Default Motor question

I'm too tired to reason this out; does anybody know: Can a motor
designed to run off 50 Hz successfully run off 60Hz? I dimly recall
that motors designed for one frequency will operate safely on the
other, but which way can you go? Assume I'm using the proper voltage
for the motor.
