Harland Svare blocked a field goal attempt with 73 seconds to play Sunday and saved the Giants' 19-17 victory over the Detroit Lions. The fake kick came early in the final period when the Lions were leading 17-12. They elected to gamble on fourth down. The run from punt formation fizzled and the Giants, 1956 world champions, moved for a TD and a 19-17 lead. Despite the backfire, the Lions threatened to knock the Giants out of contention. Jim Martin had perfect shot at a 25-yard field goal for the three points that would have given Cleveland the undis puted title. But Svare, a 27-year-old line backer from Washington State, barreled through and got his left hand on the ball. A New York player fell on the ball and the Giants waltzed through, the re maining seconds. Svare explained the blocked kick: "Three of us worked it out' he said. "Carl Karilivaci was to take out Roger Zatkoff, Andy Robustel li was to get Jerry Perry, and I was to shoot through the opening and go for the kicker. It worked out just that way. This was the biggest play of my career." Detroit Coach George Wilson aid he ordered the fourth-down gamble that boomeranged. The Lions needed 2 yards for a first down, and had possession on their own 43. Yale Lary took the snap in punt formation, but tried to circle end. He was driven out of bounds after a two yard pickup. Five plays later, after Charlie Conerly passed 35 yards to Bob Schnelker, the Giants scored. "I called the play," said Wilson, "I saw the Giants were open. This game play has worked three times for us in the past. .It s one of those things. Either it works or it doesn't. So I'm a bum." capable of destroying the New York Giants defensive bastion. It's the Giants' defensive unit Brown has to beat Sunday in New York's Yankee Stadium if Cleve land is to add to its string of Eastern Conference titles in the National Football League. Cleveland defeated Philadelphia 21-14 Sunday, clinching at least a tie for the championship, while me runner-up Giants stayed alive wun a 19-17 victory at Detroit. That leaves the Browns (9-2) with a one-game lead over New York (8-3). A tie or victory in the regular season finale Sunday gives Cleveland the title, The Giants can only hope for a play- on oy winning. If a playoff is needed it will be staged in New York Dec. 21 The Eastern winner meets the Baltimore Colts, Western Confer ence champions, for the NFL title the following Sunday in the East ern entry's park. The Colls dropped a 30-28 deci sion at Los Angeles Saturday, although Baltimore quarterback Johnny Unitas pitched three touchdown passes and set an NFL record. It was the 24th consecutive game in which Unitas had passed for a TD, breaking the mark set by Green Bay's Cecil Isbell in 1942 with 23. In other games, the Chicaeo Bears beat the Chicago Cardinals 30-14, San Francisco ripped Green nay 48-21 and Pittsburgh came off with a 14-14 tie against Washington. Browns 21, Eagles 14 Quarterback Milt Plum, was Ihp big man for the Browns, scoring twice and then throwing a 48-yard strike to Ray Renfro for the TD that broke a 14-14 tie in the third penoa. While the Eagles were unable to mount any sort of running at- iacK, jimmy Brown padded his league-leading rushing yardage total with 138 yards in 21 carries for Cleveland. Lew Carpenter chipped in with 100 more for the crowns. Norm Van Brock in was ih Eagles' only threat.

Ironically, the Wings haven't beaten the high-flying Canadiens all season but their consistent success against other NHL clubs left Detroit only four points from the top rung. Only two weeks ago, the Wings had a brief stay in the top spot before the surging Canadiens bumped them twice. Since, the Wings rebounded for two victories and a tie to climb back Into con tention.
