How to scrape text for regular expressions

parsetext.py

import re
import csv
import glob

fc = open('signers.csv','w')
c = csv.DictWriter(fc,["Name","Chamber","Number","Year Filename"])
c.writeheader()

# I used the pdftotext utility to convert the pdf documents
# Look here for details: http://www.bluem.net/en/mac/packages/

allnames = glob.glob('*.txt')

for fname in allnames:
    f = open(fname)

    for l in f:
        m = re.match("([0-9]+\.)?(.*)\(([A-Z])-([0-9]*)\)",l)
        if m:
            record = dict()
            record["Name"] = m.group(2).strip()
            record["Chamber"] = m.group(3)
            record["Number"] = m.group(4)
            record["Year Filename"] = fname
            c.writerow(record)
    f.close()

fc.close()
