Delzene has participate almost all of the All-Alaska Sweep- ke Races which, for many years celebrated annually in Nome wi e nd were by far the most import- ant affairs of the season. “In 1908, continued Mr. Reed, “the first of these races was run and the course extended from Nome to Candle, on the Arctic Ocean side, which consisted of a distance of approximately 425 miles. Fink’s Heam wins “The race was won by Albert Fink’s team with John Hegnest acting as driver. Scotty Allan's team came in second. It took 119 hours to run the 425-mile course. “At that time, malamutes and outside dogs were driven exclusively and for several years Scotty Allan was the victor in the races until Leonhard Seppala arrived in Al- aska and introduced Siberian hus- kies to the racing professionals. He clearly demonstrated that the Si- berian dogs, although much small- er in size than the malamutes, pos- sessed far more endurance and speed. “Why Seppala,reduced the rec- ord time of 119 hours,” enthusias- tically declared Mr. Reed, “on the Nome-to-Candle run to 74 hours and 14 minutes, which is markable record when one takes into consideration the hardships— such as loss of sleep, the hazards of blizzards, and poor trail condi- tions—endured by these courageous dog mushers. Shatters Record “In both long and shori distance races in the North, Seppala shat-! tered all records and he is affec- tionately known by the hardy pio- ners of the Northland who justly respect and admire his sterling qualities, as the ‘King of the Arc- tic Trail’ “Last winter, in both the States and Canada, he came out victorious in every race in which he entered his team.
