There’s a huge, detailed story about the Rio (and a few other things) by Bob Amick (is that you, rda?) in the Dec. 12, 2016 issue of the (Meeker) Herald Times. There’s even more in an accompanying PDF to the article.
Boxoffice, March 9, 1957: “Glen Wittstruck has sold the Rio in Meeker, as well as his home there, to Dr. Willis E. Scott, a dentist.”
“The closing of the Chateau at Wauneta, Neb., operated by Dr. F. E. Rider, leaves Dr. W. E. Scott, owner of the Rio at Meeker, Colo., as the only dentist in the Rocky mountain area operating a theatre”. — BoxOffice, March 21, 1960
