(AP) They know they can't exactly turn "the world's largest cocktail party" into a milk-and-cookies afternoon, but the universities of Florida and Georgia, city officials and Gator Bowl officials are laying plans now to cut down the off-the-field action in the next annual meeting of the football arch-rivals. "We're concerned that the focus of the game has gotten away from football to the theme of the world's largest cocktail party," said Jeremy Foley, associate UF athletic director. Last November, fights broke out between Georgia supporters and police after officers prevented the fans from tearing down the goal posts following the Bulldogs' 24-3 win over then-No.

1 Florida. This year, the city will give a set of goal posts to the winning team. SIX PEOPLE were treated for injuries at a local hospital, four police officers received minor injuries and 65 people were arrested on charges ranging from disorderly conduct to trespassing. Georgia Coach Vince Dooley wrote a letter of apology to Chris Weaver of Orlando, who spends his football season dressed as Albert the Alligator. Several Georgia fans used the 6-foot-8 alligator as a punching bag.

(With Any Purchase) By STEVE SALTZMAN Staff Writer SCRATCH, sniff, paw. Scratch, sniff, paw and Dusty the Drug Dog found the stash at a demonstration Wednesday at the Greenwood Voters League.

Dusty was part of a presentation given by Sheriff Ricky Banks, State Narcotics Officer Eddie Berry and Sgt. Artie Hitchins of the police department concerning drug use and prevention. Sgt. Lester Martin of the police department also gave a presentation about the neighborhood watch and operation identification programs being implemented in wards 4, 5 and 6. The police department and the sheriff's department are experimenting with Dusty, a two-yearold golden retriever, to see if she can be useful in finding drugs in cars and houses, Banks said.

"We do have a drug problem, but it is not any worse than some other counties and not as bad some big counties," Banks said. Banks said marijuana was still the most prevalent drug used in Leflore County, 1 but cocaine was a growing problem and authorities are becoming worried about a new variety of the amphetamine called "crack." Crack poses problems, Banks said, because it is less expensive than cocaine in the powder form and is highly addictive. He said users buy the drug in a solid form for $10 to $25 and smoke it in a water pipe. Berry said the first arrest in Mississippi for crack was in Tchula and that it was probably brought in from Detroit or California. "It's probably already in Greenwood, but we haven't got anyone yet," Banks said.

THE POLICE DEPARTMENT received matching funds from a Community Development Block Grant for approximately $39,000 to get the residents in high-crime neighborhoods towards crime prevention, Martin said. He said he will be going door-todoor organizing block meetings to get the communities involved. The program, at its most basic level, Martin said, consists of getting people in the neighborhoods to contact the police department when they notice suspicious behavior. Operation Identification is getting people to engrave their social security number on all of their valuable possessions. Because the numbers are universal, Martin said, they can easily be traced.

The program will also distribute stickers for people to put on their front doors that say they have engraved their possessions. Martin said the stickers have been proven to be a strong deterrent for thieves because it's nearly impossible to erase engravings. Dooley said after last year's problems. Since then, representatives have met several times to discuss tightening up security and cutting down on alcohol consumption.
