Baltimore And Cleveland Near League Titles By EARL WRIGHT United Press Sport* Writer The Cleveland Browns, who have missed only one championship game in 11 years, and the Baltimore Colts, who never have played in one, will clash for the 1957 National Football League title if they win next Sunday. Ceveland can win the Eastern Division title for the seventh time in eight tries by whipping**the Lions at Detroit. A Cleveland victory over the Lions, parlayed with a Baltimore triumph over the 49ers at San Francisco, would give Baltimore the Western crown. Each of the five leaders has two more games but Cleveland and Baltimore victories next Sunday would give them unbeatable leads The Browns took a IVj-game lead Sunday by shutting out the Chicago Cardinals, 31-0. The 49ers gave Cleveland a big assist by upsetting the New York Giants, defending league and Eastern Division champions, 27-17. A victory or a tie against the Lions or the Giants Dec. 15 at New York would give ’Cleveland the Eastern title. Celts Beat Rams The Colts remained a game ahead of Detroit and San Francisco in the Western race by defeaitng the Los Angeles Rams, 31-14, before a record Baltimore pro football crowd of 52.060. Detroit kept within range of Baltimore with an 18-6 Thanksgiving Day triumph over the Green Bay Packers. The Washington Redskins beat the Chicago Bears 14-3, as Eddie Le Baron threw a 10-yard touchdown pass to Jim Podoley and set up Ed Sutton’s four-yard scoring dash. In Sunday’s other game, Sonny Jurgensen's seven-yard pass to Dick Bielski gave the Philadelphia Eagles a 7-6 victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers. Cleveland missed a division title last year for the first time in four campaigns in the All-America conference and seven in the NFL when it wound up with a 5-7 record. If the Browns win the 1957 Eastern- title, it will be the best NFL comeback since the old Cleveland Rams (now Los Angeles). won the Western crown in 1945 after stumbling to a 4-6, mark in 1944. O’Connell Sparked Win Tommy O’Connell threw touchdown passes of 23 and 65 yards to Ray Renfro and set up Lew Carpenter's 10-yard scoring run as the Browns romped at Cleveland against the Cardinals. Lenny Moore scored three times for Baltimore He caught scoring passes of three and 50 yards from Johnny Unitas and ran 23 for a touchdown. Unitas also threw a 10yard scoring pass to Ray Berry to rSise his season total of touchdown passes to 22, high for the league.
