...major legislative issues they will face. The course's founder, Mark Talisman, 32, for ten years an assistant to Ohio Congressman Charles A. Vanik, spent one nonstop 4½-hr. class session on such not-so-trivial basics as where to turn in a proposed bill (in the "hopper" at the side of the Speaker's platform), who will assign it to a committee (the parliamentarian), who controls the parliamentarian (the Speaker) and what to do if both the parliamentarian and the Speaker refuse to help get it to the committee where it will have the best chance...
