What happens
Britt Reid, publisher of the Daily Sentinel, investigates after an airliner crashes and the insurance policy of passenger Ralph Morris pays out to the Demargo Corporation. Reid and Commissioner Higgins grow suspicious of John DeMargo's ongoing hiring campaign for South America, and reporter Casey helps look into the company's recruits. The Green Hornet, with his valet Kato, works to expose the scheme. The Green Hornet series aired on February 24, 1948, and the episode is presented by General Mills' Betty Crocker Cereal Tray, with Jack McCarthy in the title role.
Equidulum and the city of Detroit area, including the Daily Sentinel offices, the Civic Club, the DeMargo Corporation, and a flight bound for South America out of Miami.

Written from the episode itself; it never gives away the ending. Every recording is remastered for the stream: cleaned of rumble, hiss and mains hum (and the old TV whine where we found it), then levelled in two passes to steady broadcast loudness, so one show is never quieter than the next.
