The seventh grade crew on the U.S. Cruiser began a new voyage with 34 members led by Miss McLaren. They organized a fair booth and a fish pond, added new cadets F Hilge H Hanson D Marion B Kreager J Bennett C Feeman E Meske and C Englehart, and saw losses R Menzel M Doubleday J Farrick and K Howell.

The senior class lists members R Shaun C Applegate R Menzel D Elfring and B Strickland as entrants with G Rowland K Beasley B Kreager and R Shaun among leet veterans. They started with a Halloween party at John McCoy's barn featuring a hayloft surprise and Miss McLaren’s rounds. The year also introduced the first class talent show to fund the senior trip with D Hoeft M Butler S Shultz C Feeman P Hopp and others participating.
Applegate J Bennett and V Corl left us. Farewell parties were hosted by J Bennett D Strickland S Shultz and V Corl. We ran a fair booth with a fish pond and homemade candy. We sponsored a Christmas dance The Holly Hop with limited success and held a talent show for grades 17 12. Our junior year began with 49 students and included football concessions the Milk Producers Banquet and Rotary Dinner and the play Men Are Like Streetcars. We raised funds via a junior talent show and a treasury boost. Patricia Rogers Beverly Levey and Marlon Luckhardt departed. We started senior year with three new students Jim Jacobs John Robson and Paul Harbeck a German exchange student. We toured First National Bank in Detroit and heard Mr Ford remind seniors not over 50. As we end our Saline High years we reflect on Freshman Sophomore and Junior memories with fondness.
A fragmentary note speaks to seniors of the future, hoping they discover the same thrill in memories and experiences as the writers did, capturing a reflective and hopeful tone.
