'Dutchman' A Winner; Eagles Hit By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Something has gone awry. The Cleveland Browns are the unanimous choice to win the Na' tional Football League's Eastern Conference crown. The defending champion Philadelphia Eagles are dead without their great quarter-1 back Norm Van Brocklin. So are the St. Louis Cards without their great running duo of John David Crow and Joe Childress, and with quarterback Sim Etcheverry's sore arm. The Minnesota Vikings probably won't win a game and the Dallas Cowboys may be lucky to get just one. That was the word as late as noon Sunday before the league opened its 42nd season. Today, the tune has changed. The Philadelphia Eagles, with! Van Brocklin now coaching the new Minnesota entry, broke Cleve land's bubble the first time out 27-20. The Cards found that even with a half an arm and a couple of adequate runners in Frank Mestnik and Mai Hammack, they had enough to upset the New York Giants 21-10. The Vikings made the Chicago Bears look like Ihe new team with a 37-13 victory in their first start, while sophomore Dallas won its first game in 14 tries in the NFL, 27-24 over Pittsburgh. Eagles Triumph The Eagles applied the crusher; eariy on me crowns, springing Tim Brown on a 105-yard touch down run with the opening kick off. Sonny Jurgensen, Van Brock lin's successor, then tossed TD passes of 18 and six yards to Bobby Walston and Tom McDon ald, respectively, the former put ting Philly ahead to stay in the second period. Browns' quarterback Milt Plum completed 18 of 30 passes for 329 yards but the Eagles kept the running of Jimmy Brown and Bobby Mitchell in check. Cards 21, NY 10 Etcheverry, whose arm had little to do with his masterful play calling and deccptiveness. threw a five-yard TD toss to Mestnik after Hammack gave the Cards a 1410 lead with a 28-yard TD run. Giants' rookie Larry Hayes' block of a kick and its recovery in the end zone got the New York, ers' only TD. Viks 37, Bears 13 Rookie quarterback Fran Tar kenton, taking over for veteran Goerge Shaw, fired four touch down passes and scored another as the Vikings began their NFL career before 32,236 home fans. Cowboys Victor Rookie placekicker Allen Green, obtained in a three-way trade with Washington and New York, kicked a 27-yard game-winning field goal In the final second after Eddie LcBaron. in the final two minutes, guided the Cowboys on 8 75-yard TD drive Lions Upend GB Nick Pietrosante scored both Detroit touchdowns after punts by Yale Lary had set the Pacers deep in their own territory. The second was on an II -yard pass from Earl Morrall. Jim Taylor scored the Packer touchdown in the first four minutes.
