AUSA [Assistant US Attorney], San Francisco, based on statements of [deleted name] advised he is in the process of preparing subpoena in the name of [deleted name] to appear FGJ [federal grand jury], San Francisco, possibly on December 5, 1978. Subpoena will also be issued to include material records, etc., re PT.

Dallas discreetly verify employment and attempt to ascertain residence and activities but not to take any action that would tend to alert or scare off witness.
