WHAS radio will air the Face of the day daily from the Downs, with WHAS Sportscaster Ca-wood Ledford describing the running and Brownie Leach, public-relations director of the track, providing the color during the entira spring meeting. Channel 11 also will televise the Louisville Handicap on May 11 and the Bashford Manor Stakes on May 18; and still later in the season, C.B.S. will carry the Preakness on May 18 and the Belmont Stakes on June 15.

Channel 3 on Thursday night will televise an hour of the Derby Festival Parade as it passes the station at Preston and Broadway (9 to 10 p.m.). THE EYES of the sports world will be trained on Louisville this week for the Kentucky Derby and because of that event, the CB S. eye also is beamed on Churchill Downs. The race will be televised nationally and on Channel 11, from 4:15 to 4:45 p.m. Saturday.

The 16-hour show will be at Memorial Auditorium starting at 10 p.m. May 18 and running continuously until 2 p.m. May 19.

Pinky, whose N.B.C.-TV series for children ended after Pinky suffered a severe illness a year ago, was one of the most popular shows on the daytime air with the younger set. He is now working on a filmed series yet to be released, "Perils of Pinky." In Dickering Stage William G. McBride of the Jaycees and WAVE manager George Patterson are dickering with other stars, a well-known boy singer, a girl singer and another performer. One of the stars of last year's "Bids for Kids," Johnny Desmond, was such a terrific personality on the show that there have been numerous requests, McBride says, for his return. Whether he is available is still unknown.

The first "Bids" show last year cleared $73,000 for the hospital. The increasing rate of admissions, the increasing number of patients from outside Louisville IRA.

No Money Down $1.00 Weekly 11 9 11 I I II I I 111 IVJM I I P. 1 I Will Fight Be Televised? WHEN ASKED if the Derby Eve fight from the Fairgrounds here would be telecast Friday night, George Patterson, program director of WAVE, said, "I do not know." The series of which this fight is a feature usually is seen on WAVE-TV Fridays at 9 p.m. WAVE-TV program log' lists the program for 9 on Friday "to be announced." William King, Louisville promoter, declined to be quoted. The usual reason for blacking out a fight in the area where it occurs is to protect the gate receipts, promoters feeling receipt's will suffer if the fight is telecast. It also is not unusual for promoters to maintain they do not know whether there will be a telecast until they see how the advance seat sale goes.

It is usual to black out championship fights on TV in the area where they are held. This Friday's is not a championship fight, and it is distinctly not the usual policy to black out non-championship battles. While most New York executives of Maxon, the advertising agency which handles the account, were unavailable for comment, those who were said there had been no provision, "so far as we know," for blacking out the fight in Louisville. Thus it appears, despite the "to be announced" line in today's WAVE-TV schedule, that the fight will be seen in Louisville Friday night. If it is not, it will represent a big change in policy.

When the same two boys fought in Miami some time ago the fight was telecast in Miami. Dill Ladd Judith Waller, Veteran of Radio, Slated To Retire Special to The Courier-Journal CHICAGO, April 27.
