First time ever...
 
Harry,

I had no idea U of Kansas had a Rugby Team in the last 60's. It would be
interesting to see what their record was during that time.

Never been to a rugby game before. Pretty interesting game what with
all the smashing, tackling, kicking, chucking the ball and gymnastics.

Had a good time.



Rugby was my college sport. I tried out for football but after one day of
practice, decided my life would be longer if I did something else.
Rugby was rough, but there was no deliberate rough stuff back when I
played. If a ref saw you trying to hurt another player, you were through
for the season. Probably different today.

I keep waiting for someone to have done something, been somewhere, or know

JohnH,

During the 60's there was only 2 Rugby teams between the Mississippi and the
Rockies'. The teams left a lot to be desired. "Those that recall the
encounter suggest that the quality of play left much to be desired."

I am sure it would be easy to check with the team to see if they know a
Harry Krause, but my guess is Harry asked them not to release any
information concerning his time as the star performer for the Rugby Team.

JohnH,
If we don't say anything, Harry will probably accept credit for doing just
that. Don't tell anyone else, but the real person who introduced Rugby to
the Midwest was George Bunting.

There is a definite possibility that this was Harry's given name and Harry
changed his name to Harry Krause when he became a professional writer.

Mr. Skip Starbuck October 2nd 05 06:33 PM

Krause,

Your memory of Midwest Rugby is different than the Univ. of Kansas JayHawk
Rugby Club's memory of Midwest Rugby.

from: http://www.jayhawkrugby.com/About.htm

" Rugby did not exist anywhere between the Mississippi River and the
Rocky Mountains until 1964. In the fall of that year, George Bunting
returned to study Law at the University of Kansas after having completed his
undergraduate degree at Dartmouth.
George's first experience with Rugby occurred during his years of
exile on the East Coast and he resolved to introduce the sport to the
Jayhawks. To this end he advertised in the campus newspaper, "The Daily
Kansan", and, in response, over twenty people gathered in a room that he had
reserved in the Memorial Union Building. This was the first meeting of the
Club.

Concurrent with the activities in Lawrence, Gerry Seymore, a British
Expatriate, was assisting in the founding of the Kansas City RFC. So it was,
there being but two teams in the whole region, that the Jayhawks and the
KCRFC assembled in Kansas City for the match that initiated Rugby in the
Heart of America. Those that recall the encounter suggest that the quality
of play left much to be desired.

Ten Years later, Allen Chapman, a Cornwall expatriate, arrived in
Lawrence and formalized the Club's operations. His lofty plans included
constitutional organization, international Rugby tours and, ultimately, a
clubhouse and playing fields.

Since that first season, the Kansas Jayhawks have slowly but surely
matured. The KJRFC has now established for itself a permanent place among
the array of local sports. Furthermore, the KJRFC is proud of the fact that
it had joined an elite group of clubs in the United States to own and
operate its own Rugby fields which we endearingly call Westwick. The
Westwick Rugby & Athletic Complex, a 55 acre sports complex in located south
of Lawrence in the scenic Wakarusa River Valley. We have been proud to host
numerous clubs from across the country, and the world, at Westwick.

The KJRFC fields 4 different sides:


a.. Men's Club
b.. Men's Collegiate
c.. Women's Collegiate
d.. Old Boy's (Greyhawks)

1964

Rugby was founded by George Bunting

1967
. Heart of America Rugby Football Union founded

1976
. Constitution adopted (author - Allen Chapman)
. Organizational, touring and hosting issues become the primary focus
of rugby club's goals

1977

1979
. Scotland/Ireland Tour "

Rugby was a fairly popular sport out in the part of the midwest where I
attended college. It got its start out there near the beginning of the
20th Century, when several colleges and universities considered it as a
replacement for college football, which even in the early 1900s was
suffering from recruiting scandals. In the 1960s, we had intercollegiate
competition and there were also dozens of "rugby clubs" with their own
rivalries. I played hs football, but once I got into rugby, I considered
it a lot more fun than football, at least for the players.

