What happens
Clark Kent and Jimmy Olsen are guests at the ranch of Comanche Joe, a wealthy oilman, where Clark hopes to report on a strange howling heard before a series of mishaps. Jimmy has been badly hurt after a horse he rode was tampered with. Superman saves Jimmy's life by giving him a blood transfusion after a doctor operates on him, and the boy begins to recover. Superman then asks the doctor to keep his help secret. At the ranch, Comanche Joe's warriors capture the foreman Dusty, who is questioned about the attempt on Jimmy's life. The story is part seven of The Adventures of Superman, a radio serial first broadcast on December 27, 1940, with the actors not named in the transcript.

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.
