00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:05,759
Welcome to the Old time radio Superman
Show from Boise Otta Home. This is

00:00:05,799 --> 00:00:08,880
your host, Adam Graham. If

00:00:08,960 --> 00:00:15,720

we're going to get into the penultimate episode

4
00:00:15,960 --> 00:00:21,519
of the Ten Men's serial, the
last episode coming up for you on Wednesday.

5
00:00:21,679 --> 00:00:27,920
Of course, as we stated last
Wednesday, there is a lost episode,

6
00:00:28,320 --> 00:00:32,000
so no part twelve, but we're
going to go ahead and bring you

7
00:00:32,439 --> 00:00:39,479
the Ten Men Part thirteen original air
date January twentieth, nineteen forty three,

8
00:00:39,560 --> 00:00:46,600
and then on Wednesday, lesten for
Part fourteen from January twenty first of nineteen

9
00:00:46,679 --> 00:01:00,240
forty three. But let's go ahead
now and take a lesson to Superman able

10
00:01:00,240 --> 00:01:11,000
to recall buildings for the single pound
guy. Yes, this Superman, strange

11
00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:15,359
visitor from another world who came to
work with powers and abilities far beyond those

12
00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:19,680
of bottle men. Superman who can
change the cause of mighty rivers, bend

13
00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:25,560
the steel in his bare hands,
and who disguised as far Kent mild maned

14
00:01:25,599 --> 00:01:30,120
reporter for a great Metropolitan newspaper,
fights a never ending battle for truth,

15
00:01:30,359 --> 00:01:34,359
justice, and the American Way.
But before we joined Superman, here is

16
00:01:34,359 --> 00:01:40,840
an important methode the gang. Have
you heard the exciting story of the Coastguards

17
00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:44,200
whose lives were saved by a lot
of pigs? Was there? It actually

18
00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:48,959
happened. These Coastguards were engaged in
landing operations off the African coast. The

19
00:01:49,079 --> 00:01:53,560
sea was very rough, awful,
and then we planted all our troops and

20
00:01:53,560 --> 00:02:00,120
equipments. Let's get back to our
base. Give it a jupanan, I

21
00:02:00,159 --> 00:02:07,760
can't under we're looking badly if it
is, Oh my gosh, both propellers

22
00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:09,759
of us to clean up. We're
finished now, all right? Uh huh.

23
00:02:10,039 --> 00:02:13,159
I will just go ashore and kept
up with the arm and troops over

24
00:02:13,199 --> 00:02:17,919
there. On my fellas, any
fam there's an enemy before we're heading this

25
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:25,039
way. Come on into the shed, Henry, Henry, we're in a

26
00:02:25,159 --> 00:02:30,240
peacetin. It's too dard to same, but our benthetas least a dozen pigs

27
00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:32,759
in here right next to us.
That perfect. They'll ever find us here.

28
00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:36,319
Come on, get her one in
this corner and pull us toll here.

29
00:02:38,479 --> 00:02:42,759
Well. Five long days those two
Coastguards lived in the pig penny.

30
00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:46,879
Finally, the tom was surrendered to
American troops and they emerged too full of

31
00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:50,120
fight and energy. Now, Gang, those two coast guards might not have

32
00:02:50,159 --> 00:02:53,400
been able to survive their tough experiences
if they hadn't been in a one condition,

33
00:02:53,719 --> 00:02:58,159
but they were. They had plenty
of real stamina. And while we're

34
00:02:58,199 --> 00:03:00,000
on the subject of stamina I want
to get of all of you are really

35
00:03:00,039 --> 00:03:05,400
helpful suggestions. None of you can
expect to grow up sturdy and strong unless

36
00:03:05,439 --> 00:03:08,680
you eat right, which includes getting
all your vitamins. And I can't think

37
00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:13,879
of a better way to start getting
two very valuable vitamins D one and D

38
00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:19,599
than by sitting down to a twelve
big ball full of crisp delicious Kellard's Pets

39
00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:23,360
for breakfast every morning. And boy
o boy, are those crunchy girls in

40
00:03:23,479 --> 00:03:29,159
flakes grand eating? Ask your mother
to get you a package of wholesome delicious

41
00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:36,960
Kellard's Pets tomorrow. Remember the name
now, Pep Pep At Now the Adventures

