SEN. BONCORE ENDORSES ROLLINS FOR SUFFOLK DA

Calling her a transformative leader who will make our jus-tice system fairer for all, Sen. Joseph A. Boncore, endorsed Rachael Rollins for Suffolk County district attorney.

Rollins believes that jus-tice is best served when every person who comes into con-tact with the system is treat-ed with dignity and respect. She is running for Suffolk County District Attorney to keep communities safe and to ensure justice for victims. Rollins is committed to im-proving our criminal justice system through best-practices and data-driven programs that prioritize equity and justice. That includes focusing on treatment, not prosecution, for those swept up in the justice system for minor crimes. This will also allow prosecutors to focus more resources on the serious crimes that undermine public safety like domestic violence and sexual assault, gun violence, and homicides. Rollins is looking forward to working with the city leaders, police, community partners and residents of Suffolk Coun-ty to transform the district at-torney’soffice.

Boncore, a former public defender and co-sponsor of the criminal justice reform bill passed by the legislature this year, expressed his support for Rollins;

“We need a district attorney that will honor the transforma-tive power of the law created

unteered his class to take on the project of designing and building a Viking styled tick-et booth for the new athletic field.

The design, created by high school students in the Viking

Longship class, was given to architect, Tom Chiudina, who created the final rendering,getting the ball rolling on the project that would require the

The Department of Con-servation and Recreation (DCR) hosted a ribbon cut-ting event last Friday to cel-ebrate improvements made to Winthrop Shore Drive in the Town of Winthrop. The $16.5 million project, head-ed by theDCR, significantlyimproved the usability and stability of the roadway. Addi-tionally, the project increases the climate change resiliency and adaptability of the shore line, surrounding lands, and neighborhoods. The comple-tion of the project comes nine months ahead of schedule, andconcludesthethirdandfi-nal phase of agency improve-ments made to the Winthrop Beach region.

Winthrop Beach has seen

its fair share of transitions over the years, including the effects of climate change, which have altered the coastal infrastructure of the shoreline, which runs the length of Win-throp Shore Drive.

Serving as a front yard to many residents, the beach has recently undergone some ma-jor improvements, including

A heated meeting in June between the MassachusettsWater Resources Authority (MWRA) atDeer Island andits neighbors on Point Shirley left many people frustrated. Tuesday night there was no yelling, but there was a lot of frustration at the MWRAcommunity meeting.

Despite the outcry, the Department of Wildlife and Fisheries still plans to goahead with the construction

ofa250-footlongfishingpierand a 20-car parking lot. The project has gone out to bid and proposals are due back by No-vember. Construction could start next spring.It doesn’t appear that the

pier itself is at issue, rather residents are concerned about a second parking lot on the island, speeding, potential increased traffic and overallsafety issues.

Complicating the matter is

the addition of a railing and water fountains, the widening of the sidewalks to allow for more accessibility, improved lighting, new rinse stations, benches, tables, and bike racks and restoration to the roads and walls, making for a more esthetic appearance for residents and tourists. Last Wednesday, Oct. 24, a ribbon was cut to mark the comple-tion of the two-year project, which was completed nine months ahead of schedule, saving months of construction disturbances to residents.

“I grew up on the beach and trust me, this is the best condi-tion this beach has ever been in,” said Town Council Pres-ident Ron Vecchia. “This is a godsend to those who live on shore drive. The beach is com-ing back, and Mother Nature works in mysterious ways.”

Department of Conserva-tion and Recreation (DCR) Commissioner Leo Roy cred-ited the solid partnership that Winthrop had with the DCR through the entire process.

“This is really a testament to the dedication of the DCR staff and the strong partner-ship with Winthrop,” said Roy. “We are committed to

recreation and giving resi-dents the opportunity to enjoy the outdoors. We couldn’t do this alone, and we are grateful for our partnerships.”

The moment was extra

special for those who have a history with the town’s beach-es, and Speaker of the House Robert DeLeo made a point to recognize the occasion as one that was long overdue.

“I’ve been involved in this issue for three decades. This is a very special day for this town, and I thank the residents for their patience. This is a great day for our community.”

work of several students. He provided design ideas to mea-suring and cutting the wood for the frame of the booth, students used traditional tim-ber framing tools using elec-tric saws.

The project, which was started during the 2017-2018 school year, required the work of several students, some of who graduated and moved on, and others from the mid-dle school, who were recruit-ed to work over the summer months.

“When we needed extra help working on the booth during the summer, I put out a request for six middle school students, and several jumped at the opportunity to help,” said Vasili Mallios, eighth-grade math teacher and vet-eran of the Viking Longship class.

While the majority of the work is on schedule to be completed, the trim carvings and shutters will be completed

in the spring. “We hope to have the tick-

et booth closed in, roofed and sided, and have the windows and doors placed before the winter,” said Skane, who has been teaching the class for 21 years. “I can’t thank the Mill-er Field Committee enough for giving the students in the Viking Longship class the opportunity to be involved in the building process. I am extremely proud of all of the students who worked on the ticket booth. They dedicated themselves to the art of build-ing a timber frame house and did an exceptional job. This booth, which is mortise and tenon construction has been hand crafted using the same tools builders worked with hundreds of years ago. They have quite literally, built his-tory. The citizens of Winthrop will not only have a ticket booth, they will have a histor-ical Viking work of art.”

vironment. As a result of his work, he said, “Massachusetts has been named No. 1 in the U.S. for eight years in a row beating out California.”

“Massachusetts will be the first state in the United States with a commercial-scale off-shore wind project, and has committed to 3,200 mega-watts of offshore wind. The first project will provide pow-er to 400,000 plus homes in Massachusetts,” DeLeo said.

“There are now more than 2,000 megawatts of solar in Massachusetts up from un-der 10 megawatts in 2008 and there are now more than 109,000 clean energy jobs in Massachusetts,” DeLeo said.

As House Ways and Means chair, the Speaker has helped build Massachu-setts’ nation-leading climate change policies by champi-oning and voting for the three ground-breaking environmen-tal and clean energy polic-es passed into law in 2008. (Green Communities Act, Green Jobs Act and the Global Warming Solutions Act)

Working with his col-leagues in the House, he has continued to build on this foundation by passing legisla-tion to expand the adoption of clean energy, combat climate change and invest in climate resilience measures via ma-jor clean energy legislation in 2012, 2016 and 2018 and ma-jor environmental legislation in 2014 and 2018.

“Under my leadership, the Commonwealth has invested hundreds of millions of dol-lars for conservation, resilien-cy, energy efficiency, and cli-mate change preparedness,” DeLeo said.

Winthrop and Revere are among more than 200 des-ignated Green Communities across the state. Both commu-nities have committed to cut-ting energy use by 20 percent

over five years and have al-ready implemented projects to bring them well on their way. The $16.5 million Winthrop Shore Drive improvements are complete. There is $11 million for improvements to Revere Beach. Also, the latest Environmental Bond Bill set aside funding for several local projects including $15 million to mitigate against coastal flooding in Winthrop.

Voters can head for the polls on Nov. 6 or can still take advantage of early vot-ing until Nov. 2, and will also consider several contested races. For senator in congress incumbent Elizabeth Warren is challenged by Republican Geoff Deihl and Independent Shiva Ayyadurai.

“I think it’s going to be a close race,” said Paul Caruc-cio, of the Republican Town Committee. “It’s an interest-ing election because the can-didates are on such opposite sides of the spectrum. Eliz-abeth Warren doesn’t relate well to the people in the state. Geoff Deihl is more sincere.”

In the governor and Lt. gov-ernor race, incumbent Charlie Baker and Lt. Gov. Karyn Polito are being challenged by Democrats Jay Gonzales and Quentin Palfrey.

In the attorney general race incumbent Maura Healy is be-ing challenged by Republican James McMahon III, for sec-retary of state incumbent Bill Galvin is being challenged by Republican Anthony Amore and Green-Rainbow party member Juan Sanchez Jr.

For treasurer, incumbent Deb Goldberg is being chal-lenged by Keiko Orrall and Green-Rainbow candidate Jamie Guerin. For auditor, incumbent Suzanne Bump is challenged by Republican Hel-en Brady, Libertarian Daniel Fishman and Green-Rainbow candidate Edward Stamas.

Congresswoman Elizabeth Clark is being challenged by Republican John Hugo. In the district attorney’s race Rachel Rollins is being challenged by Michael Maloney.

Running unopposed are DeLeo, and State Sen. Joe Boncore.

