Meeting until nearly midnight at the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel after the dinner, Reagan's staff argued again whether to debate Carter without Anderson. Earlier in the discussions, Aides Mike Deaver, Bill Timmons, Lyn Nofziger and Richard Wirthlin were all to some degree opposed. Undecided or uncommitted were Stuart Spencer, Bill Casey and Ed Meese.

Deaver will keep Reagan briefed, a conspicuous gap in the campaign to date...
