Speaker 1 (00:00):
Presenting the transcription feature Superman up in the sky.
Speaker 2 (00:08):
Look, it's a bird, it's a plain, It's Superman.
Speaker 1 (00:14):
And now Superman.
Speaker 3 (00:16):
When we last saw him, Superman as Clark kent had
come to the town of Dyreville with Lois Lane to
save it from the grim designs of the Yellow Mask,
who had threatened to destroy it unless the city paid
him the huge sum of a million dollars. Within thirty
six hours, kenteth discovered that the Mask intends to wipe
out the mighty Harley Dam above the city and sweep
away every living thing in the resulting flood. But how
(00:39):
the Mask plans to break the dam, guarded as it
is by heavily armed police, is still a mystery to day.
As our story continues, sudden terror has seized a small
group standing on top of the dam, less than twelve
hours to go before the end of the time limit
set by the Yellow Mask, but already strange rumbling shocks
far below the surface of the water sound the warnings
of disaster, and Lois Lane, the city commissioner of Dyreville,
(01:03):
caught on the roadway up the dam, raced wildly for
the shore.
Speaker 2 (01:06):
What's that the slave same come on, come on, don't
stop to look back.
Speaker 4 (01:12):
No, I don't think so take it easy. Commission had noise.
Whatever it was, it's all over now, Ken, I'll give
you my word.
Speaker 5 (01:22):
I thought it was all over right ten minutes.
Speaker 4 (01:24):
What was it? What happened I can't imagine.
Speaker 6 (01:27):
Felt like an earthquake, shocks, or an explosion way down
under the water.
Speaker 4 (01:31):
Explosion. Can say it might have been at the But
why even.
Speaker 7 (01:35):
If the mask is going to blow out the dam,
we've still got housed by his own word.
Speaker 4 (01:39):
That's right till midnight tonight.
Speaker 6 (01:41):
I'm not so sure about that. Look, here's why I
followed you out here. This letter came just after you
left my office.
Speaker 4 (01:46):
What is it?
Speaker 6 (01:47):
It's a note. Don't ask me how it came because
I don't know. All I know is that I've held
it on my desk. I'd have sworn they hadn't been
his hole in the room.
Speaker 5 (01:55):
Here read it, Kenn to.
Speaker 8 (01:57):
The City Commission. The Secret Empire is becoming impatient. I
am not pleased with the way Dyreville meets my demands.
Let there be more speed, or I may change my mind.
Sign the yellow mask.
Speaker 5 (02:11):
More speed may change his mind?
Speaker 8 (02:13):
And what does he mean by that commissioner. The mask
may be fooling us. It's not like him to give
such a plain warning.
Speaker 9 (02:19):
Mister kit I don't understand.
Speaker 4 (02:20):
I mean just this.
Speaker 8 (02:22):
What if the mask doesn't mean to blow up the
dam at all? What if he's got some other scheme?
I can't Why do you think that pleas let us
know too much? Almost looks as if he wanted us
all up here while he worked out another plan somewhere else.
Speaker 9 (02:33):
If that's the case, what can we do?
Speaker 4 (02:35):
ALUs?
Speaker 8 (02:36):
I mean, miss Lane, you go back to town with
the commissioner, back to the meeting.
Speaker 4 (02:39):
Isn't that your car right over there?
Speaker 5 (02:41):
Yes? It is. Are you sure that's the best thing
to do.
Speaker 4 (02:43):
I'm not sure. Now nobody can be sure of anything, and.
Speaker 6 (02:46):
I'll take your word for it. Ken, come along, miss
laydon hose turn up Peter's we're going back.
Speaker 9 (02:51):
Mister Kemp, what are you going to do?
Speaker 4 (02:52):
Oh? Stay around, keep my eyes open and my ears all.
Speaker 6 (02:55):
I'm getting miss Lane. N's it and Kent. Whatever happens,
try and get me the meeting.
Speaker 4 (03:00):
I'll do that, Commissioner, that's a promise.
Speaker 5 (03:02):
Don't forget.
Speaker 4 (03:03):
And good luck to you, not only to me. Good
luck to all of us.
Speaker 8 (03:11):
Look, eh, we'll need a little luck now that they're gone.
Speaker 10 (03:15):
I think it's time Clark Kent gave away to Superman.
Any of those policemen watching, No, I think I'll have
a look underwater, find out where those explosions came from.
Speaker 5 (03:26):
Here I go.
