In Mississippi, which still has one of the largest blocs of uncertain delegates in the country, Schweiker all but spoke in a Southern accent. Reagan's basic argument to the delegates, which Schweiker enthusiastically joined, was that the two of them agree on just about all the really important basic issues detente, gun control, abortion and forced busing, among others. As Reagan "put it, Schweiker nas gotten a bad break in the media, which insisted on labeling him a liberalReagan said that he had never liked labels. BUT SCHWEIKER WAS still not a universal hit in Mississippi. One delegate, after listening to his presentation at a dosed-door meeting, put his reaction in personal terms: "Sen.

Schweiker wouldn't get a bid to any major college fraternity in the state of Mississippi," he said. "He'd be black-balled." Reagan staff members, who are experts on the South, a major part of Reagan's political base, at one point were attempting to advise Schweiker, the Northerner, on how to act in front of Southerners. "He Vas coming on too pushy," sid one. "We had to explain to him that when you deal with people in the South you can't be pushy. But it didn't do too much good.

He was still coming on too strong in Mississippi." Nevertheless, the ultimate fate of Mississippi's 30 convention votes is not yet clear, even though the Schweiker announcement clearly cost Reagan some support. i Several of the Mississippi delegates are still undecided and a major battle is going on in the delegation over whether the called unit rule should be observed, which would throw all the state's votes to one candidate or the other. Reagan's strategists still consider it possible that Mississippi delegates will either formally, or individually, abandon the unit rule and that Reagan may still get a major share of the votes. WHEN REAGAN AND Schweiker headed North they began to sing a somewhat different tune than they had in the South. Two weeks ago, in his first news conference after he was chosen by Reagan, Schweiker declared that the Regan-Schwei-k'er ticket 'was a "coalition" meaning of the GOP left and right and that he was "proud of it." But Regan did not use the words "coalition" in announcing his choice, and somehow the word never came up in Mississippi, When Reagan and Schweiker arrived in Newark, however, the coalition, like Schweiker, was born again.

Three minutes after arriving at Newark Airport, Reagan was calling the ticket a coalition for the first time. He said it was a coalition of conservatives and moderates. Reagan and Schweiker challenged various political rating Indexes which have classified Schweiker as a liberal. They came up with a favorite rating index of their own which they said showed Schweiker to be, for all practical purposes, a middle-roader. But even this index, a newsletter called Political Intelligence, classified Schweiker as a "moderate liberal" and ranked him as more liberal than Sen.

Charles Percy of Illinois, who has been considered the embodiment of Republican liberalism for most of his political career. But the key question was whether the repackaging was going to work. And as the campaign foray approached an end, with Reagan preparing to return to California to await the convention, results did not appear conclusive. It did appear, however, that Reagan strategists had not 311 OFF OFF Yf Brake Wheel Wheel. Hub drum, balancer.

On the other hand, they may have headed off an immediate Ford triumph. On their trip Reagan and Schweiker found that they had 'gained some and they had lost some. But the race for the Republican nomination is still up in the air. Reagan's strategists believe they Have profited by simply shaking things up with the Schweiker announcement. They are still operating on the theory that there are closet Reaga'nites in Republican ranks who will become known at the convention, and not before.

Rav-itz. He was sentenced to 45 days in jail. The state Court of Appeals reversed that conviction, holding that Ra'vitz, a Marxist, had admitted a dislike for Lobsinger and should have disqualified himself from hearing the case as two, other judges already had done. The second trial before Judge Kadela was markedly different from the trial before Ravitz. There were no demonstrations or protests at the second trial.

During the trial before Ravitz, Lobsinger supporters had repeatedly protested the absence of an American flag in the courtroom. Lobsinger, an employ of the city Department of Recreation, also was convicted in 1971 of disorderly conduct. 405 OFF 61" OFF 9xl2-FT.

BY JUDY DIEBOLT Fraa Press Staff WrIUr Right-wing activist Donald Lobsinger was found guilty Friday for the second time of assaulting a Roman Catholic priest at an anti-war demonstration more than three years ago. A Recorder's Court jury deliberated nearly two hours before returning the verdict against Lobsinger. Judge John Kadela, who presided over the four-day trial, scheduled sentencing for -Sept.

1. The maximum penalty for assault and battery is 90 days at the Detroit House of Correction. Lobsinger, 36, was convicted of assaulting the Rev. Thomas Hinsberg, head of the Detroit Archdiocesan Commission for World Justice and on Jan. 10, 1973.

The incident occurred in front of the Cathedral of the Blessed Sacrament at 9844 Woodward as the priest read an anti-war telegram sent to President Richard Nixon. Lobsinger testified that he approached the priest yelling "Judas" and "traitor" at him. Then, Lobsinger said, when other efforts to get the priest's attention failed, he put his hand on Father Hinsberg's arm and Father Hinsberg inexplicably stumbled backward. Father Hinsberg was then grabbed, kicked and beaten by two young men. Lobsinger claimed he did not know who they were.

LOBSINGER CAME to public attention in the mid-'60s when he organized a group called Breakthrough. Its expressed purpose was to "break through the curtain of silence which has surrounded the communist conspiracy." Over the' years he and the members of his group have held counter-demonstrations at dozens of demonstrations they considered communist or communist inspired.
