Transcript
Presenting the transcription feature, Superman! The first! It's a plane! It's Superman! Yes, it's Superman! Strange visitor from the planet Krypton, who came to earth with powers and abilities far beyond those of mortal men. Superman, who can leap tall buildings at a single bound, race a feeding bullet to its targets, then steal in its bare hands.
and who disguised as Clark Kent, mild-mannered reporter for a great metropolitan newspaper, fights a never-ending battle for truth and justice. But before we join Superman, listen. And now to our story. In an effort to clear up the mystery of the ghost car, a phantom automobile responsible for a number of accidents on the roads of the Baro deude Ranch,
Clark Kent and Lois Lane have been tracking down every possible clue. It is Kent's belief that someone is trying frightened Steve Graham, owner of the ranch, into selling, hoping to gain possession of the property.
But why? Is there anything of value on the ranch? Is it something in the abandoned goldmine? Ken isn't quite sure, but has taken the precaution of sending a sample of the ore for analysis. In the meantime, young Jimmy Olsen and Alfredo, a gaucho employed on the dude ranch, are bound hand and foot in a deserted cabin in the hills.
to burn through the rope tied around his wrists, Alfredo has backed up to a kerosene lamp on a table. Suddenly the lamp crashes to the floor. Oil said flames leap high as Jimmy and Alfredo helpless look on in terror. Meanwhile, back at the ranch, Kent and Lois are waiting for a searching party to be organized.
So what's heating Mr. Graham? We'll never pick up Jimmy's trail unless we get started. Why can't you and I go on alone? We don't know this country, Lois. Hey, what's that red glow in the sky?
