1965 Press Photo Mary Oppenheimer Marries In Johannesburg

Miss Mary Oppenheimer Marries In Johannesburg: Miss Mary Oppenheimer 21, year-old daughter of the Gold and Diamond King Mr. Harry Oppenheimer was married today in Johannesburg to Gordon Waddell 29, the Son of a wealthy Glosgow Stockbroker. The wedding reception of South Africa's richest heiress was to have been a Multi-Racial occasion as her father and herself are both opposed to apartheid. But the family fear that they may get into trouble with the Government so they called it of and had All White Guests at the reception. Photo shows The Bride and Groom leaving the Church after the Wedding this afternoon.
