How many chapters of action is the outsiders?

It's hard to give an exact number of chapters dedicated to "action" in The Outsiders because it's a novel about more than just fights and violence.

However, some of the chapters that definitely focus on action include:

* Chapter 3: The rumble between the Greasers and the Socs

* Chapter 5: The tense confrontation at the drive-in

* Chapter 6: The events leading up to Johnny's accidental killing of Bob Sheldon

* Chapter 8: The chase scene after Johnny kills Bob

* Chapter 9: Johnny and Ponyboy hiding out in the church

These chapters contain a lot of physical action, but the story also deals with themes of social injustice, class differences, and the search for identity.

Instead of simply counting chapters, you might think about how action is used to explore these themes. How do the fights contribute to the characters' understanding of themselves and their world?
