Chaney Sends Ohio Fighter To the Pits in Ninth Round

By HARVEY HARRIS

Colion Chaney, 180, hard-hitting Indianapolis heavyweight, had an-

4 other knockout—this one a technical—to his credit today, The victim: | Shelton’ Bell, 170, of Youngstown, O,

The local slugger sent Shelton to the pits for repairs in 2:24 of the ninth round last night after exploding a stinging right on his maxillary before 1600 fans at the Sports Arena.

The end of the fight really came earlier. Chaney stepped out with the last driblets of organized sweat falling from his forehead. There was a short flurry of body blows from both sides for about 30 seconds. Then the Indianapolis fighter decided to stop circulating for the evening and connected with that ‘atomic explosion ot his. The sequence of events saw Bell pick himself up with three nine counts marring his par before Re-

Chaney Heavier

The local beiter, who outweighed 00 the Buckeye by 10 pounds, called the dances during the early rounds. Shelton, however, showed that his right was not meant alone for | greeting purposes, even against the highly touted Chaney. The fifth | and sixth rounds were his as he

When it came Bell was | sliding to the canvas with the sting | | of those hooks in his innards, ori | was hanging on Chaney wondering who was firing that medium- bomb- | er cannon. Colion had the advantage of] welding a powerful right that would | probably have made s. O'Leary’s| cow pick up the marbles. To most rightsiders it was merely a question | of how long he would take before | firing that high explosive ammuni- | tion. | Bell Aggressive 3

Bell walked in frequently and showed aggressiveness. But it wasn't | enough to withstand Chaney's pum-| meling. Al Johnson, local mauler of some distinction annexed his eighth | victory by helping to make over the face of Al Sheridan, former state | light heavyweight champion. Johnson had Sheridan hanging on for| time in the fifth, but failure to use his right enough prolonged the! loser’s departure. Johnson, weigh- | ing 1632, spotted Sheridan 14%
