NEW YORK, Dec. 7.-Only
the New York Giants, one of the
weaker National Football League
elevens, stood between the De-
troit Lions and another Western
Division title today.
The Lions, winners of the 1852
crown, clinched at least a tie for
the division lead yesterday by

If yesterdays performance by
the Giants means anything, De-

victims in Cleveland's 18th
straight victory as the Eastern
Division champions compiled
their highest score in four years,
62-14. The championship game
is scheduled for December 81 on
the field of the Western Divi-
sion leader.
SteelerS Down Cards.
In other games, the Pittsburgh
Steelers downed the winless Chi

Doak Walker and Bobby Layne
were the big guns in the Detroit

score. The New York Giants shut
them out that year, IA to 0.
The question of Head Coach
Curly Lambeau's return has not
been broached. 1t generally was
taken for granted that he, like
certain, well known general,
would return. But the veterans
future status was doubtful early
in the season, when injuries hit
the squad and the going was
rough. Financially independent,
Curly didn't want to come back
unless he had a winner, and it
is no secret that Owner George
Marshall insisted on a winner,
too.
Lambeau Praises Club.
Lambeau was high in his
praise of the Redskins yesterday,
terming it the finest team per-
formance of the season.
II couldn't single out one in
dividual effort as being better
than any other" he said. every
man did his job both ways
extensively and defensively-for
so minutes. It was the kind of
team play we've been striving for
all season."
Marshall, congratulating the
coach, also paid tribute to the
21,579 fans who sat through the
afternoon-long rain to see the
Redskins win. He thought the
players caught the fans enthusi-
aSm. When Marshall congratu-
lated his coach on tying for Sec
ond place, Curly snorted.
Promises Seventh Victory.
Seven and four-that's what
we want now," Lambeau said. II
told you at the beginning of the
season we'd win seven games and
we will"
Win or lose next week, the
1854 Redskins job is Curly's if
he wants it, and, in his present
mood, the one-time Green Bay
coach probably would take it
without pay.
