1
00:00:00,600 --> 00:00:02,879
Speaker 1: Presenting Superman.

2
00:00:06,200 --> 00:00:06,759
Speaker 2: Up in the sky.

3
00:00:07,160 --> 00:00:09,560
Speaker 3: Look, it's a word in plain.

4
00:00:09,640 --> 00:00:15,880
Speaker 4: It's Superman and now Superman. When we last left Superman,

5
00:00:15,960 --> 00:00:18,679
he arrived in Denver as Clark Kent news reporter to

6
00:00:18,760 --> 00:00:21,719
investigate a strange and deadly plot against the railroads of

7
00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:24,199
the West. He had been able to prevent the Continental

8
00:00:24,239 --> 00:00:27,359
Limited from being swept into a canyon by a rock slide,

9
00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:31,160
but now the unknown force is directed against the Silver

10
00:00:31,199 --> 00:00:35,439
Clipper crack train of the West Coast Railway. Mysterious messages

11
00:00:35,479 --> 00:00:38,520
have warned the Clipper, due to leave Denver at sundown,

12
00:00:38,799 --> 00:00:43,000
will never arrive in Salt Lake City. Morning newspapers have

13
00:00:43,039 --> 00:00:46,039
carried Kent's story of the rock slide, and while railroad

14
00:00:46,039 --> 00:00:50,159
officials and government men search desperately for clues, Kent himself

15
00:00:50,200 --> 00:00:53,439
walks briskly towards the Great Central Station for a conference

16
00:00:53,479 --> 00:00:59,079
with the division superintendent. Meanwhile, the plot moves on in

17
00:00:59,119 --> 00:01:02,960
a secret hiding place overlooking the railroad yard, the man

18
00:01:03,079 --> 00:01:07,799
called the Wolf talks with his subordinate KENO listen.

19
00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:11,599
Speaker 1: So very fine.

20
00:01:12,239 --> 00:01:15,159
Speaker 5: At last, the unbelieving fools begin to take me seriously.

21
00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:19,359
You have read the stories, Qino, I read him?

22
00:01:19,719 --> 00:01:21,519
Speaker 3: Well, why so sullen.

23
00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:22,719
Speaker 1: Well, I don't understand it.

24
00:01:23,159 --> 00:01:25,439
Speaker 5: I tell you that track was blocked for a hundred feet,

25
00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:27,680
and yet five minutes later in the continent that went

26
00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:31,120
right on through. Next time my friend pleased to observe

27
00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:34,480
more accurately. Obviously, the track was not blocked for one

28
00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:37,680
hundred feet. It was not blocked at all, But I

29
00:01:37,799 --> 00:01:40,280
tell you it was. You should join forces with a

30
00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:44,000
conductor of the train. He swears that a tremendous figure

31
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:46,879
in blue tights and a red cape appeared from nowhere,

32
00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:51,120
replaced the missing rails, cleared away twenty tons of rock,

33
00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:54,120
and made a safe passage for the train, all in

34
00:01:54,159 --> 00:01:57,840
a matter of minutes. Oh yes, yes, And he is

35
00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:01,920
now confined to the city hospital that conductor for observation.

36
00:02:02,159 --> 00:02:05,519
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I tell you I've seen the same thing myself.

37
00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:09,840
Speaker 5: My friend, we have no time for pipe dreams. You

38
00:02:09,879 --> 00:02:13,879
were deceived by shadows, and now listen, there's work we do.

39
00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:14,680
Speaker 1: I'm listening.

40
00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:18,360
Speaker 5: I note that this story is signed by that newspaper

41
00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:21,080
man Clark Kent, the one who was on the train. Well,

42
00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:23,759
I told you I should like to be better informed.

43
00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:27,080
That fellow seems to know a great deal how he

44
00:02:27,159 --> 00:02:31,319
knows I have no idea, but he does also.

45
00:02:31,599 --> 00:02:34,520
Speaker 1: I have checked up on him. He was assigned to.

