I compared Merril's anthology with the Asimov and Greenberg
anthology that covered 1957, but was published in 1989. The
stories that the two anthologies have in common:

"You Know Willie" by Cogswell
"Let's Be Frank" by Aldiss
"Game Preserve" by Phillips

The Asimov and Greenberg anthology contains two Asimov stories:
"Strikebreaker" and "A Loint of Paw", but not "Let's Get Together".
I guess Asimov didn't think much of it either.

Here are some of the stories Merril could have picked, but didn't:

"Omnilingual" by H. Beam Piper
"The Mile-Long Spaceship" by Kate Wilhelm
"Call Me Joe" by Poul Anderson
"The Cage" by A. Bertram Chandler
