,E I DernOCPGCq LUIS of school Dfw: Sum The high school gymnasium, completed two years ago, is a structure of immeasureable importance in promoting a well-rounded local high school program. Courses in physical education are among the most interesting in the curriculum. Basketball games in the local gym attract large crowds and during the past season the gymnasium was the site ofthe first all-district tournament sponsored by the local high school. The Corrigan Independent School District boasts one of the most modern small high school stadiums in the state. The first gridiron struggle within its gates was the 1950 Junior-Senior game. Since then spectators have witnessed two seasons of thrilling grid- iron struggles in it, climaxed by the Bulldogs being 1951 football champions of District 21-B.
