Foreword The first graduating class left Victory High School in 1919. Since then the unending Victory tradition and great school spirit has grown in the hearts of all students who have attended. During a three year span at Victory, students have made lasting memories of the teachers, classes, favorite subjects, cheerleading, band, great football and basketball teams, noon hour activities, special awards, that all-important Senior year, the halls of V.H.S., especially the classmates and long-lasting friendships made during this time. These same memories have been shared by students of Victory High School for fifty years. While commemorating this fiftieth Anniversary of Victory, the students of 1969 should remember tradition and remain loyal to their Alma Mater. We are only lucky because our memories are more recent ones. Although, within a few years, our school may no longer be known as Victory High, its spirit and love will remain in the hearts of its former students forever. The 1969 Optic staff hopes that we have captured a few memories of this year to add to the pleasant thoughts of former years at V.H.S. My sincere thanks go to all who assisted in bringing this publication to you, especially our excellent staff.

We Dedicate Our Yearbook to . . . A Favorite Teacher Graduation time brings memories of happy moments of high school years and those teachers who helped make them more pleasant. Seniors realize that as sophomores, lasting impressions are made by teachers and classes, and to succeed in future years you must first learn the basics. Looking back to sophomore English every Senior remembers that one teacher who understanding helped them through themes, book reviews and grammar. She did this and at the same time made learning fun. Everyone that has been connected with Journalism also has a fond memory of working under her guidance and help. Memories are formulated of a teacher who was understanding, gracious and warm. The Class of ’69 dedicate this Optic with sincere appreciation to Mrs. Betty Noah. Mrs. Noah holds McGregor, the Sophomore magazine sale mascot. 8
