Gentleman Joe let Lavne bring the fight from every quar ter much to the delight of the home fans but he flicked out that lightning left to send Layne sprawling when the Utah boy got too ambitious. Twice in the last round, Layne drove Louis into the ropes with a hornet-like barrage and i the bomber had to steady himself on the ropes at one point. Joe said after the fight that Layne was "the best thing in sight" that he had seen in the way of a new talent during his western exhibition tour. The International Boxing club, of which Louis is a mem ber, plans to "break-In" Layne in one of their three arenas, Madison Square Garden, Chi cago stadium or Olympic In Detroit, soon.
