Challenge of the Yukon: Arctic Chase

The Challenge of the Yukon! Unking! Un-U-H-Ski! The Wonder Dog Kings, swiftest and strongest of Eskimo lead dogs, blazes the 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, Sargent Preston and his wonder dog King met that challenge, and Justice ruled triumphant!

Sargent Preston seldom had to go north of the Arctic Circle, though that area was definitely part of the Yukon territory. Sparsely settled with Eskimos, who were harmless and peaceful, there was very little crime and disorder.

A few trips he was obliged to make were in pursuit of criminals, who had headed for the Northland with the hope that they wouldn't be followed. Such a criminal was Pierce James, a hardened unscrupulous killer.

With him and in complete contrast to him was Pete Andrews, a boy of 19, who toiled up the icy slope of a mountain ridge after Pierce, weary in protest. Pierce, I can't go any farther.

Please stop. I'll stop you, not jellyfish. We gotta get to that ledge before that blessed morning comes around the bend. Let's give up, Pierce. I'm ready to quit. He's bound to get us. You won't get me.

I'm getting him first. We're out ammunition. We'll starve. We can't, hon. I got one bullet left. That Sergeant Preston's name out. I get him. Maybe we can find some Eskimos who feed us. It's him or us now.

Backtracking up this ridge. We're going toward him. He's coming around the base of it. I want to get above him or I can shoot down. Can't afford to miss. Here. You're down behind this rock.
