Farmers of parts of Northern Illinois and In some sections of Wisconsin hailed with Joy downpours that broke wave of Intensive heat, and brought aid to crops, while residents of cities in the rain area welcomed the pre cipitation as a relief from a rapidly growing fire hazard. Nearly a half Inch of rain 'fell last night In the Chicago area, accom panied by winds and thunderstorms that sent the temperature tumbling from 90 la 67. A fifty-mile an hour wind whipped Chicago, damaging sev eral unfinished buildings at the Cen tury of Progress grounds. Rains ranging upwards of one Inch fell in some sections of Wisconsin yesterday and lost night. Rain was also reported in Detroit. Grand Rapids and Sault Ble Marie, Mich., as well as St. Joseph, Mo., To ledo, O.. and Laporte. Ind., but on the whole the showers were not re garded by crop experts as sufficient to salvage substantial amounts of crops that have been burning for days beneath a relentless sun. In Nebraska, one of the hardest hit of tho rainless states, there were a few light showers that helped bring relief from tho Intensive heat, but which gave little help to the farm ers. Showers were predicted In parts of Illinois, Indiana, lower Michigan, Mis. sour I and Kansas today, but no gen eral downpour was In sight. F. It.
