00:00:07,440 --> 00:00:12,039
Speaker 2: At a single bountin up on the skide. It's a bird,

00:00:12,279 --> 00:00:12,960
it's a plane.

00:00:13,080 --> 00:00:14,000
Speaker 1: That's Superman.

6
00:00:22,679 --> 00:00:24,280
Speaker 2: Invent yourself Superman.

adventure entitled The Ghost of Billy Baker.

19
00:01:17,439 --> 00:01:20,120
Speaker 3: There is nothing quite so dark and silence in the

20
00:01:20,159 --> 00:01:23,760
bowels of the earth, and the pitch blackness in the

21
00:01:23,799 --> 00:01:27,519
complete and utter silence. A whisper becomes an echoing shout,

22
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:30,920
and the faint beating of a human hearts like the

23
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:43,519
rhythmic pounding of a kettle town. The little coal mining

24
00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:46,079
town of Honeker is a disordered settlement of thirty or

25
00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:50,359
forty dirty clabbored houses, two company stores, and a saloon.

26
00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:54,079
Above the town, joined to it by two narrow roads,

27
00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:58,159
is the Honiker Valley coal Mine, a savage, ugly black

28
00:01:58,239 --> 00:02:01,480
scar on the side of a wooded hill. As our

29
00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:05,040

00:02:07,599 --> 00:02:09,960
an ancient car driven by the local taxi man.

32

Speaker 4: Ah can't take it no further, and he got the

33
00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:20,800

34

Speaker 7: I'd rather not think about it now. Let's get it

65
00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:27,120

66
00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:29,479

Speaker 2: I don't see any other.

68
00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:32,039
Speaker 9: How can we get in at the slots?

69
00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:33,280

00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:15,519

125
00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:16,040
Speaker 7: How do you do?

126
00:06:18,319 --> 00:06:18,439
Speaker 3: Uh?

127
00:06:19,199 --> 00:06:21,600
Speaker 2: We're from the Metropolis Daily Planet where we phoned you,

128
00:06:21,639 --> 00:06:23,759
but the local operator told us the mine wasn't accepting

129
00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:24,519
any calls.

130
00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:26,439
Speaker 6: The mine's closed down, yes.

131
00:06:26,319 --> 00:06:29,000
Speaker 2: I know, matter of fact, that's why we're here. One

132
00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:31,319
of the wire services carried a story something about the

133
00:06:31,319 --> 00:06:33,720
minds being haunted, and we thought you might be able

134
00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:34,639
to give us more details.

135
00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:39,439
Speaker 9: Tell them what's my boy done? Go out and tell them.

136
00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:43,360
Speaker 6: Get on back to your jack. Go on, don't they say?

137
00:06:43,639 --> 00:06:46,800
Speaker 5: You'll be sure to tell him, Tell him about my boy,

138
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:47,839
Billy Baker.

139
00:06:48,959 --> 00:06:50,439
Speaker 3: Sorry, you folks like to come in?

140
00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:55,839
Speaker 2: Oh, thank you, thanks, she stopped us on our way

141
00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:57,879
up from the gate. Seems to have an obsession about

142
00:06:57,879 --> 00:06:58,240
our boy.

143
00:06:59,079 --> 00:07:02,720
Speaker 3: Miss Lane's thank you. Now, by rights, I shouldn't be

144
00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:05,279
talking to you. Mister Henniker gave orders. He wants this

145
00:07:05,399 --> 00:07:09,720
thing quieter down. Up that's come a big city paper

146
00:07:09,759 --> 00:07:11,759
is interested in the crazy fool thing up here in

147
00:07:11,759 --> 00:07:12,199
the hills.

148
00:07:12,439 --> 00:07:15,480
Speaker 7: That's a good question, mister McGrath. Aunt a good question.

149
00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:18,720
Speaker 2: It's like anything else. We take orders too. We were

150
00:07:18,759 --> 00:07:19,759
sent here to get the story.

151
00:07:19,879 --> 00:07:20,720
Speaker 5: Don't ask us why.

152
00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:22,800
Speaker 2: If there's no story, we'll just turn around and go back.

153
00:07:22,879 --> 00:07:25,959
Speaker 3: Well, it's this story, all right, but I don't put

154
00:07:25,959 --> 00:07:29,600
me stuck in it. He's ignorant. People around here might

155
00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:30,240
but I don't.

156
00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:32,720
Speaker 7: Then, so you tell it to us, Miss McGrath.

157
00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:35,160
Speaker 6: I don't know, I said.

