https://www.wischess.org/index.php/... has Carl Anderson.

A Robert Reel won in 1933 and 1944 according to that site.

I wonder if the third game here was played by him: Roy Reel.

Chessbase gives Robert Reel for the two simul games on this page. The Capablanca game has a source, so I doubt CG is wrong there.
