## Discrepancy

THE FLIGHT RETUNED TO CUN AND AN UNEVENTFUL SINGLE ENGINE LANDING.  THE NR 1 ENGINE STALLED AND FAILURE SHORTLY AFTER TAKE-OFF.  THE FLIGHT CREW HEARD THE LEFT ENGINE POPPING AND FELT A SHUDDER DURING THE CLIMB OUT.  THIS WAS ACCOMPANIED BY ENGINE PARAMETERS ROLLING BACK.  THE NR 1 ENGINE WAS SHUT DOWN, PER THE QRH.  CORRECTIVE ACTION: MAINTENANCE FOUND METAL IN THE TAILPIPE UPON ARRIVAL BACK AT THE GATE.  THE ENGINE WAS REPLACED.
