For anyone stuck with the draft 3 schema. There is a "Type" keyword that is equivalent to the "anyOf" in draft 4:

So you can use

{
    "fooBar" : {
        "type" : "array",
        "items" : {
            "type" : [{
                    "type" : "object",
                    "properties" : {
                        "foo" : {                           
                            "type" : "string"
                        }
                    }
                }, {
                    "type" : "object",
                    "properties" : {
                        "bar" : {
                            "type" : "string"
                        }
                    }
                }
            ]
        }
    }
