On The Clock

If your Dartmouth memorabilia collection isn't complete without an Ivy League championship clock, you are in luck. This one from the 1972 team, noting it was presented to the "Ivy League Champions, Fourth Consecutive Year," is for sale on e-bay. As of 8 this morning there was just one bid, for $25, and it was scheduled to be sold tonight to the highest bidder. Click here for a better look or to make a bid.
The head trainer for that 1972 was Fred Kelley. Now retired and living in Florida, Kelley is in Hanover this weekend to play in the Tommy Keane Invitational golf tournament. On the TKI blog yesterday, I wrote a feature story on Kelley that begins with an anecdote about former head freshman football coach "Cactus" John Curtis. Find that story here.
