Knop The Orland Park B team led the Conference for the record con- secutive year by winning all 10 of their Conference games. Orland had a very long winning streak of 34 straight wins until it was snapped by a thriller against Beecher. Final score was Orland 37, Beecher 40. Eaglets quickly recovered however, and began a new winning spree. Predictions for the future success of the coming A team are high. All of Orland's boosters will be backing them on to further success.

Our Senior Stars e We Seniors of the A team have played our last game for good old Orland. We have tried our best to win, but our best was not always good enough. We hop, however, that Orland looks back not on our defeats but on our victories. To Coach Jorstad fell the job of trying to make humming birds out of us clumsy mules. He taught us sportsmanship and fair play along with his attempt to form a winning team. Coach al- ways promoted a clean wholesome atmosphere, and he always played fair with each of us. We give him our deepest thanks. We all have enjoyed participating in the sport of basketball and We are especially proud to have been able to play under the banner of Orland Park. We want to thank our many loyal fans who gave us such fine support throughout the season. We also want to thank the Junior Class for the fine dance they gave in our honor. We wish next year's varsity the best of success and hope they can carry Orland's name to higher fame.
