I think it was the same theater, should be an aka.
Listed as the Dustbowl in the 1963 IMPA. Operator was Louis F. Long Enterprises.
The Eloy Theatre is listed in the 1941 and 1943 editions of Film Daily Yearbook with a seating capacity of 300. It is the only theatre in town.
However, listed in the 1950 edition of F.D.Y. is the Dust Bowl Theatre with 675 seats and the Eloy Theatre with 400 seats.
Yes, this is the Dustbowl theatre. Eloy only had one theatre besides the “Y” drive in.
Here’s a 2006 view of the ELOY: http://www.rushcreekgallery.com/lfop/index.html