The best rugby road trips were always to Columbia, Missouri, home of
Mizzou, Stephens, and Christian College for Women. By far the most and
best looking women in a five state area.

Harry and the JayHawks.

They have an alumni site for the Rugby Players Alumni. They are looking to

Harry,

Did you read this article. It discussed the idea that Rugby was considered
as an alternative sport to football, but I don't believe it discussed Rugby
as a colligate or intercollegiate sport at U of Kansas, if it did I missed
it.

You are really grasping at straws.

Ahh, I see Smithers has his nose up my butt, as usual. I'm afraid the
well-intentioned KU Rugby Club historian is wrong. In fact, there was a
Rugby Union formed among midwest universities while I was still in high
school in the east.

Here's another interesting article from the same university on the same
subject:

January 28, 1910

The Day They Almost Abolished Football

Twenty seasons after its formal introduction at the University of Kansas,
the game of football had plenty of fans – and plenty of detractors as
well. In the former category were many KU students and alumni, as well as
University Chancellor Frank Strong (although he did, apparently, have some
reservations about the sport). But in the latter zone were J.W. Gleed and
William Allen White, members of the Board of Regents and significant men
in their own rights in early twentieth-century Kansas.

And on this day in KU history, Gleed proposed and White seconded a motion
to abolish football until the rules were changed to eliminate endemic
corruption and promote player safety. Although the motion was defeated,
the Board of Regents agreed that it was “opposed to the game of football
as now conducted, believing it does not tend to clean athletics.” For the
next few months, the future of football at KU hung in the balance, and for
a while, it almost seemed that English Rugby would replace this classic
American college game.

KU’s Athletic Association had organized its first football team in
September 1890. Despite an inauspicious inaugural season that saw the
Jayhawkers lose twice to Baker (though Kansas fans claimed the second game
as a victory because of some questionable officiating), students and the
rest of the University faithful embraced the sport wholeheartedly.

The universities of the sort to which KU aspired to equal – the Ivy League
schools and Michigan for instance – all maintained top-flight football
teams, and so the University of Kansas’ supporters believed their
institution needed to develop a similarly excellent team. As a result,
football came to enjoy an immense popularity at KU. Students, alumni, and
faculty members all rallied their school spirit behind a team that over
its first two full seasons (1891-1892) enjoyed a record of 14-1-1.

These initial successes fostered the expectation that future teams would
fare equally well. When this failed to happen, Kansas boosters sought
other ways to help ensure gridiron victories. KU began recruiting paid
athletes and the team allowed players who were not passing their classes
(or were not enrolled students at all) to participate in the weekly games.

By 1895, the demise of the team’s amateurism had bred a number of critics
within the University, including English professor Edwin M. Hopkins who
had served as KU’s football coach for its very successful 1891 and 1892
seasons. Hopkins was not alone in wondering whether football on Mt. Oread
had come to “stand for brutality, for trickery; for paid players, for
profanity, for betting before games and for drinking after them.”

The brutality to which Hopkins alluded was indeed an integral part of the
game as it was played in the late-nineteenth and early-twentieth
centuries. Players wore very little in the way of protective gear, even
spurning helmets. Compounding these problems was the fact that officials
enforced what few safety rules there were rather unevenly. In 1894, for
example, the officials failed to penalize Michigan’s team after one of its
players jumped (with both feet) on a Kansas player who had just scored a
touchdown.

Two years later, a player named Bert Serf from Doane College in Nebraska
was killed while making a touchdown-saving tackle against Kansas in the
final minute of a game in which he had earlier been knocked unconscious.
Serf’s death led the Kansas University Weekly to conclude, “rather than
allow this [sort of] danger to exist it would be better to abolish the
game completely.” When the paper ultimately backed off and asked instead
that the Western Inter-State University Foot Ball Association (to which KU
belonged) “adopt the needed reforms,” it fell in line with the majority of
the game’s critics.

