A week later (April 16), Boxoffice expanded on that note and gave us an opening year. “Mr. and Mrs. Edward T. Chambers have purchased the Starlight Drive-In from David W. Moore. Walter Eschebeck, who has managed the airer since it was opened in 1953, will continue to supervise the operation.”

D.W. Chambers of Albany OR sold the “Starlight” to Ed Chambers for over $60,000 per a note in the April 8, 1955 Motion Picture Daily.

A more accurate address for this theater is 3305 Columbia View Dr, The Dalles, OR 97058. This points directly to the drive in entrance.

Please update.

Here’s a link to a photo of what was the drive-in, with The Dallas drive-in in the distance. I’ve since been told that it was on a section called Columbia View Heights. http://boundless.uoregon.edu/cdm4/item_viewer.php?CISOROOT=%2FBestof&CISOPTR=838&CISOBOX=1&REC=1
