Description

The Cedar Rapids Times, Sept. 8, 1870, under the headline "Base Ball" reports that the Actives of Clinton beat the Westerns of Keokuk 69-23 on Friday, then beat the "Champion club of Iowa" at Des Moines 23-20.

It is unclear from the article whether "Champion" was the name of the club, or whether they were playing a club that claimed to be champion. Probably the latter, as the Actives of Clinton had defeated the Crescents of Des Moines and won the state baseball tournament held in Des Moines Aug. 31-Sept. 2, 1870.

The Chicago Tribune, July 6, 1870 reports that the Active of Clinton beat the Franklins of Mt. Vernon 43-25 on July 4th.

Clinton Semi-Weekly Herald, July 28, 1870 reports on a junior club in Clinton called the Actives. Perhaps the junior wing of the same club?
