Rain Stops WI Play
By the Associated Press
Even a red-hot pennant fight couldn't keep the rain away from Tacoma's Western International league park. As a result, the pace-setters' doubleheader with runner-up Bremerton was postponed yesterday and the two teams take a day's rest today with Tacoma still holding a bare half game lead.
Second division teams monopolized the Sunday play with Victoria and Vancouver not scheduled to play.
Salem jumped on Wenatchee twice 7-0 and 6-5 to climb over the Chiefs into sixth place. Spokane and Yakima divided, Spokane besting the Packers 7-3 but losing an 11-inning nightcap 6-5.