158
00:07:35,199 --> 00:07:39,639
Speaker 3: Mister Hunniker wants this quieter down. He's losing three thousand

159
00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:42,319
a day with the fit sidle the men don't come

160
00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:44,600
back soon, they'll sell out and turn his back on it.

161
00:07:44,639 --> 00:07:46,560
He's an old man with plenty of money. You don't.

162
00:07:47,199 --> 00:07:49,399
Speaker 2: We can promise you, mister McGrath. It isn't news. We

163
00:07:49,439 --> 00:07:50,040
won't touch it.

164
00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:53,600
Speaker 3: I mean anything I say is off the records.

165
00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:56,879
Speaker 2: That's what it wants to No, No, let's get this straights.

166
00:07:57,160 --> 00:07:59,439
If what you tell us is just local rumor or gossip,

167
00:07:59,519 --> 00:08:01,959
it's aughtful. Like if it's news, the kind of news

168
00:08:01,959 --> 00:08:03,920
we print, well, that's another story.

169
00:08:04,759 --> 00:08:05,560
Speaker 6: It's not all right to you.

170
00:08:06,839 --> 00:08:08,839
Speaker 3: Sounds all right depends how the work's ot.

171
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:10,800
Speaker 6: How much do you know?

172
00:08:11,199 --> 00:08:13,560
Speaker 2: Only what the wire story said that your workers had

173
00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:15,000
walked out because the mine was hot.

174
00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:17,720
Speaker 6: You don't know why they think it's hearted.

175
00:08:17,959 --> 00:08:22,439
Speaker 2: Nope, Well, a year.

176
00:08:22,279 --> 00:08:24,920
Speaker 3: Ago today one of our pick men took it into

177
00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:27,279
his head to do a little explorer of a condemned

178
00:08:27,319 --> 00:08:27,720
work off.

179
00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:29,560
Speaker 7: I'm sorry to interrupt, but what's.

180
00:08:29,399 --> 00:08:32,799
Speaker 3: The working as a tunnel or a pit man where

181
00:08:32,919 --> 00:08:34,200
coal can still be working?

182
00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:37,600
Speaker 6: Well, anyway, we shut this one up.

183
00:08:37,639 --> 00:08:39,639
Speaker 3: See on the count of the shore and was weak

184
00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:41,759
and the walls was get in the split, making it

185
00:08:41,879 --> 00:08:44,480
dangerous to dig coal in that. Yeah, that's right, But

186
00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:47,879
that didn't stop this boy. You knew the working was

187
00:08:47,919 --> 00:08:51,799
marked off, but he went in anyway. Well, we had

188
00:08:51,879 --> 00:08:54,279
kind of a bonus deel on me. And see coal

189
00:08:54,399 --> 00:08:56,279
was short, and I guess he figured he hit paved

190
00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:58,840
it and there was plenty of coal in the working,

191
00:08:58,879 --> 00:09:00,720
but it was too dangerous to get a dog.

192
00:09:01,279 --> 00:09:03,120
Speaker 7: Oh, oh, I can guess what's coming.

193
00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:06,799
Speaker 3: He guess right. He put the pick into the walls

194
00:09:06,799 --> 00:09:09,200
a couple of times, and before anyone could shout him

195
00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:09,559
out the.

196
00:09:09,519 --> 00:09:11,559
Speaker 6: Shore, and then the walls came down on top of

197
00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:12,320
him while.

198
00:09:12,279 --> 00:09:14,200
Speaker 3: A thousand tons of coal and rock.

199
00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:16,240
Speaker 2: And I'm suppose she got him out of lives.

200
00:09:16,279 --> 00:09:18,440
Speaker 3: They never got him out at all. Mustn't even me

201
00:09:18,519 --> 00:09:19,399
since trying.

202
00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:20,799
Speaker 7: Me, he's still begged the mind.

203
00:09:21,039 --> 00:09:21,440
Speaker 3: That's right.

204
00:09:22,639 --> 00:09:23,840
Speaker 6: His folks signed up papers.

205
00:09:23,879 --> 00:09:26,919
Speaker 3: Then it was all right, and mister Hacker agreed to

206
00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:28,559
take care of him for the rest of their lives.

207
00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:31,200
Even though it was the boy's foot. All w cost

208
00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:33,720
fifty thousand dollars to think a shaft and dig up

209
00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:37,360
that stuff. So we brought his minutester up, said a

210
00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:40,639
few words over him, and let him lay peaceful. What

211
00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:45,519
was his name, McCaul, Billy Baker. Billy Baker didn't know him, did.