“It is becoming apparent that this midterm election is the most important in a gen-eration,” said State Sen. Joe Boncore. “Our democratic experiment only works if we exercise our right to vote. Don’t just say you’re going to vote on Nov. 6 make a plan to vote – and get your family and friends to join you. The opportunity to vote early in Winthrop, is available right now and I want to thank the Town Clerk’s office for the tremendous job in making that possible.”

“The most important thing to do is vote,” said Cathy Del-Vento, chair of the Winthrop Democratic Town Committee. “The country is at a crossroads amongst the higher leadership and voting gives people an opportunity to go to the polls and send a message. You can’t complain if you don’t exercise your privilege.”

Voters in all communities will have to decide on three statewide ballot questions.

Question 1 is a proposed law in regard to patient to nurse limits. According to the “State Election Information” booklet, a Yes vote would lim-it the number of patients that could be assigned to one reg-istered nurse in hospitals and certain other healthcare facil-ities. A no vote would make no change in the current laws relative to patient-to-nurse limits.

Question 2 is a proposed law, which asks if a citizens commission should be created to consider and recommend potential amendments to the

Constitution to establish that corporations do not have the same Constitutional rights as human beings and that cam-paign contributions and ex-penditures may be regulated. A Yes vote would create a citizens commission to ad-vance an amendment to Unit-ed States Constitution to limit the influence of money in the elections and establish that Corporations do not have the same rights as human being. A No vote would not create the commission.

Question 3 is a referendum on an existing law, which ad-dresses a transgender anti-dis-crimination question. A Yes vote would keep in place the current law, which prohibits discrimination on the basis of gender identity in places of public accommodation. A No vote would repeal this provi-sion of the public accommo-dation law.

At Monday night’s School Committee meeting, Chair-man Valentino Capobianco, offered a resolution reaffirm-ing the Prohibition of Dis-crimination in Places of Pub-lic Accommodation on the Basis of Gender Identity and Gender Expression in Win-throp Public Schools.

Capobianco urged fellow

committee members to adopt the resolution that would show their support for a ‘yes’ on state ballot Question 3, which maintains the current law that protects transgender people from discrimination.

“I think it’s important that we support the push to vote ‘yes’ on Question 3,” said Capobianco. “The law has been in place since 2016, and in this political climate it’s

important to come together on an issue. An overwhelm-ing group of law enforcement agencies and various Republi-cans and Democrats including Gov. Baker and Speaker De-Leo support this as well.”

A ‘no’ vote on Question 3 would repeal the state law that currently protects transgender people from discrimination in public places such as stores, restaurants and even doctors’

offices. In a unanimous decision,

the School Committee agreed to accept the motion.

Recently, other agencies and organizations including law enforcement, the Massa-chusetts Teachers Association, The Massachusetts Associa-tion of School Committees, the American Federation of Teacher, as well as colleges with diverse political back-

School Committee votes on discrimination resolutiongrounds have banned together to show their support on a yes on Question 3.

“By adopting this resolu-tion, it sends a message to our students that we accept them,” said School Committee member Jennifer Powell. “A number of students have had questions about themselves and it means a lot to them to have accepting adults in their lives.”

The resolution comes just days before Massachusetts

voters will be the first in the nation to face a statewide pop-ular vote on protections for transgender people from dis-crimination in public places.

“I know that pre-judgment keeps me from being all that I can be, so surely it will do the same to our students,” said School Committee member, Suzanne Swope. “And there is no proof of transgender bath-rooms causing any violence, based on the research that I’ve done.”

Question #3, Just a Bad Idea

Dear Editor:I have heard a lot of dis-

cussion about ballot Question number 3. The proponents of this bill suggest that this will insure we don’t discriminate against transgender or gender confused individuals. Howev-er, this bill is seriously flawed in addressing true discrimina-tion, and the impact of this bill could actually hurt the small percentage of people who identify as transgender.

I am adamantly opposed to discrimination of any kind against any person. I truly be-lieve everyone must be treat-ed with respect and dignity although; this bill is not just about bathrooms. This bill in-cludes public showers, locker rooms and any public accom-modation.

The reasons this bill will adversely impact everyone including transgender individ-uals are:

Even convicted sexual predators and criminals can claim protection under this bill. This opens the door to massive abuse. There is no way under this bill to distin-guish between those people the bill intends to help and dangerous predators. This puts those most vulnerable (women and children) at risk.

This bill will foster resent-ment by people who believe their privacy is being invaded. This will lead to resentment for the very people we are hoping to support.

This bill provides no mech-anism to prevent abuse be-cause it prevents challenging individuals who may not be transgender or those who have

devious intentions. In fact, questioning anyone claiming transgender protection can lead to fines or even imprison-ment by the questioning indi-vidual.

I have three daughters. I would like to help all in-

dividuals find their personal happiness. However, we can-not simultaneously endanger and imposition millions in the process. Until then, a no vote is needed to protect the chil-dren

Vote No on Question 5Dear Editor,When Winthrop voters

head to the polls on Tuesday it is important they are made aware that the non-binding question, called Question 5, is being pushed by two MIT stu-dents who do not now nor did they ever live in Winthrop. Yet Question 5 only appears on the Winthrop ballot demonstrat-ing that its sole purpose seems to be to insult our community and our intelligence about the great work of Bob DeLeo, our esteemed state representative. When outsiders come into our town with their only goal to discredit a decent, hardwork-ing, and respected public ser-vant, we must as a town stand up and say “No” to that and “No” on 5.

Bob DeLeo has been a pub-lic servant for many years. He served as selectman in our town and has served admira-bly as our state representative. He always puts his constitu-ency first. We are proud that it is our state rep who has been elected by his peers to be the Speaker of the House. And leadership positions aside, Bob has never has forgotten

where he comes from. Bob has always exercised keen judgment and is thoughtful and fair in his leadership roles – doing his best for Winthrop and the rest of the Common-wealth as well. In this world of much uncertainty it is com-forting to know we have Bob DeLeo in our corner.

It is our hope that Winthrop votes a resounding no on Question 5, and sends a clear

message that we appreciate and support our State Rep., Bob DeLeo, and we don’t appreciate the politics of per-sonal attacks through ballot questions. Winthrop is better than that.

Respectfully,Catherine DelVento

As the chair of the board of trustees at Cambridge Health Alliance (CHA), a health system that serves more than 140,000 patients in Cambridge, Somerville, Everett, Malden and Revere, I am writing to express con-cerns about Question 1, the government-mandated nurse staffing ratio proposal on the November ballot. If approved, this mandate would negative-ly impact access to care and services at CHA hospitals and primary care centers.

Question 1 would threaten access to emergency services, increase wait times and force patients to seek care else-where. The law would pre-vent us from being able to

effectively manage a surge in patients in our emergency departments, leaving patients waiting in our reception areas.

The mandate endangers CHA’s unique role in behav-ioral health care for patients at a time when it is needed most in light of the opioid crisis. It would limit access to inpatient behavioral health care, cause delays and barriers to care for other vital behavioral health services and put a vulnerable population at risk. Ratios are not consistent with behavior-al health clinical standards of care and overlook the wide range of clinicians and staff members on our care teams, including social workers and counselors.

Health care staffing is dy-namic, and our nurses make decisions at our patients’ bed-

side based on a wide range of factors including individual patient needs and care team skills. If there is a crisis or emergency, nurses need the flexibility to jump in and help without fear of breaking the law. This proposal would override their clinical judg-ment and expertise.

Ratios would also threat-en CHA’s financial stability. An Oct. 3rd report from the Massachusetts Health Policy Commission, an independent state agency, estimated that the mandate would cost Mass. hospitals up to $949 million to implement. In particular, the Commission flagged the potential impacts on com-munity hospitals, especially those, like CHA, that serve higher percentages of public-ly insured patients. The report

validates our concerns that the high costs of ratio would damage our mission to serve all patients.

In a time when access to care is more important than ever, we fear this proposal would harm CHA’s ability to provide that access and jeop-ardize critical services deliv-ered to our communities.

Joshua Posner is chair of the board of trustees of Cambridge Health Alliance (CHA), a Harvard-affiliated community health system that serves more than 140,000 pa-tients in Cambridge, Somer-ville, Everett and Boston’s metro-north region. The CHA board of trustees is comprised of volunteer community mem-bers from Cambridge Health Alliance’s primary service area.

NO EXCUSES -- BE SURE TO VOTE, EITHER EARLY OR ON

ELECTION DAYThis Tuesday, Nov. 6, is Election Day. Americans across the

country will have the opportunity to choose a new House of Representatives in Washington and one-third of the members of the U.S. Senate in what commonly is referred-to as a mid-term election.

