The traditional story that *bner %oubleday invented baseball in 9?#@ in $oopersto/n1 3.B. has been discredited. 6ather1 in the 9?.8s *le&ander $art/right of the 3e/ Bor, Knic,erboc,er $lub standardi7ed many of the features and field dimensions still in use today. :t is /idely thought than the first game of modern baseball /as played by the ,nic,erboc,ers in the fall of 9?.4 in a par, called !lysian ields in Hobo,en1 3.A. )ports/riter. Henry $had/ic, /rote (9?4?) the first rule boo,1 and though the rules continue to change by small degrees1 by 9@88 the game /as essentially that of today. ":((:*6%) *nyone of a number of games played /ith a tampered1 leathertipped stic, called a cue and various numbers of balls on a rectangular1 cloth-covered slate table /ith raised and cushioned edges. Dames similar to billiards /ere popular in !ngland and rance in the 95th centuary1 and evidence even suggests that a billiards li,e game /as played in the 9.th centuary. The country of origin is disputedY!ngland1 rance1 :taly1 )pain and $hina have been credited by various historians /ith its invention. The game in its present form /as probably fully developed by 9?88. There are three main types of billiards< carom billiards1 poc,et billiards (also ,no/n as pool)1 and snoo,er. $arom billiards is played /ith three balls1 a cue ball and t/o obFect balls1 on a poc,etless tableC scoring is by caroms only1 i.e.1 by causing the cue ball to stri,e the obFect balls in specified /ays. Poc,et billiards is played /ith 94 obFect balls and a cue ball on a table /ith si& poc,etsC the essential obFect of the game is to cause the obFect balls to enter the poc,ets. )noo,er is similar to poc,et billiards1 e&cept that it uses 29 obFect balls and smaller poc,ets. "0I:3D +hen bo&ing /as first introduced at the *ncient 0lympic Dames1 /here Dree, fighters /rapped leather strips around their hands and a match /ould not end until one competitor /as beaten unconscious or raised his hand in surrender. The thought of going past 92 rounds is foreign to todayJs bo&ing /orld1 but in ancient times1 #5 minutes /ould not even constitute a /arm-up.
