Olympia to Skip Belmont; Will Go in Kent Instead BELMONT PARK, Elmont, L. I., N. Y., May 31. — Trainer Ivan Parke stated today that Fred W. Hoopers Olympia would not fulfill his engagement in the Belmont Stakes, the mile and one-half three-year-old classic. The colt will be shipped to Delaware Park to fulfill his engagement in the Kent Stakes at that track. Ocean Drive will remain here to start in the Peter Pan on Saturday instead of going to Suffolk Downs for his Yankee Handicap engagement. Parke plans to ship the Fred W. Hooper horses to Arlington Park for that and the Washington Park meetings. The shipment is to be made on Monday, June 13.
