THE WOLVERINES never trailed in their triumph against N ..the Gophers, mainly because Wayne had the uncanny ability to pitch himself out of trouble. Minnesota left 16 men on base during the contest. They stranded two men in four different innings and left the bases loaded in the fifth and sixth.

"There's definitely more people in- volved but I don't anticipate any fur- ther arrests," said State Police Lt. James Tuttle. TUTTLE SAID the arrests were made Friday night and culminated, a six-month investigation by Michigan law enforcement agencies and the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. "We just had a source of information that indicated that these people in Canada had a large amount of cocaine," Tuttle said. He described the purchase of six and a half pounds of un- cut cocaine as "the largest ever in Michigan." Tuttle said he did not know if any of the suspects had sold drugs in Michigan before but that they were heavily in- volved in drug dealing in the south- western area of the Canadian province of Ontario. THE SUSPECTS, two from Florida, two from Kitchener, Ontario, and two from London, Ontario, are being held on $5 million bond. Tuttle said five are Canadian citizens. The six face charges of conspiracy to deliver and delivery of the cocaine. Both charges carry mandatory life sen- tences upon conviction. The only U.S. citizen arrested was Lorraine Kozlowski, 29, of Lake Worth, Fla. The other suspects were Douglas Reidt, 28, and Brent Harding, 31 of Kit- chener, Ontario; David Desorcy, 37, of West Palm Beach, Fla.; Arthur Small, 38 and Alexander Harrington, 30, of London, Ontario. Tuttle said Harding had been previously convicted of smuggling hashish in the British colony of Gibraltar, and in Mexico City for smuggling cocaine.
