"Lou Nova, Van Nuys, Calif., heavyweight, scored his fifth straight ring victory Friday night with a 5th round knockout over Hank Postaway, Camp McCoy, Wisc. Postaway, 178, danced out of danger through the first four rounds but when Nova moved in to take command he did so decisively. Nova, 208, smashed Postaway against the ropes with several rights, then caught him with a left hook for a clean knockout." -Associated Press
