1911. It was the warmest Feb, 2 ever recorded in Indianapolis. Indiana Bell Telephone Co. reported trouble attributed to weather had been held at a minimum. Only difficulty was overloaded wires to the weather bureau, newspapers and the transportation services. Switchboard Swamped The switchboard at the Federal building, headquarters of the weather bureau, was overloaded | from 6 a. m. until noon. by calls! of anxious citizens trying to find out about-“the weather.

Roads Hazardous

- The heavy snow of the past 36 hours, whipped by winds ranging up to 30 miles an hour, kept suburban highways and city streets in extremely hazardous condition. Packed ice and ‘snow on city streets made travel exceedingly dangerous, Indiana Railroad suburban busses were reported operating considerably ‘behind schedule and city busses also were operating late. The Indianapolis Railways, Inc, busses, however, were all operating and dispatchers struggled to keep schedules as near on time

_ Trains, not affected by the strike, were operating on schedule. . The biting cold was not an exclusive Indianapolis feature. In Evansville an all-time low of -21 degrees below zero paralyzed the southern Hoosier city. ; In the deep South a low of 14 above was recorded in Tallahassee, Fla. Other northern and central Florida cities reported subfreezing temperatures as smudge pots failed to balk damage in the lush fruit and vegetable growing
