(Landis-Shangle photo) Defense Seems Now To Be Even With Offenes New York (U.R) The defense, which has struggled for the last decade to cope with the tricky T-formation and its various off shoots may have caught up at long last with the offense in college football. That's the evidence of the NCAA's latest statistics which reveal that six of the nation's major teams with perfect rec ords are among the top 10 teams in total defense. Heading the list is unbeaten and untied Boston College, which has yielded an average of 135 yards in three games. That figure just shades Navy, also unbeaten and untied, which has yielded 135.5 yards in four games. Other Teams The other teams with perfect records amqng the top 10 in total defense are Maryland No. 4, Holy Cross No. 5, Duke No.' 6 and West Virginia No. 10. Star Body 1 A. Bohannan 446, H.
