SOME RELIEF IN
HEAT FORESEEN
Somewhat Lower Tempera-
lures, Is Forecast Made
for Sunday.

The city gladly said farewell to-
day to one of the hottest Junes it
has experienced, with the prospect
of slightly cooler weather arriving

Weekend visitors to the south
ern section of the state are likely
to encounter the same heat wave
that has Stifled Indianapolis for
days, according to J. H. Arlington,
United States weather observer.
The central and northern por-
tions of the state are the more like
ly to get the benefit of lower tenn
perature, according to Arlington
The forecast for the weekend is:
Slightly cloudy; local showers to-
night and Sunday; somewhat lower
temperatures"
The mercury started off today to
bear out the hope revealed by
Armington's prediction as it was 10
degrees cooler today than Friday
at 6 a. m. with a mark of rs. Tenn
peratures up to a. m. today all
were lower than they were Friday.
Friday saw the June 80 heat rec
ord equalled when the mercury
touched 81 twice. A somewhat
freakish thunderstorm brought a A.
degree drop in an hour, but the
mercury bounded upward again to
81 at $50 D. m.
June saw seventeen days that had
temperatures of 80 degrees or more.
