I've only just started but "pulling" doesn't fit with my 12a (fool -5 letters, lose the last letter + 2 letters for text/script)

Am 90% finished, but the last few are giving me grief - wondering if I've gone wrong somewhere...
9 D. Bass part, as above, with interruption (10) ?o?ti?u?u?
34 A. Confederacy members at bays (6)c?ee?s
Would welcome any advice - even if it's just to point out any errors. Thanks.

Have now got an answer for 9 Down,not sure how it relates to the clue, but I might just settle for it!

Chips - If you look up the obvious word in the dictionary (don't want to give it yet) you will find it as an alternative meaning, also - i.e. 34ac . 9d I haven/t got yet, - I have the same letters as you - there seem to be only 2 words that fit that pattern, and I can't see the wordplay in either of them

Nearly finished despite some questionable clues, but I'm feverishly looking for a 'sloopy' word fitting -a-d- for 19d
