Redmond said "In much of western Oregon, the most probable outcome is that IMS will end up among the driest 10 prrcenl of the calendar years on record " A ccord in g to R edm ond, last month was unusually hot in many areas around the state, peaking at 106 degrees in Medford and Grants Pass In the central and southern W illa m e tte V a lle y , it was the warmest July in 27 years, with the d aytim e m axim u m about 4 1 degrees above average, and in Corvallis the month's highest since 1917 It was (he warmest summer month at Union and Moro since at least 1931. and in Medford It tied with 1938 for the hottest July on record E ven 4.800 foot high Santiam Pass reached 90 degree» on July 20 Continuing a dry spell that began Construction begins at site of proposed church 676-9228 . -V Construction is underway at the site of the new Mormon Church building in Lexington Groundbreaking ceremonies were held June 21 with the church s state president Allan Alder and Morrow County Judge lion McKlligott present The white brick building is expected to be completed by late October or early November at which time an open house for the public will be held T h e Gazette-Times Pioneer M emorial Hospital in Heppner rep o rts a d m ittin g and discharging the following patients during the past week Patricia McMinn, Heppner • ad m illed August 5 discharged August 8; Wallace Matthews, lone admit ted August 8. discharged August 9. and Maurice Klder.

The the first week of June almost no rain fell until the end of the month in moat of western Oregon, including more than a V lday rainless period in Pendleton. Klsmath Falls. Medford. Kugrne. Corvallis and Portland The unusual amounts of solar radiation, heat and low relative humidity also caused pan evapora tion values among the highest on record at many locations Portland received over 473 hours of bright sunshine and the 9 8 inches of evaporated water at Corvallis was the third highest since 19a That pattern was broken how ever, by some heavy rains at the end of the month that actually pushed Kugrne and Rose burg to five times their long term average rainfall for July Rut the late rains were only a small start in recharging (he deple ted soil moisture that has worried farmers.
