Summary:<\/strong><\/p>\n

(Note:<\/strong> This tape was transcribed by Gay Marie Cabral. The editors gratefully acknowledge her invaluable assistance.)<\/em><\/p>\n

In the first part of this two-part tape, Yvonne Golden, the coordinator of Opportunity High School in San Francisco, introduces Jim Jones to a gathering at the school. Lauding the school for its work \u2013 also evidenced by the fact that the Temple chose to send a hundred young members to the school \u2013 Jones presents a check for $200 for its projects. Additional details of this gathering, and other events at Opportunity High, will appear in And Then They Were Gone<\/em>, a forthcoming book by Judy Bebelaar and Ron Cabral.<\/p>\n

The second portion of this tape is a short statement which Jones made at a rally in October 1976, following the California Supreme Court\u2019s decision on the Bakke case, which held that a program giving special treatment to minority applicants to the University of California was unconstitutional. Other people appeared at the rally \u2013\u00a0 including Rev. Cecil Williams of Glide Memorial Methodist Church and Native American activist Dennis Banks \u2013 but the tape includes only Jones\u2019 remarks.<\/p>\n

FBI Summary:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Date of transcription: 3\/21\/79<\/p>\n

In connection with the Federal Bureau of Investigation\u2019s investigation into the assassination of U.S. Congressman LEO J. RYAN at Port Kaituma, Guyana, South America, on November 18, 1978, a tape recording was obtained. This tape recording was located in Jonestown, Guyana, South America, and was turned over to U.S. Officials in Guyana and subsequently transported to the United States.<\/p>\n

On March 19, 1979, Special Agent (name deleted) reviewed the tape numbered 1B62 #52. This tape was found to contain the following:<\/p>\n

Side One \u2013 Blank.<\/p>\n

Side Two \u2013 Short talk given by the Reverend JIM JONES to persons at Opportunity High School during which time JONES presented the school with a $200 check.<\/p>\n

This tape was reviewed, and nothing was contained thereon which was considered to be of evidentiary nature or beneficial to the investigation of Congressman RYAN.<\/p>\n

Differences with FBI Summary:<\/strong><\/p>\n

The summary does not mention the second part of the tape, in which Jim Jones speaks about the Bakke decision, but is otherwise accurate and meets the FBI\u2019s purposes.<\/p>\n
