Moving Day For a House-- A six-room house moves along with the traffic on Madison Street in Suburban Oak Park Wednesday during a one-mile move. Site of the house was purchased by a hotel for use as a parking lot. Owners of the home decided they'd rather move it a mile rather than wreck it. A truck (now shown) pulled the 60 by 39-foor structure.
