re: John Ferguson in World War II

I remember Politz announcing for LSU radio in the early 1950s when we listened at my Grandparents' home in DeRidder. He made the call on the 89-yard punt return on Halloween night of 1959. My Dad and I were listening in the car in our driveway in Mobile--never will forget it. I do not recall when John Ferguson began calling the football games, but it was within a few years of that game. It could be that Ferguson was calling games other than football. (In the late 1970s or early 1980s, I was playing violin in a wedding in Mobile, when Ed Keyes, minister of music and soloist, turned to me and told me the score. His wife, Jan, was listening on the radio in the congregation and was hand-signaling the score to him as he and I sat next to the piano).
