Photometric observations of SS 433 in V band obtained during the four-year period 1979-1982 are presented. The increased length of the data string has made detection of a true 160-day periodicity possible. A power-spectrum analysis of the data now reveals a period of 161.5 + or - 0.3 days. The structure of the 160-day light curve favors the accretion-disk model for the system, but it implies a need for asymmetry associated with the disk.
