Sam Mark took over the failing Fall River United at the end of the 1921-22 season and relaunched the club as the Fall River F.C. this season. Also, following the 1921-22 season, the Philadelphia F.C. club was transferred "back" to Bethlehem as the reorganized Bethlehem Steel F.C. and a new team was organized in Philadelphia to take its place.[2]
