Violinist who would rather be a boxer in "The Fiddle and the Prize-Fighter" story of comic book Zip Comics #27 (July 1942). Magician Zambini investigates on behalf of James' distraught mother. He discovers an underhanded boxing manager is just using Graham. The violinist angle brings in plenty of press ("the Battling Fiddler"), and the manager has fixed it so Graham will win a few fights, then lose against a real opponent. The manager will clean up on bets.
Zambini tries to tell Graham, but he won't listen. During the fight Zambini uses his mental telepathy to tell Graham when to punch and when to duck so Graham can win the fight. Graham wises up, beats up the crooks, and goes back to violininining.
