Moose mascot
Buliwinkle tradition stays alive

By PHILIP CHIDEL
Something unusual happened
Saturday before the Michigan-
Maryland football game.
While both teams ran through their
warm-ups and the fans streamed into
the stadium, a moose walked into the
student section, wearing a maize and
blue scarf and a Wolverine jersey.
THAT'S RIGHT, a moose. With a bit
of imagination, the antlered, two-
legged beast was reminiscent of
Bullwinkle. At least Dan Bornstein,
the LSA freshman inside the moose
suit, hoped so.
An explanation?
"I saw there was a need for a
mascot, and I felt I was the man for
the job," Bornstein said, adding that
his purpose is to make people laugh.
"I wanted to choose a mascot that
was appropriate for the students of
Michigan, and I felt Bullwinkle was
perfect. It's a tradition here."
BORNSTEIN learned of the
tradition at the Sept. 14 football game
against Notre Dame. It was the first
time he saw the Wolverines play, and
he was amused when the fans stuck
their thumbs in their ears and waved
their hands. The only answer he
received when he asked what they
were up to was "Bullwinkle."
"A light bulb" turned on in Bor-
nstein's head, he recalled yesterday.
He thought of the bison costume he
had at home, left over from his career
as the official mascot of Beechwood
High School in Cleveland. After he
had the suit mailed up, Bornstein rip-

ped off the bison's horns and attached
cardboard antlers in their place.
Getting onto the football field didn't
pose much of a problem initially, he
said, although campus security escor-
ted him away four times.
"I SCOOTED around security and
tried to avoid anyone who looked con-
spicuous," he remembered with a
grin. "I entered through the entrance
in front of where the band sits."
He was everywhere. When ROTC
members carried the American flag
onto the field, Bullwinkle was right
behind them, marching boldly and
proudly.
When the marching band trooped
onto the field, Bullwinkle high-
stepped in rhythm and waved his ar-
ms like a conductor.
AND WHEN the M Club raised the
"GO BLUE" banner, he was right
beside them on the 50-yard line, jum-
ping and dancing to fire up the team.
He also kicked field goals with
imaginary footballs, ran around the
edges of the field to start the crowd
cheering, and peeked up the skirts of
Maryland cheerleaders.
When he was thrown off the field
for the fourth time, Bornstein finally
took his seat in the student section,
minutes before kickoff.
For the most part, the fans were en-
thusiastic. They applauded his antics,
patted him on the back, and rubbed
his nose.
"HE SYMBOLIZES everything in
life that I want to be," said Gilles
Chiasson, a freshman in the music

school.
Terrapin fans, on the other side of
the stadium, looked twice. Alan
Glazier, a sophomore at the Univer-
sity of Maryland who attended the
game, said, "People in the Maryland
section looked at the moose and said,
'Wait a minute. That's not a
wolverine."'
"But that's okay," he added. "Our
terrapin (a turtle) is better anyway."
Bornstein placed phone calls to
Athletic Director Don Canham and
his assistant director, Will Perry, in-
tending to discuss the possibility of
becoming the University's official
mascot. But he never reached the
directors, and thinks they were the
ones who ordered him off the field.
"Why don't they have a mascot?"
asked Bornstein. "Why won't they?
Why...why shon't they?" ("Shon't,"
he explained, is for alliteration.)
Not everyone in the stands thought
Bullwinkle should become a lasting
symbol of the Wolverine team. One
LSA student said, "I don't feel there is
a need for a mascot, and I'm not going
to favor the use of one."
Considering the negative feedback
and the unlikely prospect that the
athletic department will adopt him,
Bornstein was asked whether he'll
make another appearance at this
Saturday's game against the Univer-
sity of Wisconsin.
Bornstein smiled, leaned back in his
chair, and said, "I'll play it by an-
tler."

Associated Press
South African President P. W. Botha addresses his ruling National Party in Port Elizabeth yesterday. Botha offered
to allow blacks on the President's Council, a 60-member advisory body, but ruled out a one-man, one-vote
system.

Botha offers blacks seats on council

minorities in a constitutional system
built by whites over three centuries -
"that is, how they can share in a
liberated South Africa. All reasonable
South Africans want to see that
freedom becomes their share."
He appealed to black leaders to en-
ter negotiations, and did not repeat
such past preconditions as renoun-
cing civil disobedience..
"THE F ACTS are that we are busy
(working) to outgrow apartheid in the
discriminatory and negative sense,
and have done so in many respects,"

he said.
Botha portrayed himself as caught
between a radical left and reactionary
right, seeking a middle ground that
"recognizes the principle of self-
determination of ... community life
such as education, residential areas
and social welfare, local managment,
and private ownership - in other
words, in culture in the general
meaning of the word."
The president contended that the
party had moved beyond white
domination and seeks "a process of

consultation in an evolutionary way
with recognition of each other's
rights. This is an approach that ac-
cepts the human dignity of all South
Africans."
He said he was prepared to include
blacks in the President's Council*"if
the need exists among the leaders of
black communities to participate
within the President's Council in
inquiries and the submission of
proposals . . . on matters concerning
those communities."

Vaughan's guitar licks dance around

steady counterpoint. Suure its a pat
combination. one listen will prove it
true, but the facts are that the
Vaughan/Hendrix connection runs
much deeper than stylistic
similarities.
Hendrix was an innovator. He ex-
periemented with new musical forms
and incorporated them into old ones,
then added his own flash to make his
songs unique expressions of both
himself and his times. It is in this area
