Barbara Steve Zoltonj
HALPERT BURGHARDT FERENCY
U.S. Senate State Representative State Supreme Court
De t ed by a squad it had been
favored to beat by several touch-
downs.
This number three team' was
studded with at least four All-
Americans and a host of other
all-conference players. But des-
pite all their efforts over 59 min-
utes and 34 seconds, they were
only tied and their national rank
was in great danger.
Then out on to the field step-
ped an unknown, second string
senior guard for the number
three team. He was only in for
one play, and all he did was
swing his right leg once, but
as he left the gridiron he was an
instant hero, and his team had
won the game and maintained
its conference lead.
Of course, the game in ques-
tion here was Michigan's 20-17
victory over Purdue last year,
and the unlikely hero was Dana
Coin, who booted a 25-yard field
goal to win the contest. But the
story goes to show that the kick-
ing game, which may seem in-
consequential in sizing up teams
in the preseason, can become the
difference between a good and
a great season for the Michi-
gan Wolverines. x
Finding a successor for the
graduated Coin has thus this
year become a major priority
for Michigan coach Bo Schem-
bechler. The competition has
been keen among four different
men, with no one contender real-
ly establishing himself as yet as
the class of the field.
But at this point, it appears
that 24-year-old sophomore Mike
Lantry will start the season
boots so tar in practice.is
kickoffs' have been high and
have reached, the end zone with
consistency.
However, his accuracy and
consistency on placekicks have
at times been. in doubt, and of
course, he has never kicked un-
der the type of pressure he will
face before 100,000 crowds at
Michigan Stadium.
Still, the coaches feel that he
is their best bet in the opener,
and they feel that on any kick
inside' of 30 yards, Lantry can be
counted on.
One of the other candidates
for the job has been senior John
Daniels. Daniels has a bit of
kicking experience in his back-
ground, and probably would be
very reliable for extra points
and other short kicks.
However, his distance is very
limited, and a further problem
with his kicks is the fact that
they are low and rise slowly,
and could be more easily block-
ed. Also, unlike the other kick-
ers, Daniels also plays another
position, and the practice time
he spends trying to wrest the
split end position from Bo Rath-
er has detracted from his kick-
ing.
A third hopeful has been an-
other senior, Mark McCabe. Mc-
Cabe, who kicked in high school,
came out in the spring and was
quite impressive.However, he
became a controversial figure
because of the fact that a head
injury suffered in childhood
makes him very susceptible to
serious injury should he be hit
hard during the course of a

game.
But McCabe failed to come
out to fall practice until late,
and so far his kicking has not
astounded anyone. At the pre-
sent time it is doubtful whe-
ther he will do any kicking for
the Wolverines this year.
The fourth candidate is a sur-
prising freshman, Ron Dudzik.
Dudzik is considered to have a
very strong leg and tremendous
potential. However,' his knowl-
edge of kicking is as yet limited,
and he will not be ready to open
the year kicking during games.
But Dudzik does have a future
as a Michigan kicker, and is im-
proving in practice every day.
Perhaps later this year and cer-
tainly in the future. Dudzik will
have a chance to make a con-
tribution to the team, especially
if Lantry should falter.
The Michigan punting game is
much more decided, with a top-
notcher returning in B a r r y
Dotzauer. Dotzauer's 40.3 over-
all average last year was slight-
ly better than his 39.2 Big Ten
aver gi, which placed h i m
fourth in the league.
However, with Dotzauer pos-
sibly being called 'upon to fill in
at cornerback sometimes this
year, he will be susceptible to
injury, and that leaves Schem-
bechler with a problem, as his
number two and thrle punters,
Geoff Steger and Kevin Casey,
are already sidelined by injury.
This brings Dudzik back into
the picture, as he has also
shown considerable p u n t in g
ability in practice. Should Dot-
zauer be knocked out of action,
the freshman's Big Ten baptism
could be earlier than expected.
. Overall, the Michigan kick-
ing game is still in a great deal
of doubt. However, Schembech-
ler is confident that by the big
conference gaines later in 'the
season, when that one big boot
could make the difference be-
tween victory and defeat, he will
have established and experienc-
ed men ready as was Coin to
keep the Wolverines in conten-
tion for the Big Ten crown.
