...consider punter Steve Flach. His average has hovered around the 37 yd. mark most of the year, but he has repeatedly come through with big kicks when Harvard has been in a hole. He has also had the somewhat unnerving experience of watching the ball flutter over his head on occasion because of high center snaps--the one area in which the specialty unit has proved inconsistent...
Quincy picked up another pair of points in the start of the third quarter when a botched snap to the Currier punter resulted in a safety. Moments later, the rich got richer as Hatamiya fed tight end Dave Ramsey for a 35-yard T.D. The extra point was good...
Cornell placekicker Ron Rejda, normally reliable, missed a pair of field goal attempts in the final quarter that would have had the Harvard side of the stadium reaching for Gelusil if successful. A Jeff Lawrence center snap which arched over Crimson punter Steve Flach's head bounded out of the end zone for a safety, midway through the fourth quarter, closed the Big Red to within a touchdown and a two-point conversion. But the defense preserved the victory, freezing Cornell on its last two series and chalking up the Crimson's sixth straight win dating back to last season...
After two years as an end, halfback and punter with the Philadelphia Eagles, Restic worked as an assistant coach at a variety of Eastern colleges until, in 1962, he went north to take over as offensive coach of the Canadian Football League's Hamilton Tiger Cats.

...Jacobs took himself out and sophomore Jeff Lawrence took over the snapping chores. And in Harvard's first possession of the second half, at the Crimson 11-yd. line, Lawrence came on with Flach and promptly sent the ball sailing high to the punter's right--the same side from which a strong Holy Cross surged. Flach lept, snagged the ball, and lurched into a semi-punt. Not surprisingly, a pair of Crusader linemen blocked it and the ball bounced toward the goal line...
