Most Harvard students currently working for President Carter's reelection are former campaign workers for Sen. Edward M. Kennedy '54 (D-Mass.)

Dale A. Viola '83, Carter's Harvard campaign coordinator and a former Kennedy volunteer, said yesterday all but one of the senator's top Harvard student aides are now working for the president.

But the Harvard coordinator for the independent campaign of Rep. John B. Anderson (R-III.) said yesterday that onethird of his ranks are former Kennedy partisans who refused to support Carter after his nomination in July.

Jerry S. Fortinsky '83, Anderson's Harvard coordinator and a Democrat, said yesterday that more than half of Anderson's campus workers are disaffected Democrats. He added that he expects even more rank-and-file Kennedy workers to join the independent, but said he believes many are "exhausted from the Kennedy push."

The one former Kennedy campaign aide at Harvard who declined to support Carter, Dennis J. Cannon '83, refused to surrender lists of locally registered Democrats until Lt. Gov. Thomas O'Neill's appeal for party unity this week.

Fortinsky said that O'Neill's call to Democratic Anderson supporters to rally behind Carter has had no effect on rank-and-file Democrats for Anderson, who are "very, very hostile towards the president."
