|Description=<p>Base Ball Club --In compliance with the notice in the last issue of the Times, a goodly number of young men met at the office of Mr. Collins on Saturday evening last for the purpose of organizing a Base Ball Club. An organization was effected with the following officers:</p>
<p>President: A.E. Senkler Vice-President: J.M. Rosenberger Secretary: W.F. Morse Treasurer: Henry Lunkenhiemer</p>
<p>A committee was appointed to prepare bylaws and equipments, and select suitable grounds. Let the "St. Cloud Base Ball Club" be a success.</p>
<p>Note: name quickly changed to the Arctic Base Ball Club. This club was one of the signers of the first state base ball association, the Minnesota State Association of Base Ball Players, on September 4, 1867. The Arctics may have played their first inter-city base ball matches in St. Paul in late September 1867 when they lost two matches (badly) to the North Star club of St. Paul and the Vermilion Club of Hastings.</p>
