Rock Island people sweltered
yesterday in the shade.

A heat wave, the intensity of
which was unheralded, came, gave

sick people who either lay around
their homes and perspired in their
evaporation of failing to find a
cool sport, or who went to parks
and water spots to seek relief from
the suffering caused by the severity
OF the high temperature.
The intensity of the heat was felt
most severely about o'clock in
the evening, after which for two
hours the thermometer read over go.
This temperature was on top of the
federal building in Davenport,
where the government weather bu-
reau thermometer is located in the
free air and in the shade, where the
temperature is several degrees
cooler than on the streets. On the
streets in Rock Island some Their

grees. The night continued hot and
there was much suffering. There
was a slight breeze at times during
the day. but it was warm. The fact
that the wind was from the north
during the day, was taken, however.
as an indication that the intense
heat would not last long and today
the temperature got as low as 81
degrees, giving welcome relief from
the intense heat of yesterday.

Out of 1876 boys and men entered

Some Of the boys who entered
were unable to attend the classes

their inability to accomplish the
feat. Only eight of the contestants
who were present daily could not
swim 20 feet on Saturday. These
boys were invited to come at 10: 81

day for additional lessons. The
