KG Murray's Superman Comics #35 was published c.April 1950:

The Courtship of the Three Lois Lanes!, originally published in Superman #61, December 1949
A Dog-Catcher's Life!, originally published in World's Finest Comics #34, May-June 1948
Superman Returns to Krypton!, originally published in Superman #61, December 1949
There are two filler features in this issue.
