  • Bill Kentling Interview.Wps
    Bill Kentling spent the 1980’s on the frontlines of the indoor soccer phenomenon in the United States. For a brief period in the early 1980’s, club such as the Cleveland Force, Kansas City Comets and St. Louis Steamers of the Major Indoor Soccer League (MISL) drew larger crowds than NBA and NHL franchises in those cities. After the demise of the outdoor North American Soccer League (NASL) in 1984, the United States was without a sanctioned Division I professional league for more than a decade. Although purists were horrified by the sport’s hockey-style rules and promoters’ emphasis on non-stop entertainment over soccer, there was a time when some believed the future of American soccer would be indoors. Meanwhile, Kentling was in Kansas managing the MISL’s Wichita Wings franchise, a small-market success story he compares to the NFL’s Green Bay Packers. The Wings and their “Orange Army” of fans packed the 9,600-seat Kansas Coliseum for MISL games during the sport’s glory years in the early 1980’s. In 1986, Kentling was drafted into service as the MISL’s third Commissioner and he presided over one of the most challenging periods for the league and its slow decline from national prominence as investors became exhausted after nearly a decade of red ink. Among the challenges Kentling faced were labor discord with the MISL Players Association, the mid-season collapse of a high profile expansion franchise in Long Island, New York in 1987, and the contraction of the league in the summer of 1988.

COWAN 2015 Immigrants, Nativists, and the Making of Chicago, 1835-1893 Mimi Cowan Advisor, Dr. Kevin Kenny Between 1835 and 1893, the majority of immigrants who settled in Chicago were of Irish or German birth. Even though the city’s economic leaders’ plans to transform Chicago into a center of international trade required the labor of these immigrants, Irish and German Chicagoans were still the targets of nativism. They were not, however, merely objects of nativism; instead, they were able to challenge nativist-inspired policies and assumptions about the inability of immigrants to become loyal Americans. They demonstrated their allegiance to the U. S. through service in independent ethnic militias and challenged policies that they felt unfairly targeted them, such as temperance laws in the 1850s, militia laws in the 1870s, and educational policy in the 1880s. But after 1865, as Chicago industrialized, labor conflict grew. As a result, the success of immigrants’ efforts to demonstrate their allegiance or combat nativist-inspired policies relied on their willingness to distance themselves from radicalism.
