Transcript

The Challenge of the Yukon! The Wonder Dog King, swiftest and strongest of Eskimo lead dogs, blazes a trail through storm and snow for Sergeant Preston, as he meets the Challenge of the Yukon! Sergeant Preston was typical of the small band of Northwest-notted police, who preserved law and order in the new Northwest country,

with a greed for wealth and power led to frequent violence and bloodshed. But in spite of the odds against them, Sergeant Preston and his wonder dog king met that challenge, and justice ruled triumphant. Aah!

In the small wooden building that was Clemens points jail, a worried constable paced the floor as he spoke to Sergeant Preston. No! I know as well as you do, Sergeant, to shame more or to be in jail.

What am I going to do? I can't put him there for what I think. I want him jailed. I don't care how slight the charges against him may be. The important thing is to put him behind bars for a stretch of about 30 days.

But gone, son, it banyamite as well as for my good right arm. He comes into town. He's loud, mouthed. But aside from that, he don't make any trouble. Look, Jack, I've been trailing Chambot for quite a while.

No, I know. I'm certainly guilty of three robberies. There was a witness to one of them, but he was killed. Murdered. That leaves you pretty much up in the air, huh? Yes, unless I can get him with a loot.

Now, he's got that loot somewhere. Would have been impossible for him to done these jobs alone. He's got men working with him. I don't doubt that, Nunn. But he's too smart to be seen in town with any of them.
