Photo shows Williams, grabbing Doerr's arm, while Doerr holds baseball bat. Typed below the image reads, "Chicago, May 13- Draft May Serparate 'Hot' Red Sox Hitters- At today's White Sox game, Ted Williams (left), Red Sox left fielder, tests the good right arm of Bobby Doerr, Boston second baseman, who will be an extra strong cog in his teams offense if the former is taken in his draft board's next call- and there's that possibility. Williams was American League batting camp last year with a .406 average, and Doerr is off to a good start this season with a current .400, second in the league."
