There was no new baseball news on October 23, 1920. Grantland Rice, in his daily column, suggests a leader for baseball:

More and more reports come in from those who know him well, singing the praises of William H. McCarthy, president of the Pacific Coast League. On the face of the returns, where can organized baseball find a better man to lead it out of the wilderness?

McCarthy was busy cleaning up the PCL in 1920 after that league suffered a scandal similar to what happened in the majors. McCarthy and Commissioner Landis would come into conflict a little over two years later on the subject of the majors drafting minor league players.
