Lugar, head of the largest Republican-administered city in the country, was one of the few bright spots in the Indiana GOP picture in Tuesday municipal elections. Democrats won 20 of the mayoral races in the state's top 25 cities.

It compared with a 16-9 GOP advantage going into the election. In Gary, Democratic Mayor Richard G. Hatcher apparently won an easy victory over Republican Theodore D. Ner-ing Jr. With 73 per cent of the precincts reporting; Hatcher had a lead of 20,800 votes.

Less Determined Hatcher, the state's only black mayor, bucked the Democratic county machine to win the nomination and election in 1967.
