What happens
Superman, Clark Kent, Jimmy Olsen and Lois Lane are stranded in a remote South American valley after their plane lands near a vast crack in the earth opened by the dry season. Seeking shelter for the night, the group builds a makeshift lean-to beside a brook, while Clark leaves briefly to gather wood. Jimmy and Lois are left to guard the injured Red Peyton, and a jaguar threatens them. Elsewhere, two Japanese soldiers parachute into the hills and discuss their mission to take over the region, noticing a bright light in the distance. The episode is part 13 of The Adventures of Superman, a 1945 radio series, first broadcast on January 31, 1945.
A remote valley in South America, the Orinoco region, during the dry season, near a brook and a grassy plain with large earth fissures.

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.