But in 1901, KU Coach John Outland (of the Outland Trophy fame) was caught
using an ineligible player with an assumed name. Criticism of the game
began to mount again and continued to do so for the remainder of the first
decade of the twentieth century. Much of the criticism was well deserved.
After a 1903 Kansas-Nebraska game, both sides charged the other with using
ineligible players and in consequence suspended all future athletic
contests between the schools. The following year, KU Chancellor Frank
Strong had to fire Coach Harold S. Weeks for carrying on a sexual
relationship with a freshman girl.

By the end of the autumn of 1905, the University was not alone in its
skepticism about the benefits of football. Following that year’s season –
in which 18 college players from schools around the country died from
injuries sustained in games and more than 150 were hurt seriously – cries
for football’s abolition echoed from every quarter of the nation.

In December 1905, influential representatives of 62 universities met in
New York City to decide the fate of the game. They decided to keep it, but
formed the Intercollegiate Athletic Association (which later became the
National Collegiate Athletic Association) to work with the American
Football Rules Committee to make the game safer. Most of the rules that
were adopted early in 1906 (including the legalization of the forward pass
and the adoption of a neutral zone) were designed to spread out the
players so that there would be fewer pileups.

The change in the rules, coupled with KU’s entry into the Missouri Valley
Conference in 1907, eased the debate over the game’s future at the
University. But this was only temporary. Complaints about football cropped
up again during the 1909 season when it became apparent that certain KU
boosters were paying substitutes to cover the shifts of football players
when their outside jobs interfered with practices or games. (At the time,
it was acceptable for college athletes to be employed, as long as they
actually worked for the money.) In addition, the University had broken
conference rules by spending more than $400 on training tables, which
regularly featured steak dinners aimed at keeping the players healthy.

The proverbial straw that broke the camel’s back came, perhaps, in the
rumor that opposing coaches had begun supplying their players with alcohol
and narcotics both to ease pain and heighten energy. Thus it was that when
the Board of Regents met on January 28, 1910, J.W. Gleed made a motion to
abolish intercollegiate football at the university. Fellow regent William
Allen White joined him in his motion.

This proposal failed to achieve majority support, but the Regents
subsequently invited representatives from the other schools in the
Missouri Valley Conference to a meeting scheduled for April 19 in which
the matter of the “betterment of the present game” might be discussed. If
the talks concluded that that the game was irretrievably corrupt, the
Regents were willing to accept the substitution of English Rugby for
football or mandate football’s outright abolition.

In the weeks that followed, the relative merits of football were debated
at all levels of the University. The Regents remained divided over the
issue even after Gleed published an attack on the game in which he alluded
to players who “get a passing grade without earning it” and maintained
that it was not “possible for men to engage in fierce hand to hand
physical struggle without arousing the smashing and destroying instinct
which comes down to us from our animal ancestors.”

Chancellor Strong, who favored the retention of football, wrote a letter
to the American Football Rules Committee encouraging them to make
substantive changes in the rules to protect collegiate players. KU Coach
Bert Kennedy asserted that the game was no more dangerous than any other
sport at the University and argued that his “football players [were] among
the manliest men in the school.” College Dean Olin Templin, however, hoped
that rugby would replace football and insisted that “from a spectator’s
point of view [English Rugby was] much the better game.”

Even W.H. Stubbs, the governor of Kansas, entered the fray and announced
his opposition to football in April 1910. As might be expected from a
politician, he waffled somewhat. When addressing a crowd of students, he
claimed to “like clean American sports,” and announced that the “old
American game is good enough for me.”

KU students, for their part, almost universally favored retaining football
and soon launched, as the Kansan reported, “an open campaign against
rugby.” Members of the football team, Coach Kennedy, and Dr. James
Naismith, the inventor of basketball and KU’s director of physical
culture, assisted the students in this effort. Naismith gave a resounding
endorsement of the contested sport when he announced at a mass meeting
that he had “always believed that football [was] the typical college
game.” Shortly thereafter, a “football ticket” was organized to run in
student government elections, and all of its candidates won.

Nonetheless, student hopes for the preservation of KU football began to
dwindle in early April when word leaked out that Coach Kennedy would
devote the team’s spring practices to teaching his players the game of
rugby. Within days, many students had grown downright despondent and
started to assume that their cause was lost. The Kansan even published an
article explaining the rules of rugby to the students so that they would
understand what it was they had been opposing.

