The 1972 election provided an opportunity for students to vigorously campaign and to help put their favorite candidates into office. After much deliberation, many 18-year-olds cast their first ballots November 2, 1972 in national elections. Five exchange students came to New Haven during the year. Living with the families of various students, they shared experiences from their countries and rapidly learned about life in New Haven and the United States. Classes invited the exchange students to speak and show pictures of their South American or German cultures.

For the first time in three years the two Homecoming days at New Haven dawned undimmed by rain, a phenomenon which proved a good sign for the Bulldogs. The team went out Friday night and Scrunched South by a score of 21-20. as Mary Criswell so hopefully predicted to Mr. Anonymous (Klopfenstein) at Fri- day ' s pep session, winning herself five dollars. The Senior float won first place out of the class division in the parade, and Spanish Club took the award for the best club float. Renee Shaffer was chosen as the 1972 Homecoming queen. Her attendants were Martha Kratzat, Peggy Newhall. Peggy Partridge, Carla Eynon, Tami Beatty and Jill Meyers. The final climax of this triumphant Homecoming was the after-dance, at which Narrow House , provided the music.
