he loved men, but needed money more. Marriage was simply a means to both ends, a business arrange- ment that had little to do with notions like love and romance . That's the way Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy Onassis was raised amid the Hamp-ton's horsey set - and she took her child-hood lessons to heart. \"For Jacqueline, money meant securityshe could never find in a relationship,\" saysa friend. \"Her father 'Black Jack' Bouviertaught her men were not to be trusted - socash was much more comforting to her thanany man. Guys come and go, but moneynever strays.\" CHAMPAGNE TASTES However, this doesn't mean Jackie wassecretly indifferent to her husbands, hand-some Jack Kennedy 'and Greek gnomeAristotle Onassis. She adored them. But thefact both were filthy rich was a VERY bigpart of their attraction for a socialite withchampagne tastes. Using her classic grace and smolderingsexuality as bait, the savvy siren reeled inboth big fish - while keeping other suitorson the string with practiced proficiency!

from business potentates who swooned at her size lO feet. Other women were amazed she could carry it off, insisting the \"modern geisha girl\" was no ravishing beauty! But in their book \"The Kenne- dys,\" authors Peter Collier and David Horowitz explained Jackie's allure. \"It was not as much her looks, although she made the most of her physical assets; but her man- ner that was striking: breathless and apparently naive, but capable ofruthless insights, circumspect and ladylike, yet often strong1y sexual in its over- .tones,\" they write. It was a carefully managed performance she practiced since her teens. Friends say Jackie was a relentless man-eater, who took the men she fancied . whether they were married or not. And her choice wasn't always based on the size oftheir wallet. She had a thing for big brains too! DIDN'T liKE OTHER WOMEN In the years immediately after JFK's tragic death in Dallas, Jackie made hay among intellectual power players in the late president's inner circle, ticking off all their wives - and not caring one bit! Says a pal: \" She was notorious for inviting Jack's former advisers to intimate Georgetown dinners to discuss issues of the day.- and then admonish- ing them: 'Come alone.' She didn't want the wives. She didn't like other women.\" Jackie's hostility to other gals dated back to her school days when her parents' scan- . dalous divorce and her beloved playboy father's indiscretions made her the target of catty gossip. . She handled those childhood tempests the same way she later dealt 'with JFK's affairs and the furor over her decision to become Onassis 's store-bought bride: She kept her cool and rose above it. But woe to those who crossed her! She ALWAYS got her re- venge as ex-lover Warren Beatty, his sister Shirley hapless fiance John Husted Jr. \"don't MacLaine - and others - pay attention to all the drivel you hear about me and Jack Kennedy, learned the hard way. . it doesn 't mean a thing.\" And she used the same line decades later Her father-in-law Joe when Onassis discovered her love letters to another guy!

acqueline Lee Bouvier, who the world would know simply as \"Jackie,\" learned about guys from her dapper daddy, who told her \"all men are rats!\" Dad was stockbroker John Vernou Bouvier III. He was East Coast high society, a wealthy womanizing wolf of Wall Street nicknamed \"Black Jack.\" As Jackie grew up on New York's Park Av-enue and summered in the toney Hamptons,Black Jack and his first born formed a relation-ship some say bordered on the taboo. Jackie 's pop was a boozer and a rake. He missed her wedding to JFK because he was on a bender. He gambled heavily, even losing most ofhis savings on his honeymoon cruise, where he caused a scandal trying to pick up a wealthy heiress. SKIRT-CHASING WAYS Jackie was 11 and her sister Caroline Lee, 7, when mom Janet divorced her phi- landering husband in 1940. He'd once been featured in a news photo holding hands with his mistress while Janet watched a horse show nearby! Despite dad's obvious shortcomings, a devastated Jackie blamed her mom for the breakup. The truth is, Jackie grew up admir- ing Black Jack's uncanny ability to woo women and, along the way, learned from him how to deal with the powerful- yet flawed - men she'd marry. \"Black Jack's constant refrain was 'All men are rats.'This maxim certainly helped his elder daughter get through the most turbulent periods of her life,\" Sarah Bradford writes in her book, CONTINUED ON PAGE 13 SECR ET LIFE & LOVES II JAC KI E 9

porting a smile that said he ' had the world on a string, handsome and debonair John Fitzgerald Kennedy, and society beauty Jac- queline Lee Bouvier walked down the aisle on Sept. 12, 1953-and on into history. Just seven years later, newly-elected President Kennedy and his firstlady took up residence in the WhiteHouse, with young daughter Caroline, ,and reigned symbolically as king andqueen ofAmerica's Camelot. They were so young. Kennedy was43 and Jackie was 31. America lovedthem. Women's hearts flvttered for therugged chief executive. They wantedto be Jackie, meet Jackie, wear clotheslike Jackie, and do their hair likeJackie. For the men, she was a hot first lady,a drastic difference from her frumpypredecessors Mamie Eisenhower, BessTruman and Eleanor Roosevelt. UNION OF CONVENIENCE From the outside, 1FK and Jackieseemed the perfect couple. Indeed,Jackie had a deep abiding love forKennedy, and lent her beauty, charmand intelligence to his successful cam-paign for the Oval Office.

Kennedy carried on an 18-month affair with White House intern Mimi Alford, beginning when she wasjust 19. He slept with Jackie's look-alike press secretary Pamela Turnure, and in his book, \"The Dark Side of Camelot,\" author Seymour Hersh also writes that Jack had a number of sexual encoun- ters with two young 20-something secretaries, Priscilla Wear and J,ill Cowens, known among the president's staff as \"Fiddle\" and \"Faddle.\" Jackie, arriving for a swim in the White House pool one day, nearly in- terrupted JFK fiddling and faddling with both gals in the water, accord- ing to Hersh.
