Sandhills Temperature Ranged
From 103 to Seven During 1935
December Weather Broke 17-
Year Record.—Year as Whole
j Colder, Drier
j By Charles Maoiiuley
< The year 1935 was much colder and
not as moist as 1934, the local rec
ords showing 52.30 inches of rain as
' against the normal of 49.65 inches, an
' increase of 2.65 inches for the year,
and a decrease from the preceeding
year of 3.11 inches. Nine and one-
half inches of snow in December is
not included.
I Temperature averages for the year
recorded a mean of 59.9, nearly three
degrees less than 1934, also less than
the long time normal. Our hottest
' days, the 6th and 8th of August, reg
istered 103 degrees, and the coldest,
January 28th only seven above zero.
The heaviest rainfall for any one
day came on the 5th of September
with 2.62 inches, the same month
giving us the greatest precipitation
for any one month of hte year, 11.76
inches, 8.18 inches above the normal
for the month.
Not since December, 1917 has the
opening month of winter played such
havoc in the Southland where the nor
mal expectation of a pleasant holiday
season rarely fails. Among the
freaks of the month w’ere a high of
61 on the 10th, a low of 10 on the
21st, and only one day with a min
imum temperature above freezing.
Winter came in on the 22nd with a
temperature of 23 above zero, and
snow. Christmas Day dropped to 18,
and between the 22nd and 29th nine
and one-half inches of sleet and snow
fell and froze in an icy crust that
bid fair to remain for weeks, but the
new year gave us a providential rain
that completely dissipated the snow
and ice. The maximum temperature
for the month was 43.25, minimum
24.02, average 33.6 or 11.2 degrees
lower than the average for the month,
a record not approached since 1917
with its low of 33 degrees. Here are
the figures:
Lcng time Max. Min. Aver.
Average 54.9 34.6 44.8
1934 54.8 30.2 42.5
1935 43.2 24. 33.6
Following is a table showing rain
fall during 1935, the first figures be
ing rainfall in inches, and the second
the excess, or deficiency, in inches for
each month of the year:

to the high court’s overthrow of the ;
AAA without offering an immediate |
substitute, but earlier in his address '
asserted that the "basic issue” of;
the 1936 campaign would be "the re-1
tenti n of popular government.”
Applause all but drowned out his,
concluding words: "We will not re
treat.”
A 70-second ovation greeted the
President as he rose to speak direct
ly to the nearby two thousand Dem
ocratic leaders and adherents, crowd
ed into a hotel ballroom for dinner at
$50.00 a plate. The diners included
members of the national committee i
who meet tomorrow to select city and
date for the party’s convention.
