I Mediator Hopeful After Meeting With Both Sides J. Samuel Perlman, publisher of Daily Racing Form, who is in Chicago and has been attempting to resolve the differences between Arlington Park management and the Horsemens Benevolent and Protective Association, yesterday issued the following statement: "Having the welfare of racing at heart and respecting the interests of both horsemen and management alike, I have met with representatives of both sides in an effort to resolve their differences. I find these differences are only misunderstandings that needed clarification. I am very hopeful the issue will be resolved today."
