-TY TAX EXEMPTION FOR DIS-ABLED (S 2124)

Senate 38-0, approved an amendment creating a 20-member special commis-sion to determine the feasibil-ity of establishing local option property tax deduction pro-grams for persons with an in-tellectual or developmental disability and family or friends providing care for them at home.

(A “Yes” vote is for the amend-ment.)Sen. Jason Lewis Yes

PROPERTY TAX EXEMPTION FOR VOLUNTEER FIREFIGHT-ERS AND EMTS (S 2124)

Senate 39-0, approved an amendment allowing local cities and towns to give volunteer, call or auxiliary fi refi ghters and emer-gency medical technicians up to a $2,500 property tax exemp-tion for doing volunteer work in their city or town which has opt-ed into this program. Local cities and towns are not required to of-fer the volunteer program.

(A “Yes” vote is for the amend-ment.)Sen. Jason Lewis Yes

INCREASE MAXIMUM DAIRY TAX CREDIT FROM $4 MILLION TO $8 MILLION (S 4)

Senate 17-20, rejected an amendment that would increase the statewide annual maximum amount of tax credit for dairy farmers from a current cap of $4 million to $8 million. Farmers can apply for the tax credit when milk prices, regulated by the fed-eral government, are insuffi cient to cover the farmers’ cost of pro-ducing the product.

(A “Yes” vote is for raising the maximum tax credit to $8 mil-lion. A “No” vote is against rais-ing the tax credit.)Sen. Jason Lewis No

H OW LO N G WA S L A S T WEEK’S SESSION? Beacon Hill Roll Call tracks the length of time that the House and Senate were in session each week. Many leg-islators say that legislative ses-sions are only one aspect of the Legislature’s job and that a lot of important work is done outside of the House and Senate cham-bers. They note that their jobs also involve committee work, research, constituent work and other matters that are important to their districts. Critics say that the Legislature does not meet regularly or long enough to de-bate and vote in public view on the thousands of pieces of legis-lation that have been fi led. They note that the infrequency and brief length of sessions are mis-guided and lead to irresponsible late-night sessions and a mad rush to act on dozens of bills in the days immediately preced-ing the end of an annual session.

During the week of Novem-ber 19-23, the House met for a total of 59 minutes and the Sen-ate met for a total of 46 minutes.

November 30, 2018


High Class of 1985, another remarkably generous individ-ual and close friend of Crow-ley's, who helped coordinate the Thanksgiving team din-ner arrangements with Mal-den High Director of Athletics Charlie Conefrey.

****

Congratulations to Saugus High seniors Todd Tringale

and Jackson Stanton on their recent letter of intent signings to pursue college baseball ca-reers.

Tringale, a 6-2, 195 fi re baller, inked a National Letter of In-tent (NLI) to accept a Division 1 baseball scholarship from UMass-Amherst.

Stanton, a 5-11, 185 catch-er, will be playing his college baseball at St. Joseph College of Maine.

I was fortunate enough to have both coached these two excellent college prospects when they were freshman per-forming on the Saugus High Varsity Baseball team in 2016 and also to have helped advise and guide them on their paths to the next level. Tringale is the fi rst Division 1 baseball schol-arship player in Saugus High history.

A UMass alum myself, I have continued to maintain a great relationship with Minute-man Athletics. When I former-ly served as Malden Catho-lic head baseball coach from 2000-2012, we sent no less than 11 players to UMass-Amherst on Division 1 base-ball scholarships, two of them who advanced to the pro-fessional ranks (Nick Serino, Washington Nationals, 2009), Pete Copa, Los Angeles An-gels, 2011).

The present UMass baseball coaching staff of head coach Matt Reynolds and pitching coach/recruiting coordinator saw Tringale perform at sev-eral college prospect exposure events I coordinated and were thrilled to get Todd into the Minuteman fold. Stanton also was seen at several events by SJM Head Coach Will Sanborn

prior to his commitment.Congratulations and good

luck to both Sachems, next

spring in their fi nal high school seasons and in the future as collegiate standouts.

embracing, the idea.“Voter participation has been

sadly lagging in recent decade most starkly among young peo-ple 18-30,” wrote Oteri in a letter to the City Council. “By allowing 16 and 17-year-olds to vote in municipal elections, we have the opportunity to whet their appe-tite and start them on a path of civic engagement that can and will make a diff erence in state and national elections.”

Oteri said lowering the vot-ing age would give students a chance to see how their voic-es and choices make a differ-

ence. “It would be a terrifi c ex-perience to vote for representa-tives who make decisions that directly impact their lives, spe-cifi cally school committee poli-cies,” he said. “… Many of our 16 and 17-year-olds work, pay taxes and contribute to programs that support and sustain our citizens.”

