of the Richwood Tiger Like Princeton University, Richwood High School's mascot was the tiger and our colors were orange and black. So we borrowed our alma mater from that Ivy League school.
At RHS, the varsity players and cheerleaders were generally members of the junior and senior classes, while the sophomores were "reserves."
Our gym didn’t have room on the sidelines for many cheerleaders, so there were only four who cheered for the reserve games (in white sweaters) and four for the varsity games (in black sweaters: Sheila Ward bottom, Pat Hoffman center, Janet Sampson and Pat Ransome top). During timeouts, they ran onto the floor for choreographed shouting. I don't recall that this ever involved forming the letter R. Presumably the girls above are in formation for the photographer's benefit. At a pep rally my freshman year, we all received the mimeographed words and clapping instructions so that we could join the cheerleaders in a “real hep” chant. It was also reproduced on page 49 of the 1962 yearbook.
