One of his four surviving children, Michele McDonough, said yesterday that Mr. He and Abbie Hoffman, Jerry Rubin, Tom Hayden and Rennie Davis were convicted of inciting a riot, but the convictions were overturned on appeal. Among the bearded, beaded and wild-haired defendants, he was balding and wore a coat and tie. Dellinger, who had been protesting since the 1930s, was the oldest of the seven (originally eight) Vietnam War protesters charged with conspiracy and inciting to riot after a massive demonstration in the streets and parks of Chicago turned violent. David Dellinger, 88, a lifelong radical pacifist and one of the Chicago Seven antiwar demonstrators during the 1968 Democratic National Convention, died of pneumonia May 25 at the Montpelier, Vt., retirement home where he lived.
