Original Toronto Star caption: Super salesman: Smooth as silk and heir to the inner sanctum through his nurturing in a baseball family, Peter Bavasi had the role of selling a baseball team without the baseball in a hungry market. He succeeded in packing the park with fans anxious to see major league baseball, even if the only players good enough were on the visiting teams.

Super hot dog salesman is Manfred Doblinger president of VS services Ltd., which sold nearly one million hot dogs at Exhibition stadium last year. He may get permission to sell beer this summer but he's not too enthusiastic about the idea. It would be expensive, and - horros - cut down hot dog sales.
