<mods:abstract>This copy of two-page document discusses the first game of basketball and the creation of the Basketball Hall of Fame built on Springfield College campus in the 1960s, and a new one being opened in 1985 in downtown Springfield. Images of the first basketball team and 1961 team are included, though they are not very clear due to the fact that it is copy. To learn more about Dr. James Naismith, see: https://springfield.as.atlas-sys.com/agents/people/645</mods:abstract>
