MICHAEL JAM ES MURRAY One look will tell you that this gay young blade, Mike Nlurray, hails from that glen of real men, XVest Seattle. .-Xfter grade school at Holy Rosary, Mike saunf tered toward Adelphia in 1951. His fresh- man semesters were well filled with a season with the Frosh Football team, a period with the first-year Sodality, and in the spring, a turnout with the Soph-Frosh baseball nine. lN1ike's special hobby has lost its main ingredient this past year because Mr. Hurley is no longer around to be mocked. ln keeping with his witty sense of humor, Mike listed his favorite saying as Got any paper? .Xnd this same humorous nature is sure to help him suc- seed in whatever line of work he may enter. :Cha 41? LAWRENCE JOSEPH MACKAY ln the swarm of transfers plaguing the front office in 1952 was one headed by the name of l.arry Nlaeliay, a tall, dark- haired native Californian.
