Synopsis:
After writing a story criticizing astrology, Clark Kent is approached by Tom Nelson, a representative of astrologer, Abou Sabut. Clark agrees to allow Sabut to demonstrate his astrological forecasting. When two of Sabut’s predictions come true, resulting in the death of a critic and the robbery of a jewelry store, Superman involves himself. He tracks Sabut and learns that Nelson is the brains of the operation, and is using Sabut to scam people and commit crime. Sabut is killed, but Superman brings Nelson to justice.
