(UPH - Hundreds of angry racing fans rioted at Roosevelt Raceway Friday night when only two horses finished the sixth race because of a massive pile-up on the backstretch.

Rioters kicked in the lights on the tote board, hurled rocks through windows in the club house section, set fire to grand stand seats, ripped down the enclosure around the winner's circle and set fire to a sulky at the finish line. Robet A. Glasser, chairman of the New York State Harness Commission, said tracks should be given the power to automa tically declare "no contest" races in which half the field fails to finish. Glasser's suggestion came after he was a witness to a riot at Roosevelt Raceway Friday night, touched off after six of the eight horses in the sixth race the first race in the lucrative twin double that enabled a Watcrbury, Conn., bartender to win $79,660 Wednesday night were involved in a pileup on the backstretch.
