1. iscll, IsCLL6--New Submission Deadline
2. Jordan Lachler, First High Desert Student Conference in Linguistics

 Many IsCLL6 participants have expressed their concern over the fact
that both IACL-7/NACCL-10 and IsCLL6 have chosen 12/31/1997 as deadline for
abstracts. IsCLL6 Organizing Committee has thus decided to extend the
submission deadline from December 31, 1997 to Jannary 20, 1998.


Sincerely yours,
Secretary of Organizing Committee
