Title: Not Much To Do, 1966.
Description: Film made by six 11 to 14 year old boys living in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania--Barry Griffen, James Lucas, Ronald Mapp, Luerell Mapp, Michael Watters, Howard White--who were taught to shoot, develop and edit film. In 1966, Robert D. Stoddard, a recent graduate of Princeton Theological Seminary and assistant pastor at Tabernacle Presbyterian Church (Philadelphia, Pa.), developed the Tabernacle Film Club for West Philadelphia children of junior high school age. Stoddard's initial notion was to have the children film adaptations of Bible stories. A professor at the University of Pennsylvania's Annenberg School of Communication, Sol Worth, advised Stoddard to let the children simply roam with the camera. Funding for the project was raised from the Board of Christian Education and from the Presbyterian Women's Thank Offering. An Annenberg student, Ben Achtenberg, served as director. "Not Much To Do" premiered at the Annenberg School on Monday, November 14, 1966.

Title: Interracial church.
Description: Text transcribed from caption: INTERRACIAL CHURCH #1662 PHILADELPHIA -- This weekday gathering of young people at Calvary Protestant Episcopal Church here doesn’t have to stress racial tolerance. These youngsters, white and Negro, learn together, with Rector Thomas Logan getting a big smile out of all of them. Mr. Logan, formerly at St. Michael’s and All Angels Church, has raised Calvary from chapel status to that of an independent church. His present congregation is 90 per cent Negro, ten per cent white.
