Subject:  Q: Plural attributives, references

By 'plural attributives' I mean things like _promotions criteria_
where the modifying noun in a noun + noun sequence has plural form.

I have a copy of an article by Jean Dierickx called 'Why are plural
attributives becoming more frequent?', but I can't find the
bibliographic reference for it.  I THINK it appeared in a Festschrift
or other collection of papers ca. 1970.  Does anyone have the full
reference?

Similarly, I think that Knud Soerensen once wrote on the same topic,
but I have been unable to trace the article through LLBA.  Does
anyone have a reference for that one?

Thanks in advance.

Subject:  Rumanian

A former student of linguistics at Monash University, Australia, I have just
commenced private studies on the Rumanian language. I have no linguistic
material at hand and would appreciate any linguistic material (esp. syntax,
morphology, phonetics, dialectology) either in German, English or Esperanto
(Dutch or French is also acceptable) on the Rumanian language. I am willing
to pay for some tapes (recordings) of good quality of conversational
Rumanian. Please send all information to haengcho at hotmail.com or
hchalls at aol.com.
