Spelled as Amythis in the May 1960 issue of Boxoffice magazine:

ST. LOUIS-The Amythis, 4300 St. Ferdinand Avenue, has been reopened by Mort S. Silvers, a former vaudeville entertainer and Universal Pictures employee for 40 years. Silvers had planned to reopen the house January 11 but was delayed when he was hospitalized for a long period.

The 1955 Film Daily spells the name as “Amytis”.
