-MMsi~1, iw THE MICHIGAN 'DAILY " + 14V FOOTBALL ACTION: chignKckintOK- ElittIM ContestsDUEgsPielsn T~ By DAVE ANDREWS I "Put the foot back into foot- ball" fans had been crying for many years, so they did, and now everyone's worried except Michi- gan's football Coach Bump Elliott. The widening of the goal posts last year and the addition of the "wild card" rule, which was de- signed to allow specialists to enter the game gave the kicker more emphasis than he has had for a long time in college football. Coach Duffy Daugherty of Michigan State even went to the extreme of using a soccer player to kick off for him last week against Iowa when his own men weren't kicking long enough. How- ever, despite all the publicity the stunt received, his soccer-player didn't do any better than anyone else, and whether or not he will be used again remains to be seen. Lack Consistency "The only thing we lack here is consistency", said Elliott yes- terday in regard to his crew of boosters, whose worth has been questioned following the Michigan State battle. A quick look at the length of the Michigan punts in the first three games conf.irms this statement. Reid. Bushong, the number one punter for the Wolverines, has kicked better than 40 yards several times, but has squibbed quite a few with the shortest traveling only 23 yards. He has still averaged about 34 yards per punt, with several going into the rend zone, costing him 20 yards per kick, as happened on his short one. Bushong has been plagued by this trouble since he was a sopho- more. He got off his longest kick, of 67 yards against Indiana that year, but was rarely used behind steady Darrell Harper. Scot Maentz, Michigan's alter- nate punter, has also been un- predictable. 'Mr. Everything' Elliott smiled when asked about last year's Mr. Everything when it came to kicking, Darrell Harper. "He was a real good punter and place kicker," said Elliott. However, when it comes to place kicking, the Wolverines don't have to hang their heads this fall. The job is in the good "feet" of John Halstead. Halstead, who kicked the field goal that nearly beat Missouri a year ago (Michigan lost on the game's last play) con- verted on five consecutive PAT tries this year, and booted a 35- yard field goal against Michigan State in the 24-17 loss two weeks ago.. "One of those days" Last week against Duke? "Just one of those days," said Elliott. "We were pretty surprised when we only scored one extra point." The Wolverines tried a fake once and bad center snaps also hurt. Lee Hall has- been Michigan's best kickoff man thus far, with Maentz again assuming part of the responsibility. Both are im- proving continually, and don't be surprised if a couple of kickoffs hit the end zone against North- western Saturday. Maybe the Wolverines don't kick quite as well as in the past couple of years, but the coaching staff isn't worried, and they're the ones who should know about such matters. MAENTZ BOOTS ONE - Scott Maentz, Michigan end, booms a punt downfield in practice. Maentz, a kick off man as well as a punter, is the only Wolverine to do both. He is also a fine pass catcher.