46
00:02:34,439 --> 00:02:37,879
Speaker 5: Cover the story back east and seems to have arrived

47
00:02:37,879 --> 00:02:42,439
out here incredibly soon. Must have flown, undoubtedly, But that's

48
00:02:42,479 --> 00:02:45,439
neither here nor there. Do you know where he is now?

49
00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:48,199
Speaker 1: I did what you told me. I trailed him. He

50
00:02:48,319 --> 00:02:50,919
left his hotel to go see the divisional superintendent of

51
00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:51,560
the railroad.

52
00:02:51,599 --> 00:02:55,479
Speaker 5: Did he How lucky, lucky, We'll kill two birds with

53
00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:59,639
one stone. We've got them on the run. They worried,

54
00:02:59,719 --> 00:03:00,960
Keno and frightened.

55
00:03:01,159 --> 00:03:02,280
Speaker 1: I hope you're right.

56
00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:04,120
Speaker 5: I don't know which way to turn up to believe

57
00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:07,039
they'd like to keep the Silver Clipper in Denver to night.

58
00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:10,439
But they don't dare They don't dare, Keno. They can't

59
00:03:10,479 --> 00:03:16,719
admit they're terrified, and wait till they get my telegram.

60
00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:17,960
Speaker 1: Telegram.

61
00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:20,879
Speaker 5: Can you dress up like a messenger Keno uniform and

62
00:03:20,879 --> 00:03:24,560
so on? Oh sure, excellent, excellent. You will put on

63
00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:28,479
your fake uniform and take this wire also fake to

64
00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:32,199
the superintendent now at once. If you have luck, you'll

65
00:03:32,199 --> 00:03:36,080
find him with mister Clark Kent. You will also find

66
00:03:36,199 --> 00:03:40,759
I think that he is trying to locate a missing engine, keno,

67
00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:46,479
missing engine, just so if he finds it, I'll eat it. Humhm,

68
00:03:46,759 --> 00:03:50,439
never mind, it's your uniform on Keno. Deliver the telegram

69
00:03:50,479 --> 00:03:53,319
personally and bring back as much of a conversation as

70
00:03:53,319 --> 00:03:58,560
you can. Do you understand now? Now there's that conductor's story.

71
00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:03,800
Quite the funniest bleeding i've seen this week. A superman,

72
00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:09,080
ah appearing out of the nut Where where?

73
00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:18,360
Speaker 1: Hello as the superintendent? Speed? What? Trace it again? Trace

74
00:04:18,399 --> 00:04:19,240
it from both ends.

75
00:04:19,079 --> 00:04:22,759
Speaker 2: Of the line, ah, nuts, don't tell me you can't

76
00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:25,040
find it. Do you think a locomotive and tender could

77
00:04:25,079 --> 00:04:28,199
vanish into thin air? Check every's station master and call

78
00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:28,600
me back.

79
00:04:29,879 --> 00:04:33,240
Speaker 1: I'm sorry. Oh that's that's quite a rush, stupid idiot.

80
00:04:33,959 --> 00:04:36,480
Speaker 2: Look here, we sent a stair engine intended on the

81
00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:38,720
line last night, and now they can't tell.

82
00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:39,360
Speaker 1: Me where it is?

83
00:04:39,439 --> 00:04:41,040
Speaker 3: What on the main line?

84
00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:44,680
Speaker 2: Certainly, never mind, let's get back to this business the.

85
00:04:44,639 --> 00:04:46,279
Speaker 1: Continental Any more?

86
00:04:46,319 --> 00:04:47,439
Speaker 3: News of that conductor?

87
00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:50,160
Speaker 1: Oh not so far? Poor fellows out of his mind?

88
00:04:51,439 --> 00:04:53,959
Speaker 6: What do you suppose he thought he saw all that

89
00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:56,199
business about a superman? Is?

90
00:04:56,279 --> 00:04:58,839
Speaker 2: I only wish to heaven they'd never printed it. I

91
00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:02,079
didn't report that, Believe me. I know, And I look here, Kemp,

92
00:05:02,319 --> 00:05:04,800
I've checked with your paperbagies and they tell me that

93
00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:06,879
it's all right, that you're here to do what you can.

