Academic Competition Newsletter 
Vol. VI issue
2
editors: Eric Owens and Gaius Stern 
Oct.
1999


 Welcome to the second issue of the sixth year of
the Academic Competition Newsletter. The primary
mission of the newsletter is to spread information about
QB to new players and schools. To get a free
subscription (or drop it), just
write the editors and ask
to be (un)subscribed. When posting questions or
gripes, however, please write only to the editors and not
to the entire subscription list.
 The newsletter
will endeavor to report fully on all QB events for
teams West of the Mississippi or of interest to those
teams, continuing the earlier policy to extend coverage
towards the Midwest. As always, subscribers are
encouraged
to write the newsletter editors with columns,
tournament invitations, opinions, corrections, and
especially tournament results.

 HIGH SCHOOL TOURNAMENTS LIST

This list is
provided as a guide to those tournament directors who are
trying to decide dates for their tournaments, so that
they might be able to schedule around dates that
schools who would be likely to attend their tournament
have already scheduled their high school tournaments
for. These are the tournaments that the editors
are
aware of at this time; please feel free to notify
either Eric or Gaius of other events.
