Here, photographically, is a record of the 1940 All-Star game, played yesterday at Sportsmans Park. At the left the two managers get together and Bill McKechnie (left), Cincinnati's gift to the National League, seems to be getting in the last work against Joe Cronin, the Red Sox contribution to the American League lineup. Bill had the last word all the way.
Stan Musial and Ted Williams (right), standout hitters in the National and American Leagues, respectively, got together for a little chit chat before the game. Musial turned out to be senior circuit's hero in a losing cause while the "Splendid Splinter" walked in his only time at bat.
