JOHNNY C0UL0N WINS
BOUT FROh WAGNER

Johnny Coulon, OF Chicago. former
bantamweight champion, returned to
the roped arena at the Pioneer Sporting
Club yesterday. The 1917 debut Of the
erstwhile title holder was suspicious, so
far as immediate result was concerned.
He defeated Joe Wagner the local
Italian boy by a fair margin in ten
rather interesting rounds. To what ex-
tent Coulon will progress in his cam
paign is a matter Of conjecture. He
showed much Of his former skill
against Wagner. but little of the neces-
sary fighting force.
The real fight Of the afternoon was
between Jack Sharkey, Of the West
Side. and George Hubron. Sharkey won
by the proverbial mile, and the Won
der was that he did not score knock
