Here are the two forms supported by Algol ...
Just a note, that’s Algol 68. In my time, “Algol” used unqualified was
understood to refer to Algol 60.
This seems to have been the case before Algol 68 appeared.
(I'm not sure this matches with what you call "in my time".)
I named it always explicitly as "Algol 60" and "Algol 68".
But at some instance of time I read somewhere that "Algol"
would "now" refer to Algol 68, so I changed my habit.
But since your post shows that this may not (not yet?) be
common usage I'll be more specific in future. - Thanks for
the hint!
