He also discusses his role in Ann Arbor’s legendary Blues and Jazz Festivals, producing the John Sinclair Freedom Rally at Crisler Arena in 1971, and bringing John Lennon and Yoko Ono to town.

Now For Some Sleep: Ann Arbor has yet one more accomplishment to put it on the map- home of the world champion, record-breaking speed chess players. U-M students Steve Feldman (left) and Bob Beinish accept congratulations from Mayor and Mrs. James Stephenson. They began their marathon at 9 a.m. Thursday and concluded 87 hours and 35 minutes later, breaking the previous record of 81 hours and 32 minutes. Feldman won by a wide margin. The game was held at David's Bookstore near campus. Bill Gilmore, of David's Bookstore attributed the marathon game to the present time of depression. "Things like this are always done at depression times. How can you identify with the accomplishments of Bobby Orr (Boston Bruins hockey player), who is making thousands when you are making pennies. You look for the accomplishments of someone else who is making pennies. Besides, everyone has so much free time," he explained.
