Ignored His Record

Murray's manager, bespectacled Tex Sullivan, is “unbelievingly incredulous.” Sullivan acquired such verbiage while serving as secretary to former heavyweight champion Jim Braddock. Truculent Tex ace cuses the “Cleveland crowd” of ignoring his fighter’s record: “Nine

Bo's aggregation is as green as an unripe tomato, for the most part, as far as experience is concerned. They did not benefit from servicemen like some of the other schools.
