Giants Clinch Eastern Title, Packers Coast By NORMAN MILLER UPI Sport* Writer The New York Giants’ “fabulous old men" are Eastern Division champions of the National Football League for the second straight season and they're itching for another shot at the Green Bay Packers because they're confident "this time it’ll be different.’’ The Giants made, the NFL playoff for the 13th time Sunday when they edged the Chicago Bears, 26-24, in a fiercely-fought game high-lifted by fisticuffs, four field goals by Don Chandler, and the brilliant defensive play that has become New York’s trademark. Few at the start of this season ever figured that the Giants would win it, much less beat the Packers into the title playoff. With 10 key players whose pro experience totaled nearly 100 years, the world was out that the Giants were “getting old.” Fool Many People But they fooled a lot of people by winning for the fifth time in the past seven seasons with much the same personnel. And the mighty Packers probably will have to battle to the last Sunday ’WK the season, exactly neversipg last! season’s order of clinching. The Packers clung to their orie-‘ game lead in the Western Division by trouncing the Los Angeles Bams, 41-10, while the secondplace Detroit Lions kept pace with a 21-14 rallying victory over the Baltimore Colts. In Sunday’s other games, the Philadelphia Eagles came from behind to beat the Washington Redskins, 37-14; the Dallas Cowboys upset the Cleveland Browns, 45-21; the San Francisco Forty Niners drubbed the Minnesota Vikings, 35-12, and the Pittsburgh Steelers beat the St. Louis Cardinals, 19-7. Field Goal Wins Chandler’s 16-yard field goal in r the sixth minute of the final period J provided the Giants with the margin for the win which boosted thiedr season s record to an insur- > mountable 10-2. Chandler earlier had kicked field goals of 26, 47 , and 37 yards. v ! The Bears came storming back ! after Chandler’s fourth kick and narrowed the Giants’ lead to two ? points on a < 25-yard touchdown pass from Billy Wade to Angelo Coia. But the giants ran out the clock on the rushes of Alex Webster and Joe Morrison and a 50yard punt by Chandler. A 15-yard penalty against defensive end Ed O’Bradovich of the Bears for punching Phil King of the Giants were leading only 20-17 at the time and the penalty put them on the Bears' 29. Chandler kicked his third field goal a few plays later. — Hornung Returns Paul Hornung returned to fulltime duty with the Packers for the first time in seven weeks and scored their first touchdown against the Rams by catching a 30-yard pass from Bart Stair. Jim Taylor bucked over for two scores, Starr threw another short touchdown pass to Ron Kramer and Jerry Kramer kicked two field goals as the Packers regained their winning habit after their Thanksgiving Day loss at Detrot. Reserve quarterback Earl Mor-’ rail came off the bench in the final period and engineered two touchdown drives that gave the Lions their victory over the Colts. Morrall passed 11 yards to Nick Pietrosante for the winning score with less than two minutes remaining. Johnny Unitas passed for both Baltimore touchdowns in the fourth period, the second sailing 49 yards to Jimmy Orr. At Dallas, Amos Marsh rushed" for 117 yards and Don Penkins for 92 to supplement Don Meredith's, two touchdown passes in the Cow boys’ suprisingly easy win over the Browns. Jimmy. Brown ofCleveland was heTd to 29 rushing yards.— Eagles Beat ’Skins The Eaglej, trailing by two ~ touchdowns irt the second period, sprang to life when Tim Brown ran back a IclcTobff 99 yards and beat Washington. Brown scored

Dave Ragan Winner Al West Palm Beach WEST PALM BEACH, Fla, (UPI) — Dave Ragan won the West Palm Beach Open Sunday on the second hole of a playoff match with Doug Sanders. The Orlando, Fla., pro’s 277 total earned him $2,800. The match went into extra holes on the last hole of the final round when Ragan’s ball landed in a tree, costing him a penalty stroke and his one-stroke lead over Sanders, of Ojai, Calif. A tree on the 10th hole of the final round cost Sanders a threestroke lead and put Ragan in position to win the $20,000 match. Sanders hanked his ball into a tree and wound up the 10th with a double bogie. The game was evened up when Ragan birdied the 10th and Dow Finsterwald eagled the hole.

