 EXTENSION of abstract DEADLINE
 CONFERENCE ON FUNCTIONAL APPROACHES TO GRAMMAR
 LSA Institute Summer 1995
 University of New Mexico
 Albuquerque, NM

In response to a number of inquiries and suggestions, we would like to
announce an extension of the deadline for Abstracts: Abstracts for
30 minute time slots (paper + discussion) will be received for consideration
until November 1, 1994. Notification of acceptance will be sent out on or
about December 15, 1994.

Please send a one page abstract, along with address information, to:
 tomlinoregon.uoregon.edu or
 R. Tomlin
 Dept of Linguistics
 University of Oregon
 Eugene, OR 97403
 USA

If you have already sent an abstract, you should have been notifed of its
receipt. If you have not been so notified, please contact me at one of the
above addresses. If you e-mail an abstract, please look for confirmation
of receipt, if one does not arrive within two days, please re-submit the
abstract.

Please note that this conference follows a related one on cognitive
linguistics, sponsored by the ICLA (International Cognitive Linguistics
Association), July 16-21, 1995. We expect that many will want to avail
themselves of the unique opportunity to update their knowledge of what is going
on in these closely related approaches to the study of language by attending
both conferences; and such mutual participation can be expected to enhance the
value of both events.

Finally, I have appended to this message an updated version of the original
conference announcement from last year.

On behalf of the organizing committee...

--Russ Tomlin
