Enterprising leaders of Caldwell high school's bi-monthly publication, "The Canyon Cougar," have kept pace with the rest of of the all-star selectors and now step out with an all-Big Ten football team, the first to be circulated in these parts.
Before giving the names of the crack eleven, let it be known that the selections are made by coaches of Big Ten teams. Blanks were sent to each mentor with instructions for them to nominate men for each of the 11 positions. Places were awarded according to a point system - so many for first, second and third, and so on. All but two coaches co-operated, and if they feel hurt now because more of their players didn't make the all-star team, it obviously is their own fault. (Second team lineup puts Gerald Hopkins of Buhl at half-back)
