which led to fhe original fame
of the hotel and fhe town Of
Santa Fe.
Though Santa Fee is not on the
ocean, the springs will be made

The slightly Anticipated plumbing

modern bathrooms, Mills said,
and the dark lobby win be brigh-

will be another feature of the re-
furnished Santa Fe.
The hotel is four miles from
Jucaro Lodge, owned by the Bar

in the Isle OF Pines at the same
time that Mayor Vincent Impel-

MOIesworth May Switch
To Colts Front Office
By the Associoted Press

BALTIMORE, Dec. 19.-Offi-
Gals of the Baltimore Colts said
yesterday they are considering
whether to remove Keith Moles-
worth as head coach and move
him upstairs" to management.
It's been suspected for three
weeks that MoleSWorth might
be relieved of coaching the
Colts, who returned to the Ma
tional Football League the past
season.
He met Thursday in New York
with Carroll Rosenbloom, prin-
cipal owner, and Don Kellett,
president and general manager.
The officials yesterday issued
a statement that they were in
agreement that Molesworth was
the type of man they wanted in
the Colt organizat ton. His long
experience in football as a
player and coach qualities him
for a key post in a professional
football organization"
Kellett said further "that an
other meeting is planned in the
near future in order to deter
mine if Molesworth will best
serve the Colt organization as
head coach or in a higher man
agement position"

York States revenue from pari-
mutuel betting at its running
race tracks in 1858 was almost
ST million more than last sea-

released yesterday showed that
although attendance and betting
dropped off slightly, the State
received $32,525, 900 from thor

This was the result of change
in racing laws which increased
the total deducted from pari-
mutuel pools by l per cent and
the States share of deductions
by 2 per cent.
The handle for 1877 days of
racing, one less than in 1852,
was $374,479,656, as compared
to $382.131. 1856 a year ago.
Attendance dropped from A.
545, 1891 in 1852 to 4,501.555 in
1858. The report pointed out
that these decreases of less than
l per cent in attendance and
2 per cent in betting, were even

Boxing Board Demands
Proof Of Patterson's S Aue

NEW YORK, Dec. 19.-The
New York State Athletic Com
mission has reinstated Randy
Turpin. Sidelined Floyd Patter-
son until his age is clarified and
approved Archie Moore's light
heavyweight title defense against
joey Maxim January q at
Miami.
Turpin'S suspension was i'm
posed after the British boxer be-
came involved in legal problems
after his defeat by Bobo Olson
The Patterson case was a bit
involved. Manager Gus DAmato
was advised not to sign any con-
tracts for future fights until he
produces "irrefutable proof" of
PatterSon's age. According to
D'Amato, Patterson actually is
18 and will be 19 January 4. Ac-
cording to New York law, an 18-
year-old can not fight more than
six rounds unless given special
permission by the commission.
Patterson has been fighting
eight-rounders all year. He is
unbeaten in nine pro starts.
1t appeared likely that Patter-
son, the 1858 rookie of the
year" probably will be given
special permission for longer
fights after a thorough examina-
