...scoring titles is testament enough. If team success is the crucial factor, then Jordan's five championships in seven years--thanks to his 39 points in Game 6 on Friday night--trumps everyone who wasn't a Celtic or a Yankee. Jordan's only competition, really, is Ruth. Bobby Mattick, the 86-year-old scout for the Toronto Blue Jays, says, "Bill Essick, who signed Joe DiMaggio, once told me that nobody was better than Ruth. Frankly, I have an easier time imagining Jordan playing in the majors than I do Ruth running up and down the floor...

...most states, judges can sentence a convicted robber, say, to between one and 20 years; the actual time the felon serves would depend on prison and parole authorities' judgment of his progress toward rehabilitation. That, says Illinois Criminologist Hans Mattick, "made drama schools out of prisons and actors out of prisoners." Under the Illinois plan, the judge will assign a specifically legislated term-two, three or four years for a robbery felony, depending on circumstances. The convict's sentence can be reduced only by accumulation of "good time"-a day off for each day of trouble-free prison...
...have not heard an intellectually respectable defense of criminal rehabilitation James Q. Wilson says flatly. According to Criminologist Hans Mattick, "The prisons have become largely drama schools which force people to act as if they were rehabilitated along stereotyped conventions." Concludes Columbia Sociologist Robert Martinson after studying hundreds of programs for 20 years: "The prison which makes every effort at rehabilitation succeeds no better than the prison which leaves its inmates to rot." Succeeds, that is, in reducing the huge number of repeat offenders (70% of inmates). Improved behavior inside the walls turns out to be no indication of behavior...
...defensive living and improved police techniques deal only with one end of the criminal-justice system. Police have long been able "to produce more arrests than the courts and prisons could dispose of rationally and efficiently," says Criminologist Hans Mattick of the University of Illinois in Chicago. For reasons of both deterrence and fairness, "speedy law enforcement is most important," says Phoenix Lawyer John Frank. "The Administration could do a hell of a lot more in that area." Funds are needed for more judges, expanded courtroom facilities and better administrative techniques. Furthermore, penologists agree that the entire prison system needs...