While every election matters, some are more important than others.

Based on our experience -- we can feel safe in asserting that this is the most important mid-term election of our lifetime.

The question before the voters in the mid-term election is quite simple: Do you approve of Trump and want more of the same from the Republicans, or do you want to change with the Democrats?

However, regardless of your answer to that question, it is ir-relevant if you do not get out to vote, an act that represents the purest expression of our approval or disapproval of our elected officials.

Early voting -- which began last week -- is available in ev-ery city and town across Massachusetts up to and including this Friday, Nov. 2. Simply go to your city or town hall and vote at your convenience any weekday this week-- there is no need to stand in lines and get caught up in the maelstrom at the polling places on Election Day.

On the other hand, if you enjoy the adrenaline rush that comes with going to the polls, then do so this Tuesday, Nov. 6.

But either way -- be sure to vote -- it never has been more important to the future of every American.

VOTE NO ON QUESTIONS 4 AND 5There are three ballot questions that will appear state-wide

on Election Day on Tuesday, Nov. 6. We discussed those ques-tions in this space last week.

In addition, there are two other questions, Questions 4 and 5 on the ballots in Revere and Winthrop, that will appear only in Revere and Winthrop for consideration by the voters of those communities.

Both questions apparently were put forward by a pair of MIT students who do not live in either Winthrop or Revere and who know nothing about our community needs or residents. If the proponents of these questions were serious about the issues they are raising, then presumably they would have sought to place these questions on the ballot state-wide.

But inasmuch as they only needed 200 signatures each in Winthrop and Revere in order to place these questions on our ballots, it is obvious that they are not really serious about what they are doing, but rather are doing so here only to make some sort of political statement or have a personal vendetta against Rep. Robert DeLeo or worse have been put up to this base cam-paign by a cowardly person. Whatever the reason, their aim is to impugn the integrity of Robert DeLeo who has served the people honorably of Winthrop and Revere for more than 40 years.

Question 4 states: “Shall the State Rep. from this district be instructed to vote in favor of the global warming solutions im-plementation act which would require the state to create a clean energy roadmap for meeting 2050 emissions limits by the glob-al warming solutions act of 2008, including detailed modeling and analysis interim and sector emissions limits and market based compliance mechanisms.”

Question 5 states: “Shall the state representative from this district be instructed to vote in favor of legislation that would repeal the $45,000 increase in annual compensation for the Speaker of the House of Representatives enacted on House No. 158 by the 190th General Court; prohibit elected officials and their senior staff from engaging in lobbying activity for five years once they leave office, and enact a rule that no member shall hold for more than eight years consecutive years the office of Speaker of the House?”

We urge a “No” vote on both questions for these reasons:First and foremost, we generally oppose ballot questions that

instruct an elected official to vote a certain way because it is contrary to our nation’s founding principle of a representative democracy.

If our elected officials, at any level of government, were to be told how to vote on every issue, our legislative form of gov-ernment would cease to exist as we know it. We elect our fellow citizens to an office with the expectation that they will learn about the issues and they will use their best judgment.

If the voters don’t like what they do, then the voters have the ultimate say at the next election.

Second, specifically as to Question 4, we take a back seat to no one as regards the issues of climate change and taking the steps necessary to end the destructive path that is facing our planet. Indeed, in our view, Question 4 does not go far enough, because it talks about meeting guidelines by 2050 -- yet a recent United Nations report informed the world that the catastrophic effects from climate change may happen within 20 years unless drastic measures are taken immediately.

We have to admit that we’re not sure what Question 4 really accomplishes, but given the time frame it envisions, it would seem to be very little when we need a lot more.

Third, as regards Question 5, it is our view that the vote by the entire legislature creating pay scales for its officers and committee members was long overdue.

Those who talk about the virtues of the private sector, if they were being honest, would be the first to admit that the salary level that existed before the legislation addressed in Question 5 did not even remotely conform to the responsibilities of the job.

Indeed, as we have said many, many times in this column, long before Bob DeLeo became Speaker (and even before he was elected to the House), we believe that our state officials (and teachers, police officers, and firefighters) are woefully un-derpaid.

We were pleased that the Mass. Legislature actually showed some courage -- knowing that there would be political fall-out from the usual suspects -- when enacting the pay scale being targeted in this question, not only for themselves, but also for future legislative leaders.

We urge a “No” vote on Questions 4 and 5.

When communities became established and recognized by the Commonwealth as Cities or Towns, the citizens liv-ing there developed a great pride in where they lived. As the years went by they began to celebrate milestones such as the 50th, 100th year etc., and, in the case of Boston, they are only 12 years away from the 400th anniversary of their founding. Sixteen years ago, Winthrop celebrated its sesquicentennial (150th) an-niversary as a Town with a seven-month series of events running from the March rais-ing of a 31-star flag at the Town Hall signifying the be-ginning of our celebration, which included events by the Winthrop Improvement and Historical Association, Schools, Winthrop Transcript, Library, Art Association, WCAT, Rotary, Chamber of Commerce, the Elks Parade, Cultural Council, restoring the July 3 Yirrell Beach Bon-fire and July 4 fireworks, Point Shirley Horrible’s Parade, a

Playmakers Production, Vet-erans Organizations, Yacht clubs and local Churches who all participated through to the ceremonial lowering of the 31-star flag in October. Rec-ognizing that such celebra-tions were held in the past, pictures from the Town’s 50th anniversary were retrieved for this “Then & Now” article. Picture #1 shows the home of Dr. Benjamin Hicks Metcalf, at 170 Winthrop St., who built an identical appearing build-ing next door at 174 Winthrop St. where he established the first hospital in Winthrop. In picture #2, the 50 year cele-bration committee is shown on the porch of Dr. Metcalf’s home with the members names carefully annotated below it by Harry Whorf, Number 14 in the picture. The small boy in the center front row, Dick Metcalf, became a Doctor like his dad and while serving in WWI was killed in action. Metcalf Square was named in his honor. The 50th celebration consisted of only a

three day series of events in-cluding a parade on July 4, lit-erary exercises on July 5 and Religious services on the 6. Picture #3 depicts the decorat-ed Wadsworth Block which is still standing across the street from the Methodist Church. The right hand corner was Al-fred Tewksbury’s variety store which had earlier occupied a small white wooden building on what is now the front lawn of the Winthrop Public Li-brary prior to its construction in 1898. This building still exists at 389 Winthrop St., where it was moved to. Pic-ture #4 shows a 300 foot by 60 foot white tent set up adjacent to the 1898 Pauline Street Fire Station for celebration activi-ties. The Tower of the Pauline Street School appears above it and the old Town Hall with the flag beside it (where the Police Station stands today) can be seen to the right of the tent. We are all proud to call Winthrop our home town.

ART 851 - 50TH ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION OF WINTHROP BECOMING A TOWN

120 years agoOct. 29, 1998The governor’s race be-

tween Acting Gov. A. Paul Cellucci, a Republican, and Attorney General Scott Harsh-barger, the Democratic nomi-nee, will highlight Tuesday’s state election. Town Clerk Paul Dawson is predicting a turnout of 45 percent.

The selectmen have decid-ed to allow Town Meeting to decide whether to reconsider alternative sites for the pro-posed new elementary schools at Ft. Banks and the present E.B. Newton school, or to build only one, larger elemen-tary school. The selectmen determined that they had no choice but to place the article before Town Meeting because proponents of the article had the required number of signa-tures under state law.

The selectmen announced at their meeting Monday night that there will be zero toler-ance for Halloween prank-sters.

James Brady, former press secretary to Ronald Reagan who was shot by an assassin’s bullet and left partially para-lyzed, appeared on the Win-throp Town Hall green with Congressman Ed Markey to endorse Democrat Scott Harshbarger for governor.

Heather Kahn of Channel 5 was the guest speaker recent-ly at a women’s health forum held at the Winthrop Senior Centre.

E. Arthur King once again is spearheading the campaign for the annual WCAT Squash Raffle, which has been a Win-throp tradition since 1986.

“Pleasantville,’ “John Carpenter’s Vampires,” and “Bride of Chucky” are play-ing at the Revere Showcase Cinemas.

30 years agoNov. 2, 1988A large voter turnout is

expected for Tuesday’s pres-idential election with Dem-ocratic Mass. Governor Mi-chael Dukakis running against Republican vice president George H.W. Bush.

The selectmen have voted to replace the water main on Pleasant Street.

“Crossing Delancey,” “Mystic Pizza,” and “Gorillas in the Mist” are playing at the Revere Showcase Cinemas.

