ON THE AIR: February 25, 1940


 Another lost episode.  So what do I do?  Consult the enormous tome that is Martin Grams' "The Shadow: The History and Mystery of the Radio Program, 1930 - 1954".

This one involves two sunken submarines, a seaweed covered 'banshee' and a scuba diving Lamont Cranston.  Lamont nearly suffocates when the ghost smashes the life sustaining air apparatus, even though Shrevvy was left to monitor the equipment.  Of course, Cranston survives.  The subs are raised and a tour is given to Margot and Lamont.  The ghost reappears and Felix Wolf, the owner of the subs, goes topside to put an end to this ghost tomfoolery.  The ghost is exposed as the designer of the subs, a jealous man who then tries to blow them up but The Shadow stops him and all is right with the world once again.