212
00:09:45,399 --> 00:09:46,799
Speaker 7: You well know?

213
00:09:47,159 --> 00:09:48,840
Speaker 2: That old woman mentioned his name to her.

214
00:09:49,159 --> 00:09:53,039
Speaker 3: Oh she's his mother. Oh you see, his father died

215
00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:55,399
three or four months ago. We gave her a shack

216
00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:57,759
on the mind property. She kind of cleans up around

217
00:09:57,799 --> 00:09:58,240
the office.

218
00:09:58,279 --> 00:09:59,960
Speaker 6: You know, everybody around here knows.

219
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:00,879
Speaker 3: I didn't understand.

220
00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:04,559
Speaker 2: Let's get back to the story. You left Billy Baker

221
00:10:04,639 --> 00:10:05,600
buried in the old mine.

222
00:10:05,639 --> 00:10:09,679
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's right, you're ago today. Well, this morning when

223
00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:11,360
the night shift came up out of the work and

224
00:10:11,399 --> 00:10:13,440
they spread the room and they could hear Billy Baker's

225
00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:15,240
ghosts down there. Why yeah, that.

226
00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:16,960
Speaker 6: Was all the day crew needed.

227
00:10:17,639 --> 00:10:19,480
Speaker 3: Most of them look from the old country, and a

228
00:10:19,519 --> 00:10:22,600
lot of these people, well you know they're superstition.

229
00:10:22,799 --> 00:10:25,519
Speaker 6: Of course they wouldn't go near the chef. Finally I

230
00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:26,000
went down.

231
00:10:26,039 --> 00:10:27,960
Speaker 3: Of course, it's just a lot of cock and full.

232
00:10:27,919 --> 00:10:29,159
Speaker 7: What did the men say they hurt?

233
00:10:29,399 --> 00:10:29,720
Speaker 6: Oh?

234
00:10:29,879 --> 00:10:32,399
Speaker 3: No, some creaking and groaning, I guess.

235
00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:32,879
Speaker 6: Now.

236
00:10:32,919 --> 00:10:35,039
Speaker 3: You get that sometimes in the mine when the shore

237
00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:38,240
and sweats up and swells. But they will fit down,

238
00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:40,080
not them.

239
00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:41,200
Speaker 2: And that's the story.

240
00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:42,159
Speaker 3: Eh, that's it.

241
00:10:43,639 --> 00:10:48,240
Speaker 7: Well, all I can say is, as darkness falls, we

242
00:10:48,399 --> 00:10:50,960
leave the picturesque coal mine, delicou Hunter and.

243
00:10:50,919 --> 00:10:53,399
Speaker 9: Return to the big city where believe you mean.

244
00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:55,399
Speaker 7: Tark Cat, I'm going to give mister Perry White a

245
00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:59,000
big piece of my mind. Thank you for your patience.

246
00:10:59,039 --> 00:11:02,600
Speaker 2: Mister Macross, what was that?

247
00:11:02,879 --> 00:11:08,279
Speaker 6: Sounded like dynamite? That's stupid pools. What did they think

248
00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:09,279
that's gonna accomplish?

249
00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:09,919
Speaker 7: What happened?

250
00:11:10,159 --> 00:11:12,159
Speaker 3: I blew up the old chaff leading down into the

251
00:11:12,159 --> 00:11:16,519
contempted mind in seed idiot. I'd better rob them before

252
00:11:16,519 --> 00:11:18,720
they do any real damn shoot them? Are you by

253
00:11:18,759 --> 00:11:20,240
the shotgun? No, that's just a scare.

254
00:11:20,279 --> 00:11:21,679
Speaker 2: The more I'll go along with it. You don't mind

255
00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:21,960
my girl?

256
00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:24,799
Speaker 3: Okay by me, but the lady better stayed behind that

257
00:11:24,919 --> 00:11:25,919
kind of built tempered now.

258
00:11:26,039 --> 00:11:27,799
Speaker 2: Man, he's right, Lord's will only be a few minutes.

259
00:11:27,879 --> 00:11:28,679
Speaker 6: Are you coming? Yes?

260
00:11:30,879 --> 00:11:32,759
Speaker 3: Sometimes I think I ought to have my headache down?

261
00:11:32,879 --> 00:11:33,919
Speaker 2: Why do I bother with this?

262
00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:35,480
Speaker 6: Why don't I just pack up and leave?

263
00:11:35,519 --> 00:11:37,360
Speaker 2: Probably because you gotta kick out of mining coal?

264
00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:37,600
Speaker 9: Yeah?

