There went the made-in-gossip-columns engagement of Playboy Pitcher Bo Belinsky, 26, and Picture Playgirl Mamie Van Doren, 30.

After talking for more than an hour one morning last week Van Doren arose and went over to the window, which overlooks the Charles, the Business School, and other local phenomena...
Perhaps all that Van Doren had been trying to say about the course, literature, and life came clear in those reactions. He lives with a great sense of personal discovery. He becomes excited about books, horses, about sunshine as if it were all new to him, even new to the world.