40 years agoNov. 1, 1978Town Clerk John A. Clark

is predicting the largest vot-er turnout in town history because of the candidacy of Winthrop resident Edward J. King for governor. King, a Democrat who upset incum-bent Michael Dukakis in the primary, is being opposed by Republican Francis Hatch. Although acknowledging dif-ferences of opinion over the years with King when King was the executive director of Massport, the Sun Transcript endorses King for governor. Another key contest is the U.S. Senate battle between in-cumbent Republican Edward J. Brooke and Democratic challenger Paul Tsongas.

The selectmen have named three new firefighters, John M. Murphy, George F. Quilty, and Paul E. Flanagan.

Local residents are mourn-ing the passing of Dr. H.B. Greenfield, who practiced in the town for 30 years.

The new Blue Line cars have made their appearance.

50 years agoOct. 31, 1968Tuesday’s Presidential

election between Democrat Hubert H. Humphrey and Re-publican Richard M. Nixon is expected to draw a large voter turnout. Locally, the election will be highlighted by the state representative contest between incumbent Demo-crat Ralph Sirianni and Re-publican challenger Richard Dimes, chairman of the Board of Selectmen. Another race

of interest is that for Sher-iff of Suffolk Count between incumbent Republican John Sears and Democratic chal-lenger Thomas Eisenstadt.

The Advisory Committee has turned down a request by the selectmen and Police Chief Frank Perrone for a transfer of $6,000 to the po-lice reserve fund in order to keep three present reserve patrolman on full-time status through the end of the year. Advisory Comm. Chairman Norman Hubley said that the committee rejected the re-quest because Town Meeting had voted on ths issue and re-jected funding for three more patrolmen. However, Town Counsel Joseph Harvey told the selectmen that they have a legal obligation to do what they feel is necessary to pro-tect the public and property.

Quick police work pre-vented an all-out gang war between two large groups of youths from Winthrop and East Boston who had gathered along Pleasant, Pauline, and Lincoln streets.

Two local youths were ar-rested this week for possession of marijuana in the Centre.

Kirk Douglas and Eli Wal-lach star in “A Lovely Way to Die” at the Winthrop Theatre.

60 years agoOct. 30, 1958Winthrop and the nation

will be watching the election returns Tuesday as Massachu-setts Senator John F. Kennedy seeks re-election, and takes another step into the national spotlight where he already is considered the front-runner for the 1960 Democratic nom-ination for President. Kenne-dy is expected to win handily on Tuesday over Republican Vincent Celeste. On the local scene, the hard-fought cam-paign between Republican in-cumbent State Rep. Fred Bau-meister and Democrat Henry O’Connell, Chairman of the Board of Selectmen, will take center stage. Also of interest will be the attorney general race between Democrat Ed-ward J. McCormack Jr. and Republican Christian Herter Jr., both of whom come from distinguished political lineag-es. In the gubernatorial battle, incumbent Democrat Foster Furcolo faces Republican Charles Gibbons.

In anticipation of the new state law that will require all governmental meetings to be open to the public effective January 1, 1959, the Winthrop Board of Selectmen have an-nounced that all of their meet-ings will be open forthwith.

Rock Hudson and Cyd Cha-risse star in “Twilight of the Gods” at the Winthrop The-atre.

70 years agoOct. 28, 1948A record turnout is expect-

ed for the big Presidential election between incumbent Democrat Harry S. Truman and Republican challenger Thomas E. Dewey. The lo-cal state representative race between Republican Thomas Key and Democratic chal-lenger John H. Backus also is expected to be a big draw.

Alfred Marsh, Chairman of the town’s Youth Com-mission, reports that he has purchased 5,000 hoodsies, 30 gallons of cider, 75 pounds of cookies, 5,000 doughnuts, and 3,800 apples for the eight town-sponsored Halloween parties Saturday night for 3,000 local schoolchildren. The parties for the younger set will be held in the schools with the yacht clubs and the Elks hosting the 13-18 crowd.

Local historian and author Edward Rowe Snow will de-vote his weekly radio show this Saturday morning on WNAC to the history of Pt. Shirley. Snow will talk of the escape of the U.S.S. Consti-tution from British warships through Shirley Gut in 1814 during the War of 1812.

Jane Powell stars in the musical “Luxury Liner” at the Winthrop and State theatres.

80 years agoOct. 29, 1938The first of a series of

goodwill meetings was held Wednesday night at the First Baptist Church on Hermon Street when the Men’s Bible Study Group acted as hosts to many of their Jewish neigh-bors. Guest speakers were Judge David A. Rose and Dr. J.J. Abrams who discussed the topic, “The Jew of Today,” His Ideals and Religion, to the 120 persons, Jews and Protes-tants, in attendance.

The Rotary Club is spon-soring a lecture by the noted author, Dr. Barker, on the top-ic, “How to be In Your Best Health.”

Errol Flynn, Rosalind Rus-sell, and Olivia DeHavilland star in “Four’s A Crowd” at the Winthrop and State the-atres.

90 years agoNov. 3, 1928Though Winthrop boasts

about 500 registered Demo-cratic voters, only about 900 persons turned out for the torchlight parade starting at the Winthrop Theatre on be-half of the Presidential can-didacy of New York Gov. Al-fred E. Smith. David I. Walsh, senator from Clinton, was the principal speaker. Republi-cans continued to do their part to get out the vote on behalf of their presidential candidate, Herbert Hoover, from their headquarters in town.

Halloween parties were held throughout Winthrop at private residences and clubs.

Selectmen Chairman Frank E. Whitman, recently returned from a trip to New Brunswick, spoke of business conditions that he encountered along his route. He said that Maine potatoes were selling for 60 cents per pound, though it was costing $1 to produce them. He also observed that the lum-ber market is slow.

110 years agoNov. 1, 1908There is absolutely no in-

terest in election matters in either Revere or Winthrop and a condition such as the pres-ent one has not been known to exist in either of these places for a long period. The election of Taft for president is a fore-gone conclusion and arouses no enthusiasm on either side.

Town Meeting members voted to purchase a new steam fire engine.

The jewelry store at 485 Shirley St. was robbed Mon-day morning at 2 a.m., the thieves getting in by breaking a window. The entire stock of watches and other jewel-ry, valued at $500, was taken. Police have several clues and believe the work to be that of amateurs.

120 years agoNov. 4, 1898It is reported that three dis-

eases, tuberculosis, typhoid fever, and diphtheria, destroy 157,072 lives in this country each year.

The Board of Registrars added 67 names to the vot-ing list Saturday for a total of about 900 voters for the up-coming state election.

130 years agoNov. 2, 1888The past 10 years has seen

a great expansion of homes built on Great Head. In 1878 there were but five houses there, but today it is one of the most prosperous sections of our community.

The Town Hall was filled to capacity as never before by Republicans who turned out to rally on behalf of their ticket and to shake hands with Congressman Henry Cabot Lodge. The Winthrop Band played outside and fireworks were set off. Lodge spoke primarily on the issue of free trade which as we all know would be a disaster for Amer-ican workers, whose wages will go lower without a corre-sponding decrease in the cost of living.

the jurisdictional boundary for police agencies.

“We need consistent en-forcement. That’s why the frustration,” said Precinct 3 Councilor Nick LoConte.

The Revere-based State Police are in charge of the coastline, from Nahant to Lynn, Revere and Winthrop Shore Drive. The State Po-lice jurisdiction also covers Deer Island. The Winthrop Police do not patrol the is-land, their jurisdiction stops at the causeway to the island. Also on scene at times are the Massachusetts Environmental Police, which has three patrols between Quincy and Swamp-scott.

The MWRA also has their own security firm, Allied In-ternational, which runs two patrols every shift and moni-tors the islands 30 cameras.

“Where were they when three motorcycles went to the top of the hill and stayed for three hours,” said resident John Stasio.

Police Chief Terry Dele-hanty said when calls come in

to Winthrop they will respond and hold the scene for the State Police.

“In the last year we have doubled our patrols over the year prior,” Delehanty said, adding that directed patrol of the area happen every shift.

The other issue concerning neighbors is the hours of ac-cess to the island. Right now the parking lot is open from dusk to dawn. The fish pier will be open 24/7 and there is no gate stopping access the property.

State Trooper Sgt. Edward Troy said they are working on dedicated patrol. He noted that they have given out numerous parking tickets and added that a lot of the cars were from Winthrop.

“I fear for my safety,” said resident Eileen Johnson. “I can see the parking lot from my kitchen window. I see what goes on there.”

Troy said Deer Island is a bad place for a drug deals be-cause there is only one way out. Also he mentioned that Homeland Security cameras can get detailed license plate numbers off cars that go by.

