Transcript

The challenge of the Yukon! It's Yukon King, the swift, distant, strongest lead dog of the Northwest, blazing the trail for Sergeant Preston of the Northwest Modern Police, in his relentless pursuit of lawbreakers. On King! On your Huskies!

Gold, gold discovered in the Yukon, a stampede to the Klondike in the wild race for riches. Back to the days of the Gold Rush, Gold Rush with Sergeant Preston and his wonder dog, Yukon King, as they meet the challenge of the Yukon.

Dave Logan had gained notoriety as the leader of a ruthless gang in the Southwest. When the law finally picked up the gang's trail and trapped them in their hideout, Dave Logan had managed to escape and made his way to San Francisco.

From there he had gone to the Yukon territory, or he soon established another gang. Once more with reckless disregard for the law, Logan and his gang were operating. Dave was a large man and tougher than nails, but he was superstitious to such a degree that he believed a certain silver dollar which he had carried in his breast pocket one day

and which had deflected a bullet was a luck charm. He always carried that silver dollar with a feeling that it made him invincible. He would lead his gang into a cafe for instance in broad daylight to hold up the customers.

Peace everybody, there's a holder. Alright boys, I'll have to think they want some folks to dust. David, Steve, you keep in common. Get the guns first of all Sam. Alright, Alia, line up. Come on, let me get the guns.

Hey, are we gonna let them get away with this? There's only five of them against all of us. Yeah, but they got the drop on us. That's a looking gang, you better be careful. Darn right, you better be careful.
