and two airmen missing.
In announcing the losses, the
U.S. Command acknowledged that'
86 jets had been downed over the
North, with 96 airmen missing
since the resumption of full-scale
bombing last April 6.
The stepped-up action on two

Tien Phuoc, 40 miles south of Da

ALL STUDENTS PAYING
NON-RESIDENT TUITION
There is now pending in the Washtenaw County Circuit Court a class suit on
behalf of all students of the University of Michigan who ore U.S. citizens and who
have paid non-resident tuition to the University of Michigan since March 1, 1972.
The title of the case is Brian J. Hays, et al v Regents of the University of Michigan,
File No. 6400.
If you are a U.S. citizen paying non-resident tuition to the University of Mich-
igan, your rights may be affected. If the Plaintiffs win, you may be entitled to a re-
fund of the difference between the resident and ron-resident tuition, less costs of
suit. If the Plaintiffs lose, any claim you.may have for tuition refunds basec on con-
stitutional grounds may be barred by the doctrine of res judic-ta. You have, therefore,
a very real financial interest in the outcome of this suit.
Under the court rules of Michigan, you may independently petition to intervene
in the law suit or take such other action as may be appropriate. Inaction on your part
could be construed by the Court as acquiesence in the present Plaintiffs' conduct of
the litigation.
The Plaintiffs who have sponsored this notice may be contacted for further in-