“You need 24/7 policing. I don’t think what you’re pro-posing is good enough,” Sta-sio said. “Or close the park. This place is not secure,” he added.

Resident Tom Derderian, a frequent jogger in the park, opposes closing the park at dark, especially in the fall and winter hours when it gets dark early.

Laskey said they closed the gate to Nut Island in Quincy and it ended up pushing fish-ermen to park in the neighbor-hood. “They have a right to fish 24/7” Laskey said.

“We need a district attor-ney that will honor the trans-formative power of the law created by the legislature this year. I am confident that Ra-chel’s leadership on this is-sue will allow prosecutors to focus their resources on se-rious crimes that undermine the safety of our residents and away from non-violent drug offenders, diverting people from our jails and into sub-stance use and mental health programs that lift people up rather than locking them up” said Sen. Boncore.

Rollins responded by say-ing, “I am honored to have the support of Sen. Boncore who fights every day for the people of his district. I look forward to working with him to protect public safety and make sure we have a justice system that is fair for everyone.”

If elected, Rollins would be the first woman to serve as Suffolk County district attorney, and the first Af-rican-American woman to serve as a District Attorney in Massachusetts.

Election Day is Tuesday, Nov. 6, 2018. To learn more about Rollins or to get in-volved, please visit: www.rol-lins4da.com.

WINTHROP POLICE DEPARTMENT IMPLEMENTS MENTAL HEALTH AND SUBSTANCE USE POLICIES

Police Chief Terence Dele-hanty is pleased to announce that the Winthrop Police Department joined the One Mind Campaign earlier this year, and that the department became a pledge compliant agency over the summer.

The One Mind Pledge is an effort to improve law enforce-ment interactions with those affected by mental illness.

Chief Delehanty took the pledge on behalf of his de-partment in February, and the Winthrop Police Department earned compliance status on July 1.

The One Mind Campaign seeks to ensure successful interactions between police officers and persons affected by mental illness. To join the campaign, law enforcement agencies must commit to im-plementing four critical prac-tices over a 12–36-month time frame.

They are:• Establish a clearly

defined and sustainable part-nership with one or more community mental health or-ganization(s)

• Develop and imple-ment a model policy address-ing police response to persons affected by mental illness

• Train and certify 100 percent of the department’s sworn officers (and selected non-sworn staff, such as dis-patchers) in Mental Health First Aid

• Provide Crisis In-tervention Team training to a minimum of 20 percent of sworn officers (and selected non-sworn staff, such as dis-patchers)

The Winthrop Police De-partment has partnered with the Boston Medical Center, developed two policies related to mental health and substance use response, and trained and certified all officers in Mental Health First Aid and the 40-hour Crisis Intervention Team training.

Winthrop Police’s NAR-CAN Policy ensures rapid deployment of the life-saving medicine to keep people alive so they may discover recovery following an overdose event.

The department’s Recov-ery Team Deployment Policy, which is the first of its kind, was shared with the Interna-tional Association of Chiefs of Police. It forges a connection between the police depart-ment with the health depart-ment to address mental health and substance use challenges in an evidence based, holistic and comprehensive manner before, during and after emer-gency services are rendered.

“These policies combine to provide immediate lifesaving assistance to members of our community who are affected by mental health or substance use challenges,” Chief Dele-hanty said. “Honoring the One Mind Pledge ensures that we’re providing an all-encom-passing and modern policing model that’s responsive and respectful of the needs of the people we serve.”

The creation of a Crisis Intervention Team is an es-pecially important milestone for police departments, as it provides officers vital skills, including verbal de-escala-tion, scenario-based training and personal interactions with mental health professionals. Officers also learn from peo-ple who have experienced and recovered from mental health crises, as well as family mem-bers who have likewise been affected by mental illness.

According to the World Health Organization, one in four people will be affected by a mental or neurological disorder at some point in their lives. The National Institute of Mental Health reports that nearly half of Americans suf-fering from a disorder do so untreated. Such disorders, according to the National Al-liance on Mental Illness, are the third most common cause of hospitalization in the U.S. for both youth and adults aged 18–44.

WPD SUPPORTS REGIONAL INVESTIGATION RESULTING IN NUMEROUS ARRESTS

Chief Terence M. Delehan-ty reports that the Winthrop Police Department assisted the Chelsea Police Depart-ment and other agencies in completing a large-scale sweep resulting in multiple arrests on drug distribution charges.

Teams of officers con-verged on the Bellingham Square area of Chelsea on Thursday morning, Oct. 25, and arrested several individu-als on warrants for illegal dis-tribution of cocaine and hero-in. The operation was part of an undercover investigation targeting street level dealing in Chelsea neighborhoods, including the downtown busi-ness district.

Chelsea Police, Revere Police, Winthrop Police, the Suffolk County Sheriff’s De-partment and Massachusetts State Police collaborated on the operation. As part of a months-long investigation, the agencies have secured ar-rest warrants for 22 individ-uals and took many of those suspects into custody yester-day.

“This case represents just how critical our regional law enforcement collaborations are in solving crime and pre-venting it from spreading from one jurisdiction to the next,” Chief Delehanty said. “I’m proud of all of the work of everyone involved in this investigation.”

CARE DIMENSIONS RECOGNIZES KEITH MANNING FOR COMMITMENT TO VETERANS

Care Dimensions is pleased to announce that their Great-er Boston We Honor Veterans Award recipient for 2018 is Keith Manning of Winthrop. Manning was nominated for the award by Roseann Tri-onfi-Mazzuchelli, veterans’ service officer for the town of Winthrop.

The following excerpts are from from Tronfi-Maz-zuchellli’s nomination: My nominee is Keith Manning, a retired and disabled veteran with 23-years of service with multiple tours in Germany, Iraq, Afghanistan and many more places. Manning is the biggest supporter of fellow Veterans, often driving them to appointments at the VA, checking on them, doing mi-

nor repairs – at no cost – to their home or vehicles, and the list goes on. Every month, he faithfully picks up the mas-sive truck load of food from the Greater Boston Food Bank in Revere and brings it to Winthrop. He also delivers the food to our at home Veterans, checking on their well-being and distributes the food to our Senior Housing complex for the Veterans who can’t make it to our location. He is an active member of American Legion Post 146, which hosts all the Veteran events in Win-throp. Manning is also part of the Honor Guard which serves our deceased Veterans at their funeral service. Keith is a very humble man. He doesn’t boast about what he does for fellow Veterans, he doesn’t complain. He is always there to serve the veterans in our community.

Manning and honorable mention recipients, Margie Labedz of Winchester and Karen Tyler of Wakefield will be lauded at an awards break-fast on Friday, Nov. 16, at 9:30 a.m. at the Hilton Garden Inn, 450 Totten Pond Road, Waltham.

As a Level Four Partner of the We Honor Veterans program, Care Dimensions has joined together with the U.S. Department of the Veter-ans’ Affairs and the National Hospice and Palliative Care Organization to empower hospice professionals to meet the unique needs of dying Vet-erans. The program teaches respectful inquiry, compas-sionate listening and grateful acknowledgement – to com-fort patients with a history of military service and possibly physical or psychological trauma.

“Care Dimensions is ded-icated to promoting and pro-viding the highest quality end-of-life care for our Veterans and to educating community organizations who also pro-vide services for Veterans,” said Sheryl Meehan, direc-tor of volunteer services and chair of the veterans com-mittee at Care Dimensions. Members of the community are invited to attend at no cost. Please R.S.V.P. by Nov. 9 to Jane Corrigan, 781-373-6574 or email JCorrigan@CareDi-mensions.org.

FROM THE PRESS BOX

Super SophBy: Jim Lederman

The list of great sopho-more Viking football stand-outs, includes many players who have led the Vikings to championship teams.

Let’s start with a late legend that led his team to back-to-back Super Bowl games. The late star Anthony ‘Touchdown Tony’ Palmer scored 195 points his senior season and two consecutive all-scholastic seasons.

The original ‘Voice of the Vikings’ Super Soph – Bobby Kneeland, a three-year stand-out who scored 118-points in his junior year. Bobby was a three-sport all-star athlete for the Vikings.

In 1981 – Jimmy Gillis scored four touchdowns in the opening game, his soph-omore season. Jimmy was a star in a backfield of three all-scholastic players. Chuck Sullivan (166 points) and the number one recruit (Division One) in Massachusetts. Steve Staffier (145 points) played for National Championship Team – ‘The U’ – University of Miami in 1984.

