LOUISVILLE, Ky-Anita Pea body, a stablemate of Reign Count in the Hertz barns, possibly would rank as an equal favorite for Derby honors were it not for her sex. On actual performance the brown lilly has proven herself worthy of recognition, but there exists traditional prejudice against any lilly in the Kentucky event. For this reason and be- cause Reign Count has responded so well in training, the daughter of Luke McLuke and DauphiHe may not face the barrier Derby Day at the Downs, but should any mishap mar Reign Counts chances the trim little lilly has been trained faithfully to replace him.
 Anita Peabody as two-year- old almost doubled the earnings of Reign Count, annexing S111,905. She started seven times and won six of her races. In the remain ing start she finished third. Her principal victories were in the Debutante Stakes, the Belmont Futurity, the Joliet Stakes and the Tomboy Handicap.
 Regret is the only lilly ever to win the Derby.

Housser, who has lived in the
south thruout the time he has been
in this country, has been an ardent
champion of racial equality for the
Negroes. This, together with his
known revolutionary tendencies