265
00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:39,240
Speaker 6: Maybe, but the kick's not worth the blood.

266
00:11:39,279 --> 00:11:41,559
Speaker 3: That's something those crazy fools.

267
00:11:41,799 --> 00:11:43,759
Speaker 2: That chaff wasn't worse than anything wasn't now, but the

268
00:11:43,799 --> 00:11:45,720
stay plane at the charge to keep the blast by

269
00:11:45,799 --> 00:11:47,399
loose and showing in the main tunnel.

270
00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:50,879
Speaker 3: I'll say this for the and he was a kick

271
00:11:50,919 --> 00:11:51,960
after close lane.

272
00:11:52,759 --> 00:11:54,440
Speaker 2: I must be fifty mom.

273
00:11:55,120 --> 00:11:55,960
Speaker 6: All the old time.

274
00:11:57,440 --> 00:12:01,000
Speaker 2: All right, you guys, get off the property or full

275
00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:02,080

Speaker 6: They hear what I said.

277
00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:06,200
Speaker 5: He's no work for mine.

278
00:12:06,279 --> 00:12:09,120
Speaker 11: Work course, nobody's asking it to work. The mind, now

279
00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:14,720
get off the property. The night will blow your heads off.

280
00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:22,960
I'll count three, one, two, three, Wow, I did it.

281
00:12:23,759 --> 00:12:26,840
Speaker 3: They won't come back tonight. Let says tomorrow night, the

282
00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:29,919
next night, twenty of nights after that. I'm not gonna

283
00:12:29,919 --> 00:12:34,399
be responsible for what happens. Ken Uh, that's your name?

284
00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:36,279
Is the heat one to two your favors? Well, if

285
00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:39,360
I can gladly, I'm gonna call Honker and Harrisburg. I'm

286
00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:40,559
gonna put you on and let you tell him what

287
00:12:40,639 --> 00:12:41,440
you saw it tonight.

288
00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:43,240
Speaker 2: It will help and he'll be glad to let him

289
00:12:43,279 --> 00:12:44,440
sim let him close up.

290
00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:46,720
Speaker 6: I just don't want to be responsible. It's not worth it.

291
00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:48,120
Speaker 3: Come on, let's go back.

292
00:12:55,559 --> 00:12:57,559
Speaker 6: He needs this mind like he needs a hole in

293
00:12:57,639 --> 00:12:57,960
the head.

294
00:12:58,519 --> 00:12:59,840
Speaker 2: He's got five open faces.

295
00:13:00,039 --> 00:13:00,919
Speaker 6: It's over there squat.

296
00:13:01,039 --> 00:13:02,799
Speaker 3: The only reason he told down to this one because

297
00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:05,879
they named the town after them. So when I get

298
00:13:05,960 --> 00:13:07,840
him on the phone, you tell them what those crazy

299
00:13:07,919 --> 00:13:10,279
miners did it to night. Maybe that'll convince him her.

300
00:13:10,519 --> 00:13:12,360
Speaker 2: Hey, what happened to this lane?

301
00:13:13,879 --> 00:13:20,039
Speaker 6: Well? Maybe uh, maybe maybe she's watching the hands that lord.

302
00:13:21,679 --> 00:13:27,799
Speaker 2: Llowys, that's funny didn't follow us, did I don't think.

303
00:13:27,759 --> 00:13:32,039
Speaker 6: So, Lawys.

304
00:13:33,559 --> 00:13:36,679
Speaker 2: Llowyd, you don't think maybe she saw hike into town,

305
00:13:37,519 --> 00:13:39,799
not in the dark. No one else around.

306
00:13:39,879 --> 00:13:43,159
Speaker 3: Isn't no one except me in Granny Baker that you

307
00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:43,919

308
00:13:44,080 --> 00:13:44,919
Speaker 6: Can't no matter where she.

309
00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:46,720
Speaker 3: Went, she was only gone five minutes.

310
00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:49,639
Speaker 2: I don't see a sign of anyone out here as

Speaker 2: I should have heard you by now she was around

314
00:13:56,600 --> 00:13:57,559
How far is it the town?

315
00:13:57,679 --> 00:13:58,759
Speaker 6: Half mile down the hill?

316
00:13:58,879 --> 00:14:00,559
Speaker 2: No, she wouldn't try it at night.

317
00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:02,600
Speaker 6: What was that?

318
00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:05,360
Speaker 3: Sounded like the slack chain on the main shaft up.

319
00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:05,679
Speaker 6: To Come on?