Matt Murray (two-time) Boston Herald All-Scholastic co-captains of the undefeated (13-0) Super Bowl champi-ons of 2006. He was a su-per-soph as a sophomore on Gridiron.

This year we have anoth-er ‘Super-Soph’ – Number 16 – (how many all-scholas-tic Vikings wore that covet-ed number?) Bobby Hubert has scored (76 points) this season. On Friday night, the soph-quarterback scored two touchdowns, leading the Vi-kings to a (15-0) victory over Shawsheen on a frigid night in Billerica!

Coach Jon Cadigan called ‘Number 16’ (Palmer, Fucil-lo, Chuck Sullivan) – three

all-scholastic players.Bobby Hubert – The ‘Best’

sophomore in the entire (15-team) NEC.

The future is unlimited for Bobby (Super-Soph) Hubert!

Let’s Go, Vikings!Let the Games Begin!

Winthrop – 15 Shawsheen – 0

The formula for the Win-throp Vikings led the young Vikings, to a 15-0 victory over Shawsheen Tech in a frigid field in Billerica.

Strong defense – a shutout and a soph quarterback who is the most talented sopho-more on a team that has a reputation for ’super’ quar-terbacks in the past.

The Vikings opened the season with a couple of vic-tories and three games they could have recorded a victo-ry!

The Vikings improved to (3-5) with the next stop, a game with Arlington Catho-lic, Saturday.

“We are shooting for a winning season and finish-ing strong, leading up to the ‘big game’, the battle of the ‘beaches’ – Winthrop vs. arch rival Revere on ‘Turkey Day’ Thanksgiving – Nov. 22nd at Della Russo Stadium.

Halftime ReportThe two teams battled to a

shutout at Billerica. The Vi-kings controlled the line of scrimmage and the Vikings earned a shutout with a stout defensive game. The play of senior cornerbacks An-drew Love and Jon Applebee strengthens our defense. The return of soph standout Bry-an Conceciao, who returned after an injury, gives our linebacking trio a big boost, lauded coach Jon Cadigan.

“We rushed for 265 yards and the line continues to im-prove,” said coach ‘Cad.’

WE have a shot at our fourth victory this week,” we need the leadership of our captains Small, Castro and McCone.”

“We must play four strong quarters,” said a smiling coach Cadigan!

tory over Shawsheen Tech Rushing:

Vikings vs. Arlington Catholic

The Winthrop Vikings shooting for a winning sea-son will play Arlington Cath-olic on Saturday, 1 p.m. at Hormel Stadium in Medford (one half mile from Bed, Bath and Beyond, Welling-ton Circle on Route 16).

Arlington Catholic plays in the Catholic Central (large) league A.C. has a (1-6) re-cord. They defeated Mystic Valley on Friday night win-ning (40-6) A.C. averages 17-points per game and al-lows 25 points per game.

The Vikings average 15-points per game and al-lows 22 points per game. The ‘Crystal Ball’ Voice predic-tions – Vikings 27 – A.C. 19

Skimming the SidelinesThe upset of the MIAA

playoffs, took place at Pip-er Field in Marblehead. The NEC champions – The Mar-blehead Magicians fell to number 8 – Dracut (28-14). Marblehead (7-1) lost at home for the first time in two years!

The surprising Saugus Sa-chems defeated Weston in Division 5 North - (27-6). Running back Marvens Jean (you remember his 73-yard touchdown in the rain to de-feat the Vikings) rushed for 266-yards to highlight the Saugus victory (3-5).

Lynn English (number 2 seed) at (7-1) defeated No. 7 Concord-Carlisle) 35-33 at Manning Field in Lynn on Friday night in Division 3. North quarter final (remem-ber English as an enrollment of 1,750 students).

Quarterback Matt Sev-erance completed 11 of 15 passes for 205 yards. English will play _______

The Swampscott Big Blue had the easy task of playing winless (yes, the point sys-tem of opponents wins) Tri-ton (42-20) at historic Block-sidge Field in Swampscott. Coach Sean Driscoll’s St. Mary’s of Lynn Spartans de-feated Georgetown (49-6) at Manning Field in Division 7 North. Look for the Spartans to play in the North finals.

The Revere-Patriots (5-3) defeated North Reading (27-20). The Patriots advance to play the Gloucester Fisher-men. I predict a Gloucester victory at legendary Newell Stadium on Friday night. Fishermen 25 – Patriots 17.

GIRLS SOCCER WINSTWO, FINISHES 10-7-1

The Winthrop High girls soccer team ended its regular season on a positive note with a 1-0 victory at Lynn English Tuesday evening.

Freshman Mia Martucci scored the lone goal of the contest on her own corner kick early in game and the Lady Vikings maintained that margin the rest of the way.

“We had the ball down their end most of the game, but just could not find the back of the net,” said WHS head coach Tracey Martucci,. “We had a strong defense, consisting of freshman sweeper Julia Mar-coccio, Olivia Holmes, Syd-ney Mignosa, Jenna Dorr, Miya Grein, Summer Tallent, and Lily Skomro, all of whom held it together in the back-field for us.”

Last week the Lady Vikings celebrated Senior Night in ap-propriate fashion, defeating Lynn Classical 4-1, a team that had edged Winthrop earlier in the season by a 4-3 margin.

Captain Emma Carleton, captain Sofie LaFratta, captain Hayley McSwiney, captain Olivia Holmes, and first-year Lady Viking Bianca Fregi all were honored for their contri-butions to the WHS girls soc-cer program.

“The girls definitely were pumped and ready to win for our seniors,” said Martucci.

All four of the Winthrop goals were scored by the Lady Vikings’ stellar forward, Mau-ra Dorr. Emma Carleton and Mia Martucci assisted on two of the markers and two were unassisted.

“After Maura scored her first two goals, Classical put two players on her, but she still found the back of the net two more times,” said Martuc-ci.

Martucci and her crew were awaiting word of their seeding and first-round opponent in the upcoming state tourney, That announcement from the MIAA was expected yester-day (Wednesday).

WHS BOYS SOCCERWRAPS UP ITS SEASON

The Winthrop High boys soccer team ended its season this past week, coming up short by identical scores of 3-1 in a home-and-home se-ries with Saugus.

Senior and leading scorer Jaylin Cordes scored the Win-throp goals in both conttests.

“Overall, it was the best we’ve played all season,” said WHS head coach Kyle Gagin. “We built the ball from the defense to midfield and into the attacking third, doing it the way the game should be played. We played well enough to win at least one of the games.”

WHS SPORTS ROUNDUP

BEST HIT ON DEFENSE IN A GAME

Donald Cassidy turned 13 years old last week, and celebrated by putting an opponent to the ground during a recent Win-throp Youth Football game. He was awarded the “Hammer” as a reward for his efforts on the field, happy birthday and congratu-lations--#4 Donald Cassidy.

20 years agoOct. 29, 1998The WHS football team

proved no match for first place and undefeated Gloucester in a 46-12 loss at Miller Field. Viking fullback Chris Sarro scored both of the Winthrop touchdowns. The visiting Fishermen bolted to a 25-0 lead in the first half before Winthrop got on the board.

The WHS golf team ended its season with a 38.5-33.5 win over Everett. Matt Crom-bie, Gino DeAngelis, Owen Trainor, Brian Frazier, Steve Crombie, Peter Bettino, Mark Paulson, and John Nalen all played well for Winthrop. Ju-nior John Donahue will repre-sent Winthrop at today’s State Individual Tournament.

40 years agoNov. 1, 1978A 22-0 shutout of Danvers

on Saturday has propelled the 5-2 WHS football team into contention for at least a share of the NEC title when they meet 5-1 Lynn Classical this

week at the Manning Bowl. Steve Rubin scored two TDs, giving him nine on the season, and carried 24 times for 110 yards. A five yard pass from Vin Eruzione to Mark Tallent accounted for the third Viking TD.

50 years agoOct. 31, 1968The WHS football team

dropped its third straight con-test, 14-8 to Woburn. Run-ning back Danny Gray was Winthrop’s offensive star of the week for the second straight game and Gerry Case was the defensive lineman of the week. Dave Tallent also earned a star for his pass in-terception. Dennis Cash gave Winthrop the lead early in the third quarter. Quarterback Ed Tipping, subbing for injured starter Keith MacFarland, who is out for the season, hit Tallent for the conversion. Woburn scored its two touch-downs thanks to a fumble re-covery at the Winthrop 33 and a wind-blown, bad punt.

Winthrop Youth FootballI had the pleasure of watch-

ing the ‘growth’ of Winthrop Youth football, the past few weeks at Miller Field.

