Charley Olson, Bluff Oldtimer, Recalls Part He Played In Serum Race

Carl (Charley) Olson, longtime Q916 roadhouse keeper and min CT at Bluff, was in town for sup plies last week. It is at Bluff, 54 miles down the coast from Nome, that Charley, in addition to his Well-knoWn roadhouse, has long held title to the Homestake lode quartz mine, situated on the huge headland that projects into the sea and from which the old min ing camp took it's name.
 Over the years much prospect ing and money has gone into the development of the Homestake, but the 1942 government gold mining shutdown stopped all that, and Charley's packers are gone.
 As this mine must have a smelt- CT with mill and cyaniding extrac- ton process located at Bluff, it makes it a costly affair and will require the organization of well financed corporation to get it into production.
 Charley Olson is the last re- maining of the sturdy band of dog mushers, who in relays raced the clock 800 miles from Fairbanks, bringing he life-saving serum to the relief of Nome when stricken with diphtheria in January, 1925. Charley drove the leg from Colo win to Bluff on Jan. 27, through 38-beloW-zero weather and rag ing blizzard, after receiving the serum from Leonard Seppala, who with his racing team of 22 Siberian huskies had driven the 90 miles from Unalakleet. It took Charley hours to make the usual 4 hour trip, freezing two of his seven dogs.
 At Bluff, the serum was turned over to the waiting Gunnar Kas- son and his team of II malamutes, who drove through the night on the final lap, while the entire United States waited with bated breath, for this race against time and death had captured the ima- gination and sympathy of people everywhere.
 With Gunnar's arrival the doc tors went into action, the towns people inoculated, and the cpl demic halted.
 So great was the publicity given to this epic of the northland that Gunnar and his lead dog Balto, were later taken to the States and exhibited in theaters through out the land. A statue of Balto was erected in Bronx Park, New York City, and is still there, a fitting tribute to a great sled dog and all his breed.
