A X A K N S A Y Hard year Warren City's Board of Education did not have what one might call an easy year. Warren suffered financial problems equal to, or worse than those plaguing the rest of the country. Staff had to be reduced, several programs were cut, sports contracts were terminated, and money for books, supplies, and materials was cut to a minimum. New members, Martha Warmuth and Paul Carlson, now are helping to wrestle with all of these problems. In addition to the regular problems, the warehouse burned down and sev- eral roofs leaked. Besides getting no pay for the position, being a board member is a thankless job. We admire and thank these people. ' m 130!Administration Robert L. Pegues Ir.

Who we are We are freshmen, sophomores, juniors and seniors. We are teachers, cooks, janitors and library aids. We are trendsetters, followers, and loners. We are each trying to do our own thing, yet we link together and make a whole. We are the people that constitute Warren Western Reserve. In some ways we are like a chain, yet a chain whose links are all a different shape. Each of us bends and colors our own link to achieve individuality, but the chain keeps us together. Through the chain, we connect and sometimes bind. Not all the connections are strong, some are even frail. Some links are bigger, brighter and more noticable, others are quiet and soft, but we are all in together. We add our link to the chain that is Reserve when we add our name to the roster. We grasp a link on each side and the chain grows a little bit stronger. And this is WHO we are. WHOf129

Mr. fohn Peckyno-Principal, Warren Western Reserve. Q3 Q-egg W Mr. Peckyno even finds time to pose for yearbook photographers with the object of a sport which has brought fame to many athletes from WWR. XX28ll hour day Although Mr. fohn Peckyno is a terribly busy person, he somehow always finds time to help out the staff and students at Warren Western Reserve. Being the principal of a large school such as Reserve is a very demanding job. There is a never ending list of meetings, banquets, committees, and athletic events to attend. Sometimes there are just not enough hours in the day to do the number of the things Mr. Peckyno has to do, but he always seems tn make time. One of the more unpleasant aspects of Mr. Peckyno's job this year was the problem of the large cuts in funding. This caused many teachers to lose their positions and many programs to be dropped. Along with the baby boom came many replacements midway through the year making Grandpa Peckyno a nervous wreck. Working with the teachers advisory committee, planning the North Central Evaluation and helping with and worrying about the band's big trip to Dallas filled up much of his spare time. There is no one in all of Warren Western Reserve High School to be more proud of our student's, staff's and team's accplishments than our principal. With the top honors received by students, recognition given to our staff and top ratings to our boys and girls basketball teams, Mr. Peckyno can feel great satisfaction in the fact that all of his hard work has not been wasted. One of the events Mr. Peckyno attended this year was the swearing in of the new NHS members. Mr. Peckynoflfil
