Carlson (R-Kanl Monday denounced as "cruel and unfair" the barring for lift fromjrack evenU of Wes San tee, America's main hope for the 4-minute mile. The Amateur Athletic Union, by its action, Carlson said, is "setting the stage for one of the most rut ting Russian propaganda roups ev er knowingly and unnecessarily given," He said the AAU's expense rules are "decadent." The AAU's action, was taken Sun! day after its Executive Committee heard a report by an investigating committee that Santee receievd about $1,500 more than the allotted expenses for participating in track meets. . Attorney Plant Case Santee's attorney. Charles F. Grimes of New York, has an nounced that the courts will be asked to enjoin the AAU from car rying out the suspension. If this move fails, Santee will be barred from further participation In track, including this year's Olympics in Australia. The speedster has come closer to the 4-minute mile than any other American, In 4:00.5. He was this country's main hope in the 1,500 meter run in the Olympics, in which the Iron Curtain countries have several top runners. Carlson, taking the Senate floor to express his shock at the AAU's action, said the ruling places "a blight for life" on the Kansas ath lete. Expense Money Admitted "I would be less than (rank if I did not state I think he has taken more money than is allowed under the decadent rules of the AAU for amateur standing." Carlson add ed. "But let us be practical about the matter. "In all fairness, I would suggest that the AAU review its rule in re gard to payments that could be made to athletes of amateur stand ing, without violations of their rules or the loss of participation for life that has Just been given Wei Santee." Prison Sports Told to SBC Athletics play a major role at the Oregon State Prison for both guards, employes and inmates, the Salem Breakfast Club was told Monday morning at the Senator Hotel Lt. Hoyt Cupp, prison guard training officer, and Max Mars hall, former Salem Senator and major leaguer who rules the in matt activities, explained the pro gram. ' Cupp told of the strict 'qualifi cations that a man must pass be fore becoming a guard and then revealed the many sports that the guards may enjoy. They include pistol and rifle teams, basketball, aoftball ana bowling teams. Warden Clarence Gladden, who was quit an athlete in his younger days, encourages his guards to participate in sports so that they may stay alert and physically fit. Warden Gladden, besides taking part in the more conventional sports such as basketball, track and boxing while in college, was also a star on the College of Pa cific rugby team and made the all northern team in the rugby league of that time. For the inmates, Marshall re ported, there is baseball, boxing, volleyball, s f t b a 1 1 basketball, track and football.

The Marion County B Lesgue basketball chase closes tonight, and when it's all over the Jeffer son Lions are expected to be found waving the 1056 pennant. Coach Oral Lee's Lions are one full game up on the Mill City Timberwolves, and need only a win tonight at Detroit to put the big clincher on the crown. While Jeff is at Detroit tonight for that finale, others find Scio playing here against the Oregon School for the Deaf, Sublimity at Amity and St Paul at Gates. Chemawa Scored Upset Mill City was scheduled to play at Chemawa tonight, but that game was Instead played on Sat urday niphl. And it was a disas ter for Coach Burt Burroughs' second place Timberwolves, for they blew it to the onrushint In dians of Coach Ed Bartlett, 55-43. In view of current standings, that loss cut the Mill City outfit out of a share of the title. Mill City has a makeup game with De troit, but if Jeff wins tonight the result of the makeup will be im material. Sublimity has third place nailed down, but Scio, Detroit Chemawa and Amity are in the thick of things for the fourth and fifth place finishes.

Santee Case DrawsWarnins (Continued from preceding page) will jeopardize the amateur stand ing of all athletes participating in the meets and will render your or ganization forever ineligible for further AAU sanction." Ferris explained the phrase tin der any conditions," by saying "that's in case some one should obtain an injunction" against the AAU ban. He did not mention Grimes or Santee by name. Given as Waraiag He added that the official an nouncement had been sent to the meet directors so "no one can say they didn't know of the suspen sion." Santee's attorney, Charles P, Grimes earlier said, "I plan to draw up papers in the next couple of days and will file for an injunc tion in either the State Supreme Court (of New York) or a federal court I haven't decided which. I have advised Santee to stay in training. I don't expect a long, drawnout procedure, and I want him to be ready to run." Santee, whose 4:00.5 mile is the fastest ever run by an American, was barred from future track meets and also from Olympic com' petition. Expenses Draw Charge He was accused of taking some $1,500 over allowable expenses in a aeries of track meets last sum mer. Santee didn't enter a defense of inese charges in an appearance Ith! AAU w" rtin !lho"t authority because he previously had been cleared by the Missouri Valley Assn. of the AAU, his home district.

