Synopsis for "The Super-Cheat!"

Maddened by her loss of status since Linda Danvers showed her up, Donna Storm begins a campaign to restore herself as "Miss Big" on Stanhope's campus.

Her schemes include using a computer her father gave her, paying off workers at her family's chemical plant to do her chemistry homework, and using radio-receiver earrings to get "cheat" information broadcasts. But Supergirl thwarts her again and again.

Finally, Donna frames Linda for stealing gold and diamonds from a mineral collection in the science building. Linda is expelled. But she gets the help of Shrinking Violet, who alters Donna's radio earrings into transmitters that broadcast Donna's voice through the school's P.A. system. Then Linda prods Donna into arrogantly confessing to framing her, and, with the evidence heard by the whole college, Linda is reinstated, and Donna, the no-good sorority--uh, Donna is expelled.
