— r— Browns Handed First Loss Os Season Sunday By EARL WRIGHT United Preu International “Stop booing poor old Charley and bring on those Baltimore Colts.” That was the New York Giants’ slogan today as they gloated over a 21-17 Sunday triumph that snapped Cleveland’s five-game winning streak and left them only a game behind the Browns in the National Football League’s Eastern Division. Next Sunday the Giants entertain the league’s only remaining undefeated team, the galloping Colts who crushed the Green Bay Packers 56-0. Baltimore, aided by the Rams* 41-35 victory over the Chicago Bears before 100,474 at Los Angeles, took a two-game lead in the Western Division. Who’s “poor old Charley?’’ That’s Charley Conerly, 37 going on 38, the grey-haired Mississippi cotton farmer and ex-Marine who has played quarterback for the Giants for 11 years. The fans booed Charley at the Polo Grounds, they boo him now at Yankee Stadium, and 78,404 stunned Clevelanders felt like giving him a record razzing Sunday in their big Municipal Stadium. Fires Touchdown Passes Because it was old Charley, hammered and pounded as he has been for so many years by Cleveland’s aggressive defenders, who fired the three scoring passes that handed the Browns their first 1958 defeat. The Giants, 10-point underdogs and playing without all-league halfback Frank Gifford, kept the Browns from taking a three-game lead and breaking the Eastern race wide open. Hugh McElhenny’s 32-yard run in the final four minutes gave the Forty-Niners a 24-21 victory over the Detroit Lions before 59,213 San Francisco fans; Norm Van Brocklin’s one-yard toss to Dick Bielski with 17 seconds to play . gave the Philadelphia Eagles a 21-21 tie with the Cardinals at | Chicago, and Bobby Layne’s two ■ touchdown passes paced the Steelers to a 24-16 victory over the Washington Redskins at Pittsburgh. But Conerly produced Sunday’s key NFL story as a record sixgame attendance of 326,431 shot the pro league toward a crowd mark for the seventh straight year. Sunday’s Bears - Rams crowd was the second largest individual throng in league history, topped by the 102,368 attendance for the 1957 Rams-Forty-Niners game at Los Angeles. • Giant Defense Stiffens With Don Heinrich, New York’s other quarterback, sidelined with an ankle injury, Conerly had to go all the way. And things looked bright for the Browns when Ken Konz stole one of "poor old Charley’s passes and raced 46 yards Ito give them a 17-7 halftime lead. Two minutes before that, Jim Brown, the league's top rusher and scorer, raced 58 yards to score. But it was a different ■ story in the second half when the New York defense kept th? Browns from crossing their own 40. " Conerly, who had fired a 39yard scoring pass to Bob Schnelker in the second quarter, climaxed a 77-yard third period drive with a 15-yard touchdown heave to Alex Webster. The New Yorkers then got to keep the ball when their punter, Don Chandler, was roughed by Paul Wiggin and Conerly threw 10 yards to Webster for the winning touchdown early in the final period. Second To Baugh Conerly’s three touchdown passes gave him a total of 140, moved him ahead of Sid Luckman of the Bears (139) and left him second only to Sammy Baugh of the Redskins (187) among NFL touchdown tossers Brown, who averaged 163 rushing yards in his first five games, was “held” to 113 in 13 tries while Mel Triplett of the Giants gained 116. Brown now has 928, only 218 short of Steve Van Buren’s season record of L 14The New York defense probably faces a stiffer task next Sunday in a Baltimore club that has averaged 39 points a game. John Unites of the Colts threw scoring passes to Lenny Moore and Alan Ameche Sunday before he was taken to a hospital with a possible cracked rib. George Shaw replaced Unites and threw scoring passes to Jim Mutscheller and Bert Rechi char during a cold rain before 51,333 fans. Bams Help Colts The Colts owe a vote of thanks to the Rams in general and Jon Arnett in particular for helping them boost their lead to two games. Tom Wilson scared three for the Rams but it was Arnett who really wrecked the Bears. Jon rushed for 90 yards,

gained 118 on punt returns and 71 on passes and was described as “one of the greatest of all time in football” by Coach George Halas of the Bears. Coach Jim Lee Howell of the Giants, a staunch supporter of Conerly during years of criticism, praised Triplett and his defense at Cleveland. “We were very pleased with Triplett's play,” Howell said. “Our strategy was to stop Brown, Ray Renfro (Cleveland’s flanker back) and Bob Mitchell (the left
