I’ll take a punt with: Max Baer, Jr.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen him in anything but that “Let me, ya a story about a man named Jed” TV series so I can’t be sure.

Not him.

Carl Switzer, Alfalfa from Our Gang?

Hmm. I suspect this will be either you know as an old man or as child.

Carl Switzer?

Looks like Alfalfa to me — Carl Switzer. Poor guy met a tragic end.

Yes, it’s Carl Switzer, in one of the small parts that came after his Alfalfa career. Here he’s uncredited, playing a patient in Not as a Stranger (dir. Stanley Kramer, 1955). He’s on screen for just seconds. He can also be spotted in It’s a Wonderful Life, where he’s one of the pranksters who open the gym floor.
