At Serb Hall, a combination beer hall
and bowling alley on Milwaukee's in-
dustrial south side, Reagan was
cheered wildly when he listed what he
said should be the issues in the 1980
election campaign: "Family, home,
eighborhood, work, peace, and
reedom."
ONE VETERAN political reporter
covering the event noted that the last
time he ever remembered a beer
drinking, working class crowd that fer-
vent over a political candidate was in
that same Milwaukee beer hall eight
years ago - when the candidate was
George Wallace.
Louis Scrip of Milwaukee was seated
in the front row of Serb Hall for the
Reagan rally, and with his beer in hand,
was among the most vocal
cheerleaders. "I was a Democrat all
my life, but I'm a Republican now,"
Scrip said after the rally. "I voted for
Carter last election. I won't vote for
him again. I'm a Reagan man now."
Marion Royten of Milwaukee's south
side is perhaps even more indicative of
the new Reagan supporters. Like Scrip,
she too is a Democrat. "It used to be if
you're a Democrat, you voted for the
Democratic candidate. But not any
more," she said.
Royten said, "I've never voted
Republican in my life, so in 1976 I voted
for Jimmy Carter. I don't mind voting
Republican now. I'm voting for
Reagan."
DAN RADOVICH, a beer hall em-
ployee who listened to Reagan's speech
said he hadn't made up his mind whom
to vote for. But he came away from
Reagan's speech impressed. "I like
Reagan," he said. "My wife's a
Democrat, and she's voting for
Reagan."i
And Reagan's appeal is not limited to
older voters. Jay Grassell, a student at
the Medical College of Wisconsin, is in
his "mid-twenties," and is an adamant
Reagan supporters. Grassel said that
when he was an undergraduate, he was
a liberal Democrat. "But once you get
out of college, you realize that that stuff
doesn't work."
Grassell typifies the scope of
Reagan's appeal among traditional
Democratic voters. Like his wife Ann,
Grassell is a second generation eastern
European - he is Polish - and a
Catholic, the voters who formed the
core of the Democratic party during
Franklin Roosevelt's New Deal
coalition.
"REAGAN IS going to get a lot more
support among the ethnics and white
Catholics than people expect," Grassell
said. "My parents, all of our parents,
grew up in Catholic households. Most of
us believe in a strong family unit, most
of us are against abortion. We believe in
a strong defense. Reagan is more in line
with our views."
