The Varsity Theater opened its doors on September 20, 1948 with the Texas premiere of Sammy Baugh in “Triple Threat” (unknown if extras added).
The May 8, 1948 issue of Boxoffice had an article about theater projects underway that were designed by Dallas architect Raymond F. Smith. One of them was an unnamed theater for W. J. Wooten at Canyon. It must have been the Varsity. The target date for opening was September 1.
