Beetle. Weeding down upon the underworld a smashed ganglin comes the mysterious all powerful character who is a problem to the police but a coup d'serifal law. In reality Dan Garret are looking for told love by everyone but suspected by none of being the blue Beetle. As the blue Beetle he hides behind a

screen of mask and a suit of intangible blue chain armor flexible as silk but Call the Benfils! Today's episode of the Fox Feature, the Blue Beetle, is the second half of a story entitled Smashing the Restaurant Ragged.

In the previous episode, the Trollman Dan Garrett learns that the Cosmopolitan Restaurant Owners Association, which has been formed ostensibly by restaurant owners to protect themselves against outlaw strikes, is in reality an organization formed by a group of crooks to extract money from the restaurant owners.

In search of evidence and the individual who is the power behind the racket, Dan Garrett has the blue beetle, visits the cosmopolitan headquarters, and encounters two supposedly rivaled union heads who are working together. By means of a trick, the blue beetle is imprisoned in a clothes closet, and as the episode ended, the racketeers were fleeing after setting

fire to the building. As our story opens today, the blue beetle, having freed himself, and and also rescued Joan Mason of the Chronicle, whom he found imprisoned in another room, has carried her to the roof of an adjoining building. She is just regaining consciousness.

Where am I? You're safe. You're on the roof of the building next to the one where I found you. The fireman will be here any minute. The blue beetle? Yes, and you're Joan Mason. What were you doing in that building?
