Description
The same year that Dr . L.H.C . Mintzer arrived in Okanogan , 1909 , Captain John McA . Webster , an agent of the Colville Reservation required that the Indian Police on the South Half of the reservation (across the river from Okanogan) prevent white people from fishing and camping on the reservation without permits , in an effort to preserve trout . Dr . Mintzer , most likely carrying a permit , had no problem however , in catching over a dozen fish in less than an hour ! Dr . Mintzer set up offices in the 2nd floor of the Elgin , Nelson and Co . building on the southeast corner of Second Avenue and T Street . A graduate of the State College of Pennsylvania , Dr . Mintzer played football there and in Okanogan during the 1909 season . He was also a member of the Okanogan Valley Publicity League begun in 1911 , and was elected fire chief of the local fire department in both 1910 and 1911 .
