Youth-Leg delegotes earn high honors The 1982 Youth-Legislature program started long before the trip to Tallahas- see. It started with research for the bills, and mock debate sessions held In the Choctaw library after school on some Wednesdays. Once In Tallahassee the delegotes went to the Hilton, then on to a church across the street, where all the introduc- tory programs were held. The next day everyone was up bright and early for a joint session In the new capitol building. Then the House and Senate went to their respective chambers to begin debate on bills brought by the delegates from around the state. While the delegates were de- bating. those in the judicial program met In the Supreme Court building to argue cases brought before them. Saturday, after the morning debates, there was a joint session to present awards and reveal the officers for the 1983 Youth-Leg. program.
