Time Travel: BHS's Uniquely Themed Homecoming from 1975 and 1912 Workers at Peerless Glass

By Dick Duez on March 05, 2017 from History Blog via Connect-Bridgeport.com

The 1975 Bridgeport High School Homecoming theme was one based on a "colonial" era with outfits to match. Pictured are members of the court Louise Laulis, Jenny Powers, Pam Schively, Cindy Kinder, Sally Golden (queen), Philomena Krosmico, Cindy Bowers, Bev White and Lori Lucas according to the 1976 Ki-Cu-Wa Yearbook. The junior court members are not identified.
The caption above should explain the photo from the Peerless factory in 1912. Do you remember anything about the factory or glass plant or any of the workers shown above? Feel free to comment below.
