Before long, vacationing Jacqueline Kennedy and Daughter Caroline were settled in Villa Sangro, the 11th century house rented by Sister Lee Radziwill, and then it was off to the beach. Jackie whizzed out into the choppy bay behind an Italian navy speedboat, holding Caroline on the water skis ahead of her. It was great sport for 100 yards-until mother...
