Jones played by Tyrone Guthrie. His drunken escapades, his occasional attentions to the native girls whe study under Miss Jones together with the fact that he owes oil the merchants and Is inclined to 60 on q spree rather than pay off his bills when pay day comes, are among the many comical scenes whict lead up to the exciting climax.
