The 1942 baseball team is trying hard for a good team. They are having tough competition but hope for lots of vic- tories. Under the leadership of coach McKinney they are fighting hard. We will be unable to put all the games in the annual so we will keep the games up to date until printing time. The Republic team traveled over to Fremont to lose a tight game by a score of 9-8.The Republic team outplayed the other team by making only one error in the whole game, but the other team had better hitting ability. The big mo- ment for the Republic team was in the first inning, when Foreman, second sacker, hit a home run with two men on. Traveling to Emerson the Republic team lost another tight game by the score of 8-7. Again the Rams only made one error in the whole game, but the Emerson Eagles had better hitting ability. There were only two hits made by the Republic team in the whole game, and they were made by Donald Shelburne, center fielder. Traveling to Claremont, the Republic nine lost their third game by the score of 5-3. Both teams were on even terms but the Republic nine seem to have all the tough breaks. They made their three runs in the 6th inning. The first run was made by Monte Somerset who made a nice slide to home base to make the score 5-1. The next two runs were made when John Theo- bald got up to bat and hit out a double to bring in two men. The game thus ended with the score 5-3 in favor of Clare- mont.
