Presenting the transcription feature Superman under theSky. It's a bird, It's a
plain, It's Superman and now Superman. When we last saw Clark Kent,
he was in the midst of abaffling mystery, waiting at the hospital to
(00:21):
interview the girl he had saved inthe nick of time from a burning building.
He had heard a scream. Twomen pushing as the girl's relatives had
visited her room, stabbed her,and suddenly vanished the day. As our
story continues, some time has passed. The girl's injury proved not to be
serious, and she is now wellenough to give Clark Kent his interview.
Though nervous and upset, as herstory approaches its climax, she becomes poor
(00:44):
and more excited. Listen, misterKent. When I woke up here in
the hospital, the first thing Isaw, the very first thing, those
two faces bending over my bed,Badley Pemberton and Joseph to knee. They're
the ones who tried to kill you. But they're the head officer of the
North Star Mining Company. Because theyare, don't you understand, mister Kent.
(01:04):
I was their office secretary. Abouttwo months ago I found out what
they were doing, mister Kent.They weren't honest. They were swindlers.
They sold people stock in a mineout west, a mine with no gold
in his go on, miss Anderson, if you're not too tired, I
want you to know what happened.I found some letters and some secret diagrams
and maps, and then came themorning of the fire. Yes, go
(01:26):
on. I got down to theoffice early that morning and began going through
his desk. I was in hisoffice all alone. I knew I had
at least an hour before he gotin. I stood there opening and shutting
drawers, and all the time Ididn't have any idea that there was somebody
watching him from the closet. Haveyou buy any chaps been investigating the activities
(01:53):
of the North Star Mine? MissAnderson? Have you all right? Since
you've caught me? Yes? Ihave. You've caught me, and I've
