 All Heat Records Broken
Max. Temperature, 113 – Only Slight Relief Forecast
11 January 1939
Bradman had a rival in Melbourne yesterday – a meteorological rival, which scored its 99 before lunch, and a new record century for Melbourne just before afternoon tea, and kept a perspiring but interested crowd watching the ‘score’ go up. [A, 11/1/39] Food and Clothing on the Way – Organisations Co-operate
11 January 1939
While fire fighters were busy in the stricken areas the public of Melbourne was showing its sympathy in a practical and generous way, with the result that immediate relief measures have been organised, and help in the form of foodstuffs, from the Red Cross Society, the State Relief Committee and the Housewives’ Association of Victoria. The Red Cross Society sent a representative to Toolangi with a load of foodstuffs, and two more men to Erica with 300 women’s and children’s garments, 50 pairs of shoes, and bed coverings.
