LAWRENCE, Kans., June g.
IF you hooked Bannister onto
the Twentieth Century Limited
he couldn't beat Santee."
It was cocky Yves Santee talk
ing just before the ace University
of Kansas miller took off today
for California and another crack
at the 1884 mile mark set by
England's Roger BanniSter last
month.
Santee, who often refers to
himself in the third person and
owns the second fastest time ever
recorded in the mile, 4:01.3,
added:
"Bannister ran his super mile
without pressure. There'd be
pressure if guys like Barthel and
Santee were in the race"
Santee referred to Josy Barthel
Of Luxembourg, the 1,50Q-meter
Olympic champion whom he
hopes to meet in the mile in the
AAU Relays in Los Angeles
June IL.
Considers Barthel Best.
Santee runs the mile at the
Compton Relays tomorrow night
and the $50 at Stockton Satuf-
day night.
Il consider Barthel the worlds
No. l miller" Santee said. Bar
thel won in the Olympics. Ban
mister was an also ram and Aus
tralia's John Landy failed to
qualify for the finals"
Santee says he's confident he
can beat "any and all comers
in a mile foot race"
He wants it known he believes
in running against "all comers,
regardless of the possibility of
losing the race"
California weather and track
fans are just right for cham
pionship running" Wes offered.
Il intend to run extra fast on
the Coast before going into
service"
Has Been Pointing Training.
Santee, who will join the Ma
rines about June 13, ran his
4:01.3 mile in the Missouri VAL
ley AAU meet at Mission, Kans.,
last Saturday. He's been point
ing his training toward the final
California event.
At Compton. Santee expects a
"heck of a fast race" with Ing
var ErikSSon of Sweden and
Russ Bonham of Whittier (Calif.,
College.
Nal Whitfield, the Olympic
champion at 800 meters in 1852
and one of the worlds fastest
half-milerS, should be most
worthy competition at Stockton.

A moment later, Marberry's voice was on

been in no accident and had lost no leg.

doomed, "and you know lost that two years

in the past five years and has
won them all. His only loss to
the Tigers since he came to the
majors six years ago was ad-
ministered in 1949.
McDermott won 18 games last
year and 10 in 1852, but both
seasons his record against De-
troit was 10. He posted a 20
mark against them in 1851 after
neither winning nor losing
against the Tigers the previous
year.
Stone Shows How.
1t is with some misgiving that
Manager Bucky Harris sends
McDermott against the Tigers.
They're loaded with right
handed hitters and they're par
ticularly rugged for a lefthand-
ed pitcher, Harris said, "but
Dean Stone showed him how to
beat them"
Stone, the Senator's surprise
Of the season, notched his third
victory without a defeat last
night as Washington walloped
Detroit, 7-2. The 6-foot-4 left
handler became the first south
paw to start, finish and win a
game against the predominately
righthanded Tigers.
The big rookie, who allowed
only two hits in six innings be-
fore weakening against the Ath-
letics in his first start last week,
likewise permitted the Tigers
only two hits in six innings be-
fore being touched up.
.RunneIs Bangs Homer.
He didn't yield a hit until
AL .Kaline singled to start the
fifth and by that time the SEN
atorS had Staked him to a 60
lead, scoring two runs off Steve
Gromek with two down in the
first, one in the third and adding
three more in the fourth, when
Pete Runnels banged his first
Griffith Stadium homer over
the rightfleld fence with Joe
Upton and Stone aboard.
Stone finished strong despite
developing two blisters on his
fingers. He was nailed for two
runs in the seventh, after Ka-
line and Pitcher Bob Miller sin
gled. Charley Kress, running
for Kaline. and Miller advanced
when Bob Wilson grounded out,
and Don Lund got them across
with another single.
Stone, who got three of his
f1ve StrikeoutS in the final two
innings, wound up with a neat
six-hitter and Harris admira-
ton.
Quick Improvement.
"He didn't say anything to
anybody about the blisters,'
Bucky said. II didn't know
about them until Upton told me
after the game. I like the fact
too, that Stone was mad at him
self for WALKING four hitters Ho
wants to improve.
i couldn't get angry about it,"
Harris continued. II remember
it wasn't so long ago that he was
a threat to walk everybody in the
park. He's come a long way in
a short time. He's got something
on his fast ball, has a fair curve
and a respectable slider to 90

to use the additional money
At least $50 of the money will
be used to boost agriculture in
the field, mainly from the stand
point of additional personnel.
More intensive ON the farm as
sistance is the ultimate aim.
Daughtrey said
Present plans are to selec- pilot
counties to do intensive work on
farm and home development IN
OF h er counties, the work will
probably be done on a county
wide basis. working with a given
number Of farms and homes Sc

make this work possible. the E,x-

Is assistant agents (l8 assistant

counties. The counties are now
being chosen.
The five supervisory districts
now have an average Of 90 count

the increasing work load and the
increasing responsibilities OF the
district supervisors, the areas arc
100 large for effective superViS-
ion So he proposes to create
