THE OPTIC EDITORS: CONNIE CASTO SUSAN MARSTON Victory High School Clarksburg, West Virginia Principal’s Message During your three years at Victory we have endeavored to help you develop to the best of your ability the following imperative needs for the youth of today. 1. Proper attitudes 2. Knowledge of a citizen’s rights . and duties 3. Mental and physical fitness 4. Intelligent consumer participation 5. Scientific method of thinking 6. Good human relationships 7. Worthwhile leisure time activities 8. Aesthetic appreciation 9. Preparation for family living 10. Opportunity to participate in good citizenship activities and 11. To develop saleable skills. In order to accomplish this aim it was necessary to teach you a lot more than pure “book learning.” The opportunity of participating in clubs and extracurricular activities was needed and also the general development of the “Victory Spirit” through the association with your fellow students, faculty, and community activities was a necessity. What you do in the future will determine how well we have done our job. We have faith in our students.

After two weeks’ practice, the Mazzeimen showed signs of a good season by downing the Weston Minutemen 20-0. They gained another mark on the win column when they defeated the strong Elkins eleven. The comeback in the second half proved to all that Victory was a team to watch constantly. In 1960 Victory took on two new teams, Point Pleasant and Richwood. Meeting the latter on Sept. 23, the West-enders won easily. The tense scoring battle between Point Pleasant and the Eagles finally found our boys on top 32-27. The next victim to fall prey to us was Fairmont West. The outcome didn’t look too good until the offense and defense began to click in the second half. Supporting a 5-0 record, the Eagles met a team with an identical tally—R-W. The City Championship trophy was on the way to 5 Adamston because of the combined efforts of all members of our squad. R-W fell 18-12. The Associated Press rated Victory as the top school in the Big Ten as a result of this win. The next two games were fatal to the Eagles. In an off-night game the Shinnston Spartons defeated the Victory eleven 33-19. The following week Weir High, State AAA champs, outscored our boys 48-13. To get back in the winning column Victory beat Buckhannon 14-6. On a very wet November 11, 1960, the “Mighty” Eagles met and tromped the Washington Irving Hilltoppers 20-0. This win brought the Sam V. Mazzei trophy back where it belongs—in Victory. The defeat of W. I. climaxed the season for the squad. Their excellent record—8-2 will be remembered for many years to come.