In 2016 coach Sean Driscoll told me, “You have to go to Newburyport to see Winthrop Youth Football play in a game that could lead to a champion-ship for a program that started in 1977.”

The young Vikings of 2016 were coached by Kevin Ad-amson, Chris Ferrara, Chris Viscio, Billy Harris and An-thony Dellaconio.

I watched Winthrop Youth Football in a heart breaking loss to Newburyport. The game was extra special be-cause they were playing in War Memorial Stadium. I scored my last WHS touch-down in Newburyport.

I told coach Driscoll – they have six players who will be ‘standouts’ playing for the Vi-kings when they play for the Vikings at the ‘new’ Miller Field.

In 2017, at the opening of the ‘new’ Miller Field, six freshmen started for Winthrop

on Thanksgiving in 2018, the same seven sophomores are building a championship Win-throp team for the future.

‘Hats off’ to WYF under the leadership of Peter Cag-giano and Mark D’Ambrosio.

Ex-Vikings D’Ambrosio, Derek Brugman, Michael Ferrara, Rob Noonan and Mi-chael DeFelice, are building a strong program that will help the Vikings win another NEC championship.

WE salute the Winthrop Youth Football program!

Hall of Fame on WCATThe 2018 WHS Athletic

Hall of Fame induction cer-emony held on Oct. 20 was broadcast for video. This was the 13th Hall of Fame ceremo-ny.

The ceremony was cap-tured by cameraman Mike Mahoney; the telecast (avail-able for sale) is on WCAT TV, Channel 3.

The committee thanks WCAT and Mike Mahoney for an excellent job. Enjoy the video for your enjoyment on

Channel 3!Go, Vikings!Let the Games Begin!

The Second LineThe 1976 Winthrop Vi-

kings hockey team (26-0-1) captured the Division One State Title in the ‘legendary’ Boston Garden.

I had the honor to write about his super team. They were coached by Billy Falasca (a member of the WHS Ath-letic Hall of Fame, exception-al service).

The fist line of Bobby Mc-Donald, Jakie W. Burke and Joey McDonald scored (212 points). Yes, that is one of the top high school lines in state history – 1976 state champs.

I spoke with Fred Taper Sr. on Sunday morning at JAC’s Café; I had not talked with Mr. Tape in almost one year.

We extend our condolences to the Tape family on the loss of Freddy Tape from cancer, in New Hampshire.

The ‘second line’ had Tape, Paul Plakias and Jackie Brug-man. They were a sensational line for the Division One State champs! It was ironic because on Friday night, I spoke with Paul Plakias (WHS Hall of Fame).

The state champs defeated Arlington (4-1) a team that won many state titles. In the legendary old Boston Garden! The state learned Winthrop High has a great tradition for championship teams (football, hockey, basketball and one state championship in base-ball).

1976 – State Champions! A Vikings ‘historic’ team!Let the Games Begin at

Larsen Rink!

A Costly ErrorThe Red Sox have had

great defense during their ex-traordinary championship run. Nunez, Kinsler, Pearce, De-vers and Boegarts have been awesome!

I committed a ‘costly er-ror’ in my column last week. I omitted my teammate Rich-ard Thibeau on the teammate Richard Thibeau on the Hall of Fame Committee for the induction ceremony.

Richard was baseball cap-tain at WHS and committed few errors at Veterans Field. He was the host at our din-ner in the cafeteria, pre-game meal.

Gas Up – The Duck BoatsThe clock struck 10:30

p.m. on Saturday night. I had stayed awake five consecutive nights from (1:30 – 3:30 a.m.) cheering the beloved Red Sox.

The Sox trailed the LA Dodgers (4-0); my brother lives in the desert in Califor-nia. He called to say, “The Dodgers will win three in a row.” Can you believe that?

I had to stay awake and cheer for the ‘best team’ in baseball. A Steve Pearce per-formance (two home runs) ignited the Sox to score nine runs in one game! It is Satur-day morning, I’m writing my column and confident the Sox will win the World Series.

A.C. (Alex Cora) is push-ing the right buttons. Great pitching from (E. Rod-Nathan Eovaldi and JK (Joe Kelley) Game Winner!

The Class of 2018Some after thoughts on the

induction ceremony of the WHS Athletic Hall of Fame at Winthrop High School.

The Committee thanks the school committee (Chair Tino Capobianco) for giving us the use of the beautiful new WHS Middle/high School and the

use of the magnificent new Shapiro Arts C enter Audito-rium.

Principals Matt Crombie and Brian Curley were ex-tremely co-operative. Jim Leary and the custodians were awesome. To coach Dale Dun-bar’s Viking hockey the com-mittee would like to thank our sponsors. The Winthrop Book Depot Café (Somerset Ave-nue), Robert M. DeGregorio Real Estate and Insurance Agency, New Fed Mortgage (Al Petrilli and Al Petrilli Jr.), MSA Mortgage (Bob Deeb) for their support. The next WHS Hall of Fame will be in October 2020. If you would like to nominate a WHS ath-lete or a Viking team, contact Attorney Christos Tsiotos (617-846-9192).

Let the Games Begin!

The WHS Hockey players were a huge help on Friday and Saturday night.

To the inductees and pre-senters, your professional speeches and the thanks to the Viking Pride Organization on saving Viking sports, were recognized all night.

The next Hall of Fame is 2020. If you wish to nominate a team or individual athlete – please contact a Committee member or pick up a nomina-tion at the office of Attorney Chris Tsiotos!

The Coach and FamilyI had a powerful conversa-

tion with Hall of Fame coach Robert A. DeFelice (Win-throp’s Greatest Coach) at the induction ceremony. How proud he was at the WHS Ath-letic Hall of Fame induction.

Coach DeFelice (in 8 Hall of Fames) after he presented Paul Gallivan for induction on Saturday night!

“My dad (the late Anthony ‘Lefty’ DeFelice) would have been proud of the third DeFe-lice to be inducted (Chris-tine – a member of the 1984 State Championship softball team), brother Francis (Frank) legendary Big Blue baseball coach (450 victories) was the other member of the DeFelice family (induction in 2007). Frank was also a long time

Big Blue football coach. Memories of the DeFelice

brothers facing each other at Blocksidge Field come to mind!

We Salute the DeFelice Family!

Vikings vs. Arlington Catholic

The Winthrop Vikings will take a short trip to Hormel Stadium on Saturday after-noon (1 p.m.)

Arlington Catholic won their first victory of the 2018 campaign, with a (40-8) vic-tory over Mystic Valley. The game is in Division 6 North MIAA non-playoff game.

A victory over AC would improve the Vikings record to (4-5) wit h one more playoff game. The Vikings play their archrival Revere Patriots on the holiday on November 22nd.

By Kate Anslinger

At the end of the 2017-2018 school year, Camila Mi-randa-Llovera was presented with the Harvard Book Award for her hard work and dedi-cation in the classroom. Mi-randa-Llovera, a junior at the time, had the highest GPA in her class. She recently had the opportunity to attend a break-fast at the Harvard Club along with Principal Matt Crombie, where she was honored.

The now-senior is president of the National Honor Society and a member of the mock tri-al team, student council, and a co-organizer for the STEM (Science, Technology, Engi-neering, and Math) Club. She is also active in cross country in both indoor and outdoor track.

What is your favorite subject?

My favorite subjects tend

to be math-based, but I also love the literary subjects, too. Calculus and physics are fun classes because you form a kind of brotherhood with ev-eryone in there, but classes like Spanish and English offer me a nice reprieve from math.

What would your dream job be?

My dream job would have to be an engineer. My older brother majored in engineer-ing at WPI and seeing a lot of the interesting projects he has worked on has drawn me into that realm.

What are your current goals?

Right now, the goal is to get into college, but after that I suppose it’s to major in en-gineering and find the time to run a marathon.

WINTHROP HIGH SCHOOL CLASS OF 1968

50 TH

REUNIONA FULL WEEKEND OF FESTIVITIES

The Class of 1968 held its 50th Class Reunion during the weekend of Oct. 5-7, with all events taking place in Winthrop.

The weekend started with a Welcome Reception at the Point Shirley Association Hall. The reunion committee gives a special thanks to Peter Marks of the Paul W. Marks Company who donated the cheese, crackers, and meats for the appetizers for both evening events. Peter’s donation was made in honor of his brother, Philip, a graduate of WHS.

On Saturday afternoon, 17 classmates took part in a challenging Scavenger Hunt, which took them around the town gathering Winthrop information as it related to 1968. The winning team was Klutz & Company, made up of Harold Becker, Nate and Carol (Silver) Rosenthal, and Marcy Edelstein. All participants had fun as they relived memories of growing up in Winthrop (going to their childhood home and taking a selfie was one of them)!

