The annual Andrew Warde High School Science Fair made headlines 49 years ago this week. According to the Tuesday, March 27, 1962 edition of
The Bridgeport Telegram, the two-day event was held Thursday and Friday, March 29 & 30, 1962.
The exhibit featured a radio telescope, a model of a solar system, a demonstration of a silk worm, fall out shelters, an atomic reactor, a Van de Grass generator, a rocket, and a micro wave transmission.
Winners were awarded a year's subscription to the Scientific American or a complete Science library. They also entered their exhibits in the Southern New England Science Fair at the University of Bridgeport.