42
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:40,159
of Superman, As you know,
Superman and his guise of saw Kent has

43
00:03:40,199 --> 00:03:44,400
now pitt us against the most powerful
criminal in the world, a mass of

44
00:03:44,479 --> 00:03:47,039
mind no one as the Vulture,
who has once again succeeded in getting his

45
00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:53,240
hands on the irreplaceable model of Doctor
Cameron's Mechanical Man. In our last episodes,

46
00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:55,840
we've heard of the Vulture enlisted the
aid of a man named Smith to

47
00:03:55,960 --> 00:04:00,039
build an eight foot replica of the
Mechanical Man, a notable monster to do

48
00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:04,199
his evil biddings. But more than
that, the Vulture is planning a campaign

49
00:04:04,199 --> 00:04:09,439
of vengeance against Clark Kent and Terry
White. As our last episode ended,

50
00:04:09,639 --> 00:04:12,960
Jimmy Olsen had falled into a trap
set for him by the Master Criminal,

51
00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:15,319
and this, if we learned,
was the first step in what the Vulture

52
00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:20,680
called an experiment in horror. Yet, strangely enough, as our story continues,

53
00:04:20,879 --> 00:04:24,839
we find Jimmy sitting in the lavish
study of the Vultures, hideout,

54
00:04:25,199 --> 00:04:29,240
very much at his ease as he
eats a large ice cream Sunday, and

55
00:04:29,319 --> 00:04:33,720
sitting across from him is the Vulture
himself. Listen, there, boy,

56
00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:36,959
that tasted good? And where'd you
enjoy the Jimmy's they listen, mister,

57
00:04:38,199 --> 00:04:41,759
just watch your game anyhow, you'll
find it a very interesting game. I

58
00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:44,759
think, just what don't you under
say? All? For one thing,

59
00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:46,600
I know I'm a prisoner here.
I try to get out. I find

60
00:04:46,639 --> 00:04:49,959
all the doors locked, the windows
two side. Do you haven't made any

61
00:04:49,959 --> 00:04:54,920
bones about telling me I can't lead. So I've got the feeling that this

62
00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:57,920
isn't just a nice, sociable party. That's right, Jimmy, Why I

63
00:04:57,959 --> 00:05:00,199
don't care it? Why are you
treating me so nice? Then I'll explain.

64
00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:04,959
For one thing, I dislike physical
pain so much that I am incapable

65
00:05:04,959 --> 00:05:09,759
of inflicting it on others. For
instance, if I were to torture you,

66
00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:14,279
I'm sure the torture would hurt me
more than it would you. Besides,

67
00:05:14,639 --> 00:05:17,199
if I inflicted pain on you,
I am certain you wouldn't give me

68
00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:20,759
the satisfaction of showing it, now, would you? Well bet I wouldn't.

69
00:05:20,879 --> 00:05:24,079
You can do what you like to
me. You never get me the

70
00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:27,240
bit for mercy as long as I
could hold out anyhow, quite so,

71
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:32,199
then there'd be no point in physical
torture, But mental torture there is something

72
00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:35,800
else. Again, If the principal
hitler uses, for instance, to force

73
00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:39,279
people to do his bidding, I
mean, you're going to make me do

74
00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:43,800
something for you? No much you
now? Look. Suppose Clark Kent and

75
00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:46,000
Lois Lane, an editor fight of
the Daily Planet, were led to believe

76
00:05:46,079 --> 00:05:50,439
that you were being tortured suppose you
yourself were to give them meting pleasure.

77
00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:54,839
You think I'd do a thing like
that, You're crazy those You want me

78
00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:57,480
to pull the all gag about calling
him on the phone and tell him you're

79
00:05:57,480 --> 00:06:00,279
torturing me? Eh? Oh No, nothing is crude than our vious,

80
00:06:00,319 --> 00:06:02,519
is that? Oh, that's what
I gonna do. You'll see to It's

81
00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:06,360
quite an a music and ingenious its
game. By the time I'm too came

82
00:06:06,439 --> 00:06:11,079
for me, others will believe that
I am torturing you as the Indians tortured

83
00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:14,720
by captives. They'll be in augh
frenzy to find you and stop it.

