THE BATTALION Thursday, March 21, 1968 Page 10 College Station, Texas It’s Bo and Jo Says Belinsky LOS ANGELES <A») _ “This is true love,” said Bo Belinsky. “We’re going to be married as soon as we can.” The object of the affections of baseball’s playboy pitcher is Jo Collins, 39-24-38, once tabbed Playmate of the Year by a mag azine featuring unclad cuties. She said the marriage will be in about four months, when her pending California divorce be comes final. THE TWO discussed their ro mance in an interview at Cocoa Beach, Fla., with Bob Hunter of the Los Angeles Herald-Exam iner. Belinsky did most of the talking. It was his first interview since he vanished from the Houston Astros training camp after being suspended for breaking curfew. “For one time in mv life I played it straight and asked per mission,” said the veteran of countless curfew violations. “I started by asking for three hours and finally came down to half an hour, but “Spec” Richardson (general manager of the Astros) still said no. That’s when I packed and left.” BELINSKY, who has kept com pany with such entertainment notables as Mamie Van Doren, Tina Louise and Kay Stevens, said he met Miss Collins in Ha waii this winter while he was investigating the possibility of starting an island due ranch — “a swinging dude ranch.” Richardson has said he’ll let Belinsky stew a few days, then fine him and bring him back to camp. Bo said he’ll try to work things out, but if the Astros assign him to their Oklahoma City farm club, he’ll quit and go back to Ha waii, where he and Jo will run that ranch. “I'm in love,” he said, “and from now on it’s Bo and Jo.” Ravens Advance To JC Quarters HUTCHINSON, Kan.

English Car Sets Pace At Sebring SEBRING, Fla. t5*> — David Hobbs of England drove a Ford GT40 at record breaking speeds Thursday in the first tune-ups for Saturday’s 12-hour automo bile endurance race over the tough Sebring road course. Clocked at 112.43 miles per hour on one lap around the twist ing 5.2-mile layout, Hobbs showed again that the GT40 team from England has the speed to win if the cars can stand up for the distance. Hobbs was time at 2:46.5 in one of his laps, beating the old record of 2:48.6. AstroFacts COCOA, Fla. — Will Hal King become another John Roseboro? According to Houston Astros manager Grady Hatton he just might be. “This boy King sure reminds you of Roseboro,” said Hatton as he turns on a smiling face when you talk of Houston’s catching situation. King has got that same non approach to the game. “He’s got a better arm and has more power, but doesn’t have Roseboro’s speed afoot,” says Hatton. “He just may be Vetter than Roseboro when he gets a little more experience.” Roseboro is now a Minnesota Twin, but for years the highly respected backstop he d forth with the Los Angeles Dodgers. King, like Roseboro, is a Ne gro, a lefthand hitting catcher and carries a rifle for an arm. He loves to work and he loves to play baseball. ra regular grind* "Your Choice' Folger's-Shurfine Max.
