Baseball Standings The Associated Pre: National League MATTHEWS DECISIONS REX LAYNE By JIM COUR PORTLAND, Ore. (Kid) Matthews cleared his first major heavyweight hurdle here Monday night. Matthews, 183%, Seattle, looked impressive in punching out a 10-round decision over Rex Layne, 198'2, Lewiston, Utah. Layne was the first heavyweight of reputation that Matthews had met. His manager, Jack Hurley, said after the fight he hoped to sign Matthews for a match some- time in July with Rocky Marciano, the Brockton, Mass., belter who knocked out Joe Louis. Matthews was just too and hit too hard for Layne, primitive-type mauler who never. theless holds a decision over Heavy weight Champion Joe Walcott. The sharp-hitting Seattle veteran scored the only knockdown in the second round. He set the rugged Layne up with body punches to land his favorite left and right combination to the head The right floored Layne eight count.