94
00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:08,519
Speaker 1: Now, what do you want to know?

95
00:05:09,199 --> 00:05:12,000
Speaker 3: Well? First of all, have you any idea what's back

96
00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:13,040
of this trouble.

97
00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:15,439
Speaker 2: On the railroads? Not the slightest If you ask me,

98
00:05:15,519 --> 00:05:17,920
there's a lunatict. Lie, don't you believe it?

99
00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:21,720
Speaker 1: What else can I believe? It's too senseless? Utterly? Man?

100
00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:24,959
Speaker 2: Who you had warnings here's which we ignored, and we

101
00:05:24,959 --> 00:05:27,000
get them all the time from cranks and nuts.

102
00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:28,480
Speaker 3: But these warnings came true.

103
00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:29,680
Speaker 1: So out of it?

104
00:05:30,079 --> 00:05:32,639
Speaker 3: Do you still think they came from cranks and nuts?

105
00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:34,959
Speaker 1: All right, Kent? What do you think?

106
00:05:35,879 --> 00:05:38,680
Speaker 6: I think that one man or a group of men

107
00:05:38,759 --> 00:05:41,040
is trying to paralyze the country with fear?

108
00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:41,959
Speaker 1: Is? But why?

109
00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:46,079
Speaker 3: I'm afraid we'll find that out later unless we can

110
00:05:46,079 --> 00:05:46,600
stop them.

111
00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:49,879
Speaker 2: Good Lord, We've got to stop them. This can't go on, Kent.

112
00:05:50,319 --> 00:05:51,399
Speaker 3: I will do what we can.

113
00:05:51,959 --> 00:05:54,920
Speaker 1: What do you suggest? I suggest that you don't.

114
00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:56,720
Speaker 3: Let the Silver Clipper leave Denver tonight?

115
00:05:56,920 --> 00:05:58,560
Speaker 1: Oh, Ken, she's got to leave.

116
00:05:59,079 --> 00:06:01,360
Speaker 2: Can you imagine what reaction would be if she didn't

117
00:06:01,759 --> 00:06:03,560
you're taking a chance and we can't help that.

118
00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:04,160
Speaker 1: She's got to go.

119
00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:07,879
Speaker 3: Then we must work fast. If they haven't this evening,

120
00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:09,639
I have one more idea.

121
00:06:09,759 --> 00:06:11,040
Speaker 1: Yes, what is it? Well?

122
00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:13,920
Speaker 3: If you read my story carefully, you'll see that I

123
00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:15,800
am bye. I know more than I print here.

124
00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:16,040
Speaker 1: As I did.

125
00:06:16,199 --> 00:06:19,079
Speaker 2: Notice that I don't do you not yet, but I

126
00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:22,959
expect to how the people back of this, particularly the

127
00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:24,279
man called the Wolf.

128
00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:26,959
Speaker 3: We'll want to know just what I do know and

129
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:28,240
where I got it.

130
00:06:28,439 --> 00:06:32,079
Speaker 6: Well, I propose to show myself around until he catches

131
00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:33,279
up with me, will he?

132
00:06:33,879 --> 00:06:36,879
Speaker 3: I think so I was shadowed this morning on my

133
00:06:36,959 --> 00:06:37,399
way here.

134
00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:39,000
Speaker 1: Good luck you were. So.

135
00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:41,920
Speaker 6: I think he and his friends are just waiting their chance,

136
00:06:42,319 --> 00:06:43,480
and I'm going to give it to them.

137
00:06:43,519 --> 00:06:44,839
Speaker 1: Oh, kimp, don't do it.

138
00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:47,000
Speaker 2: Why if they'd wreck a train where they wouldn't think

139
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:48,279
twice about about.

140
00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:49,000
Speaker 3: Putting me out of the way.

141
00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:52,680
Speaker 1: Yes, don't worry, But why what's the idea?