84
00:06:14,759 --> 00:06:17,519
And the fact that they won't be
able to find you practically by the man

85
00:06:18,439 --> 00:06:21,279
very amusic. Yeah, very funny. Oh you don't think so. No,

86
00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:25,800
that's a horrible thing to do.
Do anything you want to me anything

87
00:06:25,879 --> 00:06:29,240
here, but leave them alone.
Can't you stand it? I can stand

88
00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:31,519
anything. Do your worth. Don't
do anything to hurt my friend. Well,

89
00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:35,399
we'll see. I'll think over my
plan a little further before doing anything

90
00:06:35,439 --> 00:06:40,279
about it. However, you're still
in my prisoner, so I shall ask

91
00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:43,360
you to go back into that room
we've set aside for you. Okay,

92
00:06:43,399 --> 00:06:46,480
there's nothing else I can do right
now. Anyhow, into room now,

93
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:54,000
I'll lock you in if you don't
mind. A little foully played into my

94
00:06:54,120 --> 00:07:01,240
hands perfectly, ring for judgment,
well, Judson, everything work perfectly,

95
00:07:01,319 --> 00:07:04,519
sir. Good you met a recording
of that conversation I just had with the

96
00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:09,560
young man. I did, Sir, excellent By guiding the conversation. I

97
00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:12,920
managed to make him say yuck,
let me see it. I yes.

98
00:07:13,279 --> 00:07:16,000
Once he said, you can do
what you like to me. You'll never

99
00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:19,759
get me to beg for messages.
We can use that beautifully in the record

100
00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:25,000
I'm going to make. Then he
said, that's a horrible thing to do.

101
00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:28,160
Do anything you want to meet,
anything you hear, but leave them

102
00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:30,480
alone. Blendid material, sir,
or putting on the record. We're going

103
00:07:30,519 --> 00:07:34,360
to make it perfect. And also
in an angry tone, he used the

104
00:07:34,439 --> 00:07:39,639
one word no. We can use
that over and over again, Judson,

105
00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:43,240
just that one word no. I
must congratulate you, SA, You're a

106
00:07:43,319 --> 00:07:48,399
remarkably clever man. I am,
indeed, Judson, I am. I'll

107
00:07:48,399 --> 00:07:53,000
see now. Changes to the office
of editor White in the Daily Planet the

108
00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:56,800
time A few hours later, Edith
the Perry White. It's striding up and

109
00:07:56,839 --> 00:08:01,000
down his office angrily while Clark Kent
looks on Angio. You know it's about

110
00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:03,680
four of goals, chasing off on
a call across town the police headquarters,

111
00:08:03,759 --> 00:08:07,639
leaving that kid unguarded way a beautifully
planned job, do you know? I

112
00:08:07,759 --> 00:08:11,240
was expecting some sort of word from
Inspector Henderson about the mechanical man there.

113
00:08:11,759 --> 00:08:13,639
Naturally, when Lois called me and
said Henderson the telephone for me to come

114
00:08:13,639 --> 00:08:18,040
to headquarters right away, I went. When I got there and Henderson told

115
00:08:18,079 --> 00:08:20,839
me you hadn't called at all,
then I knew something was wrong. No,

116
00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:24,000
I suppose I shouldn't blame you can't. I had a fallen for the

117
00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:26,079
same prick myself. I guess,
after all, neither of us as superman.

118
00:08:26,519 --> 00:08:28,600
No, No, you're you're a
half right, well, I mean

119
00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:31,799
you've you've got something there, yes, And neither is that miracle man this

120
00:08:31,919 --> 00:08:35,799
who Deni of the underworld, who
calls him something vout her. He's no

121
00:08:35,919 --> 00:08:39,399
superman anymore than you or me.
If he could capture that kid right under

122
00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:41,840
our roses, we can get him
back, and we've got to get him

123
00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:43,080
back to here here, can't.
We've got to get him back and of

124
00:08:43,159 --> 00:08:46,120
course we do, and why keep
me here? Let me get out and

125
00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:50,080
get started on the search. We've
got to find out whether Vulture is new

126
00:08:50,159 --> 00:08:52,600
hideout is before we can rescue Jimmy, and we'll never do. It's sitting

127
00:08:52,639 --> 00:08:56,159
here here, staying here until Inspector
Henderson calls and lets us know what his

128
00:08:56,240 --> 00:09:00,159
men have uncovered. Basically, the
entire police force is calling us. Any's

129
00:09:00,159 --> 00:09:01,759
nothing we can do, but wait, it's blenty superman to do if you

130
00:09:01,799 --> 00:09:05,039
can only get away from here.
Hey, what's that? Or what do

131
00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:09,320
you say? Nothing? Nothing?
You said something about Superman I heard Wait,

132
00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:11,720
wait a minute, that may be
the inspect of Now why Davie?