Southern Cal Beats Irish, Navy Winner By United Press International Four Southeastern Conference powers and the Big Ten’s University of Wisconsin have been installed as the favorites in post season bowl classics —the annual grand windup of the collegs football season.
There’ll be no bowl for Navy this year but the Middies are in orbit anyhow after Saturday’s 3414 thrashing of Army for an unprecedented fourth straight triumph over their service rivals. But even without Navy to add extra glamour to the bowl pairings, the various promoters have managed to put together one of the most competitive lineups of recent years—if the oddsmakers are an accurate barometer. No team involved in the four, big ones—the Rose, Sugar, Orange and Cotton bowls—is more than a touchdown favorite and the outlock for close games prevails throughout the lesser bowl pairings. Wisconsin Favored Wisconsin has been installed as a five-point favorite otter unbeaten and untied Southern California in the Rose, Mississippi is a seven-point choice over Arkansas in the Sugar, Alabama is 4'/a points over Oklahoma in the Orange, LSU is three points over Texas in the Cotton and Georgia Tech is 6Vz over Missouri in the Bluebonnet. Other bowl pairings include Villanova vs. Oregon State in the Liberty Bowl and Miami of Ohio vs. Houston in the Tangerine. Gotham Bowl promoters are still looking for an opponent for Miami of Florida and Gator Bowl officials have yet to announce a foe for Penn State. Mississippi, Alabama and Georgia Tech officially moved into bowls Saturday after winding up their seasons with victories." Mississippi- had a "squeaker” before toppling Mississippi State, 13-6; Alabama routed Auburn, 38-0, and Georgia Tech whipped Georgia, 37-6. Trojans Beat Irish Southern California,, the nation’s top-ranked team, displayed its exceptional speed--with a 25-0 triumph over Notre Dame and thus completed its first perfect gridiron season since 1932. Fullback Ben Wilson scored the first two touchdowns for Southern California, which will go into the Rose Bowl against Wisconsin with a 10-0 record. ’ A crowd of 102,000, including President Kennedy, saw Navy take complete command of Army in the annual service classic. Navy scored first on a “gift” safety but then turned loose Roger Staubach, who’ scored “on funs of 21 and three yards and threw touchdown passes to Neil Henderson and Nick Markoff. The performance earned Staubach a rating of “phenomonal" from President Kennedy. Monte Deere’s three touchdown passes led Oklahoma to a 37-6 triumph over Oklahoma S3ate, Jack Concannon threw three scorjng . passes—m —Boston College’s 48-12 romp over Holy Cross and Texas Christian downed Southern Methodistr 14-9, on the strength of two touchdowns by Tommy Crutcher. Lafayette Coach To Undergo Operation LAFAYETTE, Ind. (UPI) — Marian Crawley, one of Indiana’s most prominent high school basketball coaches, is scheduled to be hospitalized Tuesday for. “major surgery.” Crawley, who piloted three teams to the state title, was expeeted tobe out of action atfeast two weeks.

More Os Baseball Trades Expected NEW YORK (UPI) — Don’t go away, there are more trades to come. That was the word today from major league baseball officials who <a total of 16 deals last week before-winding up their annual winter meetings here on Saturday night. Casey Stengel of the New York Meis, General Manager Fred Haney of the Los Angeles Angels and delegations representing the Philadelphia Phillies and Boston Red Sox were among the last to leave. “I stuck around because I thought we might still do something,” said Stengel, before boarding an airplane for St. Petersburg, Fla., to witness some games in the Florida Instructional League. “From all I hear, the clubs aren’t through trading,” Ole Case added. In the last deal made before the end of the sessions Saturday, the Mets traded right-handed pitcher Bob Miller to the Los Angeles Dodgers for second baseman Larry Burright and first baseman Tim Harkness. Before departing for their home sites, major league officials awarded the 1963 All-Star Game to Cleveland for next July 9 and officially adopted the player development contract to assist minor league clubs.
