FIRST STABLE AT ARLINGTON The stable of Otto W. Lehmann, president of the American National Jockey Club, has the distinction of being the first racing establishment to be quartered this year at Arlington Park. The stable arrived Monday morning from Churchill Downs, where it had been campaigned in charge of William Pinch, an English trainer, who recently arrived in this country. The stable was headed by the four-year-old Reigh Olga and in addition included seven highly regarded juveniles, all of which are eligible to the Arlington Park stakes for two-year-olds. Frederic Crafton, who has been engaged as auditor of the horsemens and jockeys accounts at Arlington Park, and who will have charge of alloting the stabling room at that track, entered upon his duties yesterday morning. Mr. Crafton has had wide experience in this work, and was employed in a like capacity at the recent Aurora meeting. The demand for stabling room at Arlington Park this season is very heavy, and exceeds the number of available stalls.
