Davis, ru ral-bred hillbilly songster who rose to governor in 1944. Morrison, 47, is a polished, in irllitpnt nnlitirian. He has cam paigned feverishly to be the state's first Catholic governor in 90 years, drawing strength from his sprawl ing metropolis and Southern Lou isiana's Cajun bayou lands where he stumns in French. Davis. 53. annears deceptively reserved, politically shrewd. He has the backing of the leading segregationist candidate, most of the stale's newspapers, and Prot pel ant North Louisiana. Political exocrts say the Demo cratic second primary showdown figures to be a close one. In the Dec. 5 first primary, a record turnout of 842,609, Long's ticket was soundly trounced. Since then, the 64-year old governor has faded from the picture. Morrison held a 65,000 vote lean Locked Up Pair Better Time DETROIT (AP)-Redford Town ship bartender Presley Williamson and his customer James Givine have been in a beer cooler togeth er an hour and 40 minutes, all told.

But Davis pulled a tactical coup at the outset of tho runoff cam paign, quickly adopting a strong segregation plank. Both candidates had soft ped aled the segregation issue in the first primary. But the issue sud denly loomed large when State Sen. William M. Rainach, leader of the staunch segregationists, fin ished a surprising third with 143, 000 votes. Morrison and Davis cagily bar gained for his endorsement. Davis offered to sponsor a state sover eignty commission with Rainach as head. Morrison offered Rain- ach's campaign manager, nep. John Garrett, the important post of House speaker. Morrison blunted the setback by picking up the support of the fourth and fifth candidates State Comptroller William Dodd and for mer Gov. James A. Noe, Long's running mate. The campaign has grown in the crucial last weeks into a bitter struggle. Davis accused Morrison of hav ing the support of the National Assn. for the Advancement of Col ored People and Teamsters Presi dent James R. Hoffa. Morrison charged Davis once ran an inte grated night club in California and wrote a book of off-color songs in tne 1930s. Davis said Morrison Dulled New Orleans downhill among Southern ciues, and Morrison complained JJavis won't meet him n ODen de- bate. The winner will meet Renuhli. can nominee Francis C. Grevem- berg and States Rights nomine Kent H. Courtney in the April 19 general election. But that's count ed only as a formality, as the Democratic primary victory if tantamount to election. N. J.
