No one knew that the brilliant parade before the game would be about historical distortion. But the theme had already been chosen. The Grand Marshal had already been selected. This year's theme, Voyages of Discovery, her- aids, among other great discoveries, the 500th ahniversary of Christopher Columbus' encounter With the "New World."Observers of the parade will be greeted by two Grand Marshals at the front of the parade instead of the customary one. The first, appointed Oct. 8 by the Pasadena Toumament of Roses Association, is Crist6bal Coldn, the 20th direct descendant of Columbus. The Association appointed the second Grand Marshall, Congressman Ben Nighthorse Campbell (b-Colo.), several days later in response to pres- sure form the media and outraged citizens. * Campbell is the only Native American in Congress, and his position is one Native Americans can be pround of. But you do not have to be a o u Read it and weep Buckeyes, if yc n the eve of this historic Michigan-Ohio State clash,we Daily writers aren't going to descend into the trough of petty acrimony. (If Buckeye students know what that means). Instead, we'll begin with pleasant conversation. So, Coach Cooper. How's recruiting going? Elvis Grbac. Ricky Powers. Brian Townsend. Qtis Williams. All these players escaped from Ohio and headed north in search of a college education, as did ahost ofother Michigan standouts. Including that No.21 guy who plays wide receiver. And who can blame them? Michigan has all those things that Ohio State can only dream of. Admissions standards, for example. To become a student at Michigan, you need to rank in the top 5 1 percent of yourhigh school class, score well on the ACT, and be involved in avariety ofextra-curricular + aletivities. To get into Ohio State, you need a pulse.I The job of the Ohio State admissions director is + to determine whether the applicant is respirating. 'the first step in this process is to put a mirror in+ front of the applicants mouth. If it fogs up, con- I gratulations - you're a Buckeye. This process is incredibly effective - Ohio State has accepted + W rongagain history scholar or a Native American, whose an- cestors were murdered and enslaved by Columbus and his crew, to know that Campbell is only a token and the entire fesival is a hoax. We were all taught as children that Columbus made a brave and daring voyage accross the At- lantic. We were also taught that this land had not been previously settled by civilized people. But we were not told that Columbus' "discovery" of America lead to the subsequently murder, rape, and disease to the natives who had long lived without the sting of the sabre or the curse of alchohol before their land was "discovered." Journals kept by crew members of the Nina, the Pinta and the Santa Maria describe savages in the new world. They saw them as animals and treated them like animals. They beat them and killed them and kept them as slaves. We were taughtlies and these lies do not deserve celebration. The anniversary of death and tyranny and genocide of an innocent people might be a moment to commemorate and remember and mourn, but not with marching bands, not with music and certainly not with football. More than Magic To the Daily: I am somebody. I am dead, but refuse to die My numbers get larger every day, even as you read these words I am dead, but no one cried "Why not me?" I wonder why. I, too, had AIDS but no one cried To save me wasn't worth it, I heard One more faggot got what IT deserved!" But now one of the powerful got it too A lovable superstar, we all can woo no one stood for me on Arsenio I was number 847 in the year of our Lord But he wouldn't have me livin' next door My father forgot my name, erased "that disease" forever If I were Magic, they would have had a parade But I was a non-millionaire, with no insurance and the emergency room got cold, waitin' eight hours or more Magic'll get encouragement, friends and AZT galore You know, my mother forgot my name, wouldn't come near my door My final rest was in my tears and urine on a cold floor. Alone. I was but one, and we are but many. Friends, support and press conferences we never got any. "Nigger wasn't careful," were the last words I heard And no one stood up on Arsenio and applauded us They say he was brave for sayin' what he said but my bossand "Christian" friends would first rather have me dead, then their hand to me lend Now they comin' by thousands sayin', "we were there all along." Unconscionable hypocrites, I won't let 'em sing my song the suddenness of their tune unsettles me On each newsstand, every corner, from Detroit to Hong Kong his bravery was heralded. I, too, was brave And Arsenio didn't do the Bojangles for me So when you sleep with T-shirt on tonight ("price of Magic's trading cards have gone up 25 percent") don't ever forget that some unidentified, one-less-faggot, unsuperstar, weren't-careful- nigger (And my family fogot my name) ....well, we still dyin' one by one Michael Monkman LSA senior Daily insensitive To the Daily: You would think, after several weeks of intense debate in this community, the Daily would exhibit a greater sensitivity toward those who have been offended, worried and pissed-off by the Daily's printing of the Holocaust Revisionist ad. Apparently that is not the case. Personally, I was sickened by the numerous uncoordinated excuses put forth by the Daily and worried by the justification of the Opinion Page editor, Stephen Henderson. Sorry, but freedom of speech does not include yelling fire in a crowded theater. Or to adapt this to your weak analogy, I have the right to swing my fist until it hits you in the face. Swinging a fist is not a crime. Hitting you in the face is assault. In today's Daily (11/6/91), I read a top ten list by Kim Yaged entitled, "Top 10 reasons why Holocaust Revisionism has not appeared in the music of Politi- cally-Correct artists." In addition to not being funny (and I can laugh at just about anything), it continues to show the lack of sensitivity the Daily shows towards Jews. In this list there are innuendos to Jewish stereotypes (i.e. Corporate Sponsorship, for some reason, has been unavailable). What are you trying to say? In addition, saying that PC musicians know the Holocaust didn't happen, even in a kidding manner, only brings up the hurt and anger that more people have written to you about in the past two weeks. I've been actively reading the Daily for eight years and never have I seen such a response to the bumbling idiodicy of this paper, no small feat. The Daily would never run an ad that denies the plight of Blacks and the existence of slavery. If it did, I would highly doubt it would print the "Top 10 reasons why Blacks were never owned by whites," two weeks later. I won't bother to give any examples. I feel bad enough for drawing the analogy. Jonathan Greenberg University Alum ou can less than 10 percent of the cadavers who have applied. But beyond these criteria, football players choose Michigan because of its gridiron success. Sure, Michigan is no Air Force, but it has lost only two of its last 31 Big Ten games. Moreover, Michigan will play in its third Rose Bowl in four years this Jan. 1. The last time Ohio State played in the Rose Bowl, John Cooper's daughter was posing for Highlights instead of Playboy. The only way Ohio State can win tomorrow's game is if the Ohio State athletic department gets smart and fires Cooper before the game. Actually, that's not such an unrealistic possibility. However, we at Michigan are fully behind Coach Cooper. After all, it's nice to have an auto- matic victory at the end of the season. This year, Coopersensed that he mighthave an outside chance to beat the Wolverines for the first time in his career, so he promptly decided to spot us tailback Robert Smith. We always knew Ohio State players had no class, but we never knew it was a team rule. ;":. .}4 ,{.;".,vf1}.{;.7}vYr}7v.{ v ,r,.,n.Y 4 Y'n{n Sy .,.{h"',S';h'e.. r{ :{.{f."7:;{:.ti.., ..}.},:v
