"We've organized very late here." said Walter Isaac, a spokesman for the campaip. "We're just hopeful that we can make a really good showing." He said evidence of support for Anderson in Washington state which gave 31 of its 38 national Republican delegates to Reagan in 1976 could be a boost to the congressman in the crucial March 18 Illinois primary. The last-minute Anderson campaign was based largely on the hope that many Independents and disgruntled Democrats can be persuaded to show up at Republican caucuses. Washington voters are not required to register by party affiliation. The results of the more than 6,100 caucuses will not be compiled the night of the meetings and may not be available for several days, Republican leaders said.

The caucuses are the first step In the selection of the state's 38 Republican and 58 Democratic national delegates, to be chosen at state party conventions in June. New library director Arthur S.

Quayle says Marsh 'distorts' his record of 88-90 attendance INDIANAPOLIS (UPI) Indiana voters now know almost certainly what their choices will be when they go to the primary election polls May 6. Five presidential candidates qualified before the Friday noon filing deadline for a chance to earn Indiana's national convention delegate votes.

They are former California Gov. Ronald Reagan, former UN ambassador George Bush and Rep. John Anderson, for the 54 Republican delegates, and President Carter and Sen. Edward Kennedy. for the 80 Democratic delegates.

Asked if this could Involve an unfair campaign practice charge with the Senate Ethics Committee, he answered: "We could file." Quayle also said columnist Jack Anderson failed to give the complete story In saying that Quayle had been filmed attending a congressional committee but left before the committee got down to work. "A film crew came in one day on Capitol Hill when I had two committee meetings Small Business and Foreign Affairs both meeting at the same time," Quayle said. He said the crew filmed him as he entered what he considered the least important of the two to speak to someone in the room and that he then went to the other simultaneous meeting. "Anderson made no mention of the fact I went to another meeting going on at the same time," Quayle said.

Quayle blamed Congress rather than the price of oil for most inflation. "Inflation in 1962 was 1 percent," he said. "Now it is 18 percent. During these same 18 years only one time has the budget been balanced." He proposed cutting the pay of congressmen and senators until inflation drops below 5 percent, imposing a freeze on government hiring and a moratorium on any new federal programs unless an existing program is eliminated first. INDIANAPOLIS (UPI) Salaries of all U.S.

senators and congressmen should be frozen until Congress gets the inflation rate, now 18 percent, below 5 percent, Rep. Dan Quayle, R-Ind. says. Quayle, at a news conference Friday also said his congressional attendance record is better than average and if his opponent for Republican nomination to the U.S. Senate starts another barrage of "distorted" advertising he may file a complaint.

Roger Marsh, Muncie, former executive director of the Indiana State Highway Commission, ran advertisements throughout the state which carried the same theme he used in announcing his candidacy for the U.S. Senate an attack on Quayle for missing important votes in Congress. One such charge, for example, was that Quayle "Is not doing his job and he's not taking responsibility. He has missed 255 votes in the 36 months he has been in Congress." "That is distorted," Quayle said. "My attendance record the first term was over 90 percent and the second term is 88 percent.

That's as good as I can do and run for the Senate. That's better than Senator Bayh. The seat sought by Quayle and Marsh is held by Sen. Birch Bayh, unopposed for Democratic nomination to a fourth term. Quayle said he "hadn't taken all that seriously" the charges made against primary Lieutenant Governor House Speaker Kermit Burrous, R-Peru, state Sen.

John Mutz, R-Indianapolis, former Bureau of Motor Vehicles commissioner Ralph Van Natta, Shelby-ville, and former Indianapolis city personnel director Gary Benson, competing for the Republican nomination.

John Anderson, riding high after two stunning second place finishes In Massachusetts and Vermont, brought his campaip back to Seattle, where a few weeks ago only two reporters met him at the airport. The presidential candidate, aiming for a strong showing in Tuesday's Washington state precinct caucuses despite a very late start, planned to address a conference of high school students, a campaign rally at the University of Washington and a public reception before returning to Chicago In the evening.

Anderson drew just two reporters to an airport new conference hen he visited Seattle as a virtual unknown several weeks ago. At that time, there was no state campaign organization for him, and it was thought that he and other GOP contenders were ready to concede the caucuses to Ronald Reagan and George Bush, who have been organizing in the state for many months. Anderson campaign officials said the candidate's last-minute decision to visit Washington again was prompted by a sudden outpouring of support fol Settlement a secret in Mercury fire suit Putteriiy Pete Tonight will be dry but cooler, with lows In the 20s.
