Transcript

Presenting the transcription feature, Superman. For the sky! For the Earth, it's a plane! It's Superman! Yes, it's Superman! Srained visitor from the planet Krypton, who came to earth with powers and abilities far beyond both of mortal men.

Superman, who can leap tall buildings of a single bound, race a feeding bullet to its target, then steal in his 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. Certain that the unknown man who has been secretly trying to purchase the Baro Ranch is responsible for the ghost car accident, Clark Kent and Ed Jenks, the real estate agent, set a trap to catch him.

But the attempt to lure the mysterious stranger to an abandoned goldmine failed when Steve Graham, the ranch owner, came in on them unexpectedly. Graham warned them not to stay in the mine, but Kent and Jenks decided to explore the main tunnel.

Tracing the source of a strange tapping noise, they found Lois Lane investigating the mine on her own hook. Suddenly an ominous rumble echoed through the tunnel. Hurrying to the exit they found that a cave-in had blocked it with tons of rock and debris.

They're only flashlight broken. Kent, Lois and Jinks are imprisoned in the pitch-black depths of the mine with no possible means of escape. We'll suffocate down here. They're no aim. She's right, Mr. Kent. Don't worry. We'll get out somehow.

How can we talk? Oh, I've been there. You're trying to fool me. This mine is our tool. Not then. I can't stand this dark make it easy, Lois. Mr. Kent, we're in a tough spot. There's no other exit from this tunnel.
