Wes Santee.
"1 plan to draw up papers in
the next couple of days and will
file for an injunction in either the
State Supreme Court or a federal
court---I haven't decided which,"
Grimes said.
Amateur Athletic Union to
night advised track meet direc

AAU sanction "forever" if they
permit Wes Santee to compete,
even if the premier American'
miler succeeds in obtaining a
court injunction against his life
time ban as an amateur.

said any athlete participating
in any meet in which Santee
was allowed to compete would
"jeopardise" his amateur stand
