PALM SPRINGS, Calf, Feb

PALM SPRINGS, CALI, Feb
is (AP).-Dick Mayer, former
National Open champion was
ISL $50 richer today and Lloyds
of London's famous bell, If it
still rings, must be tolling a
dirge.
Lloyds for the third year
gambled $50, 900 against a hole
in-one being scored in the rich
Palm Springs Classic and for
the third year lost.
For the three years Lloyds
is now out of pocket $1l3,200.
Mayer scored a hole-in-one
Saturday. and no one else
duplicated the feat yesterday,
SO he gets to keep the big pot
less taxes, of course. That
extra $1,050 comes from May
er's l0-place finish in the 90
hole tournament.
Now the sponsors are Won
dering what Lloyds will re-
quire as a premium for under
writing the gamble-if the firm
is still interested in the 1868
tournament.
So little did Lloyds think of

year did some tall thinking be-
fore finally agreeing to under
write the thing again, this time
for $4,000.
So Mayer upset the odds, and
now there must be consterna-
ton in London town.
incidentally, safeguards are
taken to convince the under
writer's that a hole-on-one is
legitimate.
Official scorers with each
playing group must sign the
card, And the players must at
test to the score on each hole.
Additionally, an official of the
country club must witness the
withdrawal of the ball from
the cup. 1t can't be done with
out his supervision.
And then a photostatic copy
of the official card itself is at
tached to all papers required
in the negotiation.
They used to toll the bell at
Lloyds when an insured ship
went down at sea. Now it may
be when a small golf ball,
struck but once, goes down.

Mrs. Meck|ey Dies,
Prominent Linkswomon

Mrs. Betty Palmer Meckley,
the first woman golfer in this
section to hold the District,
Maryland and Middle Atlantic
titles at the same time, was
found dead yesterday in her
apartment at 270O @ street NV.
Mrs. Meckley, who was 81,
was a member of Kenwood
Country Club, and formerly
was member of Indian Spring.
Relatives became alarmed
when they had not heard from
Mrs. Meckley since Friday, and
received no answer to repeated
phone calls. They gained en-
trance to the apartment and
found her dead, apparently of
a heart attack. The coroner
said she had been dead about
II hours. Mrs. Meckley had been
under treatment for high blood
pressure for about a year and
a half.
Held Numerous Titles
Mrs. Meckley won all of the
major women's tournaments in
this section at least once
numerous club championships
at Indian Spring and Kenwood,
many one-day events, and
played on several champion
ship teams at KenWood. She
won the National Women's
Senior championship twice,
and was a prize winner on
several other occasions.
Mrs. Meckley had not been
as active from a competitive
standpoint for the last several
years, although she won an i'm
portant club event in October.
Mrs. Meckley won the District
Women'S championship in 1890
1885; the Maryland State
Women's in 1856, and 1941.
and the Middle Atlantic in
1935-1937-1944. Her victories
included The Evening Star Cup
in 1941, and the Kenwood
women's title in 1942-l945-
1S47-8-9.
Was Strong Competition
An extremely graceful golfer,
Mrs. Meckley relied on amazing
consistency and a strong COM
petitive approach to the game
for most of her victories. She
promoted the sport at every
opportunity. One of the
Women's D. C. Golf ASsocia-
tion's cup events is the Meckley
Cup.
She was a great friend of the
late Mrs. Frank r. Keefer of
Chevy Chase, first three-time
president of the WDGA, and
donor of the Keefer Cup. Mrs.
Meckley won low gross in the
Keefer Cup several times.

Extra Burden Of The Ailing

covered that 16 per cent of immigrants
from one backward country were found
to be suffering from serious physical or
mental ailments.
Officials in Israel also report that
many sick, elderly persons are being
dumped on the country by their children.
They say the elderly persons from free
countries have been sent to Israel as tour
lists and have had to be kept in Israeli
hospitals or Institutions
In investigating these hard problems
of immigration it was agreed, the Jeru-
salem Post reports, sit is impossible to
sift out all the ill persons in advance, and
furthermore, in the case of rescue imml-
grafton, the ill should not be abandoned"
Israel still needs all the help we can
offer The country not only is harassed
by hostile Arabs at its borders, it also
has grave problems in the fields of immi-
grafton.
Today, with immigration at a record
high point in recent years, hard cash is

pledges to CJA, do SO today. Help ease
the problems of a dedicated young ma

The news of the gains in the economy
of the State of Israel are highly encour-
aging.
It might have come about that the
American Jewish community could nave
taken a greater percentage of its fund
raising for local needs except that sud-
denly broad new immigration hit Israel.
The Iron Curtain surprisingly was
raised from Eastern European countries
and this exodus plus the movement of
Jews out of troubled North Africa threw
a new burden on Israel
Israelis themselves have sacrificed a
great deal in maintaining the policy of
the "ingathering of the exiles." And there
has been more than a financial sacrifice.
1t has been revealed that Israel has
received IAN excessive number of immi
grants with communicable diseases
notably tuberculosis or with serious
physical or mental ailments requiring
state care"
The Jerusalem Post points out that
three of every 1000 immigrants during
