Dartmouth May Use Unique Quick Kick

Harvard fans should be on the look-out Saturday for a new Dartmouth football tactic: a special version of the quick kick. Instead of facing forward and kicking with the instep as is usually done, Captain Bob Rex turns to the sidelines and slaps the ball over the scrimmage line with the inside part of his foot.

"It's no easy spiral for somebody to catch. It hits the ground on its side, or an end, with a forward roll. If anybody's there, it's hard to pick up. If nobody's there, it keeps going," explains Indian Coach, Bob Blackman.
