Transcript

The Challenge of the Yukon... On King! On New Husky! A wonder dog king 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 Mavad police who preserved law and order in the new northwest country, where the 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.

An eight-year-old boy stood in front of the gold nugget inn on the main street of the town of 40 miles. He held a small active puppy on leash as he watched two men unload their sled.

The corner of a blanket on the sled flapped in the wind and suddenly the pup leaped toward it, pulling the leash from his young master's hand and attacking the blanket was bigger. Get away from there, you muck!

Get your chick my dog! I'll punch your stomach! Hey, you little rat! Quit it! I'll kick your ass! Don't get him! Oh, no! I'll kick! I'll stop it! Look out, Slip! There's a big hussy!

No! Take him off! Get away! Oh, thank you! I'll get him back! Make him away! What's going on here anyway? Rusty! He did? I was teaching him the brat of humaners. You were teaching good manners.

All right, Jimmy, get your dog. I'll ride you home on my sled. Thanks, Sergeant. You're a friend, Steve. Keep that car away from me. You're a little boy. If you want him to keep away from you, you better stay out of trouble while you're on 40 miles.
