Angott Is Suspended
For Non-Defense OF
Title Within Year
N. B. A. Fires at Jacobs
On Boxer Thot Czor
Signs for S Yeors

b the Associated Press.
= WINSTON SALEM, N. c., Sept.
10.-Mfke Jacobs, the boxing baron
of New York. recently signed five
year contract with Sammy Angott,
the lightweight champion, and
thereby gave the National Boxing
Association some ammunition for its
announced warfare against mo
nopolistic control" Of boxing.
The association, holding is annual
convention here, placed Angott on
the suspended list yesterday and
said there's where he'll stay until
he fights. The organization said he
failed to abide by its rule that
titleholder must defend his crown
against a top-rsnking foe within
one year. But that in itself wasn't
expected to prove much of him
drance to Angott. since he is booked
to go against Lew jenkins in New
York October 81.
While the delegates omitted names
in their resolution. they decided to
seek evidence TO break the practice
of ''monopoliStic control which en-
snares all fighters of prominence
and makes them subject to a single
promoter" They said they regarded
the practice as an "insidious in
f1uence contrary to the laws
of the State of New York, in which
most of these inimical acts are
countenanced, encouraged and nur-
tured." Until the resolution was
voted upon, the delegates had spent
most of their time denouncing
Jacobs. They asserted he had a
monopoly on boxing, with the aid
of the New York State Athletic
Commission"
The association planned to ad-
iourn after a brief business session
today. Abe J. Greene of Paterson,
N. j., was expected to be elected
president. Chicago, New Orleans,
st. Louis and the California Athletic
Commission were considered for the
1912 convention.
