A graduate of Tufts College and
former instructor in economics, Mur-
ray has coached Marquette football
teams for 10 years. During that
time he has gone through three sea-
sons undefeated and his teams have
scored more, than 1,400 points while
holding their opponents to an average
of less than four a game.
Until they lost to Detroit October
’7, 'Marquette Teams had been unde-
feated in 13 consecutive games. The
winning streak started against Boston
College in November, 1929.
An even better record was estab-
lished in 1922 and 1923 when Murray’s
team failed to lose a contest in two
years. The other undefeated tedm
was in 1930.
Coach Murray thinks the most no-

regime was over the Naavy in 1924.
