Columbus March Brings Out the Candidates
By MAURICE CARROLL
Politics marched along with the pa-
UNITED
raders yesterday as thousands-including
President Ford's son Stephen and the
Democratic Vice Presidential candidate,
Walter F. Mondale-stepped up Fifth
Avenue in bright, snappy weather to
celebrate Columbus Day.
Some local Democrats complained that
a jittery Secret Service contingent had
held up their entry into the parade, and
others complained that the sponsors had
given the President's son a better posi-
tion, up front.
"The Secret Service was so busy shov-
ing reporters away from Mondale that the
parade went by without us," said an aide
to Governor Carey.
"When we got to the reviewing stand,"
said Representative Mario Biaggi of the
Bronx, "there wasn't even a place for us,
so I said to Mondale, 'Come on, Fritz,'
and we made a Democratic beachhead."

Steven Ford, the President's son, whose presence disturbed some local