Several members of the Ordi-nance Committee were ready to recommend that the City Coun-cil submit a Home Rule Petition to the state legislature to allow Malden to change the city char-ter and lower the voting age. Voters must also approve the change through a ballot ques-tion. But other councillors felt

that the council needed more information on how Vote16 would work.

“I think we need to fi gure out our infrastructure,” said Ward 1 Councillor Peg Crowe. “Will their votes be hand counted?”

Some type of separate voting list for 16 and 17 year olds will probably need to be kept since they will only be voting in city elections.

“I think that before we sent it to the legislature, we have to know what it looks like and how it’s going to be,” said Crowe.

City Council President Debbie DeMaria agreed that councillors need a fuller picture of what the

change would entail before they can decide to support a Home Rule Petition. “We need to bring in the city clerk and the assistant

registrar of voters,” said DeMaria. “It’s all in the details. I think we need a plan and we need to know if it’s doable.”

Notice of Public HearingCity of Malden

A Public Hearing will be held by the Malden CityCouncil in the John and Christina Markey SeniorCommunity Center, 7 Washington Street, Malden, MA on December 04, 2018 at 7:00 p.m. The purpose of this hearing is to adopt a Residential Factor for Fiscal Year 2019

bility and leeway. “I appreciate this paper, it gets to what res-idents want,” he said. “It’s the essence of what we are trying to do here.”

Ward 6 Councillor David Camell, who was one of sev-eral councillors who asked to

be listed as cosponsors of the proposal, thanked Murphy for bringing back the issue of height restrictions. “We do hear quite a bit from residents ask-ing us to address what’s going on in terms of having the right amount of growth,” he said.

Councillor-at-Large Craig Spadafora also threw his sup-

port behind Murphy’s new proposal. Hopefully, this time around it will be successful,” he said. “The residents have been very vocal about where they want to see Malden going.”

The public hearing on the new height restriction is ex-pected to be scheduled for some time in January.

DOWNTOWN | FROM PAGE 1

“Our youth was not out of desperation, either. These young freshmen and sopho-mores deserved to play, and I give credit to our coaching staff for preparing them for the most important game of the year,” coach Freker said. “No other game we play is even close to this one in importance, none of them.”

The game started wild and woolly and never let up. Mal-den turned the ball over on its very fi rst play of the game on a bad snap and lost fumble, and Medford looked golden with a fi rst-and-10 from Malden’s 21-yard line. Three plays later Med-ford returned the favor when junior Khali Hardmond inter-cepted a pass by Medford se-nior QB Keith Barrasso.

Malden proceeded to drive right down the fi eld on a se-ries of runs and passes, includ-ing two big catches by Bessey. Five plays later, just as the sec-ond quarter began, Mervil was in the end zone on a 17-yard touchdown run and a 6-0 Mal-den lead. Nortelus hit freshman Jaiven Maurice with a conver-sion pass for an 8-0 lead.

That might have woken Med-ford up, and the Mustangs took the driver’s wheel for a good portion of the game with Bar-rasso, their sensational QB, leading the way. Barrasso, who led the game in the statistical categories with 230 yards rush-ing on just 17 carries and three TDs, scored the next two TDs on long runs of 56 yards and 33 yards.

Medford took full control in second

Medford seemed in full con-trol, headed for another score with a fi rst-and-10 at Malden’s 24-yard line with 3:21 left in the first half, when the turn-over bug bit them again. This time it was a fumble recovery by Malden freshman starting linebacker Desimone, the fi rst of two the ninth-grader hauled in on the day.

Nortelus came up big on the next play, a 51-yard pass com-pletion to junior Ishmael Sylus, which gave Malden fi rst-and-10 at Medford’s 17. Nortelus car-ried eight yards for a fi rst-and-goal at the Medford 9 with 58 seconds left in the half.

Medford’s defense stiff ened, and after a sack Malden faced fourth-and-goal from the Mus-

tang 11. With 11 seconds left in the half, Nortelus found pay dirt, hitting Bessey on a slant pattern for an 11-yard TD to tie the game at 14-14. The conver-sion pass was no good and Mal-den had tied the game.

“That was such a key to the game. It was the fi rst time all season we were not trailing at halftime, and it gave us such a boost and a lot of con-fi dence,” coach Freker said.

