Coaches Named for New Andrew Warde High School 59 Years Ago Today

Let's take a look back and see what was happening on this date 59 years ago. The reassignment of three coaches at Roger Ludlowe High School to the new Andrew Warde High School, which opened in September of 1956, was announced on this date --- Tuesday, February 7, 1956.

Fern Tetreau (football), Robert Jackson (baseball), and Robert Seirup (basketball) transferred from the Unquowa Road high school to the sparkling new secondary high school on Melville Avenue. Tetreau guided the Warde gridders to a perfect record in 1959, and Jackson and Seirup perenially led their squads to tremendous success.

Take a look at the front-page article which appeared in The Bridgeport Post from Wednesday, February 8, 1956.
