That's how much extra the I Lions earned Sunday by clip l 17-16 for their second straight . National Football League , championship. Sunposed to Play Defense The game was a real thril OSC vs. Duke Tonight As Dixie Classic Opens Raleigh. N.C. w Defend- ing champion North Carolina State College f.iccd the finest field In history as the fifth an- Hall, which won the National Tournament last year; Tulane, whose only loss was an upset at the hands of Rice; and ler, matched by only pro play-offs, and the Ironic . part about it was that Doran . was suposed to play defense, and not offense. He was forced Into offensive duties when Leon Hart, Detroit's towering end, suffered a wrenched knee early in the game. With only 2:08 to play ' Doran sped behind Ken Koni, Cleveland defender, and gathered In Bobby Layne's winning touchdown pass. Doran cradled the ball In his arms as he sped across the final money stripe. It was a crushing jolt for the Browns, who led lfl-10 with less than five minutes to go, thanks to three field goals by Lou (The Toe) Groza and a nine yard TD run by full 1 back Chick Jagade. But the Lions, who cut them close during the sea on, proved their clutch ability was no fluke by marching 80 yards in eight pulsating plays. Layne and Doran were the key players In the drive. They combined on three pass plays good for 68 yards. Graham Bottled Up Boiled down, the game was decided in the Lion's favor be cause they had a patting at tack and Cleveland didn't, Otto Graham had one of his worst games In his eight year pro career, completing only two passes In 15 tries for a mere 20 yards. With a crowd of 55,577 and millions of televiewers look ing in, Detroit took a 10-3 lead at halftime. Doak Walker drove across from the one early in the first period and hekicked a 23-yard field goal In the second period. Cleveland, impotent in the first half, was red-hot after in termission and tied the score 10-10 when Jagade capped 51-yard drive by bulling through right guard to score. Then Groza sent Cleveland ahead in the fourth quarter with two field goals 15 yards .and 43 yards. But it wasn't enough. Each winning share for the Lions was $2,424.10 while 654.10. nual Dixie Classic got under , Duke, one of the nation's way at Reynolds Coliseum ! highest scoring clubs.
