WVCA-Geller...and Grandbank.

[A Joseph Ross]

I remember Josiah Spaulding.  He was the Republican candidate for US 
Senate against Ted Kennedy in 1970, then he ran for Attorney General in 
1974 against Frank Bellotti and lost narrowly.  In the late 1960s, he 
was chair of the Massachusetts Republican State Committee.  He was also 
the founder of the Spaulding Rehabilitation Hospital, which was named 
after him after he died.
