REP. DRAWS VARIETY OF BACKERS

Anderson supporters unite in Ill.

By AMY SALTZMAN
Special to the iaily
CHICAGO-Grace Gitstad and
George Golubouskis are not like-
minded in their political thinking.
Gitstad is an elderly Chicago housewife
who says she has been a Republican all

candidate in today's primary,
considers himself a liberal, and says he
would ordinarily never vote for a
Republican presidential candidate.
But both hope that John Anderson of
Rockford, Ill. will be the next president
of the United States.
GITSTAD AND Golubouskis reflect
the unique mix of followers that has
swarmed to Anderson's fledgling
campaign for the presidency over the
past two weeks. They represent what
Anderson calls a "new coalition" of
socially liberal but economically
conservative people.
It is this new combination of voters
that Anderson is counting on to hand
him a victory in today's Republican
primary.
The latest Chicago Tribune poll
shows Reagan slightly ahead of
Anderson, 36 to 34 per cent, with former
CIA director George Bush trailing far
behind with only 12 per cent. At the end
of last week a Tribune poll showed
Anderson with a small lead over
Reagan.
Despite recent jabs from the right
and the left, Anderson has continued his
straight-talking, issue-oriented
campaign, refusing to categorize
himself along neat, politically

expedient lines. "I think words like
conservative, moderate, and liberal
have largely outlived their usefulness.
They are almost totally irrelevant in
describing a president's stand on the
issues," Anderson said during a
campaign stop in Rockford.
"LIBERALS" AND "conservatives"
like Gitstad and Golubouskis use words
like "consistent," "truthful,"
"straightforward,"' and
"compassionate" to describe
Anderson.
Neither Gitstad nor Golubouskis
agree with Anderson on all the issues.
Gitstad doesn't like his pro-choice stand
on abortion. Golobouskis disagrees with
his moderate position on nuclear
power. But both say that the fact that
they know exactly where he stands on
all the issues places him high abokve
the other candidates.
. "I don't see eye to eye with him on
everything. But he's consistent. With
the other candidates you can't even add
up the plusses and the minuses because
you don't know what they are,"
Golubouskis said.
But as "the Anderson difference" has
become a serious phenomenon in the
Republican presidential sweepstakes,
the Illinois congressman has suddenly
found himself the target of political

forces on the right and on the left.
From the right, Anderson was hit by
his three Republican challengers who
in a debate here last week accused him
of not being a genuine Republican.
ANDERSON RESPONDED by
singling out Rep. Philip Crane (R-Ill.)
for "political immaturity" in
questioning his GOP loyalty. "I feel
very comfortable with the Republican
party. That's where I belong, and that's
where I'm going to stay," Anderson
said.
From the left, the Independent Voters
of Illinois-Independent Precinct
Organization (IVI-IPO), is urging
Anderson supporters not to abandon the
Democratic primary and important
local races. Instead, the group is
suggesting that independents and
liberal Democrats who want to vote for
Anderson take a Democratic ballot and
write in Anderson's name.
A local ad sponsored by the
organization states: "Voting for John
Anderson might make you -feel good,
but by sacrificing our local good guys,
you'll be hurting the people of Illinois
and the future of Chicago."
The Anderson camp has responded to
this jolt from the left with something in
between irritation and disgust.

With momentum shrinking and dim prospects
in Ill., primary, Bush starts to play rough

By MICHAEL ARKUSH
A Daily News Analysis
CHICAGO -- In the beginning,
George Bush created organization and
saw that it was good.
After organization, he created
momentum out of the cornfields of
*wa, and saw that it too was good.
Suddenly, the Reagan flood hit New
Hampshire, drowning the organization,

the momentum, the stardom,
everything that George Bush had
created.
NOW BUSH is struggling for political
survival. Once considered a possible
winner here in Illinois, he seems
doomed for a distant third in today's
Republican primary behind Reagan
and home state representative John
Anderson.

The old strategy has been thrown out,
especially since his poor showings in
the southern primaries last week. The
cornerstone of the new game plan is
two-fold: Show voters he's to the left of
Reagan and to the right of Anderson,
and dispel the notion that he's a media-
built contender lacking a consistent
ideological base.
To accomplish the first aim, the for-
mer CIA chief hasyrecently shifted from
the nice-guy approach, and is now pun-
ching hard. No longer is it politically
profitable to obey the Eleventh Com-
mandment - Thou shalt not criticize a
fellow Republican.
IN A FOREIGN policy address
Friday, he lashed out at a -Reagan
proposal which would set a deadline for
the release of the 50 U.S. hostages in
Iran.
"I would hope the governor has taken
into consideration the fact that we are
dealing in Iran with volatile, irrational
forces. This is to say that whatever the
fact that we are dealing with, the
Reagan secret plan, it is possible - in-
deed probable - that the zealots run-
ning the show in Tehran would ignore
the deadline - and then what?" Bush
said.
Actually, the barrage against Reagan
isn't that new. What is new is the attack
against Anderson. Now that Gerald
Ford has decided to stay out of the fray,
only the Illinois representative stands
in the way of a Reagan/Bush showdown
for the nomination. Only with that mat-
ch-up, Bush insiders admit, can he hope
to dethrone Reagan. Since the begin-
ning, Bush said that it's him against
Reagan and no one else has a chance.
AN ANDERSON win here- coupled
with another poor' Bush showing could
convince anti-Reagan Republicans that
only Anderson can knock off the former
California governor. Further substan-
tiating Bush's fear is a Chicago Tribune
poll which came out yesterday that
shows Bush third, far behind the two
front-runners. In February, 41 per cent

A few students were asked why they
were celebrating St. Patrick's Day.
"I'm drinking because St. Patrick is the
patron saint of engineers," Joe Filio
said.
Even those celebrants who woke up

reminder of yesterday's festivities:

of the moderates favored Bush and only
17 per cent backed Anderson. Yester-
day's poll shows Anderson with a 47 to
12 per cent lead over Bush among the
moderates.,
Thus, Bush has thrown his toughest
ammunition against Anderson.
"This country must have
registration. A 50-cent gasoline tax
would paralyze the elderly, and how
can we cut defense spendingnow,
especially after Afghanistan? These
are things John Anderson just cannot
understand," Bush said.
During a recent press conference, the
strain of the campaign and his plunge in
the polls seemed to be affecting Bush. A
reporter asked him for his response to
an Anderson allegation that, Bush would
support almost unlimited power for the
FBI, Bush's face suddenly reddened, he
pointed his finger, and grew visibly per-
turbed.
"Imagine the nerve of that guy. Did
he really say that?" Bush shouted. "It's
outrageous."

... takes new hard line

Another new twist to the Bush
playbook has been the candidate's sud-
den refusal , to discuss campaign
strategy, quite a turnaround for a man
who in January could only talk about
his momentum and his organization.
Gone is the Bush as a high school foot-
ball coach, constantly giving pep rallies
to his supporters. In return, there's a
more serious, almost desperate Bush,
stressing the issues.
"I will not respond to questions about
tactics. I will only talk about the
issues," he said.
Whether this switch will allow him to
stay securely in the presidential sweep-
stakes is uncertain, but his image as a
freshly prominent figure is definitely a
thing of the past.
