HfcAT WAVE (Contlniird from Pace Oar) 24 hours of blistering heat as September heat records fell before the onslaught of the second late summer heat wave. No relief was forseen for the state until possibly tomorrow, and then mainly in the northern section of the state. Records for September were dashed in nearly all sections of Indiana yesterday and schools in many towns were closed to move the students from sweltering rooms.

At Indianapolis the temperatur* reached 99 degrees to shatter the all-time September record of 98.8 set only last week. Schools were closed and some prostrations were reported, j At Kokomo the official government reading was 102 to set a new a.ltime record for September. At Portland the mercury climbed to 101.5 for another all-time record for the
month.
Marion reported a temperature 100.5 for the hottest September day since 1913 and at 1-aPorte the thermometer climbed to 102.9, the hottest day in three years. At LaPor.e last week the mercury reached 102.5 to break the previous record. Continued warm was predicted for tf'iay, but weather observers foresaw possible showers for northern Indiana tomorrow to presage a break in the month-long dromh ; which has affected nearly all late | crops to some extent.
