This photo appeared in the May 8, 1966 issue of the Las Cruces Sun-News. The original caption:
Aggie Drive-In Theater, located at the intersection of the Truck Bypass and West Hadley, is shown in its last stages of completion. The opening is scheduled for Thursday (12) with “Charade,” starring Cary Grant and Audrey Hepburn, and “I’d Rather Be Rich,” with Sandra Dee and Andy Williams. The drive-in is equipped with a 90 x 60-foot giant screen and double-cone speakers for better listening. Lamar Gwaltney, the owner and operate of Los Cruces' newest outdoor theater, said there will be room for 600 cars. It will be open seven days a week. (Priestley)
