Dwyer won all the major Eastern indoor miles in 1953 as a Villanova senior but was unable to beat Sanger of Kansas or Denmark the Gunnar Nielsen this year until Saturday night's Baxter mile. Before that Madison Square garden race, Dwyer said, "I can beat them both."
'I Can Lick Wes, Dwyer Boasts
New York (U.P.)-Fred Dwyer, the little 137-pounder who backed a boast with the fastest race of his career, said today he's ready to take charge of the remaining 1955 indoor miles and doesn't expect any trouble from Wes Santee because "he's burnt out."
He did. And it was one of the most humiliating defeats ever suffered by the red-haired Dane, holder of the world indoor mile mark of 4:03.6, and the cocky Santee, fastest miler in U.S. track history.
Dwyer, who used his head as well as his legs, coasted home almost half a lap ahead of Nielsen. The 4:06.2 clocking was a new meet mark for the feature of the New York Athletic club games and Dwyer's fastest race. Santee was third, with Lowell Zellers of Indiana fourth and Dick Ollen of Northeastern fifth.
