Ross Anthony has come a long way, but he
still has a long way to go
Anthony, a University economics professor,
grew up in Oklahoma and spent six years in the
Himalayan country of Nepal as a Peace Corps
volunteer and health advisor. Now he wants to go
to Washington, D C., replacing Democratic Rep
Jim Weaver
Running unopposed on the Republican side
of the May 18 primary election, Anthony is buying
billboard space throughout the Fourth District,
which covers the southwest corner of the state
"Name identification was something we had to
deal with from the beginning," says Anthony
campaign manager Carol Caulk
Paying for advertising and staff is a large part
of Anthony's campaign expenditures, which have
passed $71,000 The final cost tor the campaign
against Weaver will be between $300,000 and
$700,000, Caulk says
"We need to be in that range to win," she
says
In the 1980 general election, Republican
candidate Mike Fitzgerald spent more than
$379,000 — and lost
According to contribution reports filed April
27 with the secretary of state, Anthony has raised
only $74,414 That sum includes a $45,000 per
sonal loan from Anthony which must be paid back
with interest. He has received $10,000 from family
members and more than $6,000 from Oklahoma
oilmen, lawyers and businessmen
Although Anthony wants to raise his money
conducting a grassroots campaign, he hasn't
been too successful About $7,800 has come from
contributions under $200 The average contribu
tion has been between $100 and $200, Caulk
says
The percentage of money coming from small
individual contributions will increase as the cam
paign continues, she says “It takes time to build a
grassroots organization ”
At this point in the 1980 campaign, Fitzgerald
had raised thousands of dollars from timber
interests, a major source of funds for Weaver
opponents in past elections
Anthony has received only two timber-related
donations, worth $1,250
"We re looking at a broader base," Caulk
says "Our energies have not been focused on
one particular group "
Joe Rutledge, administrative assistant to
Weaver, says "It used to be that timber could

campaign headquarters before the general elec

make or break an election in this district Now
it's just one more factor "
Like Anthony, Weaver has raised about
$74,000 for his campaign However, most of his
money has come from labor unions and small
contributions Weaver has raised more than
$37,000 from contributions averaging $40. Rut
ledge says
National support is another indicator of dif
fering views on the race Anthony has received
$4,000 from the national Republican Congres
sional Committee, and expects to get $10,000,
Caulk says
The Democratic equivalent decided to give
the maximum legal amount of $25,000 to selected
candidates who are in substantial trouble,"
Rutledge says, adding "We are not in that cat
egory "
Weaver has spent about $31,000 so far, and
Rutledge does not expect much more to be spent
until the general election campaign Weaver's
sole primary opponent. Gene Arvidson, has
raised only $250 Weaver's campaign expendi
tures have paid for staff and reactivating the
campaign apparatus. Rutledge says
