This is the first mention of Superboy in a Superman story. It should therefore be considered the first Earth-1 Superman story.

Synopsis:
Clark Kent is reunited with his former classmate Pudge Smythe. Pudge is now a banker, having achieved his boyhood dream. Clark decides to pay a visit to several of his other classmates to learn what has become of them.

Clark first visits Stanley King who wanted to be an acrobat. Clark finds him working as a bookkeeper for a circus. With Superman's help, King finally achieves his goal and becomes a circus acrobat.

Superman then helps another classmate, Dizzy Dowling, achieve his dream of being an architect. The Man of Steel then plays matchmaker setting up Peggy Watson with Dowling. The happy couple is soon married.
