Saline's horizons have never been narrow, especially in recent years, as its residents traveled all over the
world, hy ship, by plane, or afoot, as. tourists, students,
or teachers. (See "Peace Corps", on this j.age.) Now
its prettiest pilot has circled the globe, adding today's
accomplishment to yesterday's legend. The photo above,
by Dale Fisher of Ann Arhor, taken in late June from
6,000 feet, might be called an "Ann's eye view" of Sar
line. It faces south from the north side of the city, showing the High School in center foreground, and the millpond at the right.
