    All-star Football

    Outstanding football players from the high school class of 2000 will be on the field this summer for the annual Silicon Valley Youth Classic Charlie Wedemeyer All-Star Football Game.

    The game, billed as the "Best Game in Town" by its sponsor, the Almaden Valley Rotary Club, will return for its 26th year when a new group of all-stars takes the field on July 26, 7:30 p.m., at San Jose State University's Spartan Stadium.

    The classic began in the summer of 1974 and, with the exception of 1976, the game has been played since.
