For several years Dr. Kanzler practiced medicine in Ogden and had as his avocation, boosting Ogden High school athletics. He was always the physician in charge and on the job with the football team, and in all athletic contests. In 1920 he offered the Kanzler loving cup to the best drilled company in the R. O. T. C. The competition for this cup has been a big feature in the R. O. T. C. work from that time to this, and furnishes Ogden people annually the big spectacular event of the year. The cup was won in 1920 by Company C, Captain Harry Lyon commanding. The winning by years since that time are: Company B, Captain George Whipple. Company C, Captain Philip Ring. Company B, Captain Leon Keller. . Company A, Captain Llewellyn Summerill. Company C, Captain Gordon Agee. Company E, Captain Lee Chamberlain. Company C, Captain Gordon Larsen. Company B, Captain Roger Woods. Company B, Capt. John E. Carver. Company B, Captain Henry Aiken. This shows that Company B has tm won the cup five times, and three times in succession. The question has arisen as to whether the cup jfl does not now belong to Company B,9H permanently. Whether it does orjH not, we feel that the Kanzler cupB tradition must be carried on as a memorial to Dr. Kanzler, as one of the finest traditions the school has B established. H |
