Barney introduces the '00' numbered shirt worn by Jim Otto as a symbol which connects the external activities of Otto (his running, catching and tackling) with the body's internal workings.
Bagpipe bellows are traditionally made from an internal organ (the stomach), from which protrude a set of drones and a shanter for playing melodies.
Conflicting facets within Jim Otto played out by Barney, the Scotsmen, AI Davis, and suggest- ed by qualities in Jayne Mansfield and Harry Houdini - constitute a singular installation of peculiar, dynamic elegance, that is as perplexing as it is mesmerising.

Another title might have been "The First Visionary." Bellows, who was editor of the now-defunct Los Angeles Herald Examiner in the years after the tragic strike that irreparably crippled it, is perhaps the only visionary I have ever known in a profession that is sadly in need of them.
But by the time he came to Los Angeles in 1978 and brought many of us with him, Bellows was "training" his people more by inspiring them than by offering actual instruction on how to write, how to report or how to edit.
I sometimes wondered if there wasn't a Zen aspect to the journalism we were all learning, as if Bellows wasn't actually forcing us to dig deeper into our talent sheds for work that would elicit a coherent sentence of praise instead of a mumble.
