GRID GIANTS
 HELPED WHEN
 LEADERS LOSE
By GLEN PERKINS Limited Press Stan Correspondent

Limited Press Stan Correspondent
 New York, Nov. 27 = CUP0 The New York Giants, with timely as- sist from their old enemies the Chi- cago Bears, were ready to light It out today with the Washington Reds skins for the Eastern Division Na~ tional League Football Champions ship.
 The Giants, eyeing the scoreboard gleefully, gained a hard earned to o triumph over the Brooklyn Tigers at the Polo Grounds yesterday, while the Bears were knocking the Philadelphia Eagles out of the lead with 28 to upset victory in Phil- adelphia. Meanwhile, the Redskins kept pace with the Giants by de- feating the visiting Boston Tanks IA tor.
 That combination of victories and defeats set the stage for cham pionship meeting when the Giants and Redskins close out their regular schedule with a home and home meeting. The teams play at the Polo Grounds next Sunday, at Washing ton the following Sunday and will determine the site for third game, If necessary, by the flip of coin.
 The Eagles, by winning both of their remaining games, next Sunday against Brooklyn and the following week against Cleveland, could edge in ahead of the Redskins and Giants provided they divide their two games.
 After Bill Paschal smashed over from the one for the Giant touch down yesterday, the battered Brook lyn line held on each succeeding downfield drive and the Tigers near ly negotiated an upset themselves by opening up with two marches in the final period. One of them died on the seven yard line, the other a few minutes later on the Giant six. Frank Sachse of the Tigers sparked both marches with long, accurate passes.
 Although assessed ITO yards in 9 penalties for a league record, the Bears dominated play from the start and never gave the Eagles a chance. Henry Margarita scored the first touchdown in the first period on an II yard end sweep and Jim Fordham bucked over from one foot out, two minutes later after an in- tercepted pass set up the play. Sid Luckman passed to Rudy Smeja for the third Bear touchdown and Gary Famiglietti scored the other on a plunge. The lone Eagle touchdown came in the final period when Tom Miller intercepted Luckman pass and went 35 yards to score.
 The deciding Redskin touchdown came in the third period after Bos- ton had tied the score at 2 to 2. Sammy Baugh passed to Wilbur Moore from the 13 for the counter. Washington had scored first in the opening period on a 70-yard ground drive led by Fullback Frank Akin, who made the touchdown.
 Green Bay, with the Western Di- vision title clinched, let down lit-' tie at Chicago. but still had Suffi- cient momentum to beat the Card Pitts 35 to 20. Don Hutson caught two touchdown passes and made five conversions for IT points.
 Frankie Sinkwich threw three touchdown passes in a 26 to IA De- troit victory over the Cleveland Rams.

RUBBER, SCOVILL' BENRUS FIRST LR. A. WINNERS
By JOHN A. CLUNEY

One would think that the commit tee in charge, cocahes, players and game officials purposely got to- gether to make yesterdays opening basketball triple header of the I. R. A. for the 1944-45 season as ex- citing as possible. Some 500 fans found their way to the YMCA gym for the first games of the season, and here's what they saw, if in time for the first of three games: Benrus defeated Waterbury Com panies, 27-26; Scovill ERA single pointed U. s. Time 25-24 and U. s. Rubber outpointed Chase Brass and Copper 8 to 27, because Chet Wo- jack scored 1T points for USR and Chase missed "a million shots un- der and near the hoops.
 Benrus and Waterbury Compan- ies game was as close as the ends of the clock at half past six; for at half time it was all even, each team with II points; and Benrus 23-2O starting the last quarter. Thomas and Levine got 21 points for the winners; Freddie Coelho scoring 10 for Long George McNamara's hoop hopefuls. Score:

 Paced by Fullback Jim Cahill, 175-pound naval trainee who orig inally learned his football at B. O.. the Holy Cross Crusaders scored thrice in the second period and twice in the third-then withStood dramatic last quarter aerial bid by their opponents.
 Perhaps the outstanding exhibt- tion of the game was that of Bos- ton Colleges 145-pound quarterback Bobby Owen. In the final quarter he completed eight out of eight passes to carry B. c. T yards to the Holy Cross one when halfback Jim Elliott went over for his teams first score. Then B. c. again marched down field through the air and Elliott repeated for the second and final touchdown. Tn all, Owen completed IA out of 16 passes.
