That '63 card made me look up Bill White -- not a name like the others, but a very nice career.
And this:
"White graduated from Warren G. Harding High School in Warren, Ohio in 1952, and was both president and salutatorian of his class. Because White was African American, Harding's principal ended the school tradition of the class president dancing with the prom queen (who was white that year)."
Apparently would've been a doctor if the baseball thing didn't work out.
