1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:08,720
Speaker 1: Presenting the transcription feature Superman Up in the sky. It's

2
00:00:08,720 --> 00:00:10,160
a bird, It's a way.

3
00:00:10,720 --> 00:00:16,839
Speaker 2: It's Superman, mysterious visitor from about the world who has

4
00:00:16,879 --> 00:00:19,879
appeared on Earth as Champion of the Week and the Oppress.

5
00:00:20,760 --> 00:00:23,640
When we last saw Superman in his character of Clark Kent,

6
00:00:23,760 --> 00:00:26,559
news reporter for the Daily Planet, he had just learned

7
00:00:26,559 --> 00:00:30,079
that the two swindlers, Bartley Pemberton and Joseph Denen, were

8
00:00:30,199 --> 00:00:32,960
heading south in a high speed cruiser in order to

9
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:35,399
catch up with the freights deeper Madison on her way

10
00:00:35,399 --> 00:00:36,039
to Charleston.

11
00:00:36,759 --> 00:00:38,039
Speaker 1: As our story continues to.

12
00:00:38,079 --> 00:00:41,679
Speaker 2: Day, Superman is winging his way down the coast, straining

13
00:00:41,679 --> 00:00:43,880
his eyes for the first glimpse of the powerboat or

14
00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:46,719
the freighter, but Pemberton and Deneen have caught up with

15
00:00:46,759 --> 00:00:50,119
the Madison. Four sharp blasts of their whistle red rockets

16
00:00:50,159 --> 00:00:53,520
distress signals, and the traper is motionless in the black water,

17
00:00:53,960 --> 00:00:57,560
waiting for the smaller boat to come alongside. On the

18
00:00:57,600 --> 00:01:00,359
deck of the cruiser, Bartley Pemberton gives a last quick

19
00:01:00,439 --> 00:01:01,520
order to the man at the wheel.

20
00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:07,400
Speaker 1: Listen, pay attention to sailor. Okay, cat, I get fast

21
00:01:07,439 --> 00:01:09,519
part they're dropping a ladder over the side. Hit her

22
00:01:09,599 --> 00:01:12,319
in there, sailor, and get this. I'm listening. We're going

23
00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:13,719
on board that fraizer to get something.

24
00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:16,079
Speaker 3: You understand. If we don't get it, there may be trouble,

25
00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:18,640
big trouble. So stick around to pick us up. We'll

26
00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:20,480
want to make a fast get away, so stay cross.

27
00:01:20,519 --> 00:01:22,959
Speaker 1: Ready to beat it. Get that pot. What do we

28
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:25,920
do now? Stand by to grab that ladder? Joe, all right, Taylor?

29
00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:28,920
Speaker 4: Oh hi, on that cruiser we're waiting for you.

30
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:32,000
Speaker 1: Don't worry. You won't wait long. Go ahead, Taylor, Edge

31
00:01:32,079 --> 00:01:38,280
in toward that ladder. All right, mister Burns, hold her

32
00:01:38,359 --> 00:01:40,040
under a dead slow bell. We see what's wrong with

33
00:01:40,079 --> 00:01:41,519
those fellows? H I Ken Anderson?

34
00:01:43,239 --> 00:01:44,079
Speaker 4: Ah, Hi down there?

35
00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:47,000
Speaker 1: What about the cruiser? What's wrong with it? Captain said?

36
00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:48,560
Two men are coming up the ladder.

37
00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:48,959
Speaker 5: They want to.

38
00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:51,599
Speaker 4: See you, They want to see me. Ask them what

39
00:01:51,599 --> 00:01:53,239
they mean by sounding the stress signals?

40
00:01:53,239 --> 00:01:55,719
Speaker 1: From there? They are cat'n. I'ming over the rail. Now,

41
00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:57,159
what do you want done with it?

42
00:01:57,719 --> 00:02:00,000
Speaker 4: Better have a mighty good reason for stopping us, mister Burns.

43
00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:01,640
Speaker 1: If they have not put them in irons.

44
00:02:02,599 --> 00:02:05,480
Speaker 4: Oh right there, bring those two men up to my cabin.

45
00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:07,239
Anybody else coming aboard?

46
00:02:07,439 --> 00:02:08,719
Speaker 1: I'll further say that's all.

47
00:02:09,199 --> 00:02:15,000
Speaker 4: Mister Burns, hold is steady, steady, yes, sir, let's keep

48
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:15,560
an eye on the weather.

49
00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:18,719
Speaker 1: Mister Burns sticking up. Very good, sir, sound your foghorn

50
00:02:18,719 --> 00:02:21,599
while we're hove too. Have mister Owlson bring those men.

51
00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:22,120
Speaker 3: To my cabin.

52
00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:27,879
Speaker 2: And a few moments later, Pemberton and Denin are utterered

53
00:02:27,879 --> 00:02:29,400
to Captain Anderson's cabin.

54
00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:34,680
Speaker 1: Come in here they are, say the two men off

55
00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:38,080
the cruiser, come in, gentlemen. Oh captain? Am I addressing

56
00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:41,479
Captain Vincent Anderson? Yes, sir, you are the captain.

