Fifty pounds advantage in weight, six inches in height and a reach like the arm of a derrick could not win last night for Jess . Willard from "Gunboat" Smith, who won the ref eree's decision in the last round of a 20-round bout. The heavier punch of the more experienced and aggressive veteran counted for more in the re sult than the talk and strength of his towering ' opponent. ' Inexperience lost the fight. Willard has strength and courage, but he was too good na tured and sluggish. ' .. ' ; Fillet of 8ole It Rare. .
