- <p> WITHDREW. Evelyn Murphy, 50, Massachusetts lieutenant
- governor; from the race for the Democratic gubernatorial
- nomination; in Boston. While Governor Michael Dukakis was in
- Europe two weeks ago, Murphy ordered the laying off of state
- workers to try to close the state's deficit. The stunt
- backfired, and Murphy's ratings plummeted in the polls. Her
- exit left the field for this Tuesday's primary to veteran pol
- Francis X. Bellotti, the heavy favorite, and acerbic academician
- John Silber.
