It is iraportant to notice that In this study, the In-
formation gained was derived by placing one coneept against
another. It is necessary to realise that those questions
asked were directed to teachers of speech -who will cer-
tainly often be contest judges, but who will not compose the
entire staff of judges to be used in any given tournament.
However, it Is obviously apparent that the Information gained
is important in the total value placed on certain criteria
for debate judgment. In this study, Holra presented a basis
for determining the debate skill areas most used by judges in
determining the winner of a debate. The choice of standards
used by Holm was considered in selecting the skills for the
special questionnaire used in this thesis.
