The University Club Building, in the heart of downtown Salt Lake City, is conveniently located just minutes from all the services in the downtown While controversey on the hill has waned to a murmur, this is a good opportunity to examine surprises met by incoming session. legislators when they arrived for the y By and away, the largest problem faced by all rookies was that the most critical' and important legislation had been prepared and studied in the interim period between legislative sessions prior to their appearance on the scene. They lacked factual knowledge of not only the problems but the solutions proposed to resolve them. Battle lines and priorities were already drawn by the generals before the new recruits arrived. (Recruits are, of course, expected to fight or perform the duties to which they are assigned without asking questions.) The problem is that, to a person, new legislators did not perceive their function as that of new recruits. They were elected to represent folks in their districts and that is what they have attempted to do. Most neophyte legislators therefore busied themselves with the task of understanding the system and the rules which they must play. But by the time many of them had mastered the rules, they learned the period for introducing new matters had closed. Their cards had been dealt them by the system, and they were forced to play without the benefit of a draw. Many freshmen commented they felt they had been hip checked out of a roller derby. Arriving with what they felt was a decent understanding of the written rules and command of articulate debate, still others soon discovered they had yet to learn the unwritten rules of the legislature. Most commonly, freshmen spoke out on vital issues to other more seasoned folks before first learning to whom they were speaking or where that person stood. The few savvy pro legislators who discovered new opponents have had little problem in neutralizing them. Evidence could be found in a review of matters introduced by freshmen which were soon defeated or tabled in committee. And some new legislators arrived with just a few skills and little or no knowledge of the system. They, like many veterans with similar qualifications, are still in the same boat. The difference is that the more experienced sit near the rear of their respective chambers where the more important decisions sometimes appear to be made. This, of course, does not mean they take an active part in arriving at decisions, only that they are in a position to appear to. Still some arrived well armed with all the skills and understanding of the system. Glory will be theirs as soon as they become better acquainted with the lobby crowd. My conclusion: the ability of a freshman legislator to participate effectively is limited by his naivete. Unfortunately, this is his destiny because of the interim study system which the legislature is required to use. University Club Building area.
