USUAL T OF S PRESIDENT, JOHNSON GO FISHING The temperature mounted to 86 yesterday for the highest mark reached yet this month, but, even though Old Col did exert himself to that extent, the July average this year has been far below normal with" unusually cold weather for so late In the summer prevailing, according to the weather bureau. Looking back through the records, the weather man disclosed that the lowest mark so far this month was 42.9 on July 8, which will probably stand during the rest of July and August. This mark Is exceedingly low for the generally warm month of July, and the records revealed that since the weather bureau was estab lished here the mercury in July has very seldom dropped below that point. The all-time low record of the month la 30 degrees, reached In 1021. Other low marks were 43 degrees recorded In 1020, 1029 and 1032, only .9 of a degree, lower than last Saturday's re cording. Due to the fact that there have been very few days with uncomfort ably warm temperatures, the summer so far has seemed much cooler than usual. Records during the first of the current month have been below the average, but the weather man re ported that the average for June baa been very close to normal. The maximum average was. In fact, slightly above normal during June, the weather man said, but the weath er lacked the sudden climbs In tem perature that lenda the general Im pression of continued heat. The minimum for June averaged 40.3. within .3 of a degree of the average low mark during the course of the put several years. The precipitation during June, how ever, was only a trace, a rare case which haa only been recorded offi cially once before, in the year 1019.
