FOREWORD We, the senior staff, are proud to present to you our 1960 Victory Optic. This book has caught glimpses here and there, so that in years to come, the activities of this school year at Victory High will not be dimmed and will not fade from memory. In later years, while turning these pages, if you should recall the many smiles, sorrows, and dreams of '60, we shall be content, knowing that we have done the thing we were called upon to do. VICTORY OPTIC STAFF APPRECIATION The Senior Class of 1960 wishes to take this opportunity to express its deepest gratification to our class sponsor. Miss Upton, and our principal, Mr. Powell. We feel that through time, unselfishly and earnestly given, and advice, sincerely and encouragingly given, we have attained our goal. MR. J. EDWARD POWELL, Principal M.A., A.B., West Virginia University In our humble way we wish to acknowledge their patience and effort in our behalf. MISS HELEN UPTON, Math A.B., West Virginia Wesleyan M.A., West Virginia University 2

DEDICATION Why do we dedicate the '60 OPTIC to you? BECAUSE you came THRU THESE DOORS at dawn and didn't leave till dark, giving your day to youth—at times not a very rewarding occupation. BECAUSE you helped to make this year of '60 the best ever. BECAUSE YOU WERE THERE when we needed you most, we give to you the most precious gift we have to offer ... the dedication of a year of memories Mrs. Smallwood, we dedicate our book to you. 3 Josiah Gilbert Holland once said, 'The time demands strong minds, great hearts, true faith, and willing hands Victory has found all this in Mrs. Smallwood.
