This is the abstract of my paper.


\section{Introduction}

Here is my introduction text.  There are 2 blank lines before the section 
heading and one afterwards.  
I may want a numbered subsection, which is done as follows.

\subsection{Previous Work}
In subsections there is 1 blank line before the section heading and one 
afterwards.  Paragraphs are indented one 
pica.  There is no blank line between paragraphs.

For those of you new to \LaTeX, you may have to run
the latex process twice to allow all references to be resolved
(if you are using numbered equations or bibliography items, which
are not described here). You
will get a warning about a missing .aux file.  Just rerun latex and it
will be ok.

\section{Summary and Conclusions}
This template will get you through the minimum article, i.e. no figures
or equations.  To include those, please refer to your \LaTeX manual.
Good Luck!

This template does not use automatic citations.  You may do them
like this (Author 1987) or see your \LaTeX manual.  You may wish
to use BibTeX; the ``apalike'' style has been suggested.

The following works using TeXtures on a Macintosh, to include
an encapsulated postscript file created in S-Plus.  Just remove the
comment marks at the beginning of the lines
and change the sizes of the figure.  It will appear at the top of the
next page.
