TEEN
Italian Teen Agers And Their "Idols"
By BETTY BETZ
Now I know I'm getting close to home! The Italian bobby soxers hang around the Excelsior hotel waiting for a glimpse of our idol, Ingrid Berg- man, who's making a picture in Italy.. The teen queens here love her simplicity and the way she doesn't wear fancy hats and jewels even though she can well afford them:
"The Hollywood stars like Rome better than Paris," proudly said Diana Infanta, who complains of the high admission price of American movies.
Recently, Myrna Loy. Alan Curtis, Orson Welles and Mr. and Mrs. Tyrone Power have been seen about Rome, but the main queen still is "forever Ingrid".

He must have also a fast and accurate throw to every base, and to perfect this gruelling, practice is necessary.
The Long Throw
The throw to second base is perhaps the most important as this is the longest throw a catcher will be called upon to make. He should therefore train himself to peg the ball across the diamond dead over second base about knee hich to enable the second base man or shortstop to lag the run-
ner with as little delay as possi-
ble.
Plays at second base are usual.
