          IFCSS 5th Congress Preparation (II)

   Tentative Schedule and Airline Reserveration Information
   ========================================================



Dear fellow Chinese students and scholars:

     The major airline companies are reducing airfares as they
start summer promotion programs which will last only 1-2 weeks.
Please make your airline reservations now for the 5th Congress.
IFCSS has assigned Ambassador Square Travel as the official agency
to assist you making reservations. We have also drawn up a
tentative schedule of the 5th Congress for your reference. Please
note that you may leave Lexington Monday morning (July 5).

     Thanks for your cooperation.