320
00:14:05,759 --> 00:14:13,080
Speaker 3: Let's get a look, you shure m my graw positive

321
00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:15,480
that shaft car was up here at the top.

322
00:14:15,519 --> 00:14:17,879
Speaker 6: Well, day couldn't have been the weather place last one

323
00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:19,320
to use. It was a night ship when they came

324
00:14:19,399 --> 00:14:19,960
up this morning.

325
00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:21,600
Speaker 2: Now you say it at the bottom of the shaft,

326
00:14:21,799 --> 00:14:22,559
five hundred and.

327
00:14:22,639 --> 00:14:26,879
Speaker 3: Sixty seats down the card of hit the bottom. We

328
00:14:26,919 --> 00:14:29,919
heard the slack chain rapping. But miss Lane couldn't have

329
00:14:29,960 --> 00:14:31,960
taken the card down alone, not unless.

330
00:14:31,679 --> 00:14:33,879
Speaker 6: She's been around deep chafts mine. Well she hasn't.

331
00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:38,879
Speaker 3: Uh, there's no use looking down there, can't You can't

332
00:14:38,919 --> 00:14:39,480
see nothing.

333
00:14:39,679 --> 00:14:43,639
Speaker 2: You would be surprised. I can see the elevator car

334
00:14:44,919 --> 00:14:47,000
and I see two people walking along a tunnel.

335
00:14:47,039 --> 00:14:49,559
Speaker 6: What what do you answered me?

336
00:14:49,639 --> 00:14:52,080
Speaker 2: No, man alive can see down that shafts them is

337
00:14:52,159 --> 00:14:55,799
carrying a miners light. It's that old woman but Granny taker.

338
00:14:55,919 --> 00:14:57,759
Speaker 6: Yeah, look this year idea.

339
00:14:57,840 --> 00:15:00,279
Speaker 2: But Joe Kent, I'd just finish telling you that chaft

340
00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:02,399
is five hundred and sixty feet deep and pitched. I

341
00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:04,240
make my word for it. They're down there, Lois and

342
00:15:04,279 --> 00:15:05,480
the old woman. How do we bring that car?

343
00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:07,720
Speaker 3: I wait a minute, catting the price Lake Macral, I'm

344
00:15:07,759 --> 00:15:09,159
not gonna stand here arguing with chess.

345
00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:11,039
Speaker 2: Lane is down in that mine with a demanded person.

346
00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:11,639
She's danged.

347
00:15:11,639 --> 00:15:14,840
Speaker 3: I take it take it easy, and Granny take his

348
00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:16,120
promised she wouldn't hurt a fly.

349
00:15:16,279 --> 00:15:18,480
Speaker 2: Why didn't she take Loais miss lane down into the mine.

350
00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:20,600
Speaker 6: I'm not sure she did because you say so. Don't

351
00:15:20,639 --> 00:15:21,440
make it mcgral.

352
00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:23,279
Speaker 2: Either you bring that elevator car up or I'll get

353
00:15:23,279 --> 00:15:25,720
down that chaft under my own power. Then you're talking crazy.

354
00:15:25,759 --> 00:15:27,000
Am I able to do it? I'll have to put

355
00:15:27,039 --> 00:15:28,559
you to sleep. So make up your mind and make

356
00:15:28,559 --> 00:15:29,120
it up fast.

357
00:15:30,559 --> 00:15:32,600
Speaker 3: Okay, okay, that's the way you want it.

358
00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:35,720
Speaker 6: Throw that level, which one, the one on the right

359
00:15:35,799 --> 00:15:36,759
with his shiny handle.

360
00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:42,200
Speaker 2: You can't get down there alone, Kent without a light.

361
00:15:42,679 --> 00:15:43,360
Speaker 6: I can't go with it.

362
00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:45,120
Speaker 2: It kind of those miners might take it in their

363
00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:47,960
heads to come back. Don't worry about me, all right,

364
00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:50,639
but remember you're doing this on your own responsibility.

365
00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:53,519
Speaker 6: Anything happens down there, we got the boy of getting

366
00:15:53,559 --> 00:15:53,799
you out.

