Conerly. who has thrown 33 of his 156 National Football Lcaguo touchdown passes against tho Redskins, enjoyed his spree in the fi-.ft 29 minutes. Then he sat down ta rest for a dance in his honor while the Giants whizzed to a 4S-14 triumph that clinched at least a tic for the Eastern Divi sion title.
