...mellower George Wallace? Not the fellow who was stumping last week in Chicopee, Mass.-or "Chickapoo," as he once called it.

Accommodations at the high-rise development on the Inn River will be spartan, but 60 cooks in the mess hall will see that none of the competitors go hungry.

"Not everyone approves, but every day people thank me for doing it," said the inn's owner, Paul Presley, adding that the former President had given his blessing to the project.
