From the 1912 Chillicothe Cresset
     Harry Hayden was elected captain and Harry Johnson, manager of the baseball team. South End Park was obtained for the Ball Grounds. The boys practiced with an earnest will, but the team did not prove the success which they had expected it to be. This was because two or three of the stars devoted most of their time to track work
     The first game was played with Brookfield. The C.H.S. team had un-sufficient practice and was outclassed, but we kept the score in the neighborhood of a tie.
      The next game with the Normal was also unsuccessful to us on account of their more instructive training. Next year we hope to have a better team as the line-up will be nearly the same.

Line Up: Hayden, Johnson, Phillips, Thomas Line, Campbell, S. Tompkins, S. Swetland, Donoho, B. Johnson, C. Ralston
