Brownie Leach, Jr., Louisvilles Most Disappointed Resident CHURCHILL DOWNS, Louisville, Ky., May 7. — Brownie Leach, Jr., ten-year-old son of the Derby press relations director, who was looking forward to seeing his first Derby this afternoon as office boy for his father, was perhaps Louisvilles most disappointed resident today. A severe case of poison ivy which developed overnight forced him to remain in bed at his home. The youth has regularly accompanied his father to Churchill Downs for several years, and for his age has a keen knowledge of all departments of racing. He did get to watch the Kentucky Oaks yesterday.
