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.
