THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Looking for a big Columbus
Day blowout? Don't try Colum
bus, Miss. Or Columbus, Neb. Or
Columbus, Mont.
The party's already over in
those parts, although the 500th
anniversary of their namesake's
discovery of America is officially
marked Monday. Which is part of
the problem — more than likely,
two of 'em weren't even named
for the roving Italian.
Take Columbus, Mont., popula
tion 1,573, with no ties to the
Nina, the Pinta or the Santa
Maria.
"Early on, this was a settlement
called Eagle's Nest. Then later, it
became Sheep Dip," said Ron
Barndt of Columbus, Mont. "The
railroad changed it to Stillwater,
but there was confusion with a
town in Minnesota."
The solution: Eagle's Nest-
turned-Sheep Dip-turned-Stillwa-
ter became Columbus, which now
can be confused with towns in
dozens of states.
Like Columbus, Miss. At least
this town WAS named after
Christopher C. And they did have
a major party this weekend — in
honor of Jackie Sherrill and his
No. 18 Mississippi State football
team. Discovery of the New
World was shifted to the previous
weekend to keep things clear for
pigskin.
Which is not to say that Colum
bus Day is not a big event in cer
tain Columbuses — like the one in
Ohio (the biggest city named after
the famed explorer), where it's
more revered than the anniver
sary of Woody Hayes' discovery
of two-time Heisman Trophy win
ner Archie Griffin.
The majority of the nation's 41
Columbus-centric towns are plan
ning some sort of quincentennial
festivities, from a first-ever party
in the original Columbus in New
York state (established 1805) to an
international fiesta in Columbus,
N.M.
Guest of honor at the bash in
Columbus, N.Y.; was Rick Van-
derpool, who may know more
about America's Columbi than
anyone anywhere. He traveled
30,000 miles over two years taking
pictures of each and every Colum
bus in the country.
Pope honors Columbus' journey
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SANTO DOMINGO, Dominican Republic — Pope
John Paul II paid tribute Sunday to Christopher
Columbus for helping plant the seeds of Christianity
in the New World.*
The homage, at a Mass beside a controversial
lighthouse dedicated to the explorer, contrasted with
protests in parts of Latin America. Protesters say the
arrival of Columbus 500 years ago marked the start
of European conquest and the abuse of native peo
ples.
The Vatican had said the pope would not take
part in any official commemoration of Columbus' ex
plorations, but would be marking the arrival of the
first Christian missionaries.
"We are gathered in front of this Columbus Light
house, built in the form of a cross to symbolize the
Pope John
Paul II
cross of Christ planted on this
earth in 1492," the pope said on
Sunday.
Opponents of the lighthouse
have accused the president of
wasting millions of dollars on the
project. They also object to cere
monies honoring the European
explorer.
John Paul, on the third day of
a six-day visit to this Caribbean
nation, issued greetings to "all the
beloved children of America."
"America, open up the doors to Christ," he said.
"Let the seeds planted five centuries ago make all
the spaces of your life fertile: individuals and fami
lies, culture and work, economics and politics, the
present and the future."
