E;j ERIC MORGENTHALER and MARK RIMMER
TOPEKA-Sen. James B. Pearson, 46, the Republican incumbent from Prairie Village, last night defeated former Congressman J. Floyd Breeding, 65, his Democratic challenger.
At 2 a.m. Pearson held a 229,368 to 201,464 vote edge with 2,550 of 2,884 precincts reporting.
During the evening before his victory was assured, Pearson made several visits to his campaign headquarters on the fourth floor of the Jayhawk Hotel in Topeka. Chatting with friends and his wife, Martha, while glancing at the national election results on television, he interrupted himself only to listen to the Kansas results.
Although Pearson's win was overshadowed by the defeat of Gov. Avery, the room held a noticeable quiet air of victory. The Senator seemed poised and confident.
"THIS HAS BEEN an exciting outcome for the Republican party," Pearson said. "I'm looking forward to getting back to the Senate. All in all, we have elected a competent group, and we have eight or ten of the youngest Senators."
He added that the election indicates the people disapprove of current administration policies, and that he is proud of his party.
"As a result of the election, the Republican party can be a catalyst toward putting forward alternatives to the Great Society," he said.
Pearson indicated his disappointment at the defeat of Gov. Avery with a grim concern for the attitudes of the people of Kansas.
"WILLIAM AVERY has been a marvelous and good governor, and is concerned with keeping pace with the nation," he said. "By electing Docking, the people have indicated that they want to stand pat rather than move forward. I think it shows the people
Avery said last week in Lawrence that he did not really care who was elected governor as long as the new governor kept up to date. However, he hinted that he felt Docking was not the man to do this.
of Kansas are in for a period of stalemate."
Commenting on his reactions to the election results in the South, Pearson again indicated his pride in the Republicans.
Balloons and crepe paper hung about the hotel room, and the typical jovial election atmosphere dominated. The feeling in the room was one of victory.

Winn toasts victory; Rainey's spirits low
KANSAS CITY—The hundred-plus supporters jammed into a two-room motel room to drink to the health of Larry Winn—and to his victory. A political newcomer, he had just won his first term to the House of Representatives.
On the other side of the Overland Park motel, Winn's opponent, Marvin Rainey sat silently listening to low Mantovani music and the equally low Rainey counts.
Shriver has served two terms as a state representative and two four-year terms in the Kansas Senate.
A former school teacher, Shriver is a graduate of Wichita State University, the University of Southern California and Washburn Law School.
KANSAS CITY — (UPI) — Rep. Garner E. Shriver won re-election to Congress in last night's general election over Paul Gerling of Wichita.
Shriver, 50, previously defeated Robert J. "Al" Norschl of Kingman in the Republican primary by more than 10 to 1
"I'm not very optimistic," Rainey told his wife. "Let's go over to the Democratic headquarter."
Before the total vote was counted and just after the networks had credited Winn with the post, Winn attributed his victory to his attacks on the national issues of Viet Nam and inflation.
Shriver wins over Gerling for Congress
He polled a large majority in his home county to defeat Rainey, the former Overland Park Democratic mayor.
Earlier he defeated six other Republicans in a hotly contested primary battle.
Mize regains House chair; beats Wiles
KANSAS CITY — (UPI)— Rep. Chester Mize, a Republican from Atchison, last night won a second term in the U.S. House with a victory over the 1964 Democratic gubernatorial candidate.

A hardware executive, Mize, 49, attended school at Atchison and later studied business administration at KU.
Rep. Joe Skubitz (R-Kansas) was last night elected to his second term in Congress. He easily defeated his opponent Delno Bass, a union official from Parsons.
Dole, 43, won his fourth term in congress over the Democratic wife of former Lt. Gov. Joseph Henkle.
KANSAS CITY — (UPI) — Republican representative Bob Dole, won easily last night over Mrs. Bernice Henkle, Great Bend, to retain his state congressional seat.

Skubitz, former administrative assistant to the late Sen. Andrew Sheppel, led only slightly in early returns, but his margin increased steadily throughout the evening.
Dole attended KU and received his law degree from Washburn.

Did you like beer the first time you tasted it?
A lot of people say no. They say beer is one of those good things you cultivate a taste for ...like olives, or scotch, or kumquats.
Maybe. But we think it makes a difference which brand of beer we're talking about.
We think Budweiser is an exception to this "you've gotta get used to it" rule. It's so smooth. (You see, no other beer is Beechwood Aged; it's a costly way to brew beer, and it takes more time. But it works.)
So whether you're one of the few who has never tried beer, or a beer drinker who suddenly feels the urge to find out why so many people enjoy Budweiser, we think you'll like it.
From the very first taste.
