Please do not e-mail me for applications, I will be out of Lexington so
much of the time
between now and tournament time, it is likely to get lost in the shuffle.
It is better to leave
a message with Linda, rather than on my office or home answering machine.

their application before
April 1.
ANNOUNCEMENT #4
AT-LARGE QUALIFICATION ENTRY INFORMATION
If there are fewer than seventy fully-qualified enteries in an event,
additional enteries will be
admitted into the Tournament on space-available basis. Eligible at-large
applications must meet
the following minimum criteria and the Tournament Director will accept the
most qualified
applicants to fill the field:
The at-large applicant(s) must have earned a 60% or greater
win-loss percentage at
all tournaments attended during the 1997-98 debate season.
The at-large applicant(s) must earn the TOC Advisory Committee's

FINAL ANNOUNCEMENT
We still have several TOC qualifying tournments that have not certified the
qualifying results.
Linda has been instructed to return TOC enteries that are using
non-certified tournaments for
their bids. We have made numerous appeals, but still don't have all the
results.
Sincerely,
J.W. Patterson
TOC Director
