Civil rights, the Vietnam war, and the Johnson admin-
istration's domestic policies played an important role in
mayoral and gubernatorial elections last night across the
nation.
Despite an unexpected Democratic victor in Gary, Ind.,
Republicans registered significant gains in other contests.
As the national guard and police from three neighboring
states looked on, Richard G.Hatcher, a Negro Democratic
councilman, last night slipped past his Republican opponent,
Joseph Radigan, to win the mayoralty of Gary, Ind.
With all precincts reporting, Hatcher carried 41,042 votes
to Radigan's 37,186.
Concession
Radiganconceded the race shortly after midnight last
night after one of the nation's most hotly contested elections.
Last week Hatcher asked the Indiana courts to postpone
the election because he feared "illegal election procedures."
The courts denied postpone--

Restraining Order
The restraining order was first
issued after a demonstration Oct.
18 protesting the presence of a
recruiter for the Dow Chentical Co.
on campus. More than sixty per-
sons were injured at that time
W when police were forced to use
night sticks and tear gas to dis-
perse the demonstrators.
The decision by Doyle to extend
the restraining order represents
a victory for the student plaintiffs
in the case. They had contended
that a university regulation pro-
hibiting demonstrations not car-
ried out through "recognized legal
means of protest" was so vague
and general that it could conceiva-
bly infringe upon their First
Antendntent rights.

Faxon Asks
Ruling on
XStateBoard
By The Associated Press
Rep.. Jack Faxon (D-Detroit)
asked state Atty. Gen. Frank Kel-
ley yesterday to rule on a series
of questions which could place
seven of the eight State Board of
Education members in conflict of
interest.
Two of the points Faxon asked
the Attorney General to rule on
are:
"-if persons employed by state
institutions of higher learningtay
sinultaneously serve as members
of the State Board of Education
in light of the constitutional power
of the Board to plan and coordi-
tate all public higher education
iand advise the the legislature as to
financial requirements.
-"If a person employed as a
legal counsel for sectarian insti-
tutions may serve on the State
Board of Education which has the
authority to assist such schools
and colleges under its rule-ntak-
ing powers."
Asked if he had any particular
Board members in ntind, Faxon
declined comntent.
However. Thontas J. Brennan
is an attorney whose clients in-
clude the Roman Catholic Arch--
diocese of Detroit.
