Synopsis:
Clark Kent and his classmates embark on a cross-country tour. The bus driver Matt Briggs hates children and is annoyed with them. Two supervisors then board the bus who are actually counterfeiters. Clark deduces who the men are, but he doesn't apprehend them right away. When the bus makes periodic stops, the crooks contact the rest of their gang. Superboy then rounds them up.

When the bus tours reaches San Francisco, the final stop, Superboy takes the boys around the world. During the trip, Briggs learns to like the children. Afterwards he becomes a school bus driver.
