BBC World Service - Newshour, Rescuers Scramble to Find Survivors of Indonesian Quake

Survivors give dramatic accounts of the Sulawesi quake and tsunami

Also in the programme: a key referendum on Macedonia's name fails to muster enough votes and we take a look at films that glorified the seedier side to US college life in the 1980s
