xsl:sort problem

Hello everybody,

I am having a problem trying to use xsl:sort.  Here is the XSL code giving me problems

<xsl:template match='PEOPLE'>
     <xsl:for-each select='PERSON'>
          <TR>
               <xsl:apply-templates>
	        <xsl:sort select='LAST_NAME'/>
	   </xsl:apply-templates>
          </TR>
     </xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match='PERSON'>
     <TD><xsl:value-of select='FIRST_NAME'/></TD>
     <TD><xsl:value-of select='LAST_NAME'/></TD>
     <TD><xsl:value-of select='BIRTH_DATE'/></TD>
</xsl:template>

When I try to load my XML file I get the following error:

Keyword xsl:apply-templates may not contain xsl:sort. 

I don't understand.  Everywhere I look it says that xsl:sort can be contained in xsl:for-each and xsl:apply-templates.  So, what's the problem?

Thanks for any help,

Danny
