o confusion with Peckyno Where were you the morning of November 16 when the lights went out? Are you cold? I'm freezing! These were normal questions heard everyday by the faculty and student body. p Upon arriving at school on November 16, one expect- ed it to be another normal day. At 7:40 a.m. the electric- ity went out and a blackout had hit Reserve. The teachers quickly ran out into the halls and saw that 'everyone stayed under control. The students were told to go to the outside rooms where there was a maximum of light from the windows. When one looked down the hall, lighters were seen everywhere because students were unable to open their lockers. To the dismay of the students, the electricity was restored about 8:15 a.m. and everyone had to return to class. This commotion was due to a tele- phone pole being hit near Austin Village Plaza. - f-- . ..k. N N K f V s K sw- i .N . ,k. , if Q One of the biggest changes to hit Reserve was the loss of our principal, Mr. Nick Pitinii, who was promoted to Personnel Director. Fortunately, Mr, Iohn Peckyno was aasigned to take his place. Mr. Peckyno proved to be as good a principal as Mr. Pitinii. Changes made by Mr. Peckyno took some time to get used to, but we found that they were not as bad as we thought them to be. One of the changes was that students must report to study hall. If not they were to be put in In-School Suspension. Mr. Peckyno's concern with better discipline was to be commended. The unknowing from day to day about whether or not the electricity would go off and changes made by our new principal, Mr. Peckyno filled the year with surpris- ing and interesting TURNING POINTS.

Inflotion hits students hoird Students here at Reserve cannot say they are bored be- cause there is nothing to do. If a student cannot find anything to do it is his own fault. There are so many activities from which one can choose, from sign painting parties during Harding-Reserve Week to band working and sports. School oriented activities began to show a de- cline in interest as the trend began to move toward out- of-school activities. More students began Working as in- flation hit everyone harder and harder every day. With the always rising prices of movies and food, many stu- dents found that a quiet, relaxing evening at home proved to be just as interesting as a night out on the town. However, the school provided alternatives such as donkey basketball games, student plays, and all types of sports events, ranging from the ever popular football games to wrestling, swimming or golf. As we began to go out into the world, we realized that prices were on a constant increase while the economy was on a constant decline. All of us looked toward the beginning of a new decade as a TURNING POINT that would bring about a change in our economic and social lives. Student Life Divider 111
