BOXING.
By Telegraph—Press Assn., Copyright. (Received this day at 8 a. in.) SYDNEY, Aug. 10. At Parramatta to-night Vince Parker, New Zealand. (10.12), outpointed Douglas Lisson (12.2) over ten rounds. Parker led throughout, using an excellent straight left, and severely punishing his opponent, who was down twice in the fifth and again in the sixth round. Thereafter the New Zealander won easily. At Leichhardt, Eddie Butcher (9.12) nrtpointed Jack Paul (9.12) of New Zealand. Butcher was down for eight in the third round hut the New Zealander failed to follow up the advantage. He tired after the fifth round and his lack of condition robbed his punches of sting. At the final bell, he was very tired and slightly behind on points.
