i x , tf.- . a ix H552 X X Student Life As the 1972 school term resumed, new teachers and incoming students adapted themselves to the flexible scheduling. The first few weeks of school were a little rough with the dif- ferent schedule changes being made. As everything resumed a normal, everyday pace, students began to par- ticipate and involve themselves in extra-curricular activities at school as well as in the city. The 1972 election year brought out- side activities for Rickards Redskins. Many involved themselves in cam- paigning for the candidate of their choice. A few of the Rickards seniors had a chance to tally their first vote. Posters were hung around the school and badges could be seen pinned to many campaigners. Clubs and organizations also had a busy year. They competed against other clubs to determine which club showed the most school spirit during the year. The Varsity Cheerleaders sponsored the contest and the club with the most points was the winner. Points could be earned by selling bub- ble gum, hanging up posters to an- nounce all upcoming games and events and participating in an all day cleanup campaign around the campus, spon- sored by Student Government.
