naming of a successor to DEM
ocratic Senator Pat McCarran,

eran lawmakers family planned
burial rites for Saturday.

Keith Lee challenged Republican
Gov Charles Russell over whether
he has the right to appoint a
successor to fill the remaining
two years of Senator McCarran's
fourth term in the Senate.
The Senator suddenly COL
lapsed and died Tuesday night
minutes after he made a strong
plea before a Hawthorne Demo-
cratic rally for unity in the State
Democratic Party.
An ambulance carried the Sem
ator's body back to his home
town of Reno yesterday.
Ruling Requested.
Mr.. Lee, insisting that Nevada
law clearly provides that an
election be held in November.
called his State Central Commit
tee to meet Friday and name
candidate.
Mr.. Russell, meanwhile. asked
Nevada's attorney general for
ruling. The Governors Office
said the law appeared to be
hazy and filled with Supreme
Court decisions from past cases."
Legal advisers to the Governor
said privately. however. there
was no legal provision for elect
ing some one to fill Senator Nc
Carran's unexpired term. They
said the Governors appointee
would hold Office until jan
uary. 1857.
Mentioned as possible Russell
appointees were Ed Converse of
Las Vegas, owner of Bonanza

directors to plan Catholic burial

Senator McCarran cut a power
full and often singular figure for

A delegation of Representa-
tives and Sena tors, as yet un-
