I don't imagine anyone will be able to answer this one precisely, so I will give you an educated guess. In 1959, the best 50y dash by a school girl was propably 6.0-6.4 seconds on a stopwatch (not electronically timed). As I have coached many fine school girl sprinters from the late 60s onward, I am confident that no school girl ran faster than 6.0 in the late 50s. Today, anything under 6.8 would be considered good, and anything under 6.4 excellent for a high school girl, with the top runners a bit under 6.0 -- but today young women have far better and more extensive training and diets than they had in 1959.
