| y Key West Kennel Club Program Produces Huge $459.80 Quiniela Thurs. kek kk Lady Russet, Midnight Caper To Race Tonight The New Year started in| fine fashion for at least one Key West racing fan when he cashed a huge $459.80 Quiniela ticket on the second race of last night’s program. The ‘huge payoff was the result of a sparkling per- formance by Islander, a 50-1 shot, in running second to Bang Bang in that race. The Quiniela payoff top- ped the meeting thus far. The daily double which coupled Bang Bang and Val Victory paid a neat 148.20, The bank night continued in the third race when Deb- ra’s Boy and O. J. ’s Inside’ came in to pay a Quiniela of 117.80. : In last night’s feature race, Burn- ing Bright paid 5.40, 3.60 and 2.80.

Wes Santee Runs Mile In 4:04.2 NEW ORLEANS (#—Hope for a four-minute mile was brighter to- day after Wes Santee of Kansas turned in a record 4:04.2 in the Sugar Bowl Track Meet—the third fastest mile ever run by an American. Santee, holder of the American record of 4:02.4, flashed through a phenomenal 55-second final quar- ter yesterday to break the 15-yea old Sugar Bowl mark of 4:07.7, set by Glenn Cunningham of Kan sas in 1938, The slender Santee, who set the new standard over a damp track, said after the race he wasn't shoot- ing for the four-minute mile, al- though a slip on a wet ‘spot may possibly have cost him two sec- onds, “I was just trying to break Cun- ningham’s mark,” he said. “I wasn't even thinking of trying to break four minutes.” Santee took over the lead just after the field crossed the line at! the finish of the third lap. His time in the final lap was slightly sensational in view of the times turned in on the first three quar- ters. With Bruce Drummond of Oklahoma University and Charley Capozzoli of Georgetown alterna- ting in the lead, the field did the first lap in 60 seconds, the second in 62 and the third in 65.
