MacGregor succeeds Bill Carnihan, dashing center halfback, as captain of the team, and takes the job with hopes of enjoying the same brilliant success experience under the reign of Carnihan. The latter captained the Steelmen for four years.

The choice of captain each season rests with the management. MacGregor and Carnihan are among the oldest players in point of service with the team the former starting his fifth season. Prior to coming to Bethlehem, MacGregor starred with the Greenock-Morton team, a first division Scottish team.

The new captain is a brilliant and heady player and is usually at his best under fire. An excellent field general he is also quite popular with the players and as a leader promises to capably take the place of the successful Carnihan.
