Square is the right's latest answer to the left. Its chief financial backer is Patrick Frawley Jr., 44, who is board chairman of Eversharp, and a veteran right-wing crusader.

A red-bordered pamphlet titled Ronald Reagan: Extremist Collaborator has been widely distributed and lays out-with sources footnoted-various Reagan quotes along with the names of "Fright-Wing" cash contributors and such advisers as Schick Razor President Patrick J. Frawley and Henry Salvatori, co-chairman of Reagan's finance committee and executive committee, who has been closely affiliated with such way-right causes as Project Alert and the Anti-Communist Voters League...
