I don't think the Gambinos were going to allow 70,000
To be just forgotten about.
I'm sure at some point they collected that 70,000
From Cleveland.
It had to.have been before Scalish died in May 1976.
I couldn't see them saying "we will come for it after Cleveland gets their house in order "
Speaking of Scalish he wasnt really one to take on chances
After Appalachian.
Tony Panzarella tried to collect a tax from all the bookmaking and etc and Scalish said no.
The policy games he left alone.
He was rich from Vegas and the Teamsters yet could have
Been more wealthy .
