Boxoffice, Dec. 3, 1955: “A blaze which firemen said followed an explosion of a butane stove took the life of John H. Howze, 88, and destroyed the Rustic Drive-In on Highway 287 west of here. The butane stove was in an apartment under the screen of the theatre. Howze, a retired farmer, lived alone in the apartment. Firemen did not know he was inside until they found his body after the fire was out. High winds fanned the blaze and hampered firefighting efforts. Damage to the drive-in was estimated at $20,000.”

Approx. location for this drive-in was east of 1724 U.S. 380. The outline though barely visible is still there.
