CH COTAH FIRST ALL-STATER Bill Miner, who was selected on this years all-state football team, has the honor of being the first Checotah Wildcat to ever have made the first team on the all-state team. Bill, who lettered three years as a tackle and fullback, was a hard working football player and always had the inter- est of the team at heart. Hb is noted, not only for his football ability, but for his high type of character and good sportsman- ship. Checotah High School may well be proud of Bill for not many boys ever ach- ieve this honor. Everyone is wishing him luck as he goes on with college work and football playing.
