second place men, except for the

right field position. While Pat

out in front, Charlie Keller of the Yanks was close enough to overtake Mullin in one day's count. Most of the voting for the Nae tional league players was close.

The closest race of both leagues

existed in the voting for the National league team’s third base position. Bob Elliott of Boston was out in front of Whitey Kurowski of St. Louis in the votes of Times readers.

Favorite of the overall voting by Times leaders still was Joe DiMaggio of the Yanks with Lou Boudreau of Cleveland a close second

and Ted Williams, Boston, third.

‘The National league won fourth spot in the overall voting with Mize
