From Associated Press reports
WASHINGTON Two Navy F-14 jet
fighters from the aircraft carrier Eisenhower
had a head-on encounter Tuesday with two Li
byan warplanes over the Gulf of Sidra, the
Pentagon said.
The libyan MIG-23s turned to avoid colli
sion, then descended and headed for shore, a
Pentagon spokesman said.
No weapons were fired, the spokesman told
reporters. .
The interception recalled the Aug. 19, 1981
affair in which two Navy jets shot down two
Libyan SU-2 warplanes over the gulf, which is
claimed by Libya and considered international
waters by the United States. .
WASHINGTON Domestic poverty last
year reached its highest level since 1565, the
government reported Tuesday, and the White
House said President Reagan plans to appoint
a bipartisan task force to make a "no-holds-barred
study" of hunger in America.
The Census Bureau said 34.4 million Ameri
cans, or 15 percent of the population, fell
below the poverty level in 1982. The govern
ment officially calculates poverty-level income
at $9,862 a year for a family of four.
WASHINGTON Democrats on the Sen
ate Foreign Relations Committee, led by presi
dential hopeful Alan Cranston, failed to force
a vote Tuesday on a House-passed resolution
calling for a nuclear weapons freeze.
By a 9-8 margin on a parliamentary ques
tion, cast along party lines, the Republican
dominated panel blocked the vote that Cran
ston and other Democrats were seeking. .
Cranston, D-Calif., charged that the
Republicans were "unwilling to stand up and
be counted on the issue of the freeze."
Sen. Jesse Helms, R-N.C, leading the op
position to a committee vote on the freeze,
suggested the backers of the resolution were
politically motivated, saying "If the television
cameras were not here, we wouldn't even be
meeting."
WASHINGTON The House passed
333-50 on Tuesday a bill designating the Jan.
15 anniversary of the birth of Dr. Martin
Lather King Jr. as a national holiday to honor
"a person who shook the moral con
science of this nation."
The holiday would be observed on the third
Monday of January, and would be the
nation's 10 legal holiday. King was born Jan.
15, 1929. ,.
His widow, Coretta Scott King, said in At
lanta that she was "pleased and encouraged"
by the House vote and hopes the Senate "will
move as swiftly and responsibly."

and began thorough checks of its systems in
preparation for the first nighttime launch of a
shuttle Aug. 3, - ;
The five-member crew will -include astro
naut Guion S. Bluford, the first black to go
into space.
The spacecraft, coupled to its rust-brown
external tank and twin rocket boosters, rolled

WILMINGTON Former Columbus
County Commissioner Ed Walton WCiamson
testified Tuesday that he asked state Sen. R.C
Soles, D-Columbus, to help two FBI agents
with a Uquor-by-the-drink referendum because
the agents were giving him financial help.
"I told Soles they wanted help on the deal
. , .because they (the agents) were helping me
financially," Williamson said.
Williamson, who is serving a 10-year prison
sentence for racketeering, , took the stand
Tuesday in Soles' trial on charges of political
- corruption after attorneys completed more .
than seven days of questioning FBI agent
Robert Drdak.
RALEIGH The current system of elect
ing state legislators should be retained, al
though blacks still suffer some forms of dis
crimination, a black member of the Wake
County School Board said Tuesday.
Vernon Malone, assistant Director of the
North Carolina State School for the Blind and
a member "of the school board since 1972, tes
tified in the U.S. District Court trial of a law
suit against a legislative district plan developed
in 1981-82. . .
A three-judge panel is n earing the second
week of testimony. The plaintiffs, a group of
black voters, claim that minority voting t
strength is diluted in large, multi-member
districts where candidates run at large. The
suit asks, that those districts be divided into
single-member districts so that blacks can be
equally represented.
Professor emeritus
dies at age of 94
Katharine Jocher, professor emeritus
of sociology and anthropology and an
original member of the Institute for
Research in Social Sciences at the Univer
sity of North Carolina at Chapel Hill,
died Tuesday. She was 94.
"In her many roles in the institute and
the Department of Sociology, she was a
central figure in the emergence of this
division of the university to its eminence,"
UNC President William C. Friday said of
Jocher. 1
"Her pioneering scholarship on
Southern regional culture, superb service
to her profession and leadership at the In
stitute for Research in Social Science
helped lay the foundation upon -which
much of our university's high national
stature in social sciences now rests," said
Sociology Chairman John D. Kasarda.
Between 1927 and 1961, Jocher was
editor of Social Forces, one of three ma
jor sociology journals. She served as the
first woman president of the Southern
Sociology Society between 1942 and
1944.
