Caption: (NY32-July 22) WINS DESPITE THREATS TO HIS LIFE--Kip Keino of Kenya is carried by admirers after winning the 1,500 meter race in the Commonwealth Games at Edinburgh, Scotland, Wednesday, despite threats to his life. Before the race an annonymous telephone call and two unsigned letters were received at the athlete's village in Edinburgh. They said Keino, 30-year-old Olympic Gold medalist, would be killed if he competed. Keino won in 3:36.6. (AP Wirephoto via cable from Edinburgh) (see AP sports wire story) (pr41222pool)1970.
