Bobby Layne led Pittsburgh to its victory over favored Cleve land when he passed 17 yards to Vern Nagler with 41 seconds re maining and then calmly kicked his third extra point of the game, Layne's last-minute dramatics he beat the Giants with only 89 seconds to go last week; took the play away from Cleveland's Milt Plum, who had tossed three TD passes to Ray Renfro. A missed conversion attempt by Lou Groza turned out to be the margin of Pittsburgh's victory.