57
00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:43,439
Speaker 3: My friend and I have followed your ship, the Madison,

58
00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:45,360
all the way down the coast, hoping to catch.

59
00:02:45,199 --> 00:02:46,879
Speaker 1: Up with you. Do you know you've stopped a vessel

60
00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:49,719
and government spils government service? I thought this with the

61
00:02:49,719 --> 00:02:52,360
freighter a tramp. Thank you for your description of a sir,

62
00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:56,120
as it happens by carrying munition, who are listened? That

63
00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:57,680
a bit dangerous, Captain.

64
00:02:57,400 --> 00:03:00,319
Speaker 4: Don't worry transporting gun cotton and team tea. This isn't

65
00:03:00,319 --> 00:03:02,960
half as dangerous as giving false signals of distress, as

66
00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:03,599
you'll find out.

67
00:03:03,719 --> 00:03:07,039
Speaker 3: Just let us explain captain. Captain Anderson, we've been sent

68
00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:09,560

00:03:09,599 --> 00:03:12,360
you a certain package of papers, didn't she sealed.

70
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:14,840
Speaker 1: In oil skin? What up? Are they not safe there

71
00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:17,800
in the wall? What business is it of yours? Sister

72
00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:20,199
told us to get them, so there isn't too much trouble, Captain.

73
00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:23,319
Speaker 4: One moment, mister, I suppose my sister gave you written

74
00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:24,800
instructions a letter.

75
00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:27,960
Speaker 1: Well, no, as a matter of fact, she didn't. She

76
00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:28,719
didn't have time.

77
00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:32,360
Speaker 4: Oh she didn't have time. Well, I'm sorry, gentlemen, but

78
00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:35,319
I don't believe No. Look here I say, I don't

79
00:03:35,319 --> 00:03:38,319
believe you. If this thing was so all fired important,

80
00:03:38,319 --> 00:03:40,560
you'll follow me down the coat, make use of fake

81
00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:42,159
distress signals to get me to pick you up.

82
00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:44,680
Speaker 1: You ought to be able to prove what you say. Listen, Captain,

83
00:03:45,039 --> 00:03:46,400
we've got to have those papers.

84
00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:48,599
Speaker 4: You'll get them when we land at Charleston. And I've

85
00:03:48,599 --> 00:03:50,520

86
00:03:50,599 --> 00:03:53,680
Speaker 1: There's that true, Captain Anderson, stand where your optiase? Why

87
00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:55,759

Nothing doing pod at the blow? Didn't he say there

00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:10,360
was soap in the hole. That's right, carrying your missions,

93
00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:11,080
aren't you, Captain?

94
00:04:11,439 --> 00:04:13,199
Speaker 3: Show us how to get to the hold, find out,

95
00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:15,479
I said, take us to the whole, Captain, I'm not fooling.

00:04:15,759 --> 00:04:18,600
Speaker 1: Open the door, Joe. Now listen to me, Captain Anderson.

00:04:18,879 --> 00:04:20,800
You're going to take us down along the deck and

101
00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:27,959

00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:38,279
Speaker 1: I'll move.

106
00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:50,279
Speaker 2: Out of the captain's cabin along the deck and into

107
00:04:50,319 --> 00:04:52,399

108
00:04:53,519 --> 00:04:57,759

00:05:09,199 --> 00:05:11,000
and they don't get them out of the safe, they'll

115
00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:13,319
remain in the safe, and the safe will remain on

116
00:05:13,399 --> 00:05:14,680

Speaker 2: What I mean to do, Captain thesons to remove everybody traced.

121
00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:23,519
Speaker 1: Up you and your ship way, you'd never tear. You're

122
00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:26,319
out of your mind. You're a plain man. Then help

123
00:05:30,079 --> 00:05:33,240

124
00:05:33,319 --> 00:05:35,560
Speaker 4: Listen, they're really going to board the whole boat.

125
00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:39,040
Speaker 1: Why not quickly? Fighter right down here, far enough off

126
00:05:39,079 --> 00:05:41,199
to give us time to cut ourselves and then we'll

127
00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:41,560
beat it.

128
00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:42,279
Speaker 4: Nobody will ever know.

129
00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:45,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, help me break into this case. It's more dangerous.

Keep away from fire. It's all right right, I rip

139
00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:20,079
glow in the darkness of the hold, A thin spiral

140
00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:23,560
of smoke creeping up the companionway and curling out above

141
00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:27,920
the hatch covers on deck. Then sudden alarm, shouting and confusion,

142
00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:33,639
while ringing up alarm belts and credit orders.

143
00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:37,199
Speaker 1: Hey, where's the captain? Where's ma come?

00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:57,879
Here's the cruise that comes from the park. Come on, Joe,

153
00:06:57,879 --> 00:06:59,399
over the rail for it to swim.

154
00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:06,879
Speaker 2: Come on, fire report the steamer Madison, loaded with high

155
00:07:06,959 --> 00:07:10,439
explosive shells and T and T boats go over the

156
00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:14,600
side full frantically for safety. And meanwhile, high up in

157
00:07:14,639 --> 00:07:17,720
the night skies, Superman sees a glow on the sea and.

