The dog didn't like it, Neither did the crowd. About 20 spectators tackled the man, and the police had to rescue him. What happened was this: The race was the last of the evening at Romford Stadium. Around the final bend fled the electric rabbit, four dogs in hot pursuit, Suddenly, a man standing be- hind the rails jumped the fence and made a flying tackle at the leading dog, Dunmoe Alva. He missed. Instead, he got his arms around the favored Bal- linclea Betty. Describing the incident to re- OF HOUNDS porters, onlooker John Harris said: "They (the dog and the man) rolled over and over as though wrestling. The other dogs stopped to see what was hap- pening." The stewards declared the race void. Then things really did happen. Pursued by spectators, the tackler fried to get away by scaling a six-foot fence but members of the crowd tackled him and brought him down. He was severely roughed up before the cops rescued him. "Apparently he'd put every penny he had -- $28 on Victory Jewel," said one of the policemen. At the time of the tackle, Victory Jewel was run- ning fourth. The man, still unidentified, was taken to a police station. about the date." Patterson was angry at Roy Cohn, general counsel for Feat- ure Sports, Inc. '"'Before the last fight I asked Julius November, my lawyer, if I could look ai the contract," said Patterson. "Cohn said 'Have him sign the thing. He can't read anyway." Cohn thinks I'm an insolent, dumb backwoods- man." Cohn termed Patterson's charges "ridiculous" and said he had the highest regard for the heavyweight fighter.
