Frank Angots, one Of the Black
Handlers caught in the net Of the law

the police department of Black Hand
activities in East Wheeling nearly two
years ago. today will leave the Ohio
county Jail free man. Angots this
morning completes fifteen months
sentence imposed upon him by Judge
Alan H. Robinson in criminal court.
Briefly, it will be recalled that Al.
COTS was accused Of Black Hand
murder in connection with the same
case in which Tony Lopo. alias Toncy
the Wolf, was sent 10 the penitentiary
at Moundsville. Angels was able 10
show that the man whom he was &C
cused Of numbering attempted to stick
him I'D and rob him and he beat the
would-be robber to it and shot him
first. Enough evidence was introduced
against Angots, however, to connect
him with the Black Hand and. he was
sentenced to serve fifteen months IN
jail.
During his confinement, Angots has
been remarkable prisoner. Entering
