The interstellar environment close to the high latitude molecular cloud Lynds 1569 (L1569, Lynds 1962), also known as MBM 18 (Magnani, Blitz and Mundy, 1985), has been analyzed by Penrase et al. (1990) and Penrase (1993). Their observations of the CH, CH+, and CN molecular features, are consistent with a region having a high molecular and reduced dust content. They also observed the background star HD 24263- located 8 degrees far from the center of L1569 - reporting a CH rich line of sight and the presence of two intervening clouds from a sodium lines spectra. The infrared excess which has been revealed by the IRAS survey at 12 microns might suggest the presence of PAH's molecules, the well know candidate for the Unidentified Infrared Bands and Diffuse Interstellar Bands. This interesting scenario led to the investigation of the behavior of the diffuse interstellar bands toward HD 25137, which is supposed to be a background object for L1569 (Penrase et al., 1990); as well as the field star HD 24263. As part of a wider observational program devoted to study the HLC's special environments, the observations of the diffuse interstellar bands (DIB's) at 5780 and 5797 lambda lambda in the direction of the two above mentioned stars, HD 24263 and HD 25137 are presented here.
