In other words, according to the selfcOntradicting
Gandh Britain step out Of India that India may be
free from Britain yet Britain to remain in India that
India may be kept free from Japan.
Moreover Gandh indicates, India herself would "vio

In fact, elsewhere in the same book Gandh predicts
that

RUMORS RAMPANT
Between those two announce

to be a catspaW of gangsters. Angott
and his manager, Honest Charley
Jones, denied these rumorS with
open throttle.
Personally, we-just a Nevada

that 27-year-old Angott--a guy

for that reason we extend a

WHO'S
TOPS?

WASHINGTON, Pa, Jan
9. (UP)-Three months af-
ter he startled the boxing
world by announcing his re-
t ire m ent as lightweight
champion. Sammy Angott said today
he never felt in better shape as
he prepared to return to the ring
in an effort to win back the cham
pionship
Explaining that the hand injury
which he gave as his reason for
retiring has healed, Angott an
nounced last night that he had de-
cided to resume boxing and plan
ned to campaign in both the light
weight and welterweight divisions.
MY right hand is all healed, =
Angott said, and I'm ready to take
on all comers."
Sammy said he had been training
for the last week and a half and
found his hand was in perfect con-
dition. Charley Jones, his manager,
is attempting to line up fight and
he expects to have a match either
late this month or early February
Angott said
Whether or not the NBA still
recognizes me as champion doesn't
matter" he said. Il just want to
fight and I'm willing to start all
over to try and win back the title >
Sammy reiterated that a New
York report charging he quit the
ring under pressure of gangsters
was totally untrue. There's moth
ing to that" he declared. ''and
don't know where that report got
started My hand wasn't in condi-
ton for me to fight, and it is now
That's the only reason I laid off.

SPORTS PARADE
AngOtt Act Well Timed

his retirement and his return to
the ring timed perfectly with light
weight fights at Madison Square
Garden? Because Of Charley
Joness sense Of the dramatic
Jones of Louisville, KY. chose
Derby eve in Louisville as the night
he would like to have Angott win
the MIA. portion of the light
weight crown. Angott could have
made more money by fighting
Davey Day of Chicago in some 9TH
er arena that night. But Jones
knew Angott could lick Day, and he
wanted to make it dramatic. He
even had Jack Dempsey down from
New York to referee the bout SC
that there could be no question of
the decision.
Later Angott became undiSputed
champion by walloping Lew Jen-
kins, who was recognized by New
York state.
Since Angott retired on Novem-
Der -, Beau Jack Of Georgia came
on to knock out Tippy Larkin OF
New Jersey, with a far more i'm
pressive kayo than his technical
knockout of Allie Stolz of New Jer-
sey. His victory over Larkin made
him lightweight champion of the
world as far as New York and New
Jersey were concerned, but the Ma
tional Boxing Association refused
TO recognize him.
FREE TO RETURN
With the two Jersey lads belted
out of the 135-pound throne room
by Beau Jack, it is just possible
that Jones and Angott felt them
selves free to return TO the ring.
Mind you, we're not insinuating
that either of the Jersey lads had
racket connections; but we never
can forget Angotts dislike of Jersey
skceterS.
What will happen now to the
| lightweight tornament which is
supposed TO produce a challenger
for Beau Jack lin New York state)
and an ultimate champion lin
MA. territory0
Frankly we do not know. F'ortu-
nstely Angott is not claiming the
title. He is willing TO start at the
bottom and fight up, because he
figures he can lick any lightweight
in the world today, including Beau
Jack. Maybe he's right At least,
we can't remember any lightweight
who licked the Washington wind
mill in the past three years And
! ne never was choosey. ----.
