Re: Bradley, et al., v. Milliken,
et al., No. 72-1809-14

Dear Mr. Higgins:
I would like to call your attention to what 

is apparently an error at page 68 of the Slip op. of 
June 12, 1973. The fourth full paragraph reads as fol­
lows :

We vacate the order of March 28, 1972 
entitled "Ruling on Propriety of a Metro­
politan Remedy to Accomplish Desegrega­
tion of the Public Schools of Detroit."

That order is dated March 24, 1972. See, Joint Appendix, 
Vol. I B, page la 439-la 443.

There is an order dated March 28, 1972, en­
titled "Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law" on 
Detroit only plans of desegregation, and that date is 
correctly referred to on page 69 of the Slip op. lines 
11, 12 and 13.

Very truly yours,

Louis R. Lucas
