I would recommend Healy & McComas "Adventures in Time and Space" aka
"The Modern Library Giant: Great Science Fiction Stories."  Which is a
little spotty but has some really good stuff.  Even more I recommend
"Science Fiction Hall of Fame Vol. I" ed. by Robert Silverberg.  They
are the two best anthologies of short stories I know.
