Decade - 1950s

In the early 60s, in the Ford line, the best hot rod motor was 427 CI engine introduced in 1963. In 1962, they offered a 406 CI for one year, as I recall. In 1961, the 390 CI was the top offering. Prior to that, it was just the 352 CI.

The T Bird offered a 430 CI engine borrowed from Lincoln from 1958 to 1963, I think.

The 406 & 427 models were they only ones that would develop real power.

The beatniks and the greasers were two subcultures that helped define the 1950s.

Television

In the 50s at Gray's Lake in Des Moines. In the 60s there was one at Oak Creek Park in Urbandale.

The Montreal Canadiens won the Stanley Cup 5 times in the 1950s, in 53, 56, 57, 58, and 59,

A 'bowl cut' in hair cutting got it's name from the way people cut hair themselves at home. Mothers often upturned a large mixing bowl on a child's head and used the bowl's edge as a guide for cutting. Vintage 'Dutch Boy' brand paint cans had a young boy with blond hair, cut in the traditional 'bowl cut'. Probably because of how it was done, and being the cheapest haircut for both boys and girls, the Bowl Cut led to teasing and ridicule, especially in the 1950s and 1960s. Though it may now have less bullying, in the 50s and 60s a bowl cut carried a lot of stigmas and cruelty from peers. See related link to see a Dutch Boy Paint can image.

The girls would wear skirts and tights while the boys would wear black pants and a leather top.

With the increase of autos in the 1950s, the demand for good quality roads increased. The federal government passed the Interstate Highway Act, 1956, pumping $1 billion a year into the construction of roads. By 1960, $2.9 billion was being used a year. The construction encouraged urban sprawl, as more people could now live in the suburbs and drive the freeways into the cities for work. But it also marked the beginning of the end to the city as a livable location. The middle class left the city to live in the suburbs, urban neighborhoods were split into isolated residential islands walled off from each other by concrete abutments of the freeways.

The question was the most popular, not the player identified necessarily as the best player of that era. Arguably, Mickey Mantle was the most popular player of the 50's, given the rise in TV coverage during that decade, Mantle's home team being that of the New York Yankees, and the success of that franchise during that time. Other notables during that era would of course be Willie Mays and Ted Williams. Mays popularity during that time might have been affected by his skin color and Williams missed time during the early 50's due to his service in the Korean War. Add to that that Williams was past his prime during the 50's, albeit still being a very good hitter. Still, Mantle became a baseball icon and was a hero to many a youngster growing up during this era.

To find out what we were trying to hide from them. Answer Spies, agents used to gather information on opposing parties, have been in use since the earliest communities were established. An individual or group of individuals who can infiltrate an adversary's area of control and gather information not readily available provide a great advantage in conflict. If a nation (or a corporation, political party, revolutionary group, etc.) can gather information about their adversary and its capabilities, it is better prepared to guard its own interests. This information may lead to a preemptory attack, establishment of stronger defenses, or increased diplomacy to avoid conflict. The Soviet Union needed spies to accomplish their intelligence gathering, just as every other country did (and continue to do).
