According to the Brooklanders, their inner quartet can give infield combinations of other senior teams a few lessons at batting and fielding. The club of the northeastern suburb has some reason for boast- ing, too. Stan Heer, at first; Mike Merkle, at second; Jerry Freeman, at short, and Bill Pettitt, at third, are handling capably most of the drives made by opponents and are clouting at a lively clip. Much of the success of the Brooklanders !hls spring has been due to the efforts of this peppery quartet.
