ROCKY'S NOT ALONE

Salt Lake City Mayor Rocky Anderson is featured in the latest edition of
Rolling Stone magazine for his banishment of the DARE program.

It noted Anderson was the latest city leader to halt the federally
subsidized program in which police officers go into schools with an
anti-drug message. Cities that scrapped DARE on the grounds it doesn't work
include Minneapolis, Austin, Seattle and Omaha, some of which are run by
conservative, Republican mayors.

DARE could become a hot issue in Utah in the next few years since Salt Lake
County Mayor-elect Nancy Workman made her support of DARE and her
disagreement with Anderson a major campaign issue.
