According to the office of Madison County State's Attorney Nicholas Byron, legal proceedings involving the Hall woman have been continued for two weeks. As yet, no indictments have been filed in the matter, according to Madison County authorities.

The Hall woman turned herself in to Pontiac City Police approximately two weeks ago, stating that she was involved in the death of Mrs. Ella Mae Taylor, a St. Louis County Democratic committewoman. She was held in the County Jail overnight and taken to Edwardsville the following day by Madison County deputies. The dead woman was found in a residence she maintained in Collinsvffle in March, 1972.

An autopsy indicated she had died of an acute brain hemorrhage. Directors of the Pontiac Chamber of Commerce last night authorized the Industrial Council committee to investigate starting a Dept. of Corrections work release program in Pontiac, At the request of the Chamber committee through Warden John Petrilli, two state officials attended the meeting and explained the operation of a work release program. Robert Bright of Chicago, director of the Illinois Parole and Work Release programs, and Gary Curl, director of the Dwight work release program, explained the program to the board and answered questions. Bright is considered the number three man in the Ulinois Dept.

of Corrections. James Barone, Chamber director, reported that the Industrial Council believes the program could provide needed workers for local industry and also benefit the inmates. "The community needs to know what work release is all about, and its impact," Bright Mrs. Willis, 89, dies; rites Friday Mrs. Delia Willis, 89, of Humiston Haven, died at 2 a.m.

today at Humiston Haven. She had been ill six weeks. Her funeral will be Frida'y at 10:30 a.m. at the Raleigh J. Harris Funeral Home, with the Rev.

David Bultemeier of the Methodist Church officiating. Burial will be in South Side Cemetery- Friends may call from 6 to 9 p.m. Thursday at the funeral home. Mrs. Willis was born Feb.

22, 1884 in Chenoa. She attended Chenoa schools. She was married to Charles Bivens. He died. Later, June 4,1905 she was married to Charles Willis.

He died in 1961. She was a member of the First'Christian Church and the Royal Neighbors. Surviving are a son, Charles Willis, Los Angeles, a daughter, Mrs. Marie Winter, Springfield; five grandchildren, and several great grandchildren. A daughter and son preceded her in death.

Another stated. He described it as a new concept to provide a gradual adjustment on the part of the inmate from the controlled institutional environment to the freedom of outside life. Selected inmates are permitted to work for private business or industry during the day and then return to the institution after working hours. The inmate is hired by business in competition with other persons and are paid the same wages as any other em- ploye. In return the inmate is required to pay room and board to the state and also support his family, removing them from welfare.

Bright said it costs the State a year to maintain the average inmate, but only $4,400 for an inmate in work release. Work release "seems to work well," Bright commented. The response from the men is good and the recidivism rate (rate of return to prison after release) is only 15 per cent compared to the conventional 60 to 65 per cent rate. After a 6 to 12 month work release program the inmate is eligible for parole, Bright said. "Most would not remain in Pontiac.

They would return to their families or home areas." According to Bright, work release first started at Stateville in 1968 on a small scale and is now offered in eight locations throughout the state. "The concept is spreading nationwide," he said. Bright made it clear, however, that not everyone is eligible for work release programs. Those convicted for aggravated kidnapping, treason or murder are not eligible.

XL-100 Fewer Service Calls If manufacturers could build TV sets that would be trouble free, during a long and useful life, there would be little need for TV repair shops. At the present time no manufacturer is building a completely trouble free TV set. Perfection of this degree may never come about. The RCA XL-100 solid state color TV chassis is a step in this direction. It is causing some concern to those businesses that specialize in TV repair.

The cost of labor for TV service has increased considerably over the past few years. As the cost of repair increases, it behooves TV manufacturers to build a product that needs repair less often. It also helps if the repair job itself is simplified. Our experience with the RCA XL-100 series of 100 Per Cent solid state color TV sets is, that the incidence of trouble is reduced considerably over previous models using tubes. We also find that the average cost of parts needed, per repair job, is substantially less.

Here at Schlosser's, service and new set sales are integrated. Repair service is part and parcel of the whole business. You do not need to call someone else for service. It is a way of doing business that makes the continued performance of your TV, just as important as the sale. WRIGHT'S Quality Furniture, Carpttirvg AAppliancts E.
