The delay is probably just the secretary's laziness, but if for some reason your professor hasn't written the letter yet, you want to notify him now so that s/he can crank one out over the weekend. I think you have until the 6th of September.

This. I know my school has one central person uploading OSCAR recommendations for everyone, and she always gets them through before the applications are supposed to go out. But I don't think it can hurt at all to follow up with the professor, or whomever is doing the recs. Just give them a call... I think they'd understand that this is such a big deal for students that they wouldn't be annoyed by it, if that's what you're worried about.
