    At 4:30 p.m. E.S.T. on July 10, 1995, a Registration Statement
on Form S-4 filed by Fifth Third Bancorp ("Fifth Third"),
Registration Statement No. 33-60545, became effective with the
Securities and Exchange Commission.  Pursuant to such Registration
Statement, Fifth Third registered 188,000 shares of common stock
without par value in connection with Fifth Third's acquisition of
the Bank of Naples ("Naples").  The exact number of shares to be
issued in connection with this transaction was to be determined in
accordance with an Affiliation Agreement, as amended, dated as of
April 4, 1995 by and between Fifth Third and Naples and a related
Plan and Agreement of Merger, as amended and restated, dated as of
April 4, 1995.

    Fifth Third hereby files this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to
Registration Statement No. 33-60545 to remove from registration by
means of a post-effective amendment 10,646 shares of the securities
registered thereunder.  The number of shares of Fifth Third common
stock registered under Registration Statement No. 33-60545 was an
estimate of the number of shares necessary to exchange all of the
outstanding shares of Naples common stock into shares of Fifth
Third common stock.  The exact number of shares of Fifth Third
common stock necessary for such exchange could not be determined at
the time of the filing of the Registration Statement because the
exchange ratio was based upon the market price of Fifth Third
common stock for a specific number of days preceding the closing of
the transaction, which could not be determined until a few days
prior to the closing, and thus well after the date of the filing of
the Registration Statement.

   Consequently, Fifth Third hereby deregisters the 10,646 shares
of Fifth Third common stock without par value not issued in
connection with the aforementioned transaction.

                       SIGNATURES

   In accordance with the provisions of Rule 478 and pursuant to
the terms of Registration Statement No. 33-60545, the undersigned
agent and duly appointed attorney-in-fact has signed the Post-
Effective Amendment No. 1 to said Registration Statement on the
date and at the place set forth below.
