NOME DOGS IN FINAL Eskimo Drivers Leading Field NOME, Alaska, Saturday, April 3.—(/P)—Twenty-six miles of wind-lashed snow lay between Albert Johnson, White Mountain Eskimo, and $300 in cash today. The Eskimo dog sled driver, who finished first jn the first two 26-mile laps of the Cape Nome derby course and held first spot for best combined time, viewed the prospect of the last lap calmly, but without overconfidence. Several other drivers were within striking distance of his combined time of 4 hours and 37 seconds and much, Johnson readily acknowledged, can happen to a dog team in 26 miles. Just 9 minutes and 6 seconds behind Johnson for the two laps was Edwin Pungruk, who finished second in yesterday's lap in time fast enough to move him from third to second. Fred Topkok, Eskimo from Igloo, ranked third with total time of 4 hours 15 minutes 33 seconds. The only white man given a chance to place was Ernie Buckmaster of Nome, rating fourth with 4 hours 23 minutes 1 second.
