Challenge of the Yukon: Preston Breaks a Rule

The challenge of the Yukon. One king, one new husky. Underdog kings, with some strongest of Eskimo League dogs, blazes the trail through storm and snow for Sergeant Preston. As he meets the challenge of the Yukon.

Sergeant Preston was typical of a small band of northwest Mauna Police who preserved Lord 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 rolled triumphant.

Director Grayson of the Northwest Monnet Police looks stern as his steel-blue eyes board into those of Sergeant Preston who stood before him calmly at Monnet Police headquarters in Dawson. I have a report here, Sergeant, that will need a lot of explaining.

You've broken a rule of the Mounted Police. The report states that you entered a dog race out of uniform, won it, accepted the prize money, then you were disqualified when they discovered that you were a member of the Mounted Police.

This is true? Yes, sir. The first black mark against your record, Sergeant. Can't understand it. I couldn't believe it. Have you any explanation, whatever? Yes, sir. I have. It'll take some time to tell us all.

Well, take whatever time you need. Pull up a chair and sit down. I accept. Why don't I, King? Oh, I understand that lead, dog, of yours was a big factor in your winning the race.

I suppose your desire to show him off was too much of a temptation. No, sir. That had nothing to do with my entering the dog race. Well, whatever it is, get on with it. And it better be good, or it means one of those strikes comes off in your sleeve.