158
00:07:17,839 --> 00:07:23,560
Speaker 1: Heads swiftly downward. What's that? Looks like a fire on

159
00:07:23,639 --> 00:07:27,560
the water, and it looks like the Madison too. Down

160
00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:29,399
we go down down.

161
00:07:31,839 --> 00:07:34,759
Speaker 5: It is the Madison. She's a fire in the manifact

162
00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:37,079

00:07:37,079 --> 00:07:39,079

Captain Madison?

166
00:07:51,639 --> 00:07:52,959
Speaker 4: Ohia, and miss Dawson.

167
00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:55,839
Speaker 1: Is the captain in your boat? Oh? I thought he

168
00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:59,399
was with you with me? He's still on pug. We've

169
00:07:59,399 --> 00:08:01,600
got to go back packed the captain. That sir, look

170
00:08:01,639 --> 00:08:03,480
at it. You'll go up any second. We can't go

171
00:08:03,639 --> 00:08:04,000
back now.

172
00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:11,959
Speaker 5: Captain still on board. Have to get him quick, gone

173
00:08:11,959 --> 00:08:14,399
along the hull. If he's been on deca, they've seen him,

174
00:08:14,439 --> 00:08:17,360
must be down below. I'll hang onto the porthole and listen.

175
00:08:21,879 --> 00:08:24,759
Speaker 2: Clinging to the steep, slippery side of the Madison. Superman's

176
00:08:24,839 --> 00:08:26,839
keen hearing picks up sounds inside the.

177
00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:31,839
Speaker 5: Hull, pounding. Someone's pounding inside the hull. No time to

178
00:08:31,879 --> 00:08:34,240
go up on deck. Down the hatchway. I'll drive my

179
00:08:34,279 --> 00:08:38,519
way in from here through the side. I wonder where

180
00:08:38,519 --> 00:08:40,360
they left the ship. Why they didn't fight the fire?

181
00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:43,519
Speaker 1: Almost him once more?

182
00:08:45,879 --> 00:08:46,320
Speaker 5: Hey there?

183
00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:49,000
Speaker 1: Who was pounding here? After hole?

184
00:08:49,519 --> 00:08:50,200
Speaker 4: Get me out.

185
00:08:55,039 --> 00:08:55,200
Speaker 5: There?

186
00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:58,840
Speaker 1: He is looks like the captain night drove board. Get out,

187
00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:03,120
get out here, you'll be all right. He's faded. Tnt

188
00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:06,639
huh now once they abandoned ship. Hey, that fire is

189
00:09:06,639 --> 00:09:09,960
getting mighty close. Come along, captain. One thing. You can't

190
00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:10,240
see me.

191
00:09:10,879 --> 00:09:12,720
Speaker 5: You'll be found floating in the water with a life

192
00:09:12,759 --> 00:09:14,559
preserver and nobody'll ever know who saved you.

193
00:09:15,159 --> 00:09:27,399
Speaker 2: Out we go, quick, superman captains the unconscious form of

194
00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:30,480
Captain Anderson wraps him in a life preserver, drops him

195
00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:33,279
in the sea near the lifeboats, and streaks again for

196
00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:34,440
the doomed ship.

197
00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:40,039
Speaker 1: Touch and go. Now that stuff will explode any second.

198
00:09:40,519 --> 00:09:42,720
But I've got to find the safe and get those papers.

199
00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:53,399
There's the bridge down down here we are. This is

200
00:09:53,399 --> 00:09:56,559
the captain's cabin, all right, and there's the safe. Well.

201
00:09:56,639 --> 00:10:01,159
Speaker 5: One smash will open that up. And there's the package.

202
00:10:01,399 --> 00:10:05,320
Must be wrapped an oil skin mark John Anderson, Pemberton.

203
00:10:05,399 --> 00:10:08,639
Speaker 1: This is the time you lose. Now out fast, no

204
00:10:08,799 --> 00:10:10,720
time for the stairs. Hunt the wall.

205
00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:13,320
Speaker 5: Had away.

206
00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:26,120
Speaker 1: Hey, mister Burns, it's up. There's a man volting in

207
00:10:26,159 --> 00:10:28,879
the light. Observer. It's the captain. It's captain, and get

208
00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:32,240
him of a quick holme on the side. It is

209
00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:34,519
the captain, I'll he get out here. Never mind that

210
00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:36,559
hoo hoo.

211
00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:39,799
Speaker 4: He goes the ship and then they get clear.

212
00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:50,519
Speaker 2: Outlined against a sheet of sudden orange flame, the steamer

213
00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:53,759
Madison explodes with a crash of floor, fills the sky

214
00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:57,639
with screaming shells, scatters flaring embers on the face of

215
00:10:57,679 --> 00:10:58,039
the sea.

216
00:10:58,559 --> 00:10:59,879
Speaker 1: Do the boats get clear?

217
00:11:00,879 --> 00:11:05,440

218
00:11:05,639 --> 00:11:08,919
