The first eight were: Ken Wheeler, Amxand Pa- quin, Windy Herman, jerry Joslyn, Choc LeBlanc, Paul Racine, and Steve Alexander. The climax of the season was when Orleans defeated Barton in a play- off game which qualified us to enter the Class M State Toumament. The junior Varsity have several good prospects for the 1959-60 season. We extend our thanks to Mr. Whitaker who through many hours of practice, deserves much credit for our success .

Girls, Basketball N-Dean. S.Bart0n, S.White, B,I-Iommel, I.Cummings, S.SW2HS0l1. C3Pfain- Although the first team were nearly all new mem- bers, our season was very successful. Our forwards did a wonderful job of scoring while the guards did a swell job on defense. Our biggest thrill was defeating Morrisville which wound up the season with a 17-1 record. Many thanks go to Mr. Barton, who kept our spirits up and deserves much credit for our success .
