Points Win For Rollinson
AUC3ILAND, Nov. 7. The New Zealand light-heavv weight boxiug champion, Doug Eollinson, beat the Vietorian cliampion, Jackie Marr, on points in a ten-round eontest at Otahuhu last night. The bout was one of the hardest seen in the Auckland district this season and in the final round when it still looked as thougli the deeision might go eitlier way, neither nian eould raise strength for a decisive blow. Marr, who was suft'ering from an injury to his right arm. did not show the speed and grace that have characterised his past ajipearanees in the city and Rollinson bored in heavily on him to pile up points.