142
00:06:52,879 --> 00:06:55,639
Speaker 2: While they're finding out how much I know, I may

143
00:06:55,639 --> 00:06:57,920
be finding out one or two little items about.

144
00:06:57,639 --> 00:07:02,000
Speaker 1: Them, and I only hope here. How long have you

145
00:07:02,079 --> 00:07:03,160
been standing there? Messenger?

146
00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:03,399
Speaker 6: Oh?

147
00:07:03,399 --> 00:07:07,480
Speaker 5: I just come boss you the divisional superintendent telegram?

148
00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:10,199
Speaker 1: Yes, sir, er for you personally. They told me to

149
00:07:10,199 --> 00:07:12,120
bring it right in. I seen the door was open,

150
00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:12,759
so I awoke.

151
00:07:12,879 --> 00:07:21,079
Speaker 2: They've found that engine. Well that's all messenger, get out? Yes, no, wait, hey,

152
00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:22,560
where'd you get this wire?

153
00:07:22,720 --> 00:07:25,720
Speaker 1: Huh? Why the office give it to me? Set to

154
00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:27,040
bring it right over? All right?

155
00:07:27,079 --> 00:07:31,240
Speaker 2: All right, go on close the door behind you. Hey, ken,

156
00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:35,360
listen to this. Yes, where an engine is now, a

157
00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:40,079
train will be tomorrow. The silver clepper will vanish like smoke,

158
00:07:40,639 --> 00:07:42,680
never to be seen by the eyes of living men.

159
00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:44,959
Speaker 3: Hell well, sounds like black magic.

160
00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:47,839
Speaker 1: I don't believe it. Why they never dare? Oh they dare?

161
00:07:47,879 --> 00:07:48,199
All right?

162
00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:50,160
Speaker 3: Is that telegram signed?

163
00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:53,519
Speaker 1: Yes, it's signed the Wolf? The wolf?

164
00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:58,759
Speaker 6: Okay, mister Superintendent. Huh that tuttles it? Had that wire checked?

165
00:07:58,839 --> 00:08:00,680
Find out who sat it and when and from where?

166
00:08:00,720 --> 00:08:03,360
If you can, I guess is you'll discover it's fate.

167
00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:05,920
I wish we'd held that messenger, Kemp, what are you

168
00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:07,639
going to do? Just what I said I'd do. Put

169
00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:10,839
myself in the hands of the wolf and see who wins.

170
00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:16,600
Speaker 1: Superintendent speaking what what? Why? Look here, that's not possible.

171
00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:18,959
It can't be matter of life.

172
00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:22,000
Speaker 2: Think what you're saying, now, look here, you tell that

173
00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:23,600
ruder report here in my office.

174
00:08:23,759 --> 00:08:24,160
Speaker 1: That's right.

175
00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:26,879
Speaker 2: At once I got prison that I've found out something,

176
00:08:27,319 --> 00:08:29,720
anything new. Why, it's the silliest thing I have heard.

177
00:08:30,439 --> 00:08:33,200
Wait that telegram? What an engineer is?

178
00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:36,159
Speaker 1: Now? I don't believe it. I don't believe it for

179
00:08:36,159 --> 00:08:39,120
a minute. What is it, Kent? That look motive intended?

180
00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:42,320
It passed through Kington eleven fifteen. Yes, and it passed

181
00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:43,759
through Richville eleven fifty.

182
00:08:43,799 --> 00:08:47,399
Speaker 2: Well, it should have reached Louisbourg at twelve forty, just thirty.

183
00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:49,799
Speaker 1: Minutes later, and it didn't. It wasn't on time, on time.

184
00:08:50,279 --> 00:08:52,279
I had never got that all. Well, that's easy. It

185
00:08:52,399 --> 00:08:55,159
left the rail somewhere in between. Yes, you'd think so.

