Text	The amateur fraternity of Brooklyn will be glad to learn that early in the summer a new and extensive ball field will be placed at the services of amateur clubs in , near Sixth avenue and Fifteenth street, adjoining the tracks of the Coney Island Railroad. This field, in addition to the extensive parade ground, located half a mile distant on the southeasterly side of the Park, will provide accommodation for nearly fifty amateur clubs; and as the Park Commission have adopted a rule which will exclude the vagabond crowd, who do not work by day and steal at night, from occupying these grounds, a chance will be afforded for all reputable clubs and parties made up for ball matches for enjoying their favorite game without expense. Some very interesting contests may be expected at the Park this coming season, and the Sunday Mercury will pay special attention to this class of games.
