Compensation Denied
For Baseball Injury
Gillis, a well known ball
player, went to work for the
Republic Dye company. 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. (164 A 2d, N. Jer

Of course, hay fever is not
always caused by the pollen
of the ragweed, it can be ag
gravated by roses and be call
ed "rose fever." To escape
the irritating effects of Urn
ragweed pollen, many people
travel long distances, only to
have a change in the wind
bring the pollen into areas
where the weed itself is com
paratively rare. .
If this happens the relief;
the sufferer derived at first,
becomes only temporary; the
agency of the regweed will
have searched him out.
To all appearances the rag
weed works only toward one
end - to keep itself busy dust
ing the landscape with clouds
of pollen. It docs a disgustin
ly thorough job of it. Often
the air for many miles may
be nearly saturated.
Nobody has much use for
the ragweed, but it continues
in spite of Ihe fact that it
lives in a world of hate and
constant persecution.
