White Sox And Giants Retain League Margins By TIM MORIARTY United Press Internationa] The Chicago White Sox and San Francisco Giants, frisky front-run-ners in the major league pennant races, galloped past the Labor Day marker with history and the oddsmakers on their side. During the last 10 years only one American League team (Cleveland in 19551 faltered in the stretch after leading the field on Labor Day. In the National League, the Labor Day pacesetter has appeared in the World Series seven times in the last decade. The '‘quitters” were the Braves in 1956, the Dodgers in 1951, and the Cardinals in 1949. Broadway oddsmakers also feel certain bow that it will be a White Sox-Giants World Series. In their revised quotations, they listed the Chisox as whopping 10-1 favorites for the American League flag and pegged the Giants at 3-1 in the N.L. 'Die odds against the Dodgers and Braves catching Bill Rigney’s sluggers are 5-1. Sox Take Two The White Sox maintained the 414 gam* lead over Cleveland Monday by downing the Kansas City Athletics twice, 2-1 and 13-7, while the Indians swept their holiday twinbill with the Detroit Tigers, 15-14 and 6-5.

In the N.L. race, Sam Jones pitched the Giants to a 4-2 victory over the Cardinals. The Braves tied the Dodgers for second place, three games back of San Francisco, by taking a pair from the Pirates, 5-1 and 4-1, while Los Angeles ripped the Cubs, 7-1, and the Philadelphia Phillies downed the Cincinnati Reds. 64, in single games. Ted Kluszewski had a big hand in both White Sox triumphs. The husky National League castoff singled home a key run in the opener and then drove in five runs with two homers and a sacrifice fly in the nightcap. The Indians won both their games with three-run, ninth-inning rallies. In the opener, Jim Piersail singled home the tying and winning runs off Jim Running after the Indians had trailed by as much as 124. Cleveland used eight pitchers in the wild contest which featured a total of 29 hits, including seven homers. Lepcio Comes Through Ted Lepcio’s three-run homer gave Detroit a 5-2 bulge in the seventh inning of the nightcap but the Indians again bounced back in the ninth, scoring their winning run on Vic Power’s sacrifice fly. Joes struck out nine and scattered seven hits in handcuffing
