Hanoi aims to surge 325th division into Hue battle
U S officials report Hanoi plans to move the 325th North Vietnamese division from Laos to join three others in attacking Hue amid the seven week South Vietnam offensive. The battle for Hue could determine the war's outcome as the North Vietnamese deploy large tank forces and press a long, brutal fight. Senior officers warn the ARVN leadership has improved but doubt a major counterattack is assured.

Forsyth School Plan Is Argued in Federal Court
A federal judge heard the Winston-Salem Forsyth County Board of Education proposal to run eight all white and eight all Negro elementary schools next year. Plaintiffs objected as the 16 schools are now integrated with Negro enrollment 18 to 30 percent. The plan would revert to pre 1971 72 conditions. Board lawyers say 351 buses would drop by 100 and bus miles by 4200 daily reducing riders by about 4000. Judge Gordon took the case under advisement with a decision in weeks.