He had 21 doubles. 7 triples and 18 home runs, along with SI runs batted in In the event that he doesn't mate the grade with Johnstown, he may again be assigned here, according to Luby.

All tilts start at eight o'clock, following prelim clashes by the Bee squads. Twe Big Upsets Friday was a memorable day in the loop chase, for it provided two smashing upsets. Gordy Kunke's Dragons spilled the 'Mo lalla Indians 50-51, thus adminis tering only the second loss of the entire season to Al Groves' Tribe and elevating the Dragons' hopes for another WVL title. Also, the lowly Estacada Rangers' mired in last place in the stand ings, rose up to knock over the Sandy Pioneers 52-50. practically eliminating the Pioneers from the championship picture. Estacada then turned around Saturday night and beat Central in their makeup game. Dallas and Sandy also have a makeup game to play on Febru ary 28, and from the looks of the standings, it could mean the cham pionship for the Dragons.

America's fastest miler, by the Executive Committee of the AAU is a "slap In the face of the Missouri Valley portion of the na tional organization." That s the opinion of Julius Koe- nigsdorf, Kansas City insurance agent and long-time chairman of the Missouri Valley AAU registra tion committee. "Not only did the Executive Committee slap us, but it violated AAU by-laws in the process," Koe nigsdorf declared. Santee, former University of Kansas star and now a Marine lieutenant at Quantico, Va , was suspended for life from AAU sanc tioned meets by the AAU's Execu tive Committee in New York City Sunday, L The action grew out of charges that Santee had accepted "exces sive" expense allowances for three meets in California last spring.

HER TO THE FAMILY PH5lSH prise announcement that SMU had changed its mind and was pre pared to support Tech's admission to the conference. In past years the votes of SMU, Rice and Arkansas have been enough to keep the Lubbock, Tex., school from joining the seven member league. Tech has been backed by Texas, Texas Christian, Baylor and Texas, A&M. ,. Rice Against Tech After the SMU announcement Rice said it still felt no need for Tech in the conference. "I think our position on expan sion of the conference is pretty well known," said Arkansas Ath letic Director John Barnhill. "I can't say now whether we'll change our position before the next meeting." , "I believe this is the break through." said Dr. M E. Sadler, president of TCU. "I believe this means that Tech will be voted in at the next conference meeting." Tech Ceack Optimistic Texas Tech Coach DeWitt Weav er said he could foresee no dif ficulty now in obtaining the re quired five votes for admission. The meeting is set May 11-12 at Fayetteville, Ark. Weaver said that if Texas Tech is voted into the conference it prob ably would take four or five years years before the conference s sports schedules could be worked out to include Texas Tech on a full standing. ride Table TIDES rOI TAFT, OREGON (Compiled by U. 8.

He's sjnlte a "reliable source" to say the least. f Such "scoops" these dayi are almost a thinj of the past. Time was when a writer uncovered something he could print it in hii paper first, under his name, and could feel rather proudly of himself. But nowadays we're all pledged, by modern newspaper law, to call the press bureaus just as soon at we learn of something worth printing in other than our own areas. If anyone printa a "scoop"' now, without pass ing it on to the press bureau, he catches hallelujah from all side.

J The Spokane Flyers won the Western International Hockey League championship Saturday1 be fore 8.094 customers in the new Memorial Coliseum. Officially, there are seats for only S.700. It brought home attendance dur ing the worst winter in years to 84.000 for 24 games. With at least three more to go, it could exceed 100,000. Baseball Falls Off Compared with hockey, it's been tough sledding for more traditional sports. Professional baseball, ad mittedly hurt by a losing team and a poor park, drew only 46,000 for some 60 games last summer. In 1947 it set a Class B record of 287.000. Gonzaga University is about to give up on Coliseum basketball and go back to the campus. Two intersectional games this season drew only 800 and 1,000. Selling Canadian hockey in an American city of 180,000 wasn't easy. There are no "sandlot," high school or college teams to develop fans. The Flyers, playing in a cold old arena that "could seat only 2.- 200, lost money every year, start ing with a 837.000 deficit in 1946. New Coliseum Helps It got so bad in 1953 that 25 of the 32 stockholders quit. The seven who were left decided to hang tough, hoping the game would catch on and that the new 24 mil lion dollar Coliseum would bring them in. It was completed in 1954 and it did. Converted fans have followed the team on road trips in chartered buses and a bunch chipped in with more than 8700 in gifts for a vet eran wingman on "Gino Rozzini Night." AH 13 Spokane players are Ca nadians, although a few are tak ing out U.S. citizenship papers. They earn from $450 to 8600 a month for a 19-week, 50-game schedule.
