I have a pretty thorough knowledge of HS track from that era Lananna was not a 4:09 miler in HS.
I didn't think so. Otherwise he would have been one of the top milers in the nation and a household name among track nuts back then, as was Kansan, Randy Smith who did run a 409/857 double at the Kansas Relays in '71.
