What happens
Clark Kent and Jimmy Olsen work to stop a campaign of hate-motivated violence in Metropolis, aimed at blocking a community clubhouse open to all youngsters. Inspector Henderson pushes for quick action against the gang members who attacked Rabbi Stone, while Kent asks for more time. Jimmy has infiltrated a gang led by Muggs, who takes orders from a leader who speaks from behind a black velvet curtain. Jimmy learns that Muggs plans a new attack that evening, and Kent discovers that a threatening letter has been sent to Dr. Leeds, a Methodist minister. The Adventures of Superman is a radio series, and this episode aired on May 6, 1946.

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.
