      820 ILCS 205/3            from Ch. 48, par. 31.3
          Amends the Child Labor Law.  Provides that the  Law  does
      not  apply  to  the  work  of  a 14 or 15 year old minor in a
      program organized and supervised by a park  district  with  a
      population  of less than 500,000.  Prohibits a minor under 16
      from working between 10 p.m. (rather than 9 p.m.) and 7  a.m.
      during  school summer vacation periods (rather than from June
      1 until Labor Day).  Adds provisions regarding the  permitted
      working  hours  of  minors  over  14 who are employed by park
      districts or municipal parks and recreation departments.
