A SOLDIER MISSED
FROM Fl. RUSSELL
LAST HEARD OF IN THIS CITY
A Dcserter from Regular Army Who
Threatened to Suicide

Did Frank Pogelar commit sui
eide? That is the theory that the
local officers have been working
upon since they received commun-
ioation from the commanding officer
at Fort Russell te wdays ago with
Fogelar's picture, asking that they
locate him. as he had deserted the
army.
Two weeks ago Pogelar came to
Greeley on a three days leave of
absence to see his sweetheart. 1t
seems that the girl desired to have
nothing more to do with him and
turned him down.
The same day Pogelar came to
the Tribune Office with cock and
bull story of soldier at Fort Rus
sell who attempted to commit sui
eide because his sweetheart in Gree
ley had turned him down. He said
the soldiers name was Frank Poge-
lar and gave his own name as Frank
smith. A Tribune reporter asked
him several questions in regard to
the local girl and the suicide. The
boy contradicted himself in several
details and after he was gone the
girl was called up by telephone and
declared that the whole story was
myth and that the boy who had
been to the Tribune Office was Poge-
lar himself. She had refused his
company, and his idea no doubt was
to scare her.
Pogelar went to another local
paper, which published his story.
The father of the girl threatened to
have him arrested and he left town.

resultant vote of 80 to 20 in favor
