		Some favoured a game in which the ball could be carried (as at Rugby, Marlborough and Cheltenham), whilst others preferred a game where kicking and dribbling the ball was promoted (as at Eton, Harrow, Westminster and Charterhouse).
		A player shall be entitled to run with the ball towards his adversaries' goal if he makes a fair catch, or catches the ball on the first bound; but in case of a fair catch, if he makes his mark he shall not run.

	KeepGoing.org : Fall 2003 : I Just Bet My Balls...And Shook On It
		There were three main differences between Dodge Ball and Murder Ball (other than, of course, the average death rate of the players): first off, Dodge Ball was played with those big, soft, swirly-colored, generic “balls” that you could buy at the toy store out of one of those big six-foot-tall wire baskets.
		Murder Ball, however, was played with small, fist-sized balls made out of the same rubber you’d find on a hot water bottle, and adorned with a pattern of little raised rubber cross-hatches, evidently to increase the likelihood that a direct hit would draw blood.
		A murder ball thrown by a ninth-grader with an arm like a thunderbolt (and at my age and diminutive size, most of them seemed to have such an arm) tends to whip through the air with a distinctive dull, low whistle.

		HOWARD BALL, presently professor of law at Vermont Law School and professor emeritus of political science at the University of Vermont, is a veteran of the civil rights movement and for many years taught at Mississippi State University.

	Las Vegas SUN: Columnist Peter Benton: Tempo is the key to a more consistent swing
		Our first and foremost thought when swinging a club should be "make it smooth." When one tries to "murder" the ball, you lose all the basic elements that make up an effective golf swing.
		The only reason the ball goes further when you hit the driver is because the club is longer, has less loft and your swing is also longer.
		Address the first ball and make your swing, and then without stopping, swing the club back to the top as you step toward the second ball.

		Second, the very specific tactic of doing extra circuits with possession of the ball and running down the clock in the final few minutes of the fourth period.
		To his credit, Dubberley has suggested a 45-second shot clock to prevent long periods of running down the clock and holding the ball in perpetual possession, but the rules do not provide for this at present.
		The debate is whether you play in a positive offensive way and maintain the sporting spirit, but in fact risk defeat, or whether the shutdown in possession approach, particularly in the fourth period, is the better way ahead.
