Guy Chamberlin Makes Debut Here After Compiling Excellent Record

NEW FRANKFORD COACH PLAYS GREAT GAME AND HAS PILOTED FIVE CLUBS TO NATIONAL LEAGUE CHAMPIONSHIPS

Guy Chamberlin, the new coach of the Yellow Jackets, will make his bow to Frankford sports-lovers today after compiling the greatest record ever hung together by a coach in the National League of Professional Football Clubs.

Chamberlin has coached National League teams during five previous seasons ands each year he piloted his aggregation of gridiron workers to the top of the league standings and the recognized professional football championship of the United States.

For four years the Canton Bulldogs were subject to Chamberlin. The first year he achieved the ambition of all Cantonese -- or whatever they call the residents of Canton -- by breaking the grip of the arch-rival, Akron, on the pre-grid title. Canton vanquished the Tigers in the final game of the season and Chamberlin and Canton boasted its first championship eleven.

For three more years the coach continued his championship reign at Canton. Last year he changed his affiliations [sic] to the Cleveland Panthers. All Chamberlin did in 1924 was to pilot the baby member of the league to the top and continue in Cleveland the pace he set at Canton.

Not only has the new Frankford mentor proven his ability as a coach and director, but he is also recognized as one of the greatest ends who ever broke into the league. Frankford fans who witnessed his playing here against the Yellow Jackets the past two years certainly will agree with that statement.

Chamberlin is six feet, three inches tall and weighs one hundred and ninety-three pounds.

Coach Chamberlin at Helm Again This Year

Guy Chamberlin today enters his second season as Coach of the Frankford Yellow Jackets. Last season he was brought from Cleveland where he piloted the Cleveland Panthers to the top of the National League, his fifth straight National championship. The 1925 season for Frankford started with a Bang!  and everything pointed towards Chamberlin repeating with Frankford at the top., until mid-season, when injuries forced him from the game and his championship hopes were dashed.

When the F.A.A. Directors notified him the past January that his services would be retained for the 1926 season, Guy immediately began a tour of the country, lining up material for the 1926 addition of the Frankford Yellow Jackets. He has resided in Frankford ever since he came here last season, and has been active in the affairs of the local Legion Post, being in the pitching staff of the Post baseball team. The last few weeks he has worked with a trucking company in order that he would be in pink of condition when the season opens today.

The Directors this year have placed Guy in complete charge of the team and surrounded by the greatest aggregation of stars that ever donned the Frankford colors, he should "Bring home the Bacon."
