The employees of this company formed a baseball team call ing themselves the Republic Dye Baseball club. The club was admitted into the "X" league. The formation of the team and its admission into the league was initialed by the employees. The employer paid the league entrance lee, the cost of uniforms, bats and balls. The uniforms bore the name of the company. Gillis was injured while plaving ball for the company baseball team. He claims workmen's compensation for this injury. Gillis contended that, although the games were nlaycd after regular working hours, the activity was of mu tual benefit to his employer and to himself. THE COURT HELD: The court held that the recreation al activity was not an incident of employment and. therefore, the injury sustained by the employee did not arise out of and in the course of the cm Dlovment. The court further held that the employee's par ticipation in the ball game was a Durelv personal act from which, as between him self and his employer, he alone benefited. Gillis' claim was denied.
