A program from a school play entitiled "Hollywood Bound" where Jim Jones played "Phineas Tompkins-- a prominent clubmen." This is ironic as Jim Jones and siblinings used to hang around the film sets of "My Friend Flicka" and "Can't Stop Singing" when they were young. He befriended the young Roddy McDowell and his siblings assumed Jim would be cast as an extra in the film, but he never was.
