\maketitle 
 
 
 
\begin{abstract} 
The Abstract paragraph should be indented 0.25 inch (1.5 picas)
on both left and right-hand margins.
Use  10~point
type, with a vertical  spacing of 11~points.  {\bf Abstract} must be centered,
bold, and in  point size 12. Two line spaces precede the Abstract. The Abstract 
must be limited to one paragraph. 
\end{abstract} 
 
\section{GENERAL FORMATTING INSTRUCTIONS} 
 
Papers are in 2 columns with the overall line width of 6.75~inches (41~picas). 
Each column is 3.25~inches wide (19.5~picas).  The space between the 
columns is .25~inches wide (1.5~picas).  The left margin is 1~inch
(6~picas).  Use 10~point type with a vertical spacing of 11~points. 
Times Roman is the preferred typeface throughout. 
 
Paper title is 16~point, caps/lc, bold, centered between 2~horizontal 
rules.  Top rule is 4~points thick and bottom rule is 1~point thick. 
Allow 1/4~inch space above and below title to rules.  
 
Authors' names are centered, initial caps.  The lead author's name is 
to be listed first (left-most), and the Co-authors' names (if 
different address) are set to follow.  If only one  
co-author, center both the author and co-author, side-by-side. 
 
One-half line space between paragraphs, with no indent. 
 
\section{FIRST LEVEL HEADINGS} 
 
First level headings are all caps, flush left, bold and in point size 
12. One line space before the first level heading and 1/2~line space 
after the first level heading. 
 
\subsection{SECOND LEVEL HEADING} 
 
Second level headings must be flush left, all caps, bold and in point 
size 10. One line space  
before the second level heading and 1/2~line 
space after the second level heading. 
 
\subsubsection{Third Level Heading} 
 
Third level headings must be flush left, initial caps, bold, 
and in point size 10.  
One line space before the third level heading and 1/2~line space after 
the third level heading. 
 
\vskip .5pc 
Fourth Level Heading 
 
Fourth level headings must be flush left, initial caps and Roman 
type.  One line space before the fourth level heading and 1/2~line 
space after the fourth level heading. 
 
\subsection{CITATIONS, FIGURES, REFERENCES} 

 
\subsubsection{Citations in Text} 
 
Citations within the text should include the author's last name and 
year, e.g., (Cheesman 1985). Reference style should follow the style 
that you are used to using, as long as the citation style is 
consistent. 
 
\subsubsection{Footnotes} 
 
Indicate footnotes with a number\footnote{Sample of the first 
footnote} in the text. Use 8 point type for footnotes.
Place the footnotes at the
bottom of the page  on which they appear. 
Precede the footnote with a 0.5 point horizontal
rule  1~inch (6~picas) long.\footnote{Sample of the second footnote}  
 
\subsubsection{Figures}  
 
All artwork must be centered, neat, clean, and legible.  All lines 
should be very dark for purposes of reproduction and art work should 
not be hand-drawn.  Figure number and caption always appear 
below the figure.  Leave 2 line spaces
between the figure and the caption. The figure caption is initial caps and 
each figure numbered consecutively. 
 
Make sure that the figure caption does not get separated from the 
figure. Leave extra white space at the bottom of the page rather than 
splitting the figure and figure caption. 
\begin{figure}[h] 
\vspace{1in} 
\caption{Sample Figure Caption} 
\end{figure} 
 
\subsubsection{Tables} 
 
All tables must be centered, neat, clean, and legible. Do not use 
hand-drawn tables. Table number and title always appear above the 
table. 
See Table~\ref{sample-table}. 
 
One line space before the table title, one line space after the table 
title, and one line space after the table. The table title must be 
initial caps and each table numbered consecutively. 
 
\begin{table}[h] 
\caption{Sample Table Title}

\begin{center} 
\begin{tabular}{ll} 
\multicolumn{1}{c}{\bf PART}  &\multicolumn{1}{c}{\bf DESCRIPTION} \\ 
\hline \\ 
Dendrite         &Input terminal \\ 
Axon             &Output terminal \\ 
Soma             &Cell body (contains cell nucleus) \\ 
\end{tabular} 
\end{center} 
\end{table}

\subsubsection{Identification}  
 
Make certain that your name is typed or written on the back of every 
page of your masters, and number pages sequentially. This information 
is for identification only. Final page numbers will be assigned by the 
publisher. If you have preferred wording for the abbreviation of a long running
head,  please include this when you send your paper.  
 
\subsubsection*{Acknowledgements} 
 
Use unnumbered third level headings for the acknowledgements.  All 
acknowledgements go at the end of the paper. 
 
 
\subsubsection*{References} 
 
References follow the acknowledgements.  Use unnumbered third level 
heading for the references.  Any choice of citation style is acceptable 
as long as you are consistent.
