The Sea Hound

Chapter one: A combination of thrills, a new kind of theme for a serial, Buster Crabbe as a character familiar to youngsters through a popular juvenile radio program and cartoon magazine adds up to the kind of excitement that keeps the younger set coming back to the theater. The introductory chapter of the serial, slightly longer than the rest, is an impressive sample of the kind of fast action that makes good serials. Crabbe plays Silver, captain of the yacht, The Sea Hound. His crew includes two appealing youngsters and a Chinese cook. Silver tangles with a band of pirates inhabiting a jungle island when he answers an SOS signal. He rescues the crew of the attacked yacht from the pirates. One of the group is an attractive blonde, Pamela Blake, who is searching for her father and a treasure on a sunken Spanish galleon.
