=" HEY say that over 700 teen-age
boys were auditioned to play

when they finally narrowed the search
down to young Dickie Jones, they
were almost afraid to hire him be-
cause he was so much like Henry
Aldrich himself.
Dickie, l6, showed up for the first
rehearsal equipped with large Com
mando knife - which he kept fash
ing and a yo-yo and a voice which
kept cracking. Until war came and

Sam Clemens at Is, was the voice of
Walt Disney's Pinocchio. But he is
no child prodigy: these days he is
very much fifth-former at the
Hackley School. Tarrytown, N. Y.
He picked the school himself when
he was hired as Henry. He wanted
no part of a professional school, in
sisted on regular prep with good
football field and non-unique stu
dents.
Only concession that the
school has made to Dickie as
radio star is to give him Thurs
day off so he can come to Man.

show. On Saturday. though, he
makes up all the classes he misses.
His fellow students were ready to
make his life miserable when they
discovered that he was Henry. But
Dickie went out for football, ended
up as quarterback on the first team.
The quality that endeared him most
to the other students: he never gave
himself the ball when his team was IN

in hogging the limelight.
At a recent school prom, Dickie
got fed up with fan-struck girls who
wanted to dance with Henry Aldrich.
So he introduced himself as Dick
