	1955 Topps Baseball Cards
		The 1955 Topps set is a real challenge and, just recently, I have been able to finally complete this colorful issue.
		The latest 1955 Topps PSA Population Report indicates that 7 is the lowest population for a graded PSA 8 card.
		The 1955 Topps set is the perfect set to practice the art of grading before you submit your cards.

	Baseball
		Baseball is played on a large scale in Latin America, Japan, and other places besides the United States, but it is in the United States that it thrives most both as a participant's and spectator's sport.
		Baseball's popularity is in part a result of the fact that almost every American boy plays the game at one time or another, and the lore of the game is intertwined with American life.
		Many baseball authorities believe that Koufax might have established himself as the greatest pitcher ever, but he was forced to retire because of a painful and chronic arthritic condition afflicting his pitching arm.

	1955 Genco Champion Baseball pitch bat coin operated arcade game (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		Description: Champion Baseball, Genco, 6/55, two players, small manikin players on the playfield, painted lacquer playfield, uses fifteen 1.5" plastic balls instead of steel balls (same ball as used in Genco's 2 Player Basketball).
		Champion Baseball was basically the forerunner of the more sucessful, smaller, and more advanced 1956 Genco Hi-Fly Baseball.
		Champion baseball has a much larger cabinet that Genco's 1956 Hi Fly baseball, and this makes the game more fun (there is more physical "ball park" space to hit the ball).

	The 1955 Bowman Baseball Set: Often Overlooked, Brown-Bordered Beauties
		The 1955 Bowman baseball set is a strange set, not only in design, but in the content of the cardboard.
		While the 1955 Topps set is truly packed with stars and beautiful in design (there's no question that it takes the cake as the best set produced in 1955), the 1955 Bowman set is unfortunately overlooked.
		While the 1955 Topps set certainly has the edge in terms of star power (due to great cards like the Sandy Koufax rookie, the Roberto Clemente rookie, the Harmon Killebrew rookie, a Ted Williams card, and so on), the Bowman does include a few major keys that are certainly noteworthy.

		This is probably just as well, for the manner in which several of the Eskimos have acted in the past 24 hours exposes them as shallow thinkers.
		This clique attempted to defy a Western Canada Baseball League agreement that the league winner would be strengthened with a minimum of five stars from the other clubs for the Milwaukee plum.
		The truth is American baseball won't stand for it, but they thought they could make it stick in Canada.

		Unfortunately i spent almost all of the 1955 season stationed in France, so i didn't get to see the WS, but i consoled myself by knowing i would see our team win another WS in the years to come, little did i know.
		As for the beginning of the season of 1955, the Dodgers won 10 straight, but, as I recall, Reese was injured (back problem?) and did not play the opening few games.
		It was a dirty play, against the rules of baseball, and against the rules of humanity.

		At the opening ceremony, the surviving African American members of a Little League baseball team from South Carolina, who lost their chance to play in the World Series back in 1955 because of their state's then-policy of racial segregation, were celebrated and honored.
		But in 1955, of 62 chartered Little League programs in South Carolina, all but one of the leagues - the Cannon Street League - was composed entirely of whites.

		V.F.W. From it's modest beginnings in 1955, VFW Baseball has emerged as one of Minnesota and the nation's finest Youth Baseball programs.
		The first State Tournament was held in 1955, a four-team invitational event because the program was in its infancy and only a handful of teams were participating throughout the state.
		That participation grew and it wasn't long before baseball champions were being crowned in a number of the state's Districts as a prelude to the Grand Finale - the State Tournament.

	Bates College: Baseball
		Bates baseball coach Craig Vandersea is part of a new era at Bates.
		While Leahey's tenure included one of the watershed moments for the Bates program when the 1984 squad led NCAA Division III in batting average, Vandersea's first squad in 1999 boasted a Bates first, as Jason Coulie '99 was selected in the ninth round of the Major League Baseball draft by the Anaheim Angels.
		A 1995 graduate of the University of Rhode Island, where he played varsity football for four years, Vandersea was an assistant baseball and football coach at Norwich University and a football assistant under his father, Howard, at Bowdoin before joining the Bates staff as running backs coach and third base coach in 1998.

	Dr. Mike Marshall's Pitching Book; Chapter Eleven
		Professor Hale assessed nineteen 1955 Little League Baseball World Series players as ‘pubescent’. Three pubescents were eleven years old and sixteen were twelve years old. These pubescents averaged 12.60 chronological years old (151.20 months), 60.30 inches and 96.05 pounds. Therefore, the Estimated Skeletal Age of the pubescents averages 151.81 months or 12.65 years.
		82% or 92 of the 1955 Little League World Series participants were 12 years old, 17% or 19 were 11 years old and 1% or 1 was 10 years old. Professor Hale evaluated 45.5% or 51 as post-pubescent, 17% or 19 as pubescent and 37.5% or 42 as pre-pubescent.
		Little League Baseball, Inc. eligibility rules permit only 12 year olds and younger to participate. Nevertheless, fifty-one 12 year old players averaged 12.97 chronological years old. Apparently, the coaches of the 1955 Little League Baseball World Series were able to find players with birth dates close to the elimination date.
