# John Harold Rhodes

Lance Sergeant John Harold Rhodes VC DCM & Bar (17 May 1891 – 27 November 1917) was a British Army soldier and an English recipient of the Victoria Cross (VC), the highest and most prestigious award for gallantry in the face of the enemy that can be awarded to British and Commonwealth forces.

## Early life

Rhodes was born on 17 May 1891 in England in Packmoor, Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire, the son of an ex-soldier and miner, Ernie Rhodes. He was educated in Newchapel and later became a miner at the Chatterley Whitfield Colliery. Around 1910, however, he joined the Grenadier Guards of the British Army and served for three years, after which he returned to the colliery.

## First World War

On the outbreak of the First World War, John was recalled to the forces as a reservist. Now 26 years old, and a Lance-Sergeant in the 3rd Battalion, Grenadier Guards, British Army during the First World War John won the Distinguished Conduct Medal on 17 May 1915 and three months later was awarded a bar to this medal. While back in England recovering from his wounds, John married Lizzie but was not destined to live to see their son, John Rhodes (who, as an artilleryman, was himself awarded the Oak Leaves for gallantry in Northwestern Europe in 1944),
Back on the front-line, the following deed took place at the Battle of Poelcapelle for which John was awarded the VC and also the Croix De Guerre:
   No. 15122 L./Sjt. John Harold Rhodes, G.Gds. (Tunstall, Staffs.). For most conspicuous bravery when in charge of a Lewis gun section covering the consolidation of the right front company. He accounted for several enemy with his rifle as well as by Lewis gun fire, and, upon seeing three enemy leave a "pill-box", he went out single-handed through our own barrage and hostile machine-gun fire, and effected an entry into the "pill-box". He there captured nine enemy, including a forward observation officer connected by telephone with his battery. These prisoners he brought back with him, together with valuable information.
He was killed in action at Fontaine-Notre-Dame, France on 27 November 1917 and buried at Rocquigny-Equancourt Road British Cemetery, Manancourt.

## Medal

His Victoria Cross is displayed at The Guards Regimental Headquarters (Grenadier Guards RHQ) in Wellington Barracks, London, England.
A memorial plaque was unveiled at Chatterley Whitfield Mining Museum on 20 April 1984. There is also a road named in honour of John at nearby Tunstall. There is a memorial in Packmoor village on the Millennium Green outside Packmoor School which was unveiled in 2000.
# Jack Cole (scientist)

Alfred Jack Cole (1925 – May 30, 1997) was a professor at the School of Computer Science, University of St. Andrews in Scotland. He is credited with building on the establishing of Computer Science at St Andrews.

## Career

Cole studied mathematics at University College London, completing his PhD on the theory of numbers in 1952. He then worked as a lecturer at Heriot-Watt College in Edinburgh until 1956, when he moved to Queen’s College, Dundee. His interest in the potential of computer technology resulted in a move to University of Leicester in 1962, as Director of the Computing Laboratory. In 1965 he returned to Scotland and St Andrews, as Director of the Computing Laboratory and Reader in Computational Science.
From 1965 Cole devoted his next twenty years to establishing computer science at St Andrews. His innovative approach included pioneering the teaching of Information Technology to Arts students. He developed techniques for space-filling curves to be used in video compression, leading to his invention of murray polygons. One applied use of murray polygons is the halftoning of rectangular images without using dithering or edge enhancement methods.
He initiated the Distinguished Lecture Series in 1969. This series kept costs lower than similar conferences, with the intention of exposing students and others to leading edge topics. Costs were reduced through industry sponsorship and support from the university's School of Computer Science.

## Jack Cole Building

To recognize his service, the school moved to the new Jack Cole Building in 2004. This was formally opened on 1 July 2005.

## Personal life

Cole's interests included cats, hill walking, home brewing, folk music (and concertina playing), golf, gardening and football. He was a supporter of East Fife F.C.

Afterwards he moved to Mobile, Alabama where he taught as professor at the University of South Alabama for twenty-five years until his retirement in 1998. In 1972, he was co-founder (with James Avault) of the International Association of Astacology in Hinterthal, Austria, an organisation which is devoted to the research of crayfish. He was further fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, and a member of Sigma Xi. Fitzpatrick's main research field was the ecology and systematics of the crayfish in which he was recognized as one of the leading experts.

# Japan Model Racing Car Association

Japan Model Racing Car Association (日本モデルラジオコントロールカー協会) is a governing body for radio controlled car racing in Japan. As it represents domestic racing in Japan, the JMRCA is affiliated with IFMAR

## History

It was founded in February 1971 with the backing of Kyosho, the industry leader at the time, to feed on an increasing demand for R/C car racing popularised by U.S. military personnels stationed in Japan in preparation for the Vietnam War. Its first race was the First Japan-America Goodwill RC Car Race at the following month, hosted jointly by the JMRCA and the U.S. Air Force Model Club held at their Tokyo Tachikawa Base.
One of its first races hosted by JMRCA was a championship race for 1/8 scale racing cars produced by Kyosho. Taking place at a specially constructed race course at Fuji Speedway, the winning driver was rewarded with a trip to Hawaii.
The first championship took place in 1978 for 1:8 scale pan cars and the first electric car championship was a year later.

## Non-Japanese winners

Each year, JMRCA have invited drivers from other countries to compete but as invited drivers, only Japanese drivers are eligible to claim the championship titles, thus the title is awarded to the next best Japanese finisher. As of 2024, only seven foreign drivers have won the All-Japan Championships, either from Germany or the United States and one from the United Kingdom, won in 2015 when the championship was run as part of the warm-up event in preparation for the forthcoming IFMAR 1:10 Electric Off-Road World Championship. Ronald Völker is the only driver to have achieved this more than once.

# SMS Salamander (1891)

SMS Salamander was a minelayer built for the Austro-Hungarian Navy and launched in 1891.

## History

It was the second Austrian ship to be given this name after Salamander (1861), launched in 1861 and scrapped in 1896. The new Salamander displaced about 268 tons.
In July 1891 it was towed to Trieste, and from 1892 to 1893 it was a sea mine school, transporting students from the Austro-Hungarian academy. Between 1897 and 1902 it was assigned to the mine school and also to the telegraph school.
In 1902 it participated in an exhibition at Istria, attended by Emperor Franz Joseph I.
On 10 April 1913, it joined the international Blockade of Montenegro.
In 1914 it was active in the mine shift in the bay of Pola (Pula), later performing the same duty at the bay of Muggia and later still at the Bay of Kotor.
It was at the Farasina Channel early in 1916, and was back at work at the bay of Pola by February. In June of the same year, it laid mines on submarines off Cape Planka, and later in the Lesina Channel and near Curzola (Korčula). In 1916 there was an incident with a mine explosion, causing the death of six men.
In 1917 it fought against submarines at the Bay of Quarnero (Kvarner).
It was transferred to the United Kingdom in 1920 but eventually broke down a few months later in Messina, Italy.
