SECOND CALL FOR PAPERS

The Linguistic Association of the Southwest (LASSO) XXVIII
To be held in San Antonio, Texas, October 1-3, 1999

(For more information, visit our website at
http://www.tamu-commerce.edu/swjl/lasso.html)

Proposals for papers in any area of linguistics will be considered.
Submissions on the topic of "Language Change and Contact:
Synchronic and Diachronic Perspectives" are particularly encouraged. We
welcome submissions by graduate students, who
may submit papers following the conference for consideration for the
Helmut Esau Prize, a $250 cash award made annually by
LASSO. Presentation time for papers is limited to twenty minutes plus ten
minutes for discussion. The deadline for receipt of
abstracts is June 1, 1999. Those who submit abstracts will be notified as
to whether their papers have or have not been
accepted by July 20, 1999. 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 (maximum 250 words) and should
summarize the main points of the paper and
explain relevant aspects of the data, methodology, and argumentation
employed. Use of special font items (e.g., phonetic
symbols, diacritic marks, branching diagrams, or logical notation) should
be kept to a bare minimum. Abstracts of papers will
be published AS RECEIVED in a booklet for distribution at the meeting. At
the beginning of the abstract write the title of the
paper. At the end of the abstract repeat the title and also list the
author's name (if more than one author, list names in the order
they should appear in the program), academic affiliation, mailing address,
telephone number, and e-mail address. E-mail
submissions are strongly preferred. Abstracts should be e-mailed to: 

Daniel Villa (dvillanmsu.edu) 

Submitters will receive an e-mail reply notifying them that their
abstracts have been received and will be considered. If such
notification has not been received within one week, that means the
e-mailed abstract did not reach its destination and should be
resubmitted. Authors who do not have access to e-mail or whose abstracts
contain special symbols should send one paper
copy of the abstract along with one disk copy (with the disk labeled as to
operating system and word processing program) to:

Daniel Villa, LASSO Vice-President
Dept. of Languages and Linguistics
Box 30001, Dept. 3L
New Mexico State University
Las Cruces, NM 88003
Telephone 505-646-4541

Authors are strongly encouraged to send their completed, polished papers
- or any other work they want to have considered
for publication -- to The Southwest Journal of Linguistics. Presentation
of papers is a privilege of membership in LASSO.
Individuals' 1999 dues must be paid by June 1 in order for their abstracts
to be considered. Annual dues are US$20 (dues for
students, retired persons, or those not employed are reduced to US$10);
checks for dues should be made out to LASSO. To
pay dues or to obtain additional information, contact:
