BARNEY To TOLL
IN EXHIBITION
BY GARRETT WATERS
Times staff Correspondent

CLEVELAND, Aug. 9. - Walter
Johnson, once the peer of all
pitchers and now manager of the
Washington Griffmen, plans tax
ing more than just a turn on the
mound Thursday, when the men
under his direction engage the
Youngstown club of the Central
League in an exhibition game.
Barney" who has not pitched
in an official combat since 1927,
stated today that he figured on
going at least five innings and
more if his strength permitted.
Says Johnson:
May Go Route
'I've got to get in a workout
before the Old-timerS' Bicenten-
nial game Monday in Washing
ton, and the Youngstown exhi-
bitiOn should be just the thing
to get me in shape. l might go
the whole way if it's not too
much for me-"
johnson may have to go the
route at that, if his small pitch
ing staff is overworked in this
Cleveland series.
Only six are left by virtue OF
yesterdays departure of Bobby
Burke, who was sent on option to
the Chattanooga club OF the
Southern Association.
Half Dozen Regulars
The half dozen namely are the
supposed regular starters, Tommy
Thomas, Lloyd Brown, Monte
Weaver and Gen. Alvin Crowder,
and the two rescue men, Fred
Marberry and Dick Coffman.
No doubt Dick Coffman will re-
lieve johnson in the youngstown
game if the veteran manager
needs assistance. AS Johnson put
it this morning, the former St.
Louis hurler needs plenty of work
because of his seemingly lack OF
condition since becoming a Grill
man. Still. johnson may give tne
youngster, Ed Edelin,, chance to
show his wares on the mound.

Two Types of Boys

You notice we say "proteges
and sons" Two types of col
lege students generally go out
for football. The boy whose
way is being paid by someone
interested in a good team for
his alma mater represents the
"protege" as we place him in the
college gridiron picture, and the
'sons" represent the great num-
bers of boys of humble parents
and affluent alike, who want a
college education and who get
it the while they also find time
to play football. The groups
can be identified about fifty
fifty on any football squad-or
could be up to the last season
or two.
But this fall the college ath-
1etic departments will not be
faced with the former bugaboo
which concerned who would be
eligible through dint of scholas-
tic achievements or failures so
much as who will be eligible
through dint of financial back
ing.
An odd thin, about depres-
sion is that it hits the rich and
the poor alike. Men who five
years ago would think nothing
of Sponsoring" the college
education of some poor but
good high school football
player, in order to help dear
old Whatsis University's foot
ball outlook, are now smoking
five cent cigars.

WANTS To Be
AN ACTRESS
IN MOVIES
By HAROLD HEROUX


OLYMPIC SWIMMING STA.
DIUM, Los Angeles, Aug. Still
jubilant in victory, busy signing
autographs and posing for pic
lures, Helene Madison, the Queen
of the Waves. today pondered an
important queStion-whether 10
relinquiSh her amateur status for
gold and a new field of glory.
Not until the Olympic games
are over" the tall, bronze
skinned mermaid from Seattle
remarked, will I make a def
mite decision. / have received
some fIattering offers. but the
advice of my friends is divided
about my acceptance"
Helene captured the womens
world 100-meter free7style swim
ming ch amp onShip yesterday.
noSing out Willemijntie Den
Ouden. the pretty 14-year-old Cul
from Holland. in 106.6, new
Olympic record.
Not to Coach
'If I turn prOfeS S iOnaI."
Helene said, II will not become
swimming coach or per-
former. will seek new fame
in either advertising or motion
pictures.
The only trouble about be-
coming an actress, it seems, is
I'm bit tall, being feet 1917
inches. But directors who have
spoken to me have said that a
tall leading man and a cast of
large people would fix every
thing all right.
But I'm leaving these pros
poets for a professional career
alone, at least until next week.
Meanwhile. I'm going to delight
in being Olympic champiOn-I
waited many years for such a
title, and now l have it.
Gee, it was fun swimming
against girls from foreign ma
tiOns. 1t sure was a thrill"
Helene was loud in her praise
of Willie" Den Ouden. who fin
iShed in 1:07.8. also we'll under
the old Olympic record of Ill
set in 1923 by Albina OsipoWich.
Knew Who TO Beat
Il knew" she said, that the
little Dutch girl was the person
to beat. l had a good OppOr-
tunity to watch her during the
preliminary heats.
"She has a marvellous stroke.
I believe she will develop into
one of the best women swim
mers in history when she be-
comes a little older. Just think,
she's only IA years old now"
And little willie" the idol of
the Netherlands delegation to the
OlympicS, termed Helene great
girl an excellent swimmer and a
perfect champion"
Speaking through an inter
prefer, willie" said: 81 did
the best 1 could. but Helene
was too fast. Maybe later, I'll
get another chance for the
championship"

figure that he famed on two previous
occasions, was an accident. The Gen
eral could have come romping home
from third with a run following his
triple, but not even the gestulating
pleading and entreating Of AL Schact
moved the Army man.
However, it was not necessary for
the General to hurry in a run. His
playmates chalked up a pair of them
for him in the eighth chapter, just
when it looked as If the Macks were
going to take at least one out of the
three games here.
There was one run against us in the
seventh when the MeSsrs. Cronin and
Reynolds walked toward the plate. Joe
cracked a fat double for the General
Reynolds lifted single Mr. Walter
Johnson moved his checkers and Dave
Harris, pinch walloping, slithered out
toward right field, which enabled
Cronin TO race home with the tieing
run during the excitement. Then
along came Kelly. which is Mr.. Moe
Berg. or, as Mr.. Altrock calls him, Mr.
Moeberg. Moe walloped the leather
for two bases, and his Chicago play
mate tore home with what it takes.
And that was that. 1t meant that
the Athletics have not won a ball game
since April %, when they walloped
the Yanks, 8-6. and here it is May. 1t
also means that Uncle Griff's little boys
have nailed the tottering Macks six
consecutive times in eight starts And
If you'll get out the little book it will

last years straw hat. Twice he popped
up to the inf1eld with runs on the bases.
1t took four innings for the American
League champions to ring up a hit on
the General. Bishop and Haas got
them. 1t took three more before the
high-priced cast could hang up two
more, and two more to get another. So
you see that "ive-out-of-f1ve" Crowder
was shooting great ball.
He was hurting the onion just as he
promised when he sat down there in
the Biloxi sunshine last month. Gen
eral said that he was going to get off
to a good start this year, sort of shuttle
the calendar around to beat out his
old habit of starting had and ending
better.
Our old sock was not working con-
sistently against the great Grove. It
smacked around, hitting at times when
it did no good for dear Uncle Clark,
and then exploded as all great socks
do in one inning. The long. lean man
from Lonaconing looked longer than
his inflated pay check when he
stretched his neck to watch the hits
go out into the field.
Now II Uncle gets himself all full of
this pennant fever and angles around
