Now she doesn't want to forget The Salina high school teenager Jived with an Italian family from July 7 to Aug. 26 in Milano, an industrial city of two million population. She was one of 22 American students in Italy, and of a total of 700 in Europe for the summer American Field Service exchange program. She is the daughter of Mr.

and Mrs. Harold Urbanek, 736 Morningside Drive. "My family was Papa, Mania, my two sisters, Betta, 18, and Chiara, 13, and the dog, Nichi," Becky reports. Only One Knew English "Betta was the only one who knew any English so I learned Italian to get around and it all the time. "I'd planned to take Spanish this year, but was afraid it would destroy my Italian and changed to the individual study project." That project is to write a history of Rome and do part of it in Italian.

Becky's Italian "father" is a technician in histiology at a neurological hospital, "the most important one in He studies brain tissue. "I just led a normal Italian life," she reports, "ate spaghetti, played tennis, and helped at home and with the cooking and shopping, just like my sisters. "Down the street, my aunt and uncle had a typical Italian grocery store. Supermarkets "We went shopping there once or twice a day because there are no big supermarkets, except maybe one or two in the big city. "All the stores are small and Do you need another em- ploye?

Second were Mrs. Carl Reese and James Harris with 815. C. G. Me- Cargar and Danji Shrh were tliird with Senior citizens, be warned.

E. H. Hagan, head of the Salina Social. Security office which! serves 11 counties, said he has been advised -of untrue sales "gimmicks" involving the new medicare insurance for the elderly. Frank Sullivan, state commissioner of insurance, also has issued a warning.

Hagan emphasized that all Social Security representatives who call on persons carry identification cards. "sales" "They don't 'sell' the medical insurance," be said, "and we don't want anybody sending us any money at all. "No money will be collected until July 1966, when the med- icare program takes effect. "There is no truth to the misrepresentations that advance payments arc necessary or will earn the citizen a discount." Hagan said as soon as application forms arrive, ho will schedule information meetings. Until then, he can accept a limited number of applications for medicare from persons over 65 not now receiving Social Security benefits.

Persons over 65 who receive Social Security benefits will be taken care of through other procedures. The state insurance commis sioner warned that citizens over age 65 are being told by some persons to cancel or change private health insurance programs now. "Don't cancel or change your hospital insurance program yon now have," Sullivan states. "The medicare health provisions of the Social Security iaw give no protection whatsoever until July, 1966." He asked citizens to report immediately to his office in To- pcka if they are asked by any one to sign up early for med icare to get a discount in payments. He urged anyone interested in medicare to call at the loca Social Security office, questions relating lo coverage benefits by private health inEiirance com pany should be referred lo Sullivan.

Rich Food Put 13 Pounds On Her But BecScy Loved Life In Italy Becky Urbanek kind of specialty stores, "You get the feeling of quality." Bocky said the family visited their rich and poor relatives during her stay. They also camped out for two weeks, swimming in the sea, sunbathing and eating outdoors. In the evenings, the family members walked up and down the street and talked with their friends, who were doing the same thing. "Across the street from our home," said the Salinan, "there was a place for Italian games and tennis. We had to go with our parents if it was night.

We'd have ice cream and talk. "On the weekends, we might go for a drive to one of the beautiful lakes around. "Father played a saxophone in the neighborhood band in a central park, very classical music. He'd wave and be excited when his family came to hear him. "There would be a big audience.

Italians love music and art, really appreciate it." Becky saw places such as Pisa, including the Leaning Tower; Rome, Florence and many other historical sights. "My family and I saw more in two months than most Italians see in 10 she said. A Country Of Extremes "Italy is a. country of extremes. We saw very modern and very poor cities.

The countryside i mountains, plains and seas." Becky discovered the people of Italy are "very emotional, yelling about nothing, very happy, then very mad. "Just the fact that I lived with an Italian family and was so close with them," she said, "is something I know will be with me all my life. "I'd love to have my Italian family come here to visit." She said everyone was "just great" to her, and took the responsibility of looking after a girl away from home very seriously. Her father wouldn't even let her go every time Betta went out for an evening. "They were so excited when I first got there," Becky said.

"One of the first they did was put me on (he scales. When I left, they put me on the scales and were so happy I'd gained 13 pounds." On their trips, she discovered Mama was "a great back seat driver" and Papa "sometimes took wrong turns and had to go Whether they were visiting poor or rich relatives, she said, all the family would gather to eat and talk and meet' the "new She stayed in homes with marble tile floors, which the average middle class home uses because it is so common. She also stayed with "grandparents' 1 in a small home with no hot water. U.S. Lags In Styles The Salinan learned her clothes were five years behind in style "because the styles start in France and Viet Nam and the Los Angeles were in" the newspapers, but only the Italian men "talk "Most of the Italians seemed to be for America in Viet Nam Becky said.

"But some of the things happening in this coun try made them wonder bow we can have a democracy and still have these problems." While in Rome, Becky was excited to stand only 10 or 20 feet from the Pope during a mass audience. He greeted the AFS'ers, who were there in a group, and other groups. It was hard to leave her Italian friends in more ways than one. Nearly Straaded The AFS'ers nearly were stranded when the storms and floods hit Italy. "We left our Italian homes on Aug.

26," Becky said, "and all met in Ancona on the Adriatic sea. "We stayed with different families there to get used not living with our 'own' family. "Then we left Ancona on Aug. 31 and went to Rome. All this time it was pouring down rain, but we had no idea it was getting serious.

"Originally, we were to leave Rome on Aug. 4 for Milano where we would take the plane for home. Only One "But we left by bus Aug. 3 and at that time there was only one road out of Rome. We crossed washed out bridges on boards laid over the broken sections." The AFS bus reached Milano safely, and there was another round of goodbyes for Becky and her family before the final departure.

"Right now everything is such a dream," Becky said. "It was a wonderful summer and I'm a fortunate person."
