I am in building maintenance and I endorse and have used Bruce hardwood flooring products. Be sure to use the underlayment. You have a different problem though and that is the existing floor you have may be asbestos laden. By your description of the age of your house and the size of the tiles it fits the era when that was common to use in flooring. You can remove it your self but be very careful that dust and debris does not contaminate the rest of the house. If you don’t remove it and cover it up with the new flooring it will still be a disclosure issue should you ever decide to sell. Professional companies can be hired to remove it and guarantee a safe removal but they charge an arm an a leg. Also by not removing it you will have a raised floor that will be harder to match in the hallways. Bruce flooring had a video for do it your selfers contact them and see if it’s still available.
Good luck!
