Ne1u York And Eagles Tie,
Packers Smear Cleveland

NEW YORK, Nov. 12.-RLThe
New York Giants, usually a team
that sticks to old-fashioned line
bucking football took to the air
today to tie the favored Phila-
delphia Eagles, 21-21, and stay in
the running for the eastern divi-
sion championship of the National
Football league.
Trailing by two touchdowns at
the start of the last quarter, the
Giants stunned se1lout crowd of
33,248 at Shibe Park in Philadal-
phia by tying the score on two
long aerials with only a minute
to play.
In the last go seconds the Giants
intercepted an Eagle pass and
apparently scored an upset tri-
umph on Ken Strong's field goal
from the Eagle 43. The three
points were nullified, however,
because of an outside penalty.
Strong's next field goal try from
the 4S was blocked. The Eagles
first touchdown came on Steve
Van Buren's 97-yard return of
kickoff, the longest run of the day.
The deadlock dropped the Eagles
from a tie for first place in the
eastern division. Washington
took over undisputed possession
by whipping the Brooklyn Tigers,
10 to 0, before 20,4O4 at Ebbets
Field. A 71-yard pass, Sammy
Baugh to Bob Seymour, won the
game in the last quarter after the
Tigers had lost the ball on the
Washington six-inch line.

have been playing understudy to
Wake Forest in the Southern con-

took over the Xingfish role today
as the result of Saturdays $40
humping Of the previously unde-
feated Deacons.
While Duke was taking on a Sc
ries of top-ranking outside elevens
during the 1914 campaign, Wake
Forest concentrated on conference
competition and entered the Duke
game with a perfect record of five
family successes and outside tri-
umphs over Georgia and Miami.
Duke teed off with a win over
Richmond in September, then left
the loop to lose to foul nationally
prominent foes-Penn, Navy, N. c.

that the Dukes were on the re.
bound came week ago when they
blasted Georgia Techs spotless
slate at Durham.
Wake Forests civilian squad
did not enter the Duke engage
ment as favorite despits its all
winning record, for the Blue Dew
lis had been impressive even in
losing four times to gridiron giants,
but the size of Dukes victory mar
gin yesterday was unexpected.
Wake Forest, striving fol- a bowl
bid and the schools first confer
ence championship, went after the
Dukes in determined fashion early
in the first period, driving to the
six before the Blue Devils held.
A few moments later George Clark,
Dukes fast-stepping back, raced a
punt back "a yards for touch
down. This appeared to knock the
Deacons off their stride and they
were never able to get back into
the game again.
saturdays biggest surprise with

furnished by William and Mary

North Cardinals V-12ers, recently
reinforced by Navy transfess from
Duke, to a scoreless deadlock.
