My old, fallible reference books point to the renaming from the Danville to the Auburn in the late 50s / early 60s.

1949-50: Collin and Wood, 550.

1952: Lockwood and Gordon Ent., 450.

1955-56: Lockwood and Gordon Ent., and Daytz Theatre Ent., 450.

(I)MPA data:

1953-59: Danville, 450, Daytz Theatre Ent.

1963: Aubury (sic), 450, Daytz Theatre Ent.

1969-76: Auburn, 475.

1982: 300, SBC Mgt. Corp.

1984-88: SBC Mgt. Corp.
