Default Help with a photo (Walter Johnson)

Hi all.I hope to get an opinion and maybe some info about a photo I have.The photo has names of the players written on the bottom and the third name from the end identifies the player as "W. Johnson".I've done comparisons with other Walter Johnson photos and it looks like him to me.I was hoping to get some opinions from other members here to see if they agree with me.The bottom photo is a stock Walter Johnson photo to use for comparison.
The name of the team is the "ELECTRICS".I know he played for Washington his whole career but am wondering if this could have been a barnstorming or an exhibition type of team.Any help would be appreciated.Thanks.

If you can post a good scan of the guy 3rd from the right we'll probably see that the ears don't match - that would settle the issue.

Nope, not him. Didn't even need to look at his ears.

Not a close call in my view. And...Hank's definitive "No" carries a lot of weight since he has probably seen more pictures of Walter than anybody.
