I'm using two players; a Sony BDP-S350 and a Philips BDP5005.

Manual for the Sony:  http://www.docs.sony.com/release/BDPS350_US.pdf

Page 41:  Set TV Type to 4:3, set Screen Format to Fixed Aspect Ratio.

Page 42: Set DVD Aspect Ratio to Pan & Scan (only available when TV type is set to 4:3 and Screen Format set to Fixed Aspect Ratio.)

Manual for the Philips: http://www.p4c.philips.com/files/b/bdp5005_f7/bdp5005_f7_dfu_aen.pdf

Page 38: TV Shape: HOME > Settings > Advanced Setup > Video Output > TV Shape > 4:3 Pan & Scan. "To enjoy 16:9 picture on 4:3 monitor: Both sides of the picture are trimmed to fit the 4:3 TV without distorting the aspect ratio of the picture"

Looks to me as if both players should do exactly what you want them to do with The Wizard of Oz Blu-Ray.

You have to be missing a setting somewhere, Cliff.
