Connecticut Woman Divorce "Fan"
Who Followed Clubs
About

Stamford, Conn.-Mrs. Mildred
Cohn of Noroton, Conn, obtained a
divorce from her husband, Edwin e.
Cohn, because, she said, she had been
supplanted in his affection by the
American league.
Edwin, she alleged, just wouldn't
stay at home when the baseball sea-
son opened but spent his time and
money in travelling about the country
with various teams. He left her at
home, she says.
In 1915, she charged, he disappeared
entirely. The only way she could
trace him, she continued, was by writ
ing to various big league managers
he knew and asking them If they'd
seen Edwin. Connie Mack Of the Ath-
letics, replied to her query that he
had and the exasperated Mrs. Coin
brought suit for divorce.
