D.A. Will Review 'Poon Case Today

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Middlesex District Attorney George A. Thompson said yesterday that he will confer with the Lampoon's legal council today, presumably to discuss possible Grand Jury action against the Lampoon's parody of mid-western college humor magazines, The Pontoon.

On November 1, Judge Arthur P. Stone '93, denied issuance by police of a complaint against the magazine in East Cambridge Third District Court, but, at the same time, he labeled the Pontoon "filthy, obscene, and licentious." He gave to the District Attorney the option of dismissing the case or taking Grand Jury action.

Joseph H. B. Edwards, co-council for the magazine with Joseph A. Deguglielmo '29, yesterday said he had not been informed of the planned conference with the District Attorney.