Speaker 10 (03:36):
Here, here's something looks like a piece of polished metal.
And right up against the damn tool where the crack is.
I can get it loose from the bottom.
Speaker 4 (03:47):
None of it? Gosh, d it loose?
Speaker 5 (03:52):
Now?
Speaker 10 (03:52):
Up up in the air and over the shore to
see what it is up up.
Speaker 3 (04:02):
In the shulder of a group of pine trees. Superman
examines the curious object he is taken from the bottom
of Harley Lake.
Speaker 4 (04:07):
Amazement shows in his eyes.
Speaker 3 (04:09):
He leaps again into the sky and streaks for the
eating chamber in the console hall of Dreville, where fear
stricken citizens look at each other with pale, drawn faces.
Speaker 5 (04:20):
Don't you know better than call me out? Now? Who
is it?
Speaker 4 (04:22):
There?
Speaker 5 (04:23):
He is?
Speaker 4 (04:23):
Commissioner said, you knew him?
Speaker 5 (04:24):
Oh can't, well, quick Man? Has anything happened?
Speaker 4 (04:27):
Commissioner? Where's miss Lash?
Speaker 5 (04:28):
She's all right, she's waiting in my office.
Speaker 8 (04:30):
And what about the mask, A Commissioner, I've found the
reason for that explosion we felt this afternoon.
Speaker 4 (04:34):
It was a torpedo.
Speaker 8 (04:36):
A torpedo, that's what I said, and underwater torpedo fired
from somewhere up the lake at the face of the
Harley Dam.
Speaker 4 (04:41):
No wonder it shook.
Speaker 5 (04:42):
Here's but why the time had n't expired? What was
the reason?
Speaker 4 (04:46):
Number one?
Speaker 8 (04:47):
To terrify us? Number two, to show us what he
could do. Commissioner, when the time comes, the yellow Mask
can blow that dam into a thousand bits?
Speaker 5 (04:55):
Where is he?
Speaker 8 (04:56):
Can't we find it and stop him? We might if
we had time. He could be anywhere on Harley Lake.
And it's getting dark. No time for that, Commissioner. What's
the meeting doing?
Speaker 6 (05:05):
Oh nothing, talking it over, arguing back and forth. We
have a radio in there in case the Mask sends
another message, and the proceedings are being broadcast so that
everyone in Darville will know what's going on.
Speaker 4 (05:15):
Will I pay the money? I don't know, you, Commissioner,
I tell me quickly. If the dam does go, how
does the water come down the city?
Speaker 5 (05:23):
Billions of gallons? Kempt?
Speaker 4 (05:25):
Well wouldn't That's not what I mean. What's its course.
Speaker 6 (05:28):
Which way does it go down through the Jefferson Gorge
and then into the valley?
Speaker 5 (05:32):
And Dinville's right in the way.
Speaker 4 (05:33):
Who's the gorge? Commissioner?
Speaker 1 (05:35):
If you could block that gorge, what would happen?
Speaker 6 (05:38):
I don't know, Yes, I do too. The flood would
go down the Old River Bay and miss the city,
miss it entirely and joining the river again two miles below.
Speaker 4 (05:47):
Dirive Commissioner. Could you dynamize that gorge? Block it up?
Speaker 5 (05:50):
I don't know. Oh no, no, we couldn't, not in
the time we had.
Speaker 4 (05:55):
I'll try it.
Speaker 8 (05:55):
Call in the army, have their engineers get right out
there and set charges.
Speaker 4 (05:58):
It's your only.
Speaker 5 (05:59):
Chance, ken, do you think?
Speaker 6 (06:00):
Well, if that's the only way, listen, they're calling for
a vote.
Speaker 5 (06:05):
I'm gonna go back in there. Can you'd better come
to there make a final decision?
Speaker 4 (06:09):
Come along all right?
Speaker 5 (06:12):
Well, gentlemen, are you ready for the question?
Speaker 4 (06:16):
Gentlemen? They can't wait. Pay lass gentlemen.
Speaker 5 (06:23):
It has been moved and seconded, and.
Speaker 6 (06:25):
No further action be taken in the matter of the
demands made on Direville by the figure known as the
Yellow Match. All those in favor ah contrary minded.
Speaker 5 (06:38):
It is so. Gentlemen, you have made your decision, and
I think a wise one.
Speaker 6 (06:43):
The people of the city cannot yield to the threat
of fear, and they will.
