Conrad Stadium, event, circa 1962, photo 1

This image shows the Homecoming Queen giving a speech behind a podium at Conrad Stadium at Appalachian State Teachers College (1929-1967) in the early 1960s. The woman at the podium is possibly 1962 Homecoming Queen Brenda Kay Bradley. The Band can be seen sitting in the background, and Cratis Williams, dean of the Graduate School, can be seen sitting behind the podium. Located at the far southern end of Appalachian State, the stadium was completed in 1962, rebuilt in 1979 and was renamed Kidd Brewer Stadium in 1988. It replaced College Field, the previous football field located at the current location of Rankin Science Hall, built 1963.
