WALTER GONE DRIVES
LAST RACE WITH DOGS
Hero of Long Mushes Fails tt
Return; Thin Ice of Moose
Lake Claims Him
(Ry United Press)

LePas, Manitoba, Nov. 22.--Walter
GONE has driven his last race out on
Moose lake. Eighty miles from LePas
his trail ends. The "going kid' OF
Alaska and hero Of number OF long
mushes went through the thin ice, with
his champion team Of nine dogs a
week ago. .>
-'7Goinc left LePas FOR a trading camp
about two weeks ago taking some
pups with him. A few days after, the
pups returned and the people became
worried and started a search for him.
The search ended on Moose lake.
Apparently Goine went down with his
heavy sleigh and champion dogs.
It will be impossible to locate his
body until the spring thaw, natives
said.
GONE was preparing his dog team
for this winters derby. He planned
to run a team of sixteen to twenty
dogs, and was training them hard.
GONE introduced new style OF train
ing and won the 1920 derby with a
hitch and sleigh of his own design.
He spent most Of last winter in st.
Paul and Minneapolis, and this year
he was to represent St. Paul in the
derby. He lost the race last year be-
cause he refused to force his dogs
over the trail with sore feet. He was
known as one of the best sportsmen
of the Northwest.
