Subject:        NDCA LINCOLN-DOUGLAS TASK FORCE

The board of the National Debate Coaches Association met in Dallas on
Saturday.  Among other business, the board unanimously approved the
establishment of a Task Force on Lincoln-Douglas, to be headed by Glenda
Ferguson.

This task force is charged with:

1)  Surveying the opinions of the NDCA membership in particular and the
community at large on desirable reforms in Lincoln-Douglas practice, with
particular focus on 1) alternative speech times/orders and 2) disclosure of
decisions.

2)  Making recommendations for reform, if warranted.

3)  Developing a packet of excellent Lincoln-Douglas pedagogical materials.

This task force needs members.  Contact Ms. Ferguson at