133
00:09:13,879 --> 00:09:18,440
Oh yes, lois no no another
thing yet, but now lois in the

134
00:09:18,519 --> 00:09:20,799
name. I haven't hold on to
yourself. There's no point in crying.

135
00:09:20,639 --> 00:09:24,000
You are crying. I can hear
your steppling over the phone. I'll stop

136
00:09:24,039 --> 00:09:28,279
worrying. We'll find the boy.
But one well, this is one time

137
00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:31,759
that Superman is not here, and
that's all there is going all right,

138
00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:37,080
lois good bye, the fool girl
blubbering out something about the only Superman.

139
00:09:37,159 --> 00:09:39,960
We're here. Look, Jef,
I can't stay here waiting for that call

140
00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:41,559
from Henderson any longer. I want
to find Jimmy and I've got to get

141
00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:46,320
you'll stay here or I'll know the
reason why the Olsen's in trouble. That's

142
00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:48,639
the reason why. And I warn
you, excuse me, miss and wife.

143
00:09:48,639 --> 00:09:50,200
I could just to arrive for you. All right, all right,

144
00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:52,440
give it here, Give it here. I wonder what this is gonna be.

145
00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:58,480
Looks like a photograph record. There's
a record, one of those homemade

146
00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:03,080
things. Hello. Look what it
says on the label to Clark Kent,

147
00:10:03,399 --> 00:10:09,120

Heaven. Take to play it. Come

00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:16,399

again. Oh no, but this record

183
00:12:41,799 --> 00:12:45,480
is going to be mighty helpful,
So I'll take it with me. A

184
00:12:45,639 --> 00:12:48,840
vulture is clever, but this time
he's overstepped himself, given me the clue

185
00:12:48,879 --> 00:12:54,960
I was waiting for. This is
a job for Superman. There's not a

186
00:12:54,039 --> 00:13:01,120
moment to lose off of these clothes. Man. There we are, I'll

187
00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:09,559
with it, wind off and oh
oh hell away once again Superman, a

188
00:13:09,679 --> 00:13:13,039
man of steel, takes to the
trail. In just a moment, we'll

189
00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:18,120
return to the Adventures of Superman.
But right now here is another important message.

190
00:13:20,320 --> 00:13:22,240
The other day I happened to ask
my pal Jerry Lang which meal he

191
00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:26,080
liked best, breakfast, dinner,
or supper. Well, he didn't waste

192
00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:28,559
any time. He came right out
for breakfast. That's because, according to

193
00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:31,440
Jerry, a fell as likely to
be hungry as a bear in the morning,

194
00:13:31,519 --> 00:13:35,799
and everything just seems to taste better
right then, So I want to

195
00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:39,200
tip all of you off to something
really swell. Just you try treating yourself

196
00:13:39,279 --> 00:13:45,240
to a poll full of crisp crum
cheeks golden Kellard's pep for breakfast with plenty

197
00:13:45,279 --> 00:13:48,080
of milk, and see if that
doesn't make your breakfast a mighty fine occasion

198
00:13:48,159 --> 00:13:54,559
too. He has there there's something
about the grand light crispmas and real tempting

199
00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:58,080
flavor of pep that sure enough hits
the spot at breakfast time. So ask

200
00:13:58,159 --> 00:14:03,120
your mother to get you a package
of delicious Kellogg's Tap tomorrow and remember,

201
00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:16,000
get in set make good serial Kelloggs
tex And now back to Superman. Although

202
00:14:16,080 --> 00:14:18,440
we know that no harm has been
done to Jimmy Olsen, the Vulture has

203
00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:22,919
cleverly made an appear that the boy
is being tortured by using a recording of

204
00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:28,120
Jimmy's voice. But what did Superman
mean when he said the culture has been

205
00:14:28,159 --> 00:14:31,559
just a little too clever? What
clue has Superman found in the record and

206
00:14:31,720 --> 00:14:35,840
how will he be able to follow
that clue to the Vulture's hideout. Don't
