this theatre opened as the New Lake Theatre in 1937 and by 1938 it was just the Lake Theatre. It was still listed as the Lake Theatre in 1957. So the Showboat name must have came later.

Joe, I don’t think the Liberty became the Roxy. The Roxy is listed as opening in 1937 and both theatres were listed as operating thru at least 1958 at the same time. The address listed for the Liberty Theatre was 127 W. Main St. The Roxy Theatre is open showing current movies, it has made conversion to digital.
