Time Travel: Students Working on BHS Fieldhouse in 1970s and Rewinding to East Fairmont's Gym

By Dick Duez on May 05, 2019 from History Blog via Connect-Bridgeport.com

This photo is from the October, 1978 Shawnee Powwow and shows work being done on the fieldhouse at what is now Bridgeport High School's Wayne Jamison Field. Although four individuals are pictured, the caption list the workers - in no particular order - as Rich Reed, Chris Newbrough anbd Mark Elliot. If you know the order of the individuals and if you know the fourth individual in the photo, please add to the comment section below.
Although the exact date of this photo is unknown, it is easily more than 50 years old and shows individuals exiting what was the former gymnasium at East Fairmont High School. Anyone have any memories of this place?
