Blocked,
Fake Kick
Giant Key
"DETROIT (AP) A blocked
kick and a fake kick have carried
the New York Giants into a head-.
to-head battle for the Eastern Con
ference championship of the Na
tional Football League.
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.

By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
The pace-setting Montreal Cana
diens clutched a six-game un
beaten string today in the National
Hockey League but still saw the
pesky Detroit Red Wings as
strong challenger.
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.
Detroit won one. and tied one
gainst the Chicago Blackhawks
over the weekend, marking up a
4-3 victory Saturday and pulling
out a 2-2 tie in the last 10 seconds
Sunday night.
Montreal blanked the New York
Hangers 6-0 Saturday and whipped
Boston 4-1 Sunday. Toronto gave
the Bruins a 4-1 licking Saturday
and followed with a 2-0 victory
over New York Sunday night.
In the Detroit game, Glenn Hall,
the Chicago netminder," stopped 38
shots by his former mates.
