Bowie Proposes
December Meet

By JOSEPH b. KELLY
Star Racing Editor

A proposal that all but two Of
the additional 20 racing days
allotted the three Maryland mile
tracks for 1856 be run off at a
December meeting at Bowie has
oeen made to the State Racing
Commission by Donald Lillis,
Bowie president, it was learned
today.
Under Lillis' proposal. two of
the added days would be made
up in the schedule lapse between
the Laurel and Pimpce spring
meetings. The other 10 would
follow the fall close at Pimlico,
with Bowie operating from De-
cember 3 to %.
Under the original schedule
arranged before the Legislature
gave the mile tracks 40 days
each. Pimlico was listed to close
on Saturday, December /.
Profits from the extra days,
under the Lillis plan, would be
shared by the three major as
sociations. Lillis conceded that
his proposal does not have unan-
,imous approval from the other
tracks and that another schedule
will be offered to the commission
when it meets Tuesday in Bal
timore,
1t is understood, however, that
the alternative schedule would
not substantially change the.

more punch in my lineup Dres-

has shown he may be the man

Besides, we've shortened .eftfield

Court UphoIds
|Santee, States
Trial March IS

NEW YORK, Mar. 9 (P).-
Justice Irving L. Levey of the
New York State Supreme Court
today upheld the Injunction
given Yves Santee. former Kan
sas miller. and it was announced
the young Marine officer would
compete in tomorrow's indoor
track meet in Milwaukee.
Santee had been suspended
for life by the Amateur Athletic
Union on February 10 for re-
ceiving excessive expense
moneys. but obtained tempo
rary injunction on March
staying the order. The AAU
challenged the injunction in the
State Appellate Court last Satur-
day but that court also agreed
with Santee.
Justice Levey set March Is as
a date for trial in the case.
Santee's attorney, Charles P.
Grimes, argued as he's been do
ing since the start of the case,
that the AAU Executive Com
mittee had no authority to sus-
pend the runner for life.
Grimes also threw a bombshell
into the proceedings when he
told the court that any excessive
expenses Santee accepted were
with the approval of 'higl1-not
low--AAU officials"
Before today's hearing AAU
officials had argued that action
taken within the framework of
its constitution is not subject to
court action.
ut would be rather sad
situation" said Dan Ferris,
AAU secretary-treasurer, "if we
had to go through a court pro-
cedure every time we wanted
to take action against an ath-
lete. And that's what this situa-
ton could lead to unless we can
prove our right to control anna
teur sports in this country"
Santee, who won the Column
bian Mile against token opposi-
ton in last Saturdays knights
of Columbus meet in New York,
planned to fly to Milwaukee to-
day.
If the permanent injunction
lis granted" Oliver Kuechle,
director of the Milwaukee Jour-
nal meet, said before today's
hearing 1--WE will run the mile
in two sections. Conceivably
Santee could run all alone in his
section"
Kuechle said some of the six
starters scheduled to run against
Santee are reluctant to compete
because they don't know where
they stand as far as the Inter-
national Olympic Committee is
concerned"
