"Lee Q. Murray, Norwalk, Conn., joined the list of eager contenders for Joe Louis' heavyweight title today, basing his claim on his 10 round decision over Jimmy Bivins of Cleveland last night - Murray's 16th straight win. Murray, weighing 211 to 184 for Bivins, floored Jimmy three times with short, jarring punches, but revealed defensive weaknesses and was often beaten to the punch and missed his counter-punches by several inches." -United Press
