Sophomore Wins Prize At Annual Flower Show Beulah McCoy, a sophomore, won a cash award for the best bird house in the third annual flower show of the Monongahela-Cheat region held on April 25-26, at the Carmichael auditorium. This exhibit was sponsored by the West Virginia Federation of Garden Clubs and the Clarksburg Women’s Club. The school band, under the leadership of Mr. William Tole, aided in furnishing the music for the occasion.

Va, Move-Up Day Elevates Juniors to Front Row Class day and move-up day, looked forward to by all senior graduates as well as the junior and sophomores, was held Thursday morning, May 16, during the regular assembly period. The program was presented in an extraordinary style. The class history read by Monalee Crutchfield, was in the form of excerpts from the diary of the senior class. It revealed many love affairs and personal matters which were well under-cover until exposed by the research workers. The will was presented in the form of an auction. The class prophecy was presented by a mystic Hindu crystal gazer. John Tiano, vice-president of the senior class, presented the senoir key to the junior class president, Harold Lovell. Presentation of the mantle was made by the class secretary, Lyhle Gillen water, to the junior class secretary, Irene Shively. As the program ended, the seniors marched out of the auditorium leaving the juniors to take their seats, while the sophomore class vacated the “shelf” and moved to the junior section. The seniors wore the traditional gray and white caps and gowns.

OPEN SESAME Pettrey’s A STEP AHEAD Shoes and Hosiery NOW Is the Time for LONG’S Donuts and Bread SAYRE PORTRAITS Are Portraits that please. We invite you to come into our Studio Sayre Studio Fourth Street Clarksburg I have here in my hands perhaps the most coveted treasure of Victory High School. This key opens to seniors vast traditional practices and privileges envied by all lower classmates. First of all, once in possession of this key retainers have exclusive right to the use of the front door. This privilege does not always remain unchallenged, however. Frequently the front steps present a more immaculate appearance due to efforts of some underclassman who heedlessly thought to crash the sacred portal. In the realm of knowledge there is not much that this key does not make seniors heirs to. In Room 404 alone, they are graciously permitted to use reams of notebook paper and tanks of midnight oil and to receive in return brackets of red ink. Contracts thus constructed, if spread out would camouflage the whole of Scandinavia (and perhaps do more good there). For a whole year the Class of 1940 has been in possession of this “open sesame”. It is bright from constant use. There is not one scar to mar its bright surface. We feel sure that no other class has or will make as profitable use of it as has the Class of 1940. It is therefore, with reluctance that the Class of 1940 now gives into the possession of the Class of 1941 the key which entitles them to henseforth, for one year, unlock for themselves all the traditional senior privileges of Victory High School. They, in turn, are directed to hand down the same to the next class in due succession, in order that this key continue in unbroken sequence, the cherished possession of those who come after us.
