"The Martian Masquerade". Sponsored by: Ralston cereals ("Monoview Outer Space Helmet" premium). Test pilot endorsement. Plans for a secret Space Patrol weapon are stolen by a woman who looks like the daughter of the Secretary General of the United Planets. The Cisco Kid was a juvenile western adventure. In many ways it was the radio show equivalent to the western B-movies of the time, complete with what sound distinctly like coconuts for horses hooves and wonderfully cheesy Mexican accents – “Oh, Ceesco, perhaps they will keel heem”. The show follows the on-going adventures of the Cisco Kid and Pancho, his loyal companion. Many of the stories follow a predictable theme, usually involve a good fight, and end up with Cisco getting the girl, or at least a kiss for his troubles. Since the surface war against the Asians some sixteen years ago Western society have lived under the surface of the earth. Mary was only six at the time so she does not remember much about the beauty that was on the surface. Now Mary was doing a study on the enemy at the university and for the last six months had been talking to Joe the only captured enemy. But now her father feared for her relationship with Joe as traitors are taken up to the surface and before they reach it they are affected by so much radiation they will die.
