Friends may call at the funeral home Wednesday. Richard B. Neff MOORELAND Richard B. Neff, 59, owner of Neff's Greenhouse here, died Tuesday afternoon in Henry County Memorial BANGKOK, Thailand (AP) -Thomas Merton, 53, the Trappist monk who wrote "The Seven Storey Mountain," and other best sellers, was electrocuted Tuesday when he moved an electric fan and touched a short in the cord, local Catholic sources reported. Merton's body was found late In the afternoon on the floor of a room he was occupying during a visit to Bangkok.

A doctor who was summoned said the monk's heart failed after the electric shock. A priest at the Church of St. Louis said Merton was not missed when he failed to show up for lunch. But In late afternoon other monks became worried, searched for him and found the body. Merton had come to the Far East several months ago to attend a number of religious conferences.

He came to Bangkok for a meeting with the Dalai Lama, the spiritual leader of the Tibetan Buddhists who fled from his homeland when the Chinese Communists seized control there. Books Listed In 1966 he wrote "Conjectures of a Guilty Bystander" and in 1967 "Mystics and Zen Masters." His "The Waters of Siloe," written shortly after "The Seven Storey Mountain," was acclaimed as a sensitive discussion of monastery life. Most of his works reflected the contemplative and rural life Merton led at the Gethsemani Abbey of the Cistercian Order, South of Bardstown, Ky. Nine members of the Evening Optimist Club expressed an endorsement of an extended city recreation program at a meeting of the Richmond Park Board in City Hall Tuesday night. Optimists at the meeting were William Scott Milot, Robert Richardson, Charles Wiles, Charles Bartlemay Robert McKinley, Eugene Luther, John Beckman, Granville J.

Coomes and Fred Richter. They asked what they could do to take an active part in getting an 18-hole golf course in Richmond. On behalf of the board, Stanley Vigran, president, said that if City Council approves a bond issue, they could do a civic service with a bond issue petition. The board has learned that federal aid to build golf courses "is on the bottom of the list." Thus, it remains uncertain that federal money will be forthcoming for construction of the proposed 18-hole golf course. The board took an option in Sep tember to purchase 165 acres north of Richmond, known as the Williams farm.

The farm, said to be ideal for a golf course, has rolling land and would require a mini mum of earth moving to make a first class course, Don Mc- Bride, park superintendent, said. Vigran told the visitors it is the board's intention to provide the city with a topflight course that would attract golfers from over the state to Richmond for tournament play. McBride said 120 of the 165 acres would be used in laying out the course and the remaining land, and 15 acres for construction of a clubhouse for equip ment, showers, etc. Thirty acres with improvements would be used by the greenskeeper and for storage. Improvements include useable buildings.

"The topography of the Williams farm," McBride said, "is by far the best we found in looking over several farms available for a golf course." It was explained that the spring rains could be harnessed for use during the summer season. In answer to a question on what the acreage of the present Glen Miller Golf Course would be used for, McBride said there are tentative plans including a second municipal swimming pool and two more ball diamonds. Vigran commended the Optimist Club for its Little League program as part of its constitutional aims of "friend to the boy." Board members indicated citizen interest in the park program could go a long way toward establishment of a progressive park system and the help offered from Evening Optimists indicates a genuine Interest in an expanded sports and recreation program for Richmond. McBride discussed the proposed building of a new concession stand at Clear Creek Park. During the meeting, the board renewed its contract with Ron DeMao as city golf professional.

The 1969 season will be his sixth at the Glen Miller course. At the meeting were Vigran, McBride, Frank Calvelage, Robert Merchanthouse and Charles W. Hilton, board members, and city councilman, Phil Marino. crimination by employment agencies and state agencies which receive federal funds.

Thomas Merton famous author The trip to Bangkok was one of the first breaks in a self-imposed isolation that Merton began two years ago. He with drew, he told friends, to pray, meditate and study. Merton actively opposed war which he called "an avoidable tragedy." "The problem of solving International conflict without massive violence has become the number one problem of our time," he said recently. Merton was born in Prades, a village in the French Pyrenees, in 1915 of an American Quaker mother and a British Anglican father. He grew up and studied in France, England, Bermuda and the United States, taking a master's degree at New York City's Columbia University.

1, he said, it will cover all but the first $44. He noted that the hospital bill for an average stay by a Medicare beneficiary now runs about $600. The hospital deductible amount the amount for which the Medicare beneficiary is responsible he explained, is similar to the deductible amounts provided in many auto insurance policies where the car owner pays the first $50 or $100 of a repair bill and the insurance company pays the rest. The increase of $4 in the portion of the hospital bill for which a Medicare beneficiary is responsible results from a provision in the law requiring an annual review of the deductible. The first such review, the law-provided, was to be made in 1968.

The law states that if this annual review shows that hospi- tal costs have changed signifi cantly, the hospital deductible must be adjusted for the following year, with any necessary adjustments made in $4 steps to avoid small annual changes. i Garrett said that when the hospital deductible amount I changes, the law requires com-j parable changes in the dollar amounts a Medicare beneficiary i pays toward a hospital stay of more than 60 days, or a posthos- has a hospital stay or more I than 20 days. These amounts, also, will go up 10 per cent, beginning Jan. 1, 1969. When a Medicare beneficiary 'has a hostpial stay of more than 60 days, he will pay $11 a day for the sixty-first through the ninetieth day, up from the present $10 per day.

If he has a posthospital stay of over 20 days in an extended care facility, he will pay $5.50 per day toward the costs of the twenty-first through the one-hundredth day. If he needs to draw on his "lifetime reserve," the reserve account a beneficiary can draw upon if he ever needs more than 90 days of hospital care in the same benefit period, he will now pay $22 a day for each reserve day used, instead of $20 per day. For Medicare beneficiaries who enter a hospital before the end of this year, the hospital deductible amount will be $40, rather than $44, Garrett pointed out. Also, the dollar amounts they will pay toward the cost of a hospital stay of more than 60 days or for posthospital extended care of more than 20 days will be payable at the old rate even though the services may be provided in 1969, rather than in 1968. Four Held After 19 Windows Smashed Two nine-year-old boys, a nine-year-old girl and a 13-year-old boy were picked up by police Tuesday for malicious destruction of property.
