Disappointed Titans Lose to Leto In the battle of the cellar dwellers, the Titans faced the Falcons of Leto. The Titan defense completely beat up Leto in the first quarter and forced the Falcons to punt each time. Twice within the Leto 20 yard line, the offense just couldn ' t score. In the second quarter, Jay Barcalow kicked a 32 yard field goal. The defense did a fantastic job in hold- ing the Leto offense to almost no first downs. With no support from the offense for the entire second half the defense finally broke down. The second half just dragged out with no show of life from the offense at all, except a fine personal performance by George Pee- ples as he scored on an 18 yard run. Leto scored several more times and won the game 20-9. : makes a fine defensive play.
