SMOKING OUT THE OPPOSITION Lawyers for the American Tobacco Co. were granted a subpoena for the membership list of a computer network used by anti-smoking groups. The move to acquire SCARCNet's (Smoking Control Advocacy Resource Network) records is believed to be the first legal action of this kind. The subpoena also demands the names of those funding the network and copies of all posted strategy sessions. Attorneys for the Advocacy Institute have filed papers seeking to deny the subpoena on First Amendment grounds. (Wall Street Journal 3/30/94 B1)
