 DEMPSEY IN
 GYM STUNTS

NEW YORK. Nov 16.-NoW that the election is over and everybody can come out in the open, Leo Flynn has resumed master mind ing for Jack Dempsey.
 This may take a lot of money out of circulation, for George Tex as Rickard is awaiting the world to leap aboard the Dempsey band wagon for anc-her mihion-dollar whack at the common people.
 Dempsey Works Out
 Leo r. Flynn does not master mind for small change. Therefore, when MT. Flynn was discovered warming up his cerebal tissues at Sdllman's gymnasium. while MT Dempsey limbered up the old hol- low shell, the scouts were thrown into a state of high excitement.
 Mr. Flynn would vouchsafe no explanation to the gentlemen of the press. He will be in there with Dempsey again fer the next ten days, perhaps.
 Jack Talks Little
 Dempsey melted off some more poundage by working five rounds on ,he bag. Jack claims that hC is not seriously considering any vaudeville or picture engagements and that he may remain in New York for a month. If at the enc of that time he applies to the olt Master Mind for advice, he prob ably will be told to get ready.
 MT Flynn got $75,00O for master minding at Chicago last year. Hi fee for telling Dempsey to remaii in retirement will be nothing lik' that.
