Vogel's Case Baffles Police In Stamford Theft Tale
Paul Vogel was captured near Stamford after a chase by car and train. He claimed to be the son of L B Vogel, a New York cloak and suit maker, and said he sought to marry his fiancée rather than attend Yale. He admitted stealing clothing from Max Blumberg, lodging at 745 Myrtle Avenue, and hiring a taxi from J Harvey Russell. He told reporters a path from Mt Morris School to Yale, then to London for boat races, and that he tied up his plans by using an alias P F Reid to keep his parents from tracing him. Police are weighing his story as they seek further facts.
