Very hard sequence problem

Here is the problem setup. You have a long horizontal line with letters on top and bottom. A, E, F, H, I, K, L, M, N, V, W, X, Y, and Z, are all on top of the line. B, C, D, G, J, O, P, Q, and R, are on bottom. The letters are not stacked at all, that is there are spaces when the next letter switches sides of the line. The question is, where do the S, T, and U go? Help would be much appreciated.

T goes on the top row. S and U on the bottom row. I have used this in my book "Scientific Framework" to illustrate how scientific hypotheses are formulated.
