Here is an item from the February 25, 1939 issue of Boxoffice:

“Waldo’s new WaKea Theatre opened last week to a packed house. Mr. and Mrs. T. F. Keasler, Hughes Springs, Tex., and Mr. and Mrs. L. W. Watts, Oil City, Pa., owners of the new house, were present for the opening. The new house cost $15,000 and is modern in every respect.”
