Fred Dyer, the English welter- weight. and his manager, Al Lippe, have parted. Anyway, that's what the welterweight claims.

 John Reisler, matchmaker of the Tulsa A. c. of Tulsa, Okla, today wired that he finally matched Willie LoughHn of Philadelphia with Ted Kid Lewis for a bout at his club on Decoration day. Efforts to have this Ted Kids manager, proved futile. however. Sam Harris of Baltimore also sought this match.
 But Ted Kid Lewis will don the mitts this month. This is a fact, for his manager has matched him to swap punches for 12 rounds with Eugene Brousseau of Montreal be- fore the Canadian Athletic Club of Montreal Wednesday. May 21. This will mark TSd's return to the ring. He has just been released from a hos pital where he was confined since his defeat at the hands of Jack Brit ton.
