The properties of the wave function interpreted as the x/sub +/ = 0 section of the four-dimensional Bethe - Salpeter amplitade are studied. Arguments are offered in favor of the hypothesis that this light-plane wave function may closely resemble the correspending Schroedinger wave function, even in the case of strong binding. The consequences of this prescription are discussed, especially Lorentz contraction and recoil effects. It is concluded that the approach provides a useful link between the standard Bethe - Salpeter equation approach and the infinite-momentumframe parton concepts. (LBS)
