DAILY Dempsey "Yes" Man To Flynn, Keane Finds But ex-Champ's Sunday Workout Is Convincing Demonstration That His Condition Is Improved Always On Toes Boxing Partners Jack Says 'Yes' to Flynn's Prediction Left Hook Will Finish Tunney's Title Holding BY ALBERT W. KEANE. Lincoln Fields, Crete, Sept. Dempsey today proved letter perfect in the role of Leo P.

Flynn's "Yes" man. "My mauler wit. knock Tunney out and regain h's championship," the veteran hundler of fighters told us this afternoon, after the former king of the heavyweign's had finished a strenuous, although uninspiring session with three of his sparring partners. He worked before 150 selected guests, secluded from the prying eyes of hundreds of would-be spectators, who were kept from Lincora Fields by efficient policing and 8 strong, high wire fence. "Jack will left hook the cultured Me Tunney right out of the ring.

He will make no mistake this time. He is 10 wonderful condition physically, his mind is serene, and he is hitting 35 hard as at any time in his career. "Isn't that so Jack?" "Yes, I'll Be Ready." "Yes, I'll be ready this time," Jack replies. "And don't forget this," Flynn continues. "I'm handling Dempsey in this fight.

I'm going to be the only boss 1n1 his corner. He's going to handled right for that's one thing I've learned in these many years in the racket, even though I've learned nothing else. Jack will get every assistance from his corner. He won't have to fight his fight alone, like he did in Philadelphia. You watched him today.

You know that he's full of pep, full of confidence and right on his toes. Jack is hitting harder than in any training he pas ever done. Isn't that right, "Yes, I am," replied the loquacious Mr Dempsey. adding one more item to our claim that he is the perfect "yes" man. "And let me tell you this" went on the talkative Flynn, "there's no dissension in this camp.

We're all for the champ. He's had no interruptions in his training, nothing to worry him. We are just a happy family out here at this race track, aren't we, Jack?" Yes, We're Happy. And Jack thereupon clinched h's cla.m to the "Yes" man title. Having had A trying ordeal crush11 ing the sanctum gate of which L'ncoln admits to Fields, the douse correspondent thought it was almost Dempsey played some other role than that of the perfect "Yes" man and asked him directly if he was in 1 good shape for a strenuous battle.

Dempsey Himself. Thereupon the former champion stepped out of his role, became himself once more, and sa'd: "This time I won't be wobbly and I won't be shaky. Tell your folks who lost money on me last year that they have a good chance of getting back. I'm sure the fight will end with, someone on the floor and I'm sure that someone will not be me." Leo Will be Heard. Dempsey might have gone further bus Leo "Percentage," as the boys in his Lake Region call him, came right back into the picture by taking the interview away from Dempsey to tell me (Concluded 011 Page 2.)

Free State Government Still Leading Has 58 Seats to 51 For Opposition With 43 Election Districts Remaining to Report Dublin, Irish Free State, Sept.

(AP.) -With the results from 43 constituencies not yet known in the recent election, the returns thus far tabulated, give the government total strength of 58, against 51 for the opposition parties. The composition of the government combination is: Government party 44, Farmers 4, Independents 10. The opposition is composed of De Valerites (Fianna Fail) 38, Labor 10, Irish League 2, Workers' Union 1. Will Have Slim Margin. The Republicans have put up a good fight and are running the government very close, and the most President Cosgrave's party can now hope for is to lead by half a dozen seats.

It is believed that all the members of the cabinet will be reelected, and as possibly a dozen Independents and eight or ten Farmers will support Mr. Cosgrave's reelection as chief executive there is likely to be no change in the ministry. But the government majority will be slender and precarlous, and since a new appeal to the electorate will be futile, business must be done by give and take methods. The main contention will be on the Public Safety Act, which Mr. Cosgrave says he will insist upon enforcing.

De Valera Opposition Leader. Among the successful De Valera candidates is Frank Kerlen, who was arrested in connection with the murder of Kevin O'Higgins, but was liberated in the absence of evidence. The defeat of Tom Johnson, who was leader of the opposition since the 'Dail was established, removes Cosgrave's most likely successor. Eamon De Valera will probably be obliged to figure as leader of the opposition. County Clare remains under De Valera spell, returning only one government candidate, as against three Republicans and one Laborite.

The defeat of Mrs. Clarke in Dublin North robs the Republican party of its only woman member. Passenger Train Runs Head-On Into Freight One Killed and Seven Injured in Collision At Carpenter, Mich.

His only comment was contained in this statement, which he telegraphed to the exchampion: "My Dear Mr. Dempsey: "Your open letter to me has been brought to my attention.

My reaction is to ignore it and its evident trash completely. However I cannot resist saying that I consider it a cheap appeal for public sympathy. "Do you think this is sportsmanlike?"
