TACOMA, Aug. 28—Bremerton Bluejackets showed no signs of losing their big lead atop the Western International League standings as they took both ends of a double-header from the Tacoma Tigers, 8-4 and 8-3.
The Tars sent eight runners across the plate in the second inning of the opener for all their runs and then scored six times in the ninth frame of the nightcap to turn a 3-2 deficit into victory.

VICTORIA, Aug. 28—The Vancouver Capilanos and Victoria Athletics exchanged a pair of 7-0 games today, with Larry Manier tossing a seven-hit shutout for Vancouver in the opener, and Frank Logue doing the same in the night game for Victoria.
The A's only got five hits in the night game, but made good use of the offerings. With two out in the third, Charlie Balassi blasted a 3-1 pitch over the centre field fence. Vic Buccola walked, Buddy Hjelmaa booted a double play ball and Jack Palmer was safe and then Archie Wilson walked. Babe Jensen then singled in two runs and Hunk Anderson was replaced on the mound with Bob Snyder, who was greeted by a line single down the third base by Dick Morgan to bring in a fourth run.
In the seventh, a walk, another error by Hjelmaa and a hit batter loaded the bases before Morgan cleared them with a double.
In the opener, Bill Brenner welcomed lefthander Wally Eads to the Western International League with a first-inning, grand-slam homer. It was the only hit Eads allowed in the inning. He walked three, hit a batter and tossed a wild pitch to bring in one run before that.

SALEM, Aug. 28—Spokane Indians nosed out the Salem Senators, 3-1, tonight behind the fine twirling of Bill Werbowski. All the scoring came in the last inning. Bob Hedington's double, Werbowski's single, a triple by George Valine and a single by Leo Thomas scored the Spokane runs.

YAKIMA, Aug. 28—The lagging Yakima Packers won their second successive 11-inning game from Wenatchee Chiefs, this time, 4-3. Bill Wilson's 32nd home run with a mate aboard tied the count in the sixth and forced extra time.
The game was featured by a battle between Fern Paredes of Wenatchee and Gene Gaviglio. The fracas started when Gaviglio sneaked in behind first base to pick Parades off. The latter responded with a hard left hook to his tormentor's nose, which put Gaviglio out of action.

Yakima ............. 003 000 000 01—4 11 2
Cronin, Stedman (7) and Dalrymple, Gardner (7); D. Drilling and Constantino.