Malden kept the momentum in the third quarter, and with three minutes left to go in the period, used another intercep-tion, this time by Sylus, to start another drive in Medford terri-tory, this time at the Mustang 45. Another big catch by Bessey gave Malden a fi rst down at the Medford 34. After a keeper by Nortelus to the Mustang 30, the soph QB then fl ipped a short pass to Mervil out of the back-fi eld. Mervil weaved twice and then sprinted untouched from the Medford 20 for a 30-yard TD pass, and Malden took the lead for good at 20-14 with un-der a minute to go in the third quarter.

After the fourth Mustang turnover of the game, a fumble recovered by another Malden freshman, linebacker, Eli Bea-to, who played most of the sec-ond half and made a number of key tackles, the Tornado squad switched to clock-eating mode with 8:05 left in the game.

Costa and Nortelus led the way on key TD

"We changed our approach and got exactly what we were looking for when we put fresh-man J.J. Costa at QB and Jus-tin (Nortelus) in the backfi eld," Coach Freker said. "J.J. (Costa) has been outstanding all sea-son for us at the varsity level when he's been called upon and we really needed him in this game. His poise and per-formance really helped get us to the win by leading our last scoring drive."

Malden went “beach attack” for the drive, with Nortelus, Mervil and Costa eating up ground yards. It was Norte-lus punching it in from the six-yard line which gave Malden a mega-“insurance” TD with 4:44 to play as Malden shaved off nearly fi ve minutes of clock time. Costa then hit Moore with a key conversion pass for a then-commanding 28-14 Mal-den lead.

“We knew it was not over, not with that kid [Barrasso] over

there,” coach Freker said. “We knew we had to hold them on one of their last two posses-sions.”

Predictably, Medford went all-Barrasso, all the time, the rest of the way, since Malden – led by Desimone, Moore, se-niors Sean Stout, Evan Heon and Martineau and sopho-mores Ralph Deus and Nick Cardoso – had stuff ed every-thing else other than Barras-so’s running.

Barrasso scored his third TD of the game fi ve plays later with 3:44 to play, and Malden went three-and-out as the Mustangs had one last shot.

Barrasso Right and Barras-so Left gave Medford a first-and-10 at Malden’s 17 with 1:42 left to play; however, disaster struck for Medford on the next play when Barrasso went down with a leg injury after a Jude Al-phonse tackle and had to leave the game, not to return. Joel Disla replaced Barrasso, and di-saster struck again for Medford, when two plays later, he fum-bled the ball and it was recov-ered by the freshman Desim-one, the defensive MVP of the game, with 51 left to play in the game.

Malden had forced Medford to burn its timeouts on the pre-vious drive and was able to run the clock down to two seconds. Nortelus, on fourth down and seven from the Malden 9-yard line took the snap and ran out of the end zone for a safety, ending the game.

“Ironically, it was a similar score and a similar ending in last year’s game, but we chose to punt and it was nearly blocked,” coach Freker said. “No way are we doing that again. The safety was the best move.”

“We were really proud of our clock management in the sec-ond half; I think it was really the diff erence in the game,” coach Freker added, “plus our defense and all those turnovers. Our de-fensive coordinator, Mike Bar-bati, deserves a lot of credit for his game-planning as does offensive coordinator Steve Almquist, with a number of great play calls and, of course, our clock management.”

“It was our best game of the year at the best time; it was really great to send our seniors off with a win,” coach Freker said, “and it was great to see our younger players

The pair would reconnect years later in a shared carpool to the GE, where Michael was an airplane engine drafts-man. Alice and Michael were married in 1950, enjoying a long romance over 43 years of marriage and raising four

children—Sheila, Charlie, Te-resa and Robin—in Malden’s Maplewood neighborhood. Hardworking, loyal, kind and loving, Alice was a voracious reader and media consumer with whom you could have discussions on nearly any sub-ject. A great conversationalist and an empathetic listener, she would make new friends wherever she went, from the grocery store line to a dinner party. She was also a free spir-it who appeared in her son’s MTV music video in the 1980’s, enjoyed traveling throughout the US, and never missed the

chance for a hot fudge sundae or a dance in the kitchen. Her memory and laughter will live on through her four children (Sheila Farren Billings and her husband Tom of Salem, MA; Charlie Farren and his wife Marianne of Chelmsford, MA; Teresa Farren Starble and Gil-bert Starble of Winthrop, MA; and Robin Farren and her hus-band Michael Haag of Malden, MA), her ten grandchildren (Donovan, Zachary, Shauna, Ivory, Veronica, Oliver, Zhong-mei, WenQi, Jasper and Dex-ter), her eight great grand-children, and the many niec-

es, nephews, cousins, fami-ly and friends too numerous to list but never forgotten. A private memorial service was held at Puritan Lawn Memo-rial Park in Peabody, MA. In lieu of fl owers, please buy an ice cream cone for someone you love.
