Mr.. Anonymous Meets

New York Tomorrow
BY JACK GUENTHER
4 nlted Press stan Correspondent

NEW YORK. March 5.-In
these days of streamlined news
reporting a scoop is rarer than a
roc. a tax rebate OF woman who
doesn't insist on the last word,
but today you may gaze upon one
that is a dandy-after a week of
steady research ! have uncovered
the most anonymous man IN
sports. The name is Sammy
Angott.
AS you almost certainly don't
know, Sammy Angott is light
weight champion of the world.
Tomorrow at Madison Square
Garden he goes 10 the post for the
first time since he won his title.
Most of the seats will be filled, but
the bout. strangely. lacks the
feverish overtoneS normally re-
served for an event OF such
pugilistic significance.
Angott is meeting Ray Mont
gomery. an ebony Philadelphia
who provides more action than an
irate egg beaten, and although the
title won't be at stake the contest
should be memorable. Yet, APP
parently not more than 200 people
realize that Angott is party 10
the affair and all are betting
against him at an lis rate OF
exchange.
HE'S OBSCURE
Now. lis is a terrific overlay in
any bout involving a champion, no
matter how aged tltle-holder
may grow. He is an underdog for
the simple reason that he Is OBJ
Scure The reason Angott hap
pens TO be Mr.. Anonymous is that
in boxing the wages Of virtue are
notoriuosly low. Angott is nice
boy. so he j. a weak attraction.
1t should be a fight well worth
watching. Sammy is at his best
at long range while Montgomery
a real cracker jack. dotes on in
fighting and is a very rugged
citizen.
| have a suspicion that Angott
will win, but whether he does or
not. / hope he gets enough pub
licity out of the venture to con-
vince people that he actually is a
hghtweight-and not a phantom
weight.

Latest Communique
From Front Says All
Is According TO Plan
By LEO MACDONELL

LAKELAND. Fla. March s.
Jack Zeller expected today to be
the turning point in the great
Tiger holdout war.
The general manager predicted a
break in the ranks. which includes
AL Benton. Barney McCosky and
Rip Radcliffe. who are in camp. and
Buck Newsom, Johnny Corsica.
Billy Sullivan, Rudy York ana
Bud Thomas, who did not come
to Florida.
Zeller reported that the clubs
campaign was going according to
plan" He indicated that there had
been gains. if not actual victories
during the past "a hours.
Paul Dizzy" Trout, one of the
clubs most obstinate holdouts,
came into the fold last night. The
pitcher put his name on the dotted
line after a conference with Zeller.
Salary terms, of course, were not
disclosed.
COUNT ON RADCLIFFE
Radcliff, who reported and prac-
Iticed yesterday. was told that he
could make a deal for himself. But
IZeller was confident that Rip
would choose to stay with the
Tigers.
Del Baker, who up to this time
has stayed fairly calm, is now re-
ported to be getting restless. He
wants the holdouts to make up
their minds" There was talk that
the club might again reverse itself
and bar holdouts from training
with the other players.
Declaring that he had heard
nothing new from any Of the hold
outs still at their homes, Zeller de-
clared that as far as the club was
concerned. they could sit at home
as long as they wanted
ROSS ON FIRST:
With threat that York might
: be traded, there was speculation
, among newspapermen here as to
whether or not the appearance OF
, Don Ross at first base in the daily
rworkouts was significant. While
5 Ross played both at third base and
in the outfield for Montreal last
year. he is known also to be a good
q first sacker.

) Gus positions. Ross is an outstand-
ing hitter. He banged the ball for

Detroit had Ross in 1886 but

then he has been committing be-
