According to The Boston Globe, for the Fall River Marksmen’s National Challenge Cup (U.S. Open Cup) game against Bethlehem Steel, owner Sam Mark … “has chartered two steamers, SS Priscilla and Chester W. Chapin, and there is no room left on either, so many of the Fall River fans will have to make other arrangements. It is expected that between three and four thousand fans from the Massachusetts city will be in Dexter Field Sunday to root for their favorites.”
