Balmy Bill

A pair of crooks who steal money trick a not-very-smart guy into helping them grab a stash of gold. However, Bill doesn't care about the gold at all—he just really wants to have a cute, cuddly puppy.

Challenge of the Yukon is an American radio adventure series that began on Detroit's WXYZ and is an example of a Northern genre story. The series was first heard on January 3, 1939. The title changed from Challenge of the Yukon to Sergeant Preston of the Yukon in September 1950, and that title was retained through the end of the series and into a television adaptation.
