Chicago Bears Resume Winning Streak

Nagurski Back in Line; Packers Beat Lions

Chicago, Nov. 13.

The Chicago Bears, hot pre-season favourites for the National Professional Football League championship, made a smashing return to the victory column today after three successive defeats to inflict a severe drubbing on the world champion Washington Redskins by a score of 31-7.

Aided by the return to action of Bronco Nagurski, who was badly crippled weeks ago when the Bears met the Chicago Cardinals the Bruins today could not be stopped, ripping great holes in the Washington defence to pile up touchdown after touchdown.
