Page 10-Saturday, April 19, 1980-The Michigan Daily Anderson'leaning toward' independent candidacy Teddy's niece in Az to stump for uncle From United Press International While most of the candidates were. oking toward Pennsylvania-which ould hold the last hurrah of the 1980 rimaries Tuesday-John Anderson 'as in Washington plotting an indepen- ent run for the White House. Anderson, virtually out of the GOP ace and not even on the Pennsylvania allot, was on the verge of announcing e will run as an independent, liberal lternative to Carter and Reagan. "I AM leaning strongly towards an idependent candidacy, but I have not et made a final decision," said Ander- n. He was expected to make a formal nnouncement next week-in time to hake the deadline to get on the ballot in ew Jersey. Former national field director for Anderson's Republican campaign, Jane Fowler, has left to begin a petition drive to get Anderson on the ballot in Massachusetts. Massachusetts is significant because it is one of two states with approaching deadlines to get on the ballot and one he must have if he has any hopes of win- ning the presidency. Anderson's decision was boosted by a New York Times-CBS poll that showed fully half the voters were unhappy about being faced with a choice bet- ween Carter and Reagan in November. Republican National Chairman Bill Brock pleaded with Anderson not to make a run that "obviously will have an enormously negative impact on Republican candidates at all levels." By TOM MIRGA National presidential politics .came to Ann Arbor yesterday in the person of Kathleen Kennedy Townsend, who appeared here in an attempt to garner funds for her uncle Sen. Edward Kennedy's (D-Mass.) nearly barren local war chest. Townsend, daughter of late Sen. Robert Kennedy (D-N.Y.), made stops here at an early morning fund-raising breakfast and an afternoon coffee hour. TOWNSEND answered questions about her uncle's posiitons on various domestic and foreign affairs and assessed his chances in the upcoming presidential primaries. We're ahead in the polls in Pennsylvania and won a recent straw vote in California," Townsend beamed at a press conference at the lavish home of Second Congressional District Kennedy for President Committee co- chairman George Wahl Sallade. "We expect to win big in the large industrial states," she continued. TOWNSEND SAID a recent Kennedy victory in Arizona over President Carter gave her uncle's campaign a needed shot in the arm. "We carried the Mexican-American vote there with the help of Cesar Chavez and the United Farm Workers," she said, "but. additionally, we proved we could carry voters from both liberal and conservative factions of the party." Townsend, a 28-year-old lawyer from New Haven, Conn., devoted most of her comments to attacks on the politics of her uncle's competitor for the Democratic nomination. "I think Carter has devoted too much of his time trying to become president and not to the job of being president," she said. "I've talked to a lot of people,a nd they say they are dissatisfied with the things he has done as president, or hasn't done, I should say. "CARTER SUPPORTERS say the government cannot solve the problems of inflation and high unemployment rates," Townsend continued. "I say that attitude stands directly against everything the Democratic party has. ever stood for." Townsend also had some harsh comments fog, "the new darling of the nation's campuses," Rep. John Anderson (R-Ill.). "Lots of students think he'd make a wonderful president," she said. "As it turs out, nobody recognizes the fact that he has. consistently been given a low rating by the Americans for Democratic Action during his time in Congress, meaning his record has been poor on issues like nuclear power, civil rights, and welfare programs." Despite Kennedy's legacy as a leader CINENMAI COMING HOME (Hal Ashby, 1978) Winner of 5 Academy Awards, this film returns us to the Sixties in a dramb of love and war. The insistent beat of such artists as RICHIE HAVENS and the ROLLINGwSTONES combine with the superb cinematography of Haskell Wexler to create a backdrop of paranoia and passion against which the tender love affair of a odraoleaic Vietnam vet and a Marine officer's wife develops.

But Townsend said the senator has risen above the incident. "That occurred more than 12 years ago," she said. "He was subjected to criticism then and rightfully so. But he could have chosen to retreat or to try and make the country better. He's chosen the latter, and has shown incredible courage to do so."
