Stephenson yesterday had on file In tha Superior Court a suit for divorce against Edward Leo Stephenson, a civil engineer. Stephenson not only danced with other women while his wife watched from her stand by the wall, but he caused his mate much embarrassment by putting his arms around hla various partners, according to the complaint.
