Every year for the past 10 the Brooks have always managed to upset the top spotters. Don't sell the club from across the bridge short Sunday against the Sheamen.
 The fans are amazed that the Brooks haven't won more than two ball games. They have an all-star array but are weak in the box. Ben Yokza, Jim Piersall. Vic Radzevich, Hank DoneSky. "Fresco" Thompson, Bud Curley, Jack Reardon and Joe 1 Smith comprise the combination on which Manager Bill Magro is count ing on to spring the upset of the season Sunday.
