state chess champion, will act
as promoters for the marathon.
Both players said "speed"
chess is much more challeng-
ing than "slow" chess. Speed
chess requires rapid moves
with each player allotted a cu-
mulative time of five minutes
in which to make all moves
during a game.
Steve claims speed chess equ-
alizes the differences in skill,
"Endurance is as big a factor
as chess talent." As a result, he
predicts the quality of their
games will deteriorate as the
marathon continues.
"Mild hallucinations should
start after two or three days,"
Bob quipped.
THE MARATHON will be held
in David's Books, 529 E. Lib-
erty, and Steve and Bob can
be found playing in the display
window, inside, or even outside,
if weather permits. The action
will occasionally be interrupted
by five minute breaks.
The store will be open 24
hours a day to liven the atmos-
phere and encourage interested
spectators. They will need wit-
nesses present at all times to
give them credence. "We need
proof to show the Guinness
World Book of Records that we
are official," Steve says.
If they are successful, or as
Bob puts it, "When we are suc-
cessful," Mayor Stephenson will
present them with an award at
7:45 p.m. Sunday.r
IN ADDITION to the personal

satisfaction Bob and Steve will
receive for breaking the record,
they also say they are motivat-
ed by deep concern for the lack
of public awareness and sup-
port for chess.
"Ann Arbor is the chess capi-
tal of the Midwest," Steve says,
"yet its popularity seems to be
waning." They hope the mara-
thon's publicity will give local
chess a boost.
While both contestants appear
confident about their finishing,
Bob is concerned about "after-
shock."
"WE'LL probably wake up
with chess in our heads and
walk around seeing knights and
queens moving for the next
week," Bob says. He expects
to be dropping chess pieces by
the end of the ordeal.
Steve, a senior majoring in
philosophy, is presently state
junior chess champion for the
seventh straight time. He joined
the chess world at the age of
six, and played his first tour-
nament when he was fourteen.
Bob, on the other hand, join-
ed the chess craze during the
Fisher-Spassky battle. He de-
scribes himself as a local hust-
ler who plays in few tourna-
ments but takes many amateurs
for a ride. When not playing
chess he fries fish.
Numerous local businesses
have volunteered to donate mer-
chandise to entertain the play-
ers, such a records, food, drinks
-everything short of the moon.

spots in the Red Sea shows a
substantial increase in iron and
manganese content from that of

NEW HARMONY, Ind. (P)
- The first free public kinder-
garten in the United States was
established in this historic com-
munity in 1826 by William
Maclure, a Scottish geologist
and philanthropist. Maclure's
school, based on the education-
al principle that children should
never be taught what they can-
not comprehend, was also the
first in this country open to
both boys and girls.
The site of many early 19th-
century development in educa-
tion and social progress in
America, New Harmony is now
experiencing a massive historic
restoration and economic re-
vitalization under Historic New
Harmony Inc., a private non
profit organization.

dicated that some of the rea-
sons behind the landlords' chal-
lenge were insufficient.
According to Laidlaw, some
petition signers used their nick-
name or initials instead of
signing their name as it ap-
pears on voter registrationj
cards. He said that although
the landlords challenged these
signatures, they will be vali-
dated.
News of the challenges evok-
ed bitterness among members
of the Human Rights Party
(HRP), sponsors of the pro-
posal.

"THESE ATTEMPTS exhibit
a contempt for the Democratic
process," claimed D a v i d
Goodman, (HRP) City Council
candidate. Goodman said it is
unlikely the clerk's office would
have missed that many signa-
tures since they did "a very
thorough job" of investigating
the petitions, "I am very con-
fident that the challenge will
fail," he said.
Phil Carroll, coordinator of
the HRP, echoed Goodman's re-
marks saying the chances are
"very, very low" that the' land-
lords will keep the proposal
from the ballot.
