*****ANNOUNCEMENT AND CALL FOR MANUSCRIPTS*****

The Linguistic Association Of The Southwest (LASSO) announces a
change in the editorship of its journal, the _Southwest Journal
of Linguistics_.  Effective with Volume 16 (1997), the journal
will be housed at Texas A&M University-Commerce, where the new
editor, Jon Jonz, is Professor of English and Linguistics.

The _Southwest Journal of Linguistics_ is also renewing its call
for manuscripts.  Each 220-page volume of the _Southwest Journal
of Linguistics_ is published in two numbers, one in June and one
in December.  The journal publishes papers across a broad range
of topics in linguistics, though essays and research papers
dealing with the languages of the southwestern United States and
northern Mexico are especially encouraged.

The journal also publishes scholarly reviews of the literature,
book reviews, and occasional commentary on topics of concern to
the journal's readership.

_Instructions for Contributors_

Manuscripts are to be prepared according to the advice contained
in the _Language_ style sheet, which is published annually in
the December LSA Bulletin.  In addition, contributors should
submit _three_ printed or photocopied copies of the manuscript.
After a manuscript has been accepted for publication its
author(s) will be asked to provide the revised manuscript in
electronic form either on diskette or via the internet.
Submissions must be accompanied by an abstract in English of
between 100 and 150 words.  Manuscripts should be prepared using
Word for Windows or another common word processing program for
PC or Mac.  Contributions may be submitted in either English or
Spanish.  Contact the editor for guidance in using special
symbols.
