Willis Falls Short in Bid to Become South's First Negro Mayor
Memphis candidate A. W. Willis, Tennessee's first Negro state legislator in more than 50 years, fails to win the mayoral race in Memphis. Incumbent William Ingram and former Mayor Henry Loeb reach the runoff. Loeb leads, Ingram second, Sheriff William Morris third, Willis fourth with 15,575 votes as he concedes. Willis cites long racial conditioning while Ingram benefits from a swing of the Negro vote toward Loeb. Ingram had previously served as city judge and as mayor since 1963. Loeb was mayor before resigning late in his term.