Speaker 11 (06:48):
Gentlemen, you have made your decision, and I have made mind.
Speaker 4 (06:54):
Where's the commissioner, It's coming over the radio.
Speaker 5 (06:56):
I shallnot wait until midnight.
Speaker 11 (07:00):
By your city now at once, and others may know
what it means to defy the will of the yellow match.
Speaker 5 (07:07):
Run by your lives, your pools, save.
Speaker 4 (07:10):
Them if you can't another thread. Yes, I have released
my torpedoes.
Speaker 5 (07:16):
The flood is already.
Speaker 11 (07:18):
On its way.
Speaker 4 (07:21):
Order order, gentlemen, he can't meet it. That was just
a threat.
Speaker 5 (07:25):
He can't do it. Now keep your seats coming.
Speaker 4 (07:28):
Whose voice was that broadcast?
Speaker 5 (07:29):
You heard it on the radio yesterday. You know who
it was. But I don't believe him. Where's that news reporter?
Where's cart can't?
Speaker 4 (07:41):
What's the matter?
Speaker 1 (07:41):
What all of them?
Speaker 4 (07:43):
Listen?
Speaker 9 (07:44):
A phone call just came in, Commissioner. It's been blown
to pieces. Polydam is destroyed. The flood is coming.
Speaker 10 (07:52):
Down on dialis.
Speaker 4 (07:58):
Think it's.
Speaker 3 (08:01):
And meanwhile, where is Clark Kent? Vanish from the scene,
change in a twinkling to the flying form of Superman,
faster than an airplane. Red cloak streaming in the wind,
he rushes back up the valley to meet the boiling,
roaring flood of Harley Lake, pouring down toward the narrow
gorge of the Jefferson River.
Speaker 10 (08:18):
I've a worked fest. This has got to be the time.
First to see if that devil was telling the truth.
Then the block of the gorge. It's one chance in
a thousand. Even Superman can't hold back a flood. O.
It won't hurt me. I can't drown, but they can
kill every living solely Direville.
Speaker 4 (08:33):
Faster, faster. Ah, there it is boil.
Speaker 5 (08:42):
Like a Miller's.
Speaker 10 (08:43):
So you did it after all, Mask, Well, let's see
if it's still time to stop you.
Speaker 4 (08:47):
Back to the Jefferson Gorge.
Speaker 5 (08:53):
Racing ahead of.
Speaker 3 (08:54):
The blood, Superman swooped down to the only.
Speaker 1 (08:56):
Place where it can be turned from the doom city.
Speaker 3 (08:58):
The narrow bend of the man made gorge. Rocky cliffs
rise one hundred feet on either side. Down Thunder's a
towering wall of angry water.
Speaker 4 (09:09):
There it is.
Speaker 10 (09:10):
I can't get there ahead of the water, but maybe
I can pluck it off down.
Speaker 1 (09:14):
Down, tearing at the granite walls.
Speaker 4 (09:20):
Bloodwater's raging on every hand.
Speaker 3 (09:22):
Superman rips into the living rock sends great masses plunging to.
Speaker 4 (09:25):
The foot of the gorge.
Speaker 3 (09:26):
But more is needed, and yet more the water is
thundering through a great point of stone, hangs high overhead.
Speaker 2 (09:32):
Ah, one last chance, if I can rip petals, crash
it down there in the middle.
Speaker 1 (09:40):
Here it goes.
Speaker 4 (09:43):
Not much time.
Speaker 2 (09:44):
What's more, it's cracking starting to go. How it's down,
It's done it. It's flock the gorge, the the flood's
going down the old channel. It'll miss tire, He'll buy
half a mile.
Speaker 3 (10:04):
In the last second of time, Superman tears down the
hierarchy walls of Jefferson Parde turns aside the mainstream of
the flood, sends it down.
Speaker 4 (10:11):
It's all harmless. Channel saves the city.
Speaker 3 (10:14):
Of Diyarville, And two hours later, in a telegraph office
on the city's main street.
Speaker 7 (10:21):
Alrighty comes another sheet, same address, para white daily Planet.

was saved from the flood. This is one time, mister Clark,

Speaker 3 (11:02):
Hiding a smile, Kent turns away, then the smile abruptly fades.
Dyreville is saved, as Lois says, but what of the
yellow mask? Suddenly Kent realizes that the mad Menace is
still at large and who can tell where his next
blow will strike. So be with us again next time
