Lassie #63

In "Red Flame of Courage," the Martins and their loyal dog Lassie face a sudden crisis when a flash flood destroys a railroad trestle during their journey to a new Farm Program assignment in east Africa. With night closing in, they race to warn an oncoming train by posting flares along the track—Lassie and Timmy swimming the raging river to secure the far bank. Their quick thinking earns them front-page headlines and a warm welcome in Nairobi, where their bravery is celebrated.

In "Kyan Zit's Revenge," Jo and her animal companions navigate a quiet village where a stolen treasure and a mysterious poisoning set off a chain of suspicion. When U Po Net is treated for his cataracts, a clever distraction leads to the theft of his rupees—only for Kyan Zit to later reveal the doctor’s assistant, Ramyo, as the one who poisoned him, with the stolen coins found hidden in Ramyo’s turban.

In "Screams in the Night," the Martins embark on a journey to Uganda, where they're guided by Dr. Johnson, headmaster of the Moroto Mission School, through the wilds of East Africa. As they face dangers from elephant poachers and startled leopards, Lassie proves her courage when the herd's stampede threatens her humans. When their trailer is destroyed by the elephants the next morning, the group presses on, eventually reaching the welcoming village of Moroto.
