Like her country, Sinnathambi Jeevatharsini is beauty torn. Just 9 years old, she has long black hair tied up in two loose knots on either side of her head, and a smile that explodes across her face, as if someone has switched on a spotlight. She's smart, too, likes social studies best, and especially learning about different cultures in far-off lands.

Celiento, 50, seems perfectly cast to play the part of policeman in this pulsating Mediterranean city: quick-witted and classically handsome, with salt-and-pepper hair, mirrored sunglasses and a well-pressed blue uniform. But he's not cracking Mob cases.

Outside the jurisprudence department of the University of Naples, law student Nino Danilo, 21, says he never wears a helmet--and not only because it ruins his hair. "You feel more free without it," he says. And when he sees a policeman, he does his best to scoot away. "Rules," he says, "are made to be broken, right?"
