Central 772-601 Rome - My friend Loni, a young Dutch Btudenl sculp tress from Amsterdam, is s dedicated and devoted Amcri cophilc, if I ever met one Everything in, for and about the States is better far, than anything in, for and about Italy-Rome, In particular. As Loni is lull, blonde, and dresses in American clothes she is often taken for an American-until she opens her mouth. She attends St. Paul's Episcopal church, belongs to the American Women's club, reads English newspapers and periodicals, and chooses her friends from among the Amer ican colony, Loni claims she can identify without fall any American on the Via Vcneto. For instance, American men she can recog nize because they have such lufly bik feet," and such botiful schusscs." (This in contrast, she is insinuating, to the rather small .feel and pointed shoes of (lie Roman men.) She prefers American men's trousers with cuffs rath er than the Italian "pantalon" without. She likes American haircuts, especially crew cuts, and she thinks (hut American men have better hair, and are more distinguished if Ihey have lost their hair than Ital ian bald men are. Occasionally she slips, and I win a bet, in her identifica tion of American girls and women whose dress is more uniform. But there arc certain differences this season. The American girls have simpler, less high-styled hairdress than the average Italian girl; their figures are slraiglitor. and they do not lend to undulate in walking. American girls still wear high pencil heels and pointed toes in the eve ning and "dais" in Ihc day time. And here Is really a vari ance. Italians have discarded the pointed for a shorter and almost square toe, and the pencil heel for a curious, squatty tat heel, not too un like the shape of an hourglass. A plethora of sandals clip clnn throughout Home this summer. Such sandals! Glor iously exciting and lavishly bedecked. Jewel decorated. Rubies, emeralds, sapphires and opals are on strands, in clusters, on fancy pins. Decor ation on toes, bows, fringes, guld and silver braids. No two pairs alike. Cleopatra and her handmaidens could have had nothing more splendid than sandals in Rome 19A2. And they clip-clop up and down and up, rythmirally on girls, a few of whom can wear them gracefully. So much for dress. Eating habits are as telltale as any thing about the foreigner-lhe American-in Europe. If you cannot see feet, you can tell an American, as far as you can see a fork in his hand. Emily Post tells us to do one thing and everybody else does it differently. Europeans use the fork with the lines down, and they do nol change from one hand to another. The grasp of both fork and knife is different. Europeans drink wine and beer with their meals. Al though water, in all places that Americans would fre quent, is good, the average Italian drinks mineral water instead. He dilutes his wine with it. In all probability most Europeans have never heard of Ihc custom of drinking cof fee with a mcal-excepting breakfast coffee which they share with milk, mils and marmalade. Many an Ameri can tourist, who innocently orders juice, or an egg, is mys tified that his breakfast costs less than (he extra. Coffee is an after-dinner affair-served in little cups. In a private home they drink it in tile salon, never al the table. Those dining at one restaurant otten go lo another one for coffee. European desserl is usually fruit and cheese. Although ice cream and sweets are popular. they are more oltcn eaten at cafes and bars than al meal time. They are all out of step but Jim. More of this u'er.
