Description

Photograph of Massanutten Military Academy (MMA) cadets Murray B. “Bake” Baker and Paul N. Zentz.

The cadets are boxing gloves and posed as though about to box each other in what was then called the Harrison Gym (later became Harrison Hall) at Massanutten Military Academy (MMA). They were both members of the academy’s boxing team for the 1935-1936 school year, reportedly the school’s first boxing team.
