Authorities said between 100 and 150 bookmakers are operating locally, some handling $750,000 in nets over the phone each week, often working out of their homes. Bookies can clear $30,000 a week in profit, they say. The arrest of a Mounds View man on Oct 13 on a charge of illegally engaging in sports bookmaking marked the first use of a new version of the state law that prohibits bookmaking.

For six months, detectives said, the man handled the wagers of about 25 bettors who bet an average of more than $16,000 apiece on several sports. "That's nickel, dime stuff," said LI Jim Decowski, Hennepin County's gambling specialist. "We've had raids where we found that a million (dollars) was wagered In one week." Decowski recently coordinated an investigation that led to the arrest last week of four suburban men for allegedly operating a football pool that the department estimates could have generated nearly $4 million in bets during the football season. WeTS able law," Decowski said. "Now if you start seeing people going to jail for bookmaking, there'd be a tremendous decrease in upstart bookmakers." The new, more easily enforced law also has inspired other agencies to become more systematic in going after illegal sports gambling.

"Now that we have a law we can be forceful about, we're going to see if we can coordinate our efforts," said Jack Erskine, superintendent of the state's Bureau of Criminal Apprehension. Ramsey County Sheriff Charles Zacharias, who also has begun to concentrate on illegal gambling, said he has done so because "We've got a Betting continued on page 12A economy remains a world leader in technology and its commercial application.

A 600-foot ship ran aground outside the Duluth-Superior harbor Monday night as Duluth was being battered by high winds and heavy seas.

U.S. Coast Guard officials reported that the grain-hauler Socrates, a Ll-berian-registered oceangoing freighter with a crew of 24, grounded itself in 8 to 16 feet of water at 7:35 p.m. near the harbor entrance.

and Soviet officials were reported Monday night to have agreed in principle that President Reagan and Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev should hold a second summit meeting after their two days of talks that start today. A ranking White House official said Reagan will conclude the Geneva conference with an invitation to the Soviet leader to visit the United States "to see the American people and learn what makes us tick." Reagan was said to be leaning toward an invitation for a meeting In 1987 in Washington, though State Department officials were known to be urging him to ask for a meeting next year. Gorbachev arrived yesterday and said the "first and foremost" issue in his meetings with Reagan Is halting the arms race "and its extension to new spheres." The allusion was evidently to the U.S. space-based missile defense program, which the Soviets would like to stop. Officials stressed that an agreement to hold a follow-up summit meeting was contingent on final approval of the two leaders.

Such an agreement would be a commitment to continuing high-level diplomacy and would reassure the United States' major Western European allies, who have been pressing for regular summit meetings.

The ship, found a year ago buried under 10 feet of ocean floor, is said to be the only confirmed pirate ship found by salvagers. It was positively identified last month. At the office of one of his local investors and in the glare of TV lights, Clifford strode into a small conference room yesterday and emptied the contents of a well-worn canvas gym bag. He spread a pile of gold and silver coins from the 1700s in front of him on a table and proclaimed them priceless. "The bottom (of the ocean near the wreck) is literally covered with treasures," Clifford said.

Now, the Soviets are saying that the conference must be seen more "in overall terms" and as part of a process.

They said McDonnell Douglas plans to purify enough erythropoietin on the next space shuttle flight "to begin the animal and clinical (human) test program necessary to gain U.S.

McDonnell Douglas had kept the identity of the drug secret since it established its space drug purification project in 1977 and had worked on the drug during several missions. It confirmed the identity last night after Aviation Week magazine, a trade publication, reported that it was erythropoietin and that "a commercial space market worth several hundred million dollars is foreseen for the drug Space drug continued on page 11A By Gordon Slovut Staff Writer The mystery drug produced on space shuttle flights was identified Monday as a hormone that can accelerate the production of red blood cells in the body. It has the potential of helping millions of people who suffer from anemia. The drug is erythropoietin, a substance normally produced in the kidneys. Synthetic erythropoietin would be used to treat people with red-blood-cell deficiencies, much in the way people with diabetes are treated with insulin.
