Expecting the defense to do all the work is something else. The Titans tried it Fri day night before 15,180 hopeful loyalists and got beat by Miami of Florida, 10-7.

They pushed to Dennis Hackett's three-yard touchdown sweep first time in possession, then did little on attack for the rest of the evening. That was just too much for the beleagured U-D defensive platoon. After their 65-yard touchdown thrust, the Titans gained only 17 yards more before halftime while failing get outside their own 27-yard marker. again, along with being shoved back from the 13 to Don Cifra's 37-yard field goal all before halftime.

The Hurricanes came right back again to reach the 17 and then have quarterback Bob Biletnikoff's deflected pass intercepted by U-D guard Jerry Dudley. But that was it. Next time, Miami struck 61 yards in 11 plays to score the touchdown, on Biletnikoff's eight-yard pass to end Fred Erown in the end zone with 1:32 left in the third period. For Miami, sophomore Biletnikoff's 20 connections on 28 of his line-drive passes accounted for 183 tin (nfi) rw 11 m.hiihhiii-i -tri-ii HMnartfHi 'irW-'a ma mUti nimiifrif! ilifmninirnin' ti Hi ifltnifmV mi i immim iMiia mm in cf f.ioii imup.i RON JOHNSON, Northwestern High halfback, gets into full steam for an 18-yard gallop in the second quarter of a football game with Cooley.

Four it will have to be someone other than the Pistons. Compounding the Detroit miseries were poor shooting from utside and sour foul shooting.

On the East Side, Southeastern cinched a share of the crown without moving a muscle, sitting the day out with a bye, while Central upset Pershing, 20-7, to eliminate the Doughboys from the title picture.

Both clubs can take undisputed championships with wins in their last game next week. Southeastern must get by Central while Southwestern faces its neighbor Western. Halfback Grant Hilburn paced the Prospectors to their! win over Cody with a pair of second-half touchejowns to give the West Side school its fourth win of the season against one tie. LONG GAINERS Hilburn sped 58 to 54 yards for scores to snap a 7-7 deadlock, gaining 150 of his team's rushing yardage on 12 carries, to carry Southwestern to vie tory. Guard Al Gamble played a strong defensive game for the Prospectors and went 28 yards with a fumble for his team's first TD.

Cody came to within seven points with a touchdown in the game's final two minutes but Southwestern ran the clock out with ball control. Cooley, still hanging on to a title chance, tripped Northwestern on the fleet shoes of Len Maurer.

STOP TITANS Miami's defenses limited U-D to a modest 128 even with the touted Indian defender, Andy Sixkiller, out with injury. But injury also hit the U-D offense. Fred Beier tried his ailing knee for three successive carries for 14 yards in the middle of the touchdown drive and was through for the evening. Big gainers in the scoring march were Bob Burg-hardt's 13-yard hurdling run, quarterback Ron Bishop's 17-yard pass to Chuck Anderson, and Bishop's well-faked 14-yard sprint to the Miami one. Hackett immediately scored from there only to have the play recalled by a five-yard penalty.

Three plays later he took Bishop's pitch-out and went three yards around the left side for the score that counted. TWO THEFTS Where the Hurricanes had Sixkiller missing, however, they still had Art Zachary, a 6-foot-5 defensive back, to intercept two of Bishop's passes. The first theft came with Bishop throwing from his own 27 in the third period in the Titans' only attempt to open their attack. "We planned to open up," said U-D coach John Idzik. "But Bishop hurt his arm in the third quarter." Idzik finally lifted Bishop in favor of sophomore Dick Waring, then returned him only to have Zachery intercept again.

The decision ended a nine-game winless streak, longest in school history, for Miami and left U-D 2-5 for the fall.

Terry Dischinger and Reggie Harding accounted for more than half of the Detroit field goals. Dischinger played his best game as a Piston and scored 22 points. Harding added 18.

But Dave DeBusschere. Eddie Miles and Ray Scott were far off shooting form. DeBusschere did play a strong game on the boards and led the Pistons with 15 rebounds. Nor will Joe Caldwell include his professional debut in his memoirs. The rookie played 14 minutes, missed all eight shots he took and, although displaying his heralded jumping ability, managed only to be called for goal-tending on a Boston shot.

The Celtics let Detroit get as close as four points early in the second half, but maintained an eight to 12-point lead most of the way. A cluster of eight points by Satch Sanders and Larry Siegfried made it 98-83 and left coach Red Auerbach so relaxed he let Russell sit out the last three minutes.
