YAKIMA, July 17—The status of the Western International league remained quo Monday after all eight teams split weekend bargain bills.
The league-leading Yakima Bears failed to take advantage of runner-up Vancouver's idleness, dividing a pair with Wenatchee.
The Bears squeaked through in the short opener to a 6-5 win with a two-run rally in the final frame, and then dropped an equally tight contest in the nightcap, 5-4.
