Boxoffice of February 16, 1970, said that Mid-Atlantic Theatres, new owners of the Pitts-Madison Theatre in Orange, Virginia, which had been in operation since 1936, had closed the house on December 31, 1969, due to lack of business. Mid-Atlantic planned extensive improvements at the Pitts Drive-In, which continued in operation on weekends.

R/C Theatres, of Randallstown, Maryland, had bought the sixteen remaining theaters in the Pitts chain in November, 1969. As far as I’ve been able to discover, Mid-Atlantic was a subsidiary of R/C.
