Gymnasts accomplish record 4th state title Backed by solid talent, the Colum- bus Bull Dogs smashed their way to a fourth successive state championship. During the season, the gymnasts accomplished a 9-1 overall record. The lone loss came at the hands of Illinois state champ, Arlington Heights. Although losing only two events, the Dogs were hurt by Arlington ' s depth. In invitationals, Columbus took first in the Columbus invitational by trouncing North Central 131-85.5. In the War- ren Central Invitational, the Dogs won easily over second place Southport. For Columbus in the sectional, the Canines advanced nine boys for 19 positions to the state meet.
