"Ellsworth (Spider) Webb, an 11-5 underdog making his first 10 round start, scored a unanimous decision over experienced Holly Mims of Washington, D.C., Wednesday night in a dull televised bout in the Chicago Stadium. Webb, just two months out of the Army, was the favorite on all scoring cards as he slapped Mims almost at will and got little punishment in return except in the early rounds." -Associated Press
