ARLINGTON PARK NOTES J "The next stop for Hollyrood is the Arlington Classic," declared Hal Price Headley before shipping back the winner of the Detroit and Chicago Derbys to Detroit after winning the latter prize at Hawthorne Saturday. Headley declared that his double Derby winner would have been left at Arlington Park only that he did not have men nor equipment wi-h him to handle the colt. Therefore he shipped Hollyrood back to Detroit, where the main division of the stable is now racing and this colt will be included in the shipment of the stable to Arlington Park later this week. Sparta, which finished second in the Detroit Derby and made the pace for her sta-blemate, Hollyrood, in the Hawthorne race last Saturday, was shipped back to Head-leys farm in Kentucky for a well-earned vacation. Frank Hackett, manager of Mrs. John Hertz racing stable, arrived by motor from New York Sunday. The Hertz horses arrived several days ago, in charge of ,traine.r Lon Johnson, but Hackett was delayed by motor trouble en route. Six or seven horses of the Araho Stable, owned by Mrs. Walter OHara, will be shipped from Narragansett Park to Arlington Park within a few days, reported racing secretary Charles J. McLennan upon his arrival from Boston Sunday. Included in the Araho western division will be Howard and New Deal, which have been nominated for Arlingtons stakes for older horses. Clyde Van Dusen got in from Latonia with twenty-two horses, owned by Dixiana, including two-year-olds and older horses which have been liberally nominated for the Arlington Park stakes. Mutuels director Mort Shaw will allot thirty wickets for selling of. the "Daily Double" combination tickets at Arlington Park. Twenty will be in the main division and ten in the clubhouse. The "Daily Double" units this year will be the first and second races, and the selling wickets will be closed five minutes before post time for the first race. Pictures for track identification cards, required of all stable employes, will be taken between the hours of 8 a. m. and 2 p. m. by track photographer Russell Kimble in the west wing of the administration building at Arlington Park. L. R. "Irish" Boyle, custodian of the Arlington Park jockeys room, arrived from Louisville Monday. He has taken over the new riders quarters under the main grandstand, which were built this year to replace the old room in the administration building on the far side of the paddock.
