Synopsis:
Jimmy Olsen receives a visit from a time traveller named Kasmir who claims to be a lawman from the future. Jimmy joins Kasmir on a trip to the past before learning the man is really a criminal. Jimmy is rescued by Samson in the guise of Mighty Youth, but the time bubble is damaged.

While stranded in the past, Jimmy gets a job shearing wool from sheep. He uses the extra wool to make Beatle wigs. He then sells them to the local youth and starts a Beatle-craze. Both Kasmir and a shepherd named Ben-Robba have Jimmy arrested. Samson rescues him, and Jimmy protects him when Kasmir tries to cut his hair. Superman eventually tracks Jimmy down, returning both the boy reporter and Kasmir to their correct time periods.