367
00:15:54,960 --> 00:16:00,480
Speaker 2: You'll die in the dark like Billy Faker. We'll be

368
00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:03,159
back in a moment for part two and the exciting

369
00:16:03,240 --> 00:16:06,639
climax of the ghost of Billy Baker. What first here

370
00:16:06,720 --> 00:16:15,679
is joy. Most of your listeners are well aware that

371
00:16:15,840 --> 00:16:18,600
millions of people in Europe are seriously in need of

372
00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:22,000
food and clothing, but not all of you are completely

373
00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:27,399
familiar with Care c Are. This is shown by possible

374
00:16:27,399 --> 00:16:32,320
post figures you see exclusive of Care packages. Private persons

375
00:16:32,559 --> 00:16:35,879
set two hundred and fifty million dollars worth of relief

376
00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:40,080
and gift packages to Europe last year alone. Now Care

377
00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:43,399
buys its supplies in huge quantities and operates on a

378
00:16:43,519 --> 00:16:47,200
non profit basis. For ten dollars, Care sends air mail

379
00:16:47,480 --> 00:16:50,320
one of several different types of packages to whomever you

380
00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:54,679
designate in fifteen different countries. Each food package is designed

381
00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:56,759
to supplement the rations of a family of four for

382
00:16:56,840 --> 00:16:59,679
a month. Just send ten dollars to Care, New York

383
00:16:59,759 --> 00:17:03,039
for a food package, or spactify one of Care's other packages.

384
00:17:03,399 --> 00:17:04,880
Give your name and address on the name of the

385
00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:08,039
address of the recipient. You'll receive as signed receipt upon delivery.

386
00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:16,319
Remember send more for less through Care. And Now back

387
00:17:16,400 --> 00:17:20,400
to the Adventures of Superman and part two of the

388
00:17:20,519 --> 00:17:30,799
Ghost of Billy Baker. Riding the elevator car.

389
00:17:30,799 --> 00:17:33,759
Speaker 3: Down the main shaft over mccraw's warnings and protests, Park

390
00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:36,319
Kent reaches the broad loading tunnel of the Honiker Mine,

391
00:17:36,400 --> 00:17:38,519
almost six hundred feet beneath the surface.

392
00:17:39,119 --> 00:17:40,200
Speaker 6: Other tunnels laid.

393
00:17:40,079 --> 00:17:43,000
Speaker 2: With narrow cape, pan out from it in both directions

394
00:17:43,599 --> 00:17:45,359
for a moment, can't stare it into the darkness.

395
00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:48,400
Speaker 3: Making use of Superman's amazing X ray visions, he can

396
00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:51,240
see clearly along the branch tunnels until they curve out

397
00:17:51,279 --> 00:17:54,200
of sight. But curiously enough, he cannot see through the

398
00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:57,960
thick black walls, or unknown to him, the coal mine

399
00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:01,240
is laced with deposits of lead, one substance through which

400
00:18:01,319 --> 00:18:05,480
his X ray vision cannot penetrate. Puzzled and confused, can't

401
00:18:05,559 --> 00:18:12,920
start down the main tunnel, calling for Lois, Lower, Lower,

402
00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:18,039
but the only reply is a mocking pickle fading down

403
00:18:18,119 --> 00:18:25,359
the tunnel, bouncing from wall to wall like a thing alive. Meanwhile,

404
00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:28,400
some distance from the main shaft, Lois and the old woman,

405
00:18:28,480 --> 00:18:31,519
Granny Baker, are approaching what seems to be a dead end,

406
00:18:31,960 --> 00:18:34,319
a heap of coal and rock and rubble reaching to

407
00:18:34,400 --> 00:18:35,279
the tunnel ceiling.

408
00:18:40,759 --> 00:18:44,640
Speaker 8: He is the place, he is where the old tunnel was.

409
00:18:44,839 --> 00:18:51,039
Come down. Now, now you just listen, you just listen close.

410
00:18:53,279 --> 00:18:54,160
Speaker 9: I don't hear anything.

411
00:18:56,400 --> 00:18:57,160
Speaker 8: You've got to wait.

412
00:18:57,359 --> 00:19:01,279
Speaker 10: He doesn't move all the time, Billy does When did

413
00:19:01,319 --> 00:19:04,200
you hear him that? I can't get down here except

414
00:19:04,279 --> 00:19:08,960
when the night shift is off. Sunday's mostly every Sunday.

415
00:19:09,279 --> 00:19:11,880
Speaker 7: You heard him last time, and nicely.

416
00:19:12,079 --> 00:19:16,920
Speaker 8: Is a bell even hurt his heart eaten? My billy

417
00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:21,279
was a strong one. You listen dearly, you listen close.

418
00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:25,000
Speaker 9: I'm sorry, but I don't hear him.

419
00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:34,759
Speaker 8: Let me get clos there moving not now, probably just

420
00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:40,839

421
00:19:41,960 --> 00:19:43,359
Ain't nobody down here now?

422
00:19:45,799 --> 00:19:48,480
Speaker 9: My billy boy scared him away day?

423
00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:51,920
Speaker 8: You just be patient, GIRLI did you hear him like

424
00:19:52,119 --> 00:19:52,559
I said?

425
00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:54,839
Speaker 7: Yes, I'm sure I will, but I think we'd better

426
00:19:54,880 --> 00:19:56,519
go back now. My friend will be waiting for me.

427
00:19:56,640 --> 00:20:00,880
Speaker 9: Do you think I'm crazy in the head like everyone else?

428
00:20:01,119 --> 00:20:01,920
Don't you know?

429
00:20:02,079 --> 00:20:02,559
Speaker 5: It isn't that.

430
00:20:04,039 --> 00:20:07,400
Speaker 8: You don't have to put on yes and do yourself

431
00:20:07,599 --> 00:20:08,200
right now?

432
00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:12,039
Speaker 9: Why did I ever come down here with this old

433
00:20:12,359 --> 00:20:13,400

434
00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:14,720

Speaker 9: I've got to let you hear it so you can

00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:26,319

00:20:36,799 --> 00:20:39,839
Speaker 9: I'll find my way back to shuffleone. Wouldn't that be

447
00:20:39,960 --> 00:20:42,759
a crazy thing for me to do? Leave my shelf

Speaker 8: Now pack what is it?

00:23:17,799 --> 00:23:18,200
Speaker 2: I don't know.

501
00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:21,279
Speaker 7: Sounds like the beating of a heart.

502
00:23:22,759 --> 00:23:23,279
Speaker 6: Maybe it is?

503
00:23:23,880 --> 00:23:24,160
Speaker 5: Who know?

504
00:23:24,640 --> 00:23:25,960
Speaker 9: Well what we gan to say?

505
00:23:26,119 --> 00:23:30,200
Speaker 2: Now you're right, Grannie, Suppose you take miss Lane back

506
00:23:30,240 --> 00:23:31,920
to the elevator. Chaf while I try to get your

507
00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:33,160
son out from behind these rocks.

508
00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:33,960
Speaker 9: I think you can.

509
00:23:34,119 --> 00:23:34,559
Speaker 6: I'll try.

510
00:23:35,079 --> 00:23:38,799
Speaker 9: Oh, I should be obliged. Come on, long, girl, follow.

511
00:23:38,599 --> 00:23:39,839
Speaker 6: Me what it is?

512
00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:40,720
Speaker 2: They go along with her.

513
00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:42,480
Speaker 3: I'll meet you with the sheaf and I'm a friend

514
00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:43,279
of a round.

515
00:23:43,359 --> 00:23:45,440
Speaker 6: Here go and lors, it's all right, don't worry.

516
00:23:45,480 --> 00:23:46,279
Speaker 7: What are you going to do.

517
00:23:46,759 --> 00:23:49,319
Speaker 2: I'm going to try to find out whether that's a heart.

518
00:23:49,599 --> 00:23:53,119
Speaker 3: Or a hope. Waiting in the complete and utter darkness

519
00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:55,119
until he is certain lower than the old woman are

520
00:23:55,160 --> 00:23:58,519
beyond earshot can't quickly complete the transformation from a mild

521
00:23:58,599 --> 00:24:01,519
mannered crime reporter to he roic, blue and red costumed

522
00:24:01,559 --> 00:24:06,440
figure of Superman. Then, turning to the solid wall of

523
00:24:06,519 --> 00:24:08,720
rock and rubble, he begins to tear it apart with

524
00:24:08,799 --> 00:24:12,319
his bare hands, throwing huge boulders and slabs have scaled

525
00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:13,960
one side as though they were pebbles.

526
00:24:14,720 --> 00:24:15,759
Speaker 6: Doesn't seem to be.

527
00:24:15,799 --> 00:24:20,240
Speaker 2: Any ends of this. There must be that creezy sound

528
00:24:20,559 --> 00:24:21,799
didn't come from nowhere.

529
00:24:22,119 --> 00:24:24,960
Speaker 3: Found head like a human screen shovel, Superman pours deeper

530
00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:27,200
and steeper into the mass of rock and rubble, finally

531
00:24:27,319 --> 00:24:30,839
breaks through into an open tunnel lit strangely enough, by

532
00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:34,160
a battery operated bulb suspended from a wire nailed across

533
00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:37,319
the ceilings. In one corner of the tunnel, half hidden

534
00:24:37,359 --> 00:24:40,359
behind a pile of rock, is a human skeleton with

535
00:24:40,519 --> 00:24:43,680
shreds of clothing still clinging to the bare dry bones.

