In the U.S. he played for a string of clubs
including Tacony, Brooklyn Field Club, Bethlehem Steel, where in 1915 he
scored 54 goals in 33 games, Babcock and Wilcox of Bayonne, New Jersey
and Robins Dry Dock. In 1925 he played for the U.S. against Canada twice
and his American Soccer League career took him to J&P Coats, New York
Giants, Indiana Flooring and New York Nationals, where he was coaching at
the time of the 1930 World Cup. He won U.S. Open Cup winners medals with
Brooklyn Field Club in 1914, Bethlehem Steel in 1915 and 1919 and New
York Nationals in 1928. He also coached the Nationals and Newark. However,
Millar's greatest claim to fame is as the successful coach of the U.S.
World Cup team of 1930, a team that took the world by surprise and
reached the semi-final.
