Heavyweight Battle at Madison Square
Garden Tonight.

New York. March 14.-Bombadier
Wells, the British heavyweight cham
pion, with probably from Is to 20
pounds advantage in weight and a con-
siderably stronger ring record, ruled
favorite in his scheduled ten rounds
bout, with 'Gunboat'' Smith, of Cali
fornia, in Madison Square Garden to-
night. Smiths followers, however, as
serted that the former sailor was in
such perfect condition that he was GER
tain to make the bout a far more
troublesome affair than Wells admirers
expected, if not to win over the Eng
ish champion.
Wells great cIeverness and hitting
power were displayed here last sum-
mer in bouts with Al Palzer and Tom

that it is held at the home of the

Naismith, head of the K. L. depart
ment of physical education. originated
basketball in 1891, while on the fac
ulty of the Springfield training school
at Springfield, Mass. DR.. Naismith
found that there was need for a
sport that would eliminate the rough
tackling in football and outlined the
rules of basketball, much as they now
stand. The origin of the name of the
game is found in the peach baskets, |
which DR.. Naismith tackled up as the |
first goals.
