William Blakley's bid for six years in the United States Senate, sending up instead John Goodwin Tower, 35, a government profes- sor at Midwestern University in Wichita Falls. The victory was especially delectable to the Republican Party because the seat Tower took was the one which had belong- ed to Lyndon Johnson. Tower became the Larry Lee first Republican senator from Texas since Reconstruction and the only Republican senator elected by popular vote from any of the states which made up the Confed- eracy.
