DAY IN HISTORY

Jun 3, 1956: Rock and roll is banned in Santa Cruz, California
Santa Cruz, California<http://www.history.com/topics/california>, a favorite early haunt of author Ken Kesey and his Merry Pranksters, was an established capital of the West Coast counterculture scene by the mid-1960s<http://www.history.com/topics/1960s>. Yet just 10 years earlier, the balance of power in this crunchy beach town 70 miles south of San Francisco<http://www.history.com/topics/san-francisco> tilted heavily toward the older side of the generation gap. In the early months of the rock-and-roll revolution, in fact, at a time when adult authorities around the country were struggling to come to terms with a booming population of teenagers with vastly different musical tastes and attitudes, Santa Cruz captured national attention for its response to the crisis. On June 3, 1956, city authorities announced a total ban on rock and roll at public gatherings, calling the music "Detrimental to both the health and morals of our youth and community."
