Nikita Khrushchev became premier of the USSR.

Summertime Blues was recorded and WC Handy died (interesting juxtaposition).

Literally nothing happened on my birthday. Just looked it up. I'm sure someone got some snow that day.

My birth might have been the most exciting thing.

Germany declared war on the US in 1941. The Last time humans walked on the moon also happened.

The NBA All-Star Game, held at Detroit’s Olympia Stadium, featured a first in NBA All-Star history: the sharing of game MVP honors. Rookie Elgin Baylor (Seattle University) of the Lakers had 24 points & 11 rebounds, and Hawks veteran Bob Pettit (LSU) had 25 points, & 16 rebounds. They split the honors as the West topped the East 124-1 08.

While the award was Pettit’s second straight and third overall, it was one of two awards Baylor won that season (the other being the Rookie of the Year). The West used big runs in the second and fourth quarters to bury the East, which struggled from the field (32.4 FG pct.).
