TRUSTEE, EDITOR, LOY AL ALUMNUS THAT'S JOHN W. EDMONDS, JR.
One day in November John W . Edmonds, Jr., '13, sat down at his typewriter with his hat jammed on his head and pen clamped between his teeth and rapped out copy for the November 12 issue of the Peninsula Enterprise.
And when he had put that issue of the weekly newspaper "to bed," he had completed his 50th year as editor of one of the state's finest weeklies and one of the loves of his life.
Two months later there came the announcement that the Enterprise had been sold but that John Edmonds would stay on -certainly for a while-so that the new owners might have the continued benefit of his knowledge of the newspaper and the constituency it serves.
The University and the newspaper are traditions in the Edmonds family. The bond with Richmond College goes back to Judge Ben T. Gunter of Accomac, John Jr.'s grandfather, who enrolled in 1841. The Enterprise was founded in 1881 by Edmond's father, John Sr., who edited it until his death in 1914.
Long before John Jr. was old enough to cross the Chesapeake Bay to come to Richmond College, he and his brother Alfred were folding the newspapers on stools their father had bought for them because they were too small to reach the papers. They learned to set type before they went off to Richmond where Alfred graduated in 1911.
John Jr. and Alfred took over the editing and managing of the paper on their father's death, splitting the duties with John editing and Alfred handling the advertising and business details. This was a successful team until Alfred's death in 1962.
John no longer canvasses by horse and buggy and boat the two Virginia counties the paper serves as he once did, and he has seen the Shore's railroad wither and all but die. But he has been a progressive booster of the Shore's economy and supported editorially the new bridge-tunnel that now spans the 20 miles of Chesapeake Bay which separates Northampton and Accomack counties from the mainland of Virginia.
Aiding him in his vigorous leadership in the operation of the newspaper have been his sister, May Edmonds, a Westhampton graduate of 1918, and his wife Katharine, Westhampton, '21.
John occasionally crosses the bridge-tunnel to visit Richmond where his other son John III, '53, is an attorney. Frequently it is to come to Homecoming or Alumni Day, when he takes pleasure in bringing to the campus his grandsons whom he hopes will be Spiders of the 70's and so's.
Back in Accomac, he finds time to chat with another brother, Dr. J. Fred Edmonds, '17, who now practices medicine there with the aid of his son Tom, '49.

BROADDUS ENDS THIRD TERM
ON MEDICAL COLLEGE BOARD
Dr. J. Pelham Broaddus, '23, a Franklin dentist, is completing his third three-year term on the board of trustees of the Medical College of Virginia Alumni Association.

After graduating from the University of Richmond in 1923, he served three years as a teacher, coach and principal of high schools in West Virginia and Virginia.
Dr. Broaddus is a former member of the Board of Deacons of Franklin Baptist Church, a 32nd degree Mason and Shriner, past master of Franklin Lodge No. 151, member of the Elks Lodge, Franklin Lions Club, Lambda Chi Alpha Social fraternity and Psi Omega professional fraternity .
Author, and renowned man of medicine is Dr. William H. ReMine, '40, specialist in cancer surgery of the abdomen , head and neck at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota.
Bill's surgical knowledge is spread internationally by his lectures to surgical organizations and medical colleges. In November he addressed the National Assembly of Surgeons in Mexico City. The last two years have seen him participating at medical meetings in Bermuda, Puerto Rico, Mexico twice, Panama, Colombia, and Canada twice. The Columbia (South America) College of Surgeons made him an Honorary Fellow. In December he spoke and consulted with specialists at the Medical College of Virginia. Besides his many articles in medical journals his first book, Cancer of the Stomach, has just come from the press.
Heading a section of surgery at the Mayo Clinic where he is associate professor of surgery, Dr. ReMine is serving his fourth straight year as president of the Mayo Clinic Surgical Society. He was recently elected president of the Minnesota Surgical Society and is a member of the Southern Surgical Society. As a member of the Motion Picture Committee of the American Co-liege of Surgeons, of which he is a Fellow, he won in 1959 and 1960 its annual award for his work with surgical movies.
Born in Richmond on October 11, 1918, Bill ReMine attended Albert Hill, Binford and Thomas Jefferson before entering the University of Richmond. In both high school and college he was elected to the presidency of the student body. His social fraternity, Kappa Sigma, selected him as its Grand Master during his senior year, and Omicron Delta Kappa tapped him for membership. He was graduated with a B.S. in Biology.
In 1943 ReMine received his M.D. from MCV, where he was initiated into Alpha Omega Alpha National Honorary Medical Scholarship Fraternity. His Master's Degree of Science in Surgery was won in 1952 from the University of Minnesota, after he spent his internship at Doctors Hospital in Washington, D. C. He then went to Mayo Clinic, and was asked to join its permanent staff when his studies in surgery were completed . It was there that he was chosen for membership into Sigma Psi, National Honorary Research Society.
World War II found ReMine serving for two years in the Medical Corps as a captain stationed at Fort Ord, California and Camp Lee, Va.
While spending a summer at Virginia Beach Bill ReMine met Doris Irene Grumbacher of Bronxville, New Y.ork. They were married on June 9, 1943. Mrs. ReMine is an art major graduate of Skidmore College.
The ReMine's address in Rochester, Minnesota is 800 Twelfth Avenue, S.W., where they are "delighted to have visitors from Richmond." Four boys complete their household; the oldest is a freshman in pre-med at Northwestern University, where he will be on the wrestling team. They are : B.ill, 18; Steve, 15; Wally, 12; Gray , 10. This explains in part why Dr. ReMine has devoted for twelve years his efforts as a Cub Scout Master and Troop Commander for the Boy Scouts.
Hunting pheasant and quail, fresh and deep sea fishing and shooting in the high eighties at the Rochester Go-If and Country Club are ReMine's outdoor activities. His 5' 11" frame has added but ten pounds since the days he worked out on Millhiser Field, winning a letter in track.
Memories of the U. of R. recall his friendship with Dick Humbert, '41, Ed Merrick, '40, Gene Peek, '40, Porter Vaughan , '40, and Doug Britton, '40, who were fellow students. Doctors McDanel, '16, Loving, '96, Wheeler, and Ryland, '92, were his favorite professors. Bill 's brother, Gordon, Richmond '42, is a surgeon practicing in Fort Smith, Arkansas.
Some recent University of Richmond graduates often visit with Dr. ReMine at the Clinic. They are staff members Dave Carr, '35, Bud Brown, '47, and Ed Goldston, '50.
What is Bill ReMine's answer to his retirement plans? "I want to do more travelling because there is plenty in this world I haven't seen."

George F. Scheer, '40, learned from his publisher that his children's book, "Yankee Doodle Boy" was to be published on October 15. He wasn't surprised at that, but was truly astounded when his brother Julian told him that his (Julian's) book would come out on the same day.
The writing brothers wrote books for children and they both were scheduled to be published the same day ( dates were changed because of production difficulties) but there the similarity ends. George's book is based on sheer fact, Julian 's on sheer fiction. "Yankee Doodle Boy" is the story of a boy during the American Revolution, and a job reported as "a responsible work in military history for younger readers," by the Company of Military Historians.
Julian's book, "Rain Makes Applesauce," is fantasy based on the "silly talk" of children , with inspired art work to accompany the text.
George wrote textbooks for the Army Quartermaster Corps at Ft. Lee during World War II, and worked with the Uni-
