Defensively, Denny McCotter and Cas Krol were stand-outs in the forward wall. This was the only game of the season in which Detroit failed to cross the goal line.

At the annual Homecoming game, the Titans squeezed by the rugged Oklahoma Aggies by a margin of 18-14 and con- tinued their winning streak to two games. Burgmeier tallied twice, while Riley crossed the goal line later in the game. The speedy Aggie halfback Bredde was the top ground gainer of the game. Outstanding line play by both teams helped keep the game close. U. of D. victory over the Aggies proved to be important in the ultimate share of the conference championship.

Cas Krol, tackle. ETROIT BOSTON COLLEGE 33 In a high scoring contest with Boston Col- lege, Detroit was bested by a score of 33-20. The mainstay for Detroit was Burgmeier as he crossed the double chalkline three times. Johnson, a speedy halfback, was outstanding for Boston with two touchdowns. Oftensive standouts for Detroit were Riley, Kline, O'Leary and Zambiasi, while line play was bolstered by Denny McCotter and Tim Moriarty. The game was marked by spasmodic pro- duction as both teams seemed to fluctuate in effectiveness. An unknown Titan smashes over the goal line after taking a hand-oFf from Quarterback Kline l7l, while Krol l7ll throws a key block, and Sheldon watches the advance.