186
00:08:55,559 --> 00:08:58,320
Speaker 2: But listen to this. A crew left Richville and a

187
00:08:58,360 --> 00:09:01,120
crew left Louisbourg. They met we're in between just now

188
00:09:01,159 --> 00:09:03,840
on broad day life, and neither crew had seen the

189
00:09:03,919 --> 00:09:07,080
sign of that engine anywhere. That's not possible. No, No,

190
00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:10,080
it isn't. Is it black magic? Isn't that what you

191
00:09:10,159 --> 00:09:10,399
call it?

192
00:09:10,480 --> 00:09:14,159
Speaker 1: Kent? I think I'm going mad like that conductor? Well,

193
00:09:14,559 --> 00:09:15,519
what are you going to do?

194
00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:20,240
Speaker 2: I'm going out to hunt wolves.

195
00:09:21,279 --> 00:09:22,919
Speaker 3: Anybody looking now?

196
00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:25,159
Speaker 1: Quick? Out of these clothes.

197
00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:35,320
Speaker 7: Now that window. Goodbye the Clark Kent temporarily. The Superman's

198
00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:37,399
turn now to find out where those devils are hiding.

199
00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:39,240
And so listen while they tell me what they know

200
00:09:42,279 --> 00:09:46,200
up up over the yards, circle around a bit. Hah,

201
00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:52,080
there goes that messenger. Watch him, watch him.

202
00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:54,639
Speaker 1: I land on that roof. Look down in the street.

203
00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:01,039
Speaker 7: There he goes, the messenger into that house with the

204
00:10:01,039 --> 00:10:01,799
broken railing.

205
00:10:02,519 --> 00:10:03,799
Speaker 1: All then, I think I'll.

206
00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:07,480
Speaker 5: Become Clark Kent again, respectable representative of the daily Planet.

207
00:10:08,279 --> 00:10:11,000
Speaker 7: I just walk casually down that street and see what

208
00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:12,679
happens down we go.

209
00:10:17,039 --> 00:10:19,759
Speaker 5: So he thinks he'll find out one or two little

210
00:10:19,799 --> 00:10:22,000
items about us. Sock you know, Yeah, that's what he

211
00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:25,159
said before they saw me standing there. I think I

212
00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:29,240
should like to question that young man on various angles

213
00:10:29,240 --> 00:10:33,000
of the so interesting story he wrote this morning's paper.

214
00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:36,720
Speaker 1: What are you doing by the window? Hey? Hey, down

215
00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:39,000
there down there in the street. Look what is it? It's

216
00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:41,960
him walking right into the house. What that is that

217
00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:43,600
Clark Kent? How did he know where to find me?

218
00:10:43,639 --> 00:10:45,759
Who told him? I don't know. I don't look at

219
00:10:45,759 --> 00:10:46,200
me like I.

220
00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:47,679
Speaker 5: Already know which way to take to get here he's

221
00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:48,000
search me.

222
00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:53,200
Speaker 1: Boy knows too much? How does he know? Quick? You downstairs? Hey, boss,

223
00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:54,679
what are you gonna do with him as a fault

224
00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:55,360
below us? You know?

225
00:10:55,799 --> 00:10:58,799
Speaker 5: Steal lined and sound proof with various devices to bring

226
00:10:58,799 --> 00:11:01,440
out information. You're gonna up there for a time for

227
00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:02,799
a little conversation, my friend.

228
00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:06,360
Speaker 1: Stop, stop to the people. Is he coming here? Right

229
00:11:06,399 --> 00:11:07,080
this way? Hey?

230
00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:08,480
Speaker 3: Wait a minute, is anyone else in the alley?

231
00:11:08,639 --> 00:11:10,919
Speaker 5: No, it's empty. Here he comes. We'll jump out and

232
00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:12,519
clip hunt. Be ready with your black jack.

233
00:11:12,679 --> 00:11:15,600
Speaker 1: Now, hey, where are you going? Quick? You know? Let

00:11:15,679 --> 00:11:16,120

240
00:11:26,399 --> 00:11:28,919
Speaker 1: Someone may have heard us out trying to hang back out?

241
00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:32,840
Fixed up? Hit me up, shop inside now close it.

242
00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:38,759
