OCHSNER HEIR SPURNS GIRL, 16
Oakland Oil Scion Refuses to See Stowaway From Honolulu Teresa Briston, the 16 year old Honolulu girl who thumbed her way across the Pacific because of her love for Johnny Ochsner, heir to a $2,000,000 oil fortune, re- ceived two very cold shoulders yesterday upon her arrival in Oakland. Cold shoulder No. 1, was from the dark and handsome Johnny, who said, “naturally, I’m not go. ing to see her.”
MOTHER BITTER.
Cold shoulder No. 2 came from Johnny’s mother, Mrs. Hilda Carling Ochsner of 802 York Street, Oakland, who was bitterly emphatic when she said, “she hasn’t been here and if she comes she won’t get in. She’s just gold digger.” Teresa, who says she will soon be a mother, arrived in Oakland by train from Los Angeles, She was forced to sit up all night. She traveled as a stowaway from Honolulu to Los Angeles aboard the Matson liner, Matsonia.
This is the second time Johnny, the loving sailor, has been the target of pursuit by a stowaway. He was followed to Hawaii by Marguerita Faye Human, an Oakland taxi dancer.
ONLY BOY.
“Johnny’s the only boy T’ve been in love with,” Teresa In- sisted on arrival in Oakland. “He never has proposed to me but I sure wish he had.” From the attitude of Mrs. Ochs. ner it would appear that the only person Teresa will get to see is the Ochsner attorney. Johnny is now stationed at Camp Shoemaker, near Livermore, but was at the family home in Oakland yesterday on leave.
