Transcript

The challenge of the Yukon! It's King, swiftness and strongest lead dog of the North Country, blazing the trail for Sergeant Preston of the North West mounted police in his relentless pursuit of lawbreakers. King! Un-Yoo-Hoo-Hoo-Hoo!

No! Discovered in the Yukon, a stampede of the Klondike in the greedy race for riches. Now back to the days of the Gold Rush, when Sergeant Preston and his wonder dog King battle through storm and snow to preserve law and order as they met the challenge of the Yukon.

It was early spring in the Yukon country. Jim Green and his friend Dan Peters were returning to their homes on the outskirts of South Kirk after a successful day of hunting. Peters was carrying a small animal wrapped in a scarf that wriggled in a squirm like a cat in a bag.

As they approached Jim's cabin, Jim's young son Bob came running to meet them. to meet them. Oh, Dad. Yes, he was looking for you. How was the hunt, Dad? Fine son. We got a big caribou hanging on a tree limb to go back after with a dog's friend and we got something else too.

Now, we might be glad to give it to you. Oh, what is? Oh, wrapped up in your sky. Here. Take him careful now. He might claw you. Oh, just a baby. Oh, Dad, he's wonderful. He's a lively one too.

If you're going to let me keep him. If you'll take full charge of him and take good care of him. Oh, I will. I'd rather have him than anything I could think of. Look, he's got a white spot over his eye.
