The New York Yankees may appoint Wilbert Robinson to manage in 1920 as Mil ler Huggins failure to secure a top club triggers a possible shift. Donovan's injuries contrasted with Huggins speed problems and prospects of caping up with more runners suggest a shake up. Fewster and Baker may depart while Fewster stands as one of the few fleet players.
