Preface to the Second Edition
This index was begun as a card index to the debaters'manuals in the Reference Department of this Library. Theincreasing number of such manuals and the frequent requestsfor material on debates made it seem desirable to combine inone list the indexes to all the manuals, thus bringing referencesto all the material on one subject together and saving the timerequired to consult the index of each book. The card indexhas been so useful here that it has been printed, in the hopethat it may also be useful elsewhere. Under each subject aregiven the proposition for debate, page references to the manuals,and a note indicating the material to be found there, whetherbriefs, references, specimen debates or synopses of debates.
The "Debates" of this Library, included in the list of booksindexed, is a loose-leaf book containing briefs and referencescopied from various sources or supplementing lists to be foundelsewhere. The Carnegie Library "Reference lists" referredto are less complete manuscript lists compiled in response torequests.
One hundred new references have been added in this edition.Twenty-four of these are on new topics and seventy-sixare additional references on topics included in the first edition.New cross references have also been included when necessary.The new books indexed are Robbins's "High school debatebook," the "Debaters' handbook series" and the new edition ofAskew's "Pros and cons," also the numbers of the "Speaker"and of the "Bulletin" of the University of Wisconsin issuedin the sixteen months since the first edition of this index waspublished.
