Judge Streit Calls For Order In Court On Intercollegiate Athletics
Judge Lau Streit, 53, New York General Sessions judge, becomes the center of national publicity after his sharp critique of intercollegiate athletics. He remains calm and collected amid interview requests, golf and sports interests, and a career that included a decade in the state legislature and Roosevelt's era cabinet. He warns that until the public acts, the issues of commercialism in college sports persist, but he will let the people decide.
