Yes, but unfortunately I cannot confirm if this was first independently operated since the Crofton Cinema 4’s opening on October 14, 1977 or the theater being a JF theater in the 1980s. However, I can confirm that it was taken over by Loews in the late-1980s, later operated by Sony Theatres, and finally Loews Cineplex.
Correction: This actually opened with “That Certain Age”, and not “The Wizard Of Oz”. This was all according to a September 2012 article by Christopher Cugini.

The Juliar Theatre closed on October 18, 1959 after failing to compete against the widely-popular Al Ringling. The theater did attempt to reopen again on February 3, 1960 but this didn’t last long at all, closing around one month later. After closure, the Baraboo Amusement Company took over the building in October 1965 but its future of the building remained undecided.
Actual closing date is June 6, 1995 with “While You Were Sleeping”.
