I moved to Miami in 1953 and didn't have A/C until about 1965. We used lots of fans and didn't really know any better since we never had A/C. I went to schools that didn't have A/C but we opened the windows. I remember having Gym running around the field playing softball, soccer or whatever and then taking a shower and trying to dry off but couldn't sweating too much.