This “Monday mourning” turned out to be premature. On April 19, 1910, the
schools of the Missouri Valley Conference voted to retain their football
teams. However, the conference did institute some rules it hoped would
de-emphasize the importance of football at its respective universities.
The representatives of the schools banned freshmen from playing on the
varsity football squad, proscribed Thanksgiving Day football games,
mandated that all intercollegiate games be played on college campuses, and
forbade the hiring of any coach who was not a “regular member of the
teaching staff employed by the governing board of the institution, for the
full academic year.”

Although the changes made little difference in the questionable practices
of KU’s football team, the game was never again threatened at the
University. (The following year, for example, a man named Henry Ahrens
“was induced to [play football for] the University by offers of payment in
one fashion or another” and managed to masquerade as a law school student
while he was on the team. When the matter was discovered, the Board of
Regents hinted that it might again “seriously [consider] the abolition of
football,” but ultimately did not.)

Ironically enough, despite all of the emphasis placed on football in the
early years and the cheating that accompanied it, KU never developed into
a football powerhouse in the manner that the flagship universities of the
states immediately to the north and south of Kansas did. And while all
this attention was focused on football, KU quietly developed a basketball
program that would rank among the very best in the nation. If KU could not
say it achieved the greatness of Notre Dame, Michigan, or Alabama in the
sport in which it so badly wanted to excel, its ability to claim
membership in the same basketball fraternity as UCLA, Duke, and Kentucky
proved to be a more than adequate consolation prize.

Anal fixation is a result of maladaption during potty training. Very often it's
due to punishment during potty training.

****************************************
"Anal Fixation"

Definition: Anal Fixation refers to attachment to anal activities and their
manifestations. According to Freud's psychosexual development stages, children
between the ages 18 to 36 months get their most intense gratification through
retaining or expelling feces. The major event at this stage is toilet training,
a process through which children are taught when, where, and how excretion is
deemed appropriate by society. Children at this stage start to notice the
pleasure and displeasure associated with bowel movements. Through toilet
training, they also discover their own ability to control such movements. Along
with it comes the realization that this ability gives them power over their
parents. That is, by exercising control over the retention and expulsion of
feces, a child can choose to either grand or resist parents' wishes.

Maladaptation in this stage manifests as either anal expulsive personality or
anal retentive personality, both of which lead to immature and neurotic behavior
in one's adult life.
*****************************************

Pay close attention to that last paragraph. Try not to think of Harry and Kevin

Keep in mind what I said earlier about anal fixation and it's causes as you read
the following excerpt from the Narcissistic Personality Disorder site I
referenced in an earlier post:

"Psychodynamic theories for the development of NPD revolve around issues of
unmet basic childhood needs. Narcissistic defenses are innately present during
the first eighteen months of an infant's life. The infant is able to experience
being the center of his mother's world and a oneness with the mother develops.
This makes the child feel powerful and omnipotent. The child's world has no
limits. One theory suggests that near the end of the eighteen-month period a
psychological transformation causes the disintegration of the child’s oneness
with the mother to occur. During the separation period if the mother was not
responsive and sensitive to the child's needs during the first eighteen months
then NPD will develop."

Notice the time period and similarities between the two disorders.

Don,
Certainly you know it was Harry who sent this thread down the craphole. I
have never seen anyone who spends more time discussing the rectum and what
he likes to stick up them more than Harry.

I for one agree, this needs to die an unnatural death.

It may be a perversion for skip starbuck, but it is a lifestyle for
kevin, harry and don.

Paul,
I don't think I have read any of Don's anal posts, that seems to be the
forte of Harry and Kevin.

There you go JimH. In the very next post 'Frizzle' alludes that the
previously mentioned perversion is a 'lifestyle' for me and two others.
I can assure you that is not the case.

Trust me Frizzle Boy. I wouldn't stick my nose up JLo's butt...let alone
someone of the same sex. I've got this germ thing......I don't like them.
