HEAD PLAY REMAINS CHOICE Kearneys Odds 3 to 1 Against Him for American Derby — Mr. Khayyam Now 5 to 1. Head Play, though beaten in the Wood Memorial Stakes at Jamaica, still is highly respected by Tom Kearney of St. Louis for the American Derby at Washington Park I June 3 and is held in Kearneys future book at 3 to 1, while 5 to 1 is offered against Mr. Khayyam, winner of the Wood Memorial, his price dropping from 8 to 1. Ladysman is second choice at 4 to 1, and Charley O. and Sarada are 8 to 1.
