Linguistic Association of the Southwest
October 3-5, 1997
University of California-Los Angeles
Invited Speakers: Ofelia Zepeda (University of Arizona)

Proposals for papers in any area of linguistics will be
considered. For the 1997 meeting in Los Angeles, submissions
regarding minority languages are particular-ly encouraged. We
also especially solicit graduate student papers, which may be
submitted following the meeting for consideration for the Helmut
Esau Prize, a $250 cash award made annually by LASSO.
Presentation time for papers will be limited to twenty minutes
plus ten minutes for discussion.
THE DEADLINE FOR RECEIPT OF ABSTRACTS IS JUNE 15, 1997;
notification of acceptance of papers will be sent out by August
1, 1997. Only one abstract as single author and a second as co-author
will be accepted from any individual.
Abstracts must be no longer than one page (c. 250 words) and
should summarize the main points of the paper and explain
relevant aspects of the data, method-ology, and argumentation
employed. Abstracts of accepted papers will be published exactly
as received in a booklet for distribution at the meeting. At the
beginning of your abstract place the paper title, and at the end
of the abstract (or on a separate page) repeat the title along
with your name, affiliation, mailing address, telephone number,
and e-mail address.
It is preferred that abstracts be submitted by e-mail to:
rking at mail.utexas.edu
In the absence of e-mail, or if your abstract contains any
special symbols, send one hard copy of the abstract (preferably
with a diskette, labeled for operating system and word processing
program) to:
