Part II). Part I must be filled out as completely as pos-
sible for each project or event. Part II should be filled

out the forms. Please follow the instructions exactly. This
will enable the BINET operators to key punch the information
into the system directly from these forms.
If possible, please submit this form through your State Bicen-
tennial organization for its knowledge and approval, and sub-
mission to BINET. If this is not possible, please send them
a courtesy copy.

but strongly encouraged so as to include as much information
as possible. Please do not exceed the number of spaces given
on the form for such items.
