Rep W J Murphy Republican leader said there is a good possibility reapportionment will fail. The bill would provide separate ballot boxes for legislative contests and ballot counting machinery. If lawmakers fail to redraw by June 30 Gov Otto Kerner may appoint a commission. If that commission fails all 177 representatives would run statewide with state senators up for re election. Illinois must redraw districts based on the 1960 census.
