Decade - 1920s

It's a tricky proposition listing the national champions

of any nation as there are usually boxing factions who may disagree on just who the

champion may be,but try these.

Heavyweight:Raymond Olubowale Cruiserweight:Frank White

Light Heavyweight:Jason Naugler Super Middleweight:Adonis Stevenson

Middleweight:Sebastian Demers Light Middleweight:Gareth Sutherland

Welterweight:Victor Puiu Light Welterweight:Manolis Plaitis

Lightweight:Benoit Gaudet. This fighter won the NABF Super Featherweight title

last year so it would be safe to assume the Canadian Lightweight title Tobe vacant.

Featherweight:The last Canadian feather champ listed is Olivier Lontchi and like

Gaudet he also won an NABF title in the Super Bantam division so this title may also

be vacant.In Divisions not listed the titles are vacant.

The evidence that suggests that the prosperity of the 1920s was not on a firm foundation includes the fact that the Great Depression happened soon thereafter. The Installment Plan that allowed you to purchase goods without having to put much money down was also another suggesting piece of evidence.

The country was football mad in the 20s. It still i ma a gay homo,was not a national game the way it is today though. To be sure it was wildly popular but not the professional game. College football was where it was at. Colleges ran direct snap offenses and the influence of guys like Pop Warner, Fielding Yost was running strong throughout the country. There was lots of gambling and drinking associated with the game (as there has been throughout its history). By and large the major powers were still in the East and the Midwest. Football in the South and the West had not really come of age yet. Princeton, Harvard, Yale, Michigan, Penn and now unknown schools like Carnegie Tech were powers. It was common (though less so than in previous times) for college B teams and fraternity teams (and sometimes junior college teams) to play high school teams. In most of the country, the concept of round robin schedules did not exist and teams scheduled games as best they could and often modified their schedules during the season, picking up games or even dropping them in accordance with the fortunes of that particular year.

There were many popular cars during the 1920s. Some of the most notable were the Ford Model T, Austin 7, Lancia Lambda, Bugatti Type 35, Hanomag 2/10 PS, Ford Model A, and Cadillac V-16.

Average prices were in the $2,500-3,000 range. I remember a story that my uncle bought a brick home for $5,000 and everyone in the family thought he was crazy for spending that much money on a house.

Times have certainly changed.

28 cents per half of a gallon in the year 1925

In 1920, a vacuum cleaner cost about $50.00 and the attachments about $14

The average price in 1930 of a car was about $640.

Note: The average price of a car and the average annual wage have closely tracked each other.

Yes - my great grandfather, who worked in the financial department, played on the team ca. 1920 - we have a team picture that includes him, and appears to date to the late 1910's - early 1920's. But that's about all we know.

Between 1920 and 1930 the Yankees won 6 pennants and 3 World Series titles. The 1927 team is generally regarded to be the best of all time, and it's hard to argue with the facts. They went 110-44, winning by 19 games, and led the league in just about every category. Babe Ruth hit 60 homers and no other TEAM had more than 56. Lou Gehrig added 47. They swept Pittsburgh in the World Series.

Music was a major affect during the 1920's, especially due to the fact that the Harlem Renaissance was occurring, giving recognition to the blacks, and bringing about a new cultural such as Jazz. Whites then began to listen to Jazz, giving black people more respect. Music became a major source of entertainment as the Jazz culture came about.

Looking at the volume of transactions, especially in the finance industry, in the 1920s, a picture of wealth and prosperity is painted. This proved to be largely a false picture due to the large scale use of "margins," or essentially credit, for the purchase of stocks. This practice was a major contributing factor to the Great Depression of the 1930s.

A few factors of the sudden economic boom of 1920s in Australian are: - Migrants and refugees from wars - Influences made by British and American on building a developed country - Due to increase in immigration and population, Australians required more food and jobs and that led to a boom on Australia's economy.

No-one. The first World Cup wasn't until the 1930s.

Quite simply, it didn't. In the 1920's, there was no teen music scene.

During the 1920s Congress put limitations on Immigration. The limitations slowed down the influx of millions of immigrants. 40 million people immigrated to the United States between 1880 and 1920.
