Up in the Sky
Clan of the Fiery Cross
By George Putnam Ludlam
1946’s “Clan of the Fiery Cross” was a story arc on The Adventures of Superman radio series.
As manager of the Unity House Baseball team, Daily Planet staffer Jimmy Olsen’s first responsibility is to the team, not to individual players. Thus, as soon as Jimmy saw that Tommy Lee was a talented pitcher, he replaced Unity House’s current pitcher, Chuck Riggs, with Tommy.
Chuck does not react well to being replaced. In short order, Jimmy sees no alternative but to fire Chuck. Chuck’s misfortune is an opportunity for his uncle Max.
