Matthews
Winner in
Hard Bout
CLEVELAND. O., Dec. 6—W—
Harry Matthews had another vic
tory for his impressive record to
day. but the crack Seattle light
heavyweight was a weary fighter.
The No. 1 contender for the light
heavyweight crown held by Joey
Maxim ran into unexpected opposi
tion last night in winning a unani
mous 10-round decision over hard
hitting Danny Nardico of Tampa.
Fla.
Although he got a thorough
pasting for his efforts, Nardico
shook up the west coast battler
en a number of occasions with
his dynamite-laden fists.
Jack Hurley, Matthews’ manager,
was the first to admit that his
fighter didn't perform like he has
in the past.
"He was very sloppy and couldn’t
put two punches together during
the entire fight,” said the studious
ring veteran who changed Matt
hews’ style and made him one of
the hottest names in boxing.
"He took more punches than he
usually takes in a year.”
“Matthews had the flu a few
months ago and I don’t think he
has fully recovered his strength,”
he added. “He was dead tired after
the second round.”
In Matthews’ last two previous
fights, Hurley pointed out, his
battler won early round knock
outs and hadn't had to extend
himself. Hurley said he planned
for Matthews to take a good rest
after his fight Dec. 13 with Art
Henri in Omaha.
Tnen he is hoping to line up a
bout with heavyweight Rocky Mar
ciano or heavyweight champion
Joe Walcott. He doesn’t think he
has much chance of lining up a
title bout with Maxim at an early
date. -
Matthews, undefeated in’GC starts,
pounded Nardico’s face into a crim
son pulp and straightened him up
repeatedly w-ith pile-driving blows
to the body.
Given Hard Smashes
But he had difficulty avoiding
Nardico’s hard smashes to the head
and he fought a noticeably more
cautious fight after getting his first
sampling in the third round.
Judges Her Williams and Charlie
Bill scored it seven for Matthews,
two for Nardico and one even. Ref
eree Jackie Davis gave Matthews
(eM}L and Nardico two. Matthews
weighed 175 to 176 for Nardico.
The bout in Cleveland Arena was
the feature on the Cleveland News
annual toyshop fund show. Some
13,808 fans paid a gross of $90,000.

Williams
involved in
Trade Deal
COLUMBUS, O., Dec. 6 — -7P1 —
Ownci' Ellis Ryan of the Cleveland
Indians said today it would not
surjfri c him if the Boston Red Sox
traded Ted Williams to the New
York Yankees.
I would say the Yankees have
the best chance of getting Wil
liams,” he said. “That. is. if Bos
ton really wants to fade Ted. New
York has more to oifer, in the way
of good young dispensable players,
than any other club."
Ryan denied an oft-rumored
story that Williams had been of
fered., to the Indians for ace right
hander Bob Lemon and catcher Jim
Hegan. He refused even to dignify
a more recent yarn whereby the
Indians were supposed to get Wil
liams via a three-cornered deal in
volving Larry Doby and the St.
Louis Browns Ned Carver.
“That’s the most ridiculous thing
I've heard yet,” he laughed.
Previously, General Manager
George Weiss of the Yankee: has
