  A sample of 197 X-ray emitting clusters of galaxies is considered in the
context of Milgrom's modified Newtonian dynamics (MOND). It is shown that the
gas mass, extrapolated via an assumed $\beta$ model to a fixed radius of 3 Mpc,
is correlated with the gas temperature as predicted by MOND ($M_g \propto
T^2$). The observed temperatures are generally consistent with the inferred
mass of hot gas; no substantial quantity of additional unseen matter is
required in the context of MOND. However, modified dynamics cannot resolve the
strong lensing discrepancy in those clusters where this phenomenon occurs. The
prediction is that additional baryonic matter may be detected in the central
regions of rich clusters.
