What happens

Clark Kent is on the trail of Carl Schroeder, a fascist agent who has killed Dr. Chee Wan for the six jade dragon teeth and now holds all ten, said to hold the secret of everlasting life. Kent and Lois Lane fly west toward California, hoping to intercept Schroeder before he can leave for the Orient, where the rare herbs shown on the teeth grow. Their plane hits rough air and makes a hard landing, and Superman appears to rescue the passengers. Later, Kent and Lois are at a hotel when Schroeder arrives in town with his henchmen, and he begins to suspect that Kent is following him. The adventures of Superman are a radio series, and this episode is part six of The Mystery of the Dragon's Teeth.

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.
