Illinois has good enough laws against the dumping of oil andr other barge wastes in its waterways* according to the statement.

Reports should give the names or numbers of the boats or barges involved, the location, date and time. Persons reporting violations should be willing to appear in court or to give, depositions. Samples of the polluted water, taken immediately after the dumping and photographs will help the law enforcement agencies make a tight legal case. ^ A KODAK CAMERA TO RECORD LIFE TOGETHER mmm Kodak reflex camera in a top-value flash outfit ' Low, low price -- but this complete outfit features Kodak's greqt new Brownie Starflex Camera that takes Ektachrome color slides as well as Kodacolor and black-and-white snapshots.

Greee M. rnoKv 40 McHenry, HL •C' At a Chicago retailer recently observed, "This is the electfic age ... electric servants are taking over in the home." Typical of this trend it tha change to the electric range. Women like their modern looks and appreciate surface units that keep pots and pans bright. And electric ovens hold the heat more evenly became they are insulated on all 6 sides (not merely five). Such refinements as automatic roasting, broiling, frying, boiling are easy to take, too. Equally important, you can be sure your new electric range will be modern for many years to come. nothing gives your kitchen the modern look likft a modern electric range and nothing cooks clearer, cooks cooler of cooks food faster! j See your electric appliance dealer j (J Public Service Combanv ™ I j| V ' O Commonwealth Edison Company - 'r o