After the Scavenger Hunt, about 50 classmates toured the beautiful and well-appointed new high school with Principal Matt Crombie. Our “Most Dramatic” couple from our yearbook recreated their yearbook photo in the beautiful new auditorium. Everyone was impressed at the world-class gym in the new school also. After the tour, the Class of 1968 took a photo on the stairs of the new school as they did in 1968.

Saturday evening was the main event at the Cottage Park Yacht Club. Almost 100 classmates and guests enjoyed a buffet dinner, DJ/dancing and, of course, catching up with classmates they haven’t seen in many years. A memorial video was shown in memory of those in the class who are no longer with us. The parting gift was a package of Winthrop memories: A bottle of sand, a picture of Winthrop bookmark, and a logo pen all wrapped in a blue fabric bag.

On Sunday morning, there was a farewell brunch at the Winthrop Arms. Some tears appeared and promises to stay in touch until the next reunion!

For those in the class of 1968 who couldn’t attend, please visit the class Facebook page: Winthrop (MA) Senior High School Class of 1968. The alumni website is: whs1968reunion.weebly.com/. For more information or to update contact information email: winthrophigh68@gmail.com.

The Baker-Polito adminis-tration announced over $10.2 million in grants and loans to assist communities in address-ing deteriorating dams and refurbishing critical coastal infrastructure.

The Town of Winthrop re-ceived $100,000 grant for the Pico Avenue seawalls. The Town of Winthrop experi-enced severe flooding in the Pico Avenue area during the January 2018 winter storm. There are some coastal pro-tection structures in place but they were overwhelmed by the waves and storm surge. This award will be used to explore protection options for reducing flooding in the neighborhood.

The awards, funded by the dam and seawall repair or removal fund and the Gover-nor’s annual capital budget, include engineering phase or construction phase support for nine dam repair projects, five dam removals, and eight coastal protection reconstruc-tion projects.

“The Dam and Seawall pro-gram provides vital support to

our communities so they can better prepare themselves, their economy and natural resources for natural hazards like coastal and inland flood-ing,” said Gov. Charlie Bak-er. “Our administration was proud to recently pass a $2.4 billion bipartisan environ-mental bond bill that includ-ed over $500 million to help communities improve their resiliency to climate change and protect the environment.”

“The significant funding awarded to communities and organizations through our Dam and Seawall Program is an important component of our administration’s efforts to build resiliency across Mas-sachusetts,” said Lt. Gover-nor Karyn Polito, who visited Winthrop during the storm to survey the damage. “By lever-aging local investments, these grants and loans ensure mu-nicipalities are able to com-plete necessary infrastructure work and protect their com-munities from extreme weath-er.”

The Executive Office of Energy and Environmen-

tal Affairs’ (EEA) Dam and Seawall Program will award $10,265,932 in grants and loans to 22 projects to help finalize designs, reconstruct critical infrastructure, or re-move obsolete or unneeded structures. Since its inception in 2013, the Dam and Seawall Program has awarded over $60 million in grant and loans to attend to this important in-frastructure.

“Deteriorating dams and seawalls threaten the safety of residents, infrastructure, busi-nesses, water supply, and the environment, and as a result we are committed to work-ing with municipalities across the state to repair or remove these structures,” said Ener-gy and Environmental Affairs Secretary Matthew Beaton. “Through this program, as well as our nation-leading Municipal Vulnerability Pre-paredness Program and State Hazard Mitigation and Cli-mate Adaptation Plan, the Baker-Polito Administration has made preparing for the effects of climate change and increasing extreme weather

events a priority.”The Dam and Seawall Pro-

gram builds upon the Bak-er-Polito Administration’s commitment to strengthen the resilience of communi-ties throughout Massachusetts by coordinating assistance to cities and towns as they pre-pare for the impacts of cli-mate change. Continuing this commitment, Governor Baker recently signed legislation al-locates over $2.4 billion for investments in safeguarding residents, municipalities and businesses from the impacts of climate change, protecting environmental resources, and investing in communities, and put into law essential com-ponents of Governor Baker’s Executive Order 569 estab-lishing an integrated strategy for climate change adaptation across the Commonwealth, including the Municipal Vul-nerability Preparedness grant program and the Statewide Hazard Mitigation and Adap-tation Plan.

Baker-Polito administration awards $100 thousand grant Pico seawall

The Massachusetts Depart-ment of Transportation (Mass-DOT) awarded the Winthrop Council on Aging a commu-nity transit grant of $46,800 – which the Senior Center will use to purchase a van to transport older residents. The grants is being matched by

$11,700 in local municipal funding.

As part of Speaker Robert DeLeo’s ongoing support of transportation assistance for older adults and people with disabilities, the statewide pro-gram – the State Mobility As-sistance Program – received

$30 million in 2017.“The senior center van is

a key resource for our older residents who need to shop, get to a medical appointment, or visit family and friends,” said House Speaker Robert A. DeLeo. “I was proud to work with my colleagues in the

House to fund the State Mo-bility Assistance Program and am thankful to MassDOT for facilitating this grant. I also want to express my apprecia-tion to the Senior Center for the important work it does for our older residents and their families every day.”

a common topic led by a host-ess, or salonniere.

At Greater Boston Stage Company, theatergoers seeing “The Salonnieres” stage as they enter are dazzled by sce-nic designer Katy Monthei’s splendid, huge gilded, bird cage-like structure, adorned with crystal chandeliers and stunning white-and-gold fur-niture.

Award-winning designer Gail Astrid Buckley’s resplen-dent period costumes punctu-ate the magnificent wealth of pre-French Revolution’s aris-tocracy.

This new work by Liz Duffy Adams is part of the theater’s Don Fulton New Play Project, named after the late philanthropist-benefactor who died in May. The theater is honoring Fulton’s memory by continuing to produce wor-thy new works.

Directed by Producing Ar-tistic Director Weylin Symes, the cast features three vet-eran Boston performers and two newcomers to the the-ater: award-winning Laura Latreille, portraying Henri-ette, the Comtesse de Mare, who mixes up her words and phrases, but is cunning and self-serving. Garbed in black,

Sarah Newhouse portrays Ga-brielle, the Marquise D’Aul-ney, whose austere presence masks her pragmatic, car-ing personality. Award-win-ning actor Bill Mootos por-trays Claude, the Duc de la Beauchene, who shows his true colors as these patron women of the arts, literature and education spin seemingly harmless fairy tales that are veiled political denunciations.

Portraying Madeleine de Sauveterre, newcomer Elainy Mata is charmingly youth-ful and innocent. Set in pre-French Revolutionary Par-is - or as further suggested, pre-Feminist revolution, love-ly maiden Madeleine, who is motherless and lived in a convent, is promised to marry an older duke, to pay off her father’s debts. Frightened, she flees to the literary salon of her late mother’s aristocratic female friends, seeking refuge and advice.

Another newcomer Lisa Joyce, portrays uneducated maid, Francoise, who obe-diently, and at times, grudg-

ingly, answers the aristocrat-ic women’s beck and calls. Francoise can’t read, but she’s clever, hiding her own agenda that’s revealed at the end.

During the Duc’s visit at the salon to meet his young betrothed, Henriette spins a “Beauty and the Beast” type fairy tale that has a happi-ly-ever-after ending, while Gabrielle has a darker, fright-ening version of the tale. Their storytelling is enhanced by Chris Fournier’s lowered lighting and Christine Banna’s projected, cartoon-like silhou-etted figures looming in the background.

There are fun scenes, too, especially when Francoise and Madeleine conjure up and carry out a plan to dupe the Duc and Henriette.

In a printed quote, Director Symes says, “The moment I read Liz’s witty, anachronis-tic fantastical riff on the lead-up to the French Revolution, I was hooked. The play is smart, funny, and has some-thing to say about our world today.”

2ND ANNUAL HALLOWEEN FUN RUN AND COSTUME PARADE

FUN, SAFETY, AND FAMILYOn Oct. 27, little ones paraded around the former Winthrop

Middle School gymnasium, flaunting their outfits as they rode their tricycles and scooters to the “Ghostbusters” theme song. Bike Winthrop’s second annual Halloween Fun Ride and Kids Costume Parade also included bicycle safety tips and pumpkin painting.

“I am a superhero,” said Hailey DeMarco, 8. “I’d like to think of myself as Super H because I have a magic ring that can navigate where stuff is. I can time travel with my watch, and use my scooter to get there. I can also fly with my cape and have wings on my sneakers.”
