In December we presented the Junior Play, Spring Journey , which was directed by Miss Helen Xenakis. In our junior year our basketball team went to the state tournament. Carmen Romano, Ralph Holder, Jim Hurst, Bill Allen and Jim Gaines were the juniors on the team. The National Honor Society initiated eight juniors; Nancy Bow, Rosalie Cummings, Joyce Floyd, Joann Piccolo, Bill Allen, Nathan Bauld, Jim Daugherty, and Ralph Holder. The Junior-Senior Prom was held on May 18, 1951, at the Stonewall Jackson Hotel. Heinie Hammel's orchestra played. Class Day came again and this time we moved into the senior seats. At last we possessed the long awaited privilege of going in and out of the front door and using the front steps. Then we entered Victory as seniors. Mr. Powell made the opening address. Carolyn Hupp was chosen the senior cheerleader, and Don Tipper, Bob Marshall, Tom Anania, Jim Carfora, Ralph Holder, Bill Allen, and Pee Wee Anderson played their last year of football for Victory. Jim Carfora was elected to the Big Ten football team and Paul Anderson made Honorable Mention. Both Paul and Jim made Honorable Mention on the 1951 All State Football Team. Jim Daugherty was elected class president for the third consecutive year. The other officers were Bill Allen, vice president, Nancy Bow, secretary, and Barbara Lough, treasurer. The National Honor Society initiated sixteen seniors on December 14, 1951. They were Shirley Jean Dingo, Twyla Dodd, Joann Gambazza, Norma Lee Holbert, Edna Knight, Phyllis Knight, Norma Layfield, Barbara Lough, Joan Michael, Mary Martha Perri, Beverly Wolfe, James Hurst, Jon Moore, Kent Riggs, and Bill Smith. We ordered our rings in October 1951 and received them on December 4, 1951. In the meantime Sayre Studio had started to take senior pictures. On December 21, 1951, we had a Christmas party. Seniors and their guests were entertained by games and dancing.

SENIOR CLASS HISTORY We, the senior class of '52 arrived at Victory High School on Tuesday, September 6, 1949. We heard Principal, Lucy Bailey, make the opening address, and most of us realized that the years ahead would be as good as we made them. September 12 came. It was the night of the Sophomore Class party, an evening of having fun and getting acquainted for both the students and faculty. A short time later we elected our class officers. James Daugherty was chosen president; Bill Allen, vice president, and Nancy Bow, secretary and treasurer. Our first project was selling magazines. We sold $1407. 39 and made a profit of $483.47. We elected Carolyn Hupp as our cheerleader. Jim Carfora, Ralph Holder, Paul Anderson, Tom Anania, Don Tipper, Bob Marshall and Bill Allen played their first football for Victory. Our contribution to the varsity squad was Jim Carfora, the only sophomore to start that year. Carmen Romano, Bill Allen, Ralph Holder, and Jim Gaines formed an outstanding reserve basketball team when die season opened in December. The Easter pageant was presented by the sophomore class. On March 30, 1950, we were greatly saddened by the loss of our beloved principal, Miss Lucy Bailey. Although we had only been here a few months, she had made the spirit of Victory a living symbol to us all. Mr. Sullivan efficiently acted as principal for the remainder of the year. Class Day was our next experience. Many of us wondered how we would feel when it was our turn to march out in our caps and gowns. Three months passed and we returned to Victory as juniors. We were happy to have Mr. Powell, former principal of Shinnston, as the new Victory principal. Mr. Young, who had been coach of West Milford, took over the job of coaching our football team. Our class elected as junior officers; Jim Daugherty, president; Bill Allen, vice president; Nancy Bow, secretary; and Barbara Lough, treasurer. Soon after we presented the Thanksgiving program, our Christmas card sale began. We were well over our quota and made $1. 037.00. Our profit was $476.00. The first prize was won by Dorothy Marshall, and Clovis Heldreth and Myrle Ashcraft were tied for second.
