MOVE TO SUPPRESS CRITIC INTIMATED AT NEWS STAND

Felix on Massachusetts Avenue Fears Another $100 Fine

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Movements aimed at the suppression of the Harvard Critic appeared to be under way yesterday, as Felix's newsstand on Massachusetts Avenue, was threatened with prosecution for selling the magazine. An unidentified man stopped at the stand yesterday and, after inspecting the publication, asked for the names of Harvard students connected with the Critic, and questioned Felix as to why he would sell such a magazine. The man intimated that prosecution might follow.

About five years ago Felix was hailed into court for selling a copy of The American Mercury. H. L. Mencken himself came to Cambridge to defend his production, accompanied by a battery of lawyers. Mencken lost his case and Felix was fined $100.
