      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.

      Clare and Bob Duck run Bob's Truck Stop in Campbellville for men who drove cross-country trucks, not for tourists. It's good, plain, solid food cooked to keep a trucker satisfied for the next 300 miles. Mrs. Duck says. Tourists tend to eat lighter foods like salads. Duck is a mechanic and worked in the Arctic for 13 years, taking supplies in by cat train. They opened the restaurant in January.