536
00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:47,200
Suddenly he hears Lois's saint far off scream for help.

537
00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:52,720
Racing back along the main tunnel, he finds Lowers his

538
00:24:52,759 --> 00:24:54,319
shell and the old woman screaming.

539
00:24:54,359 --> 00:24:55,759
Speaker 2: Imprecations up the can.

540
00:24:56,160 --> 00:25:02,920
Speaker 9: Over your rugging sack away, Yes, what happens?

541
00:25:03,400 --> 00:25:10,359
Speaker 2: The elevator moves up with hold yourself is laying all right, Frenny,

542
00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:12,559
quite good?

543
00:25:12,680 --> 00:25:13,200
Speaker 3: Stand back.

544
00:25:13,559 --> 00:25:14,799
Speaker 2: It's dynamite for the life you.

545
00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:18,480
Speaker 6: I'll have to take the shaft. I'll be back for you.

546
00:25:19,480 --> 00:25:22,359
Speaker 3: Laving the dynamite with its short swatering fuse, Superman leaps

547
00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:24,079
up the shaft like an arrow shot from a bow,

548
00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:26,920
and keeps going until, with his strange power of light,

549
00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:29,319
he is hovering in the sky high above the mine.

550
00:25:29,839 --> 00:25:32,000
Then flinging the dynamite away from him, he watches it

551
00:25:32,079 --> 00:25:34,359
explodes safely harmlessly in empty air.

552
00:25:41,799 --> 00:25:43,039
Speaker 2: But his work is not done.

553
00:25:43,240 --> 00:25:45,240
Speaker 3: A human figure is running from the mine shaft to

554
00:25:45,359 --> 00:25:47,880
the company office, dropping down like a bird of prey.

555
00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:49,920
Speaker 2: Superman grabbed him as he reaches the door.

556
00:25:51,720 --> 00:26:05,319
Speaker 12: All right, draw the hearty's over, you're true, johns in

557
00:26:05,400 --> 00:26:07,720
the beginning cock and tells to me slowly.

558
00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:10,400
Speaker 2: Well, McGrath's covered another entrance to the portion of the

559
00:26:10,519 --> 00:26:12,759
mine that collapsed last year and trapped Billy Baker. It

560
00:26:12,839 --> 00:26:14,799
was a tunnel on the other side of the hill. Yes,

561
00:26:15,599 --> 00:26:18,079
he followed the tunnel a couple of months ago, discovered

562
00:26:18,119 --> 00:26:22,000
Billy Baker's body and something else. What the collapse of

563
00:26:22,079 --> 00:26:24,920
the tunnel walls That uncovered a deposit of uranium.

564
00:26:25,279 --> 00:26:25,799
Speaker 9: Uranium.

565
00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:26,279
Speaker 6: That's right.

566
00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:29,960
Speaker 2: He's been working that tunnel secretly at night. Last night

567
00:26:30,039 --> 00:26:31,480
the miners heard him moving around.

568
00:26:31,519 --> 00:26:33,240
Speaker 7: Oh, Granny Baker must have been hearing.

569
00:26:33,119 --> 00:26:34,000
Speaker 5: Him since he started.

570
00:26:34,119 --> 00:26:36,519
Speaker 2: He did when he worked at Sunday nights. He wasn't

571
00:26:36,559 --> 00:26:38,759
too concerned about keeping quiet because he thought the mine

572
00:26:38,799 --> 00:26:39,160
was empty.

573
00:26:39,519 --> 00:26:39,759
Speaker 5: Cock.

574
00:26:41,279 --> 00:26:43,319
Speaker 9: That that heart seat we heard he had.

575
00:26:43,200 --> 00:26:45,519
Speaker 2: A Geiger counter. That's the device that checked the presence

576
00:26:45,559 --> 00:26:46,039
of uranium.

577
00:26:46,079 --> 00:26:46,440
Speaker 6: Yes, I know.

578
00:26:46,839 --> 00:26:48,759
Speaker 2: The slow ticking of it from behind that wall of

579
00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:51,119
rock and in that echoing tunnel sounded like the beating

580
00:26:51,160 --> 00:26:51,960
of a heart and.

581
00:26:52,079 --> 00:26:54,039
Speaker 7: He did all this secretly in the hope that he

582
00:26:54,079 --> 00:26:55,880
could get the uranium or out for him.

583
00:26:55,759 --> 00:26:58,680
Speaker 2: Till that's right now from what the sheriff told me.

584
00:26:58,759 --> 00:27:01,240
