New York, Aug. 22 (U.R) A husky, spindle-legged figure with greying hair and a laconic Mary land farmer face each other briefly in Yankee stadium to morrow. And the memories they revive may draw the biggest crowd In baseball history. It's Babe Ruth, the all-time Yankee clipper, against Walter Johnson, the "big train" of Washington fame, renewing a rivalry that ended 15 years ago when Barney stepped out of the game. Washington meets the Yankees in a doubleheader for army and navy relief- There will be field events for players of both teams and a band concert. But this is not the attraction that Is ex pected to draw a crowd of 85,000 persons and shatter the all-time attendance record of 84.041 which the Yankees and the Red Sox set four years ago. Barney and Babe two of baseball's immortals are the customer magnet as they step out of the game's hall of fame and for one brief moment flip the pages of sports history back to the turbulent twenties and the game's golden era. Johnson, generally recognized as the game's greatest pitcher, will take the mound once again in his old Senator uniform to serve them up aoainst the Babe; in a special exhibition. Ruth, whose booming bat wrote a slugging saga during a 22-year career in the majors, left the Yankees in 1934. Dur ing that time he bludgeoned a total of 714 home rups 60 of them during the 1927 season for a record that still stands.
