Arab Asiatic Bloc To Bring Tunisia Problem To UN
Paris—(U.P.)The 15-nation Arab-Asiatic bloc said today it would bring the festering Tunisian situation before the United Nations Security council.
Syrian delegate to the UN Ahmad Shukairy announced the decision to raise in the Security Council the dispute between the French government and Tunisian nationalists which has resulted in 70 deaths in riots since Jan.16.
Despite the representations, he said, "The situation in Tunisia continues to deteriorate and has in fact been aggravated."
Shukaira noted that the Arab-Asia bloc had made representations to the presidents of the General Assembly and the Security Council on the "grave situation" in Tunisia without effect.
It was assumed that the complaint would demand Security Council action on the ground that the Tunisian dispute is a threat to international peace.
Dockmen Return
Chicago—(U.P.)-AFL dockmen returned to work today at Chicago's 650 freight docks after accepting a 31-cent hourly wage boost from major midwestern shipping firms.
Acceptance of the increase Sunday night ended a three-day strike which had tied up critical freight shipments throughout the Midwest.
The hourly wage increase is to be reflected in a shortened work week. The average rate for 40 hours work which jumps their hourly rate from $1.55 to $1.86.
Wage stabilization laws permit only 18 cents of the increase without special approval.
Crew Rescued
Ocracoke, N.C.—(U.P.)—Crewmembers of the motorship Miget, grounded and breaking up in a howling Atlantic storm, rode a lifeboat through a pounding surf to a safe landing on tiny Portsmouth island near here today.
The 26-member crew abandoned the stricken vessel at 2:55 am. on order of skipper Dudolgh Tanden, of Melford, N.J., after the coast guard made several futile attempts to reach the vessel which had been driven aground by a freak storm.
Armistice Closer
Pamunjum, Korea—(U.P.)—Allied and Communist truce negotiators have "moved closer to an armistice ... within the foreseeable future" in the last few days, the chief United Nations command spokesman said today.
In today's talks the true delegates neared final agreement on an exchange of war prisoners.
They also arranged a plenary session of the full truce delegations for 7 p.m. Tuesday CST, to start discussion of the final item on the armistice program — recommendations to be made to the belligent governments for a final peace settlement.
Harold Ickes Dies
Washington—(U.P.)—Harold L Ickes received in death today what he never asked and seldom got in life —a lot of kind words.
The "old curmudgeon," who was Secretary of the Interior for 13 years, died last night (at 6:25 p.m. EST) in emergency hospital. He had been suffering from arthritis for 77-year-old heart finally gave out.
President Truman, who once felt the last of Ickes' sharp tongue, was one of the first to pay tribute to the outspoken New Dealer who was known, in admiration rather than irony, as "Honest Harold."
"Although he was often irascible and could be intolerant of the opinions of others," Mr. Truman said, "his sharpest critics never doubted hins integrity . . . he was a true patriot and a many-sided citizen whose passing leaves a void in our national life not easily filled."
McCarthy Replies
Washington—(U.P.)-Sen. Joseph R McCarthy challenged President Truman today to show where he misquoted a "single word" of what he said were FBI reports about presidential assistant. Philleo Nash.
In a recent speech, McCarthy read to the Senate what purported to be FBI reports accusing Nash of having had Communist connections. Nash denounced the charge as a "contemptible lie."
At his press conference last week Mr. Truman denounced McCarthy as a pathological character assassin.
In a telegram to Mr. Truman Sunday night, McCarthy told the President "merely to call me names . . . not to answer question" to his senate speech.

'Biggest Man In Radio'
By WILLIAM F. STANFILL
'Hillbilly Clyde Lovellette' Radio Show Heard Over WREN On Saturdays
"Hillbilly Clyde Lovellette" KU All-American, became the biggest man in radio" at 7 p.m. Saturday when he took to the air waves of radio station WREN in the first of his regularly scheduled Saturday night disc jockey shows.
The program, the Hillbilly Clyde show which describes Lovette as a hi-fi showman in radio*, is a hip-hop recordings book featuring popular hillbilly recordings.
The show was originated by Lo-vellette and Clark Akers, a journalism senior. All script for the show is written by Akers. The program is sponsored by a Topeka sports store.
The idea for the show came to Lovellette and Akers when they received a class assignment in radio speaking. Students of the class were required to originate a 15-minute sports or disc jockey variety show.
A 15-minute Hilbilly Clyde show was worked up for the class. Everyone thought the show was good so the two expanded it to 30 minutes. When that version was smoothed out Lovellette made a tape recording of the show.
Akers, who is in the advertising sequence of journalism, said writing the commercials and script for the show might give him an opportunity to work directly into radio advertising after he is graduated.
Max Falkenstein, WREN sports announcer, listened to the tape recording and thought it was good enough to rate a sponsor. Soon after the audition Lovellette and Akers had one.
The Skyline club, night time hangout of KU students, was raided by the sheriff Saturday night. The night spot has been temporarily closed pending investigation. The raid followed a number of complaints of a disturbance from patrons, passersby and residents of the area. No students were arrested.
Skyline Closed Following Raid
They receive no compensation for writing or producing the show. Lo-vellette said that he plans to go into radio work after graduation and that the experience the show will provide for him will probably help him considerably.
