Brooklyn, Chicago White SOx Are Big League Sensations
By LAWTON CARVER United Press Stan Correspondent

New York, April 27.-(UP)- The Dodgers and the White Sox outfits lightly regarded in pre-sea- son dope. are causing the head aches now in the major leagues.
 The Dodgers are winners of i've in a row and eight out of 10 and have a tremendous batting attack and good pitching. In the Amer ican the White Sox are one notch out of first place.
 Brooklyn used ancient Tom Zachary yesterday to take all the fight out of the Braves. When old Tom finally wilted the Dodgers sent in Leonard, who stopped a threat ened uprising and went on to 5 to 4 win, which left them in first place.
 Philadelphia and New York play ed to their second tie of the season to 5, in 13 innings.
 Pitchers for neither side took any credit. The Phillies used three against four for the Giants, with Hubbell of the Giants among the first to get knocked odt.
 AAOhtO "CAC dAtAuCu CNCHly between the two clubs. John Moore got a pair for the Phillies and Joe Moore and Bartel of the Giants each added one. The Phillies added a triple play by way of variety.
 The Cubs won over the Reds in a game enlivened by fist fight be- tween Manager Chuck Dresser of the Reds and Tex Carlton, Chicago pitcher.
 A half dozen players joined in the fracas before Empires and non- combatants could restore order. The Cubs went on to a to 2 vic- tory.
 The Cardinals wobbly contenders for the world title they now hold, were extended for Il innings be- fore they beat the Pirates, 3 to 2.
 In the American league the White Sox moved into second place by whipping the Browns, II to A. on the six hit pitching of Lyons coupled with five home runs.
 Meanwhile the Indians were strengthening their hold on first place by defeating Detroit. II to 3, on homers by Hale and Campbell and a triple by Averill with the bases full.
 The Red SoX, who made a first place race for awhile, continued to falter and lost to Washington. 10 to 5. Lefty Grove of the Sox was driven from the mound.
