"Young Ike Logart of Cuba put in his bid for a chance at the title today after whipping Virgil Akins of St. Louis in a dull duel of contenders at MSG. Akins showed absolutely no pep during the first three rounds which Logart swept easily with left hooks and combinations to the head. Those first three rounds proved the difference. The rest of the spiritless scrap was fairly even." -Associated Press
