Seeking former football all-stars

It was the summer of 1974 when a football game called the Santa Clara County All-Star Bowl debuted on the turf at San Jose State's Spartan Stadium.

Since that time, it has grown to become a summer classic for high school football all-stars, and the event, now known as the Charlie Wedemeyer All-Star Football Game, returns this summer for its 25th anniversary game.

To celebrate, game organizers--the Almaden Valley Rotary Club--invite former all-star players and coaches to attend the game, set for Friday, July 23, at Spartan Stadium.

For information, and for former players and coaches to reserve their place at the event, write to All-Star Events, P.O. Box 20933, San Jose 95160, or send a fax to 268-2960.
