bout draw. The boys tipped the
scales at 124 pounds.
De Soto Kayoed
O'Dell and De Soto gave fans
another thrilling battle. A left to

eight round got underway ended
the milling. De Soto sprawlcd on
the mat in corplete oblivion and
remained unconscious while his sec
onds worked over him in his corner
after the count. lie was finally car
ricd from the ring and it was more
than 10 minutes later that he re-
gained his poise in the dressing

O'Dcll showed his usual shifty
form in hopping into the bout with
rush. He got over good right
early in the round and had the ad.
vantage over De Soto in the mixing
that followed.
Just when fans were getting pre-
pared to see De Soto counted out
in these hectic rounds the Los An
geles boy would uncork an attack
and twice he almost sent O'Dcll
down with telling rights. He was
putting up game battle under the
punishment meted out by O'Dell.
Throughout the seventh round
O'Dell kept fusillade of blows rain
ing about De Soto's head and
shoulders.
Then came the eighth. O'Dcll
seemed to have recovered somewhat
as he answered the bell and the
round opened with a stiff exchange.
But O Dell scored a heavy body
punch carly and then during an eX
change he sent two rights TO the
